$A$ man wishes to estimate the distance of a nearby tower from him. He stands at a point $A$ in front of the tower $C$ and spots a very distant object $O$ in line with $AC$. He then walks perpendicular to $AC$ up to $B$,a distance of $100 \; m$,and looks at $O$ and $C$ again. Since $O$ is very distant,the direction $BO$ is practically the same as $AO$; but he finds the line of sight of $C$ shifted from the original line of sight by an angle $\theta = 40^{\circ}$ ($\theta$ is known as 'parallax'). Estimate the distance (in $m$) of the tower $C$ from his original position $A$.
