(a) the diagram of this situation is in the image added.
(b) the distance of the house located 8 miles north on the eastern boundary of the tower is calculated by applying Pythagoras theorem.
[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2\\\\c^2 = (8)^2 + (4+ 4)^2 \\\\c^2 = (64) + (64)\\\\c^2 = 128\\\\c = \sqrt{128} \\\\c = 11.31 \ miles \ east \ of \ the \ town[/tex]
Thus, the distance of the house located 8 miles north on the eastern boundary of the tower is 11.31 miles east of the town.
