4 meters
The change in height can be calculated by subtracting the depth from the platform height.
Change in height = platform height - depth
Change in height = 10 meters - 6 meters = 4 meters.
Therefore, the change in height was 4 meters.
To find the change in height, we need to subtract the final depth from the initial height.
The initial height of Ping was 10 meters on the platform, and the final depth in the water was 6 meters.
Therefore, the change in height is 10 meters - 6 meters = 4 meters.
So, the correct answer is 4 meters.
