The change in height would be 10 meters (the height of the platform) minus 6 meters (the depth reached in the water), which equals 4 meters. So the correct answer is 4 meters.
The change in height can be calculated by subtracting the depth reached in the water from the height of the platform.
Change in height = Height of platform - Depth reached in water
Change in height = 10 meters - 6 meters
Change in height = 4 meters
Therefore, the change in height is 4 meters.
