A pole that is 3.4m tall casts a shadow that is 1.03m long. At the same time, a nearby building casts a shadow that is 41.5mlong. How tall is the building?

Sagot :

I got that the building is 136.9902912...(nonterminating) meters tall. Or you could round that to 137m tall. I got that by setting up ratios of the height and the shadows, then cross multiplying.
