An office building casts a shadow that is 55 m long. At the exact same time, a 5 m tree casts a shadow that is 1.1 m long. Use similar triangle ratios, to calculate the height of the office building.

The ratio of the triangle is 55/1.1, which is 50/1.

This means that the building is 50/1 = x/5

x = 250

The office building is 250 m tall.
