The length of the shadow of a building is 36 m. The length of the pole which is perpendicular to the land, is 1.9 m. The length of the pole's shadow is 1.52 m. What is the height of the building?
Let x be the height of the building.
Using similar triangles, we can set up the following proportion:
(Height of building) / 36 = 1.9 / 1.52
Cross multiplying, we get:
Height of building = 36 * (1.9 / 1.52)
Height of building = 45
Therefore, the height of the building is 45 meters.
