Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this up as a proportion with pole/building height on the top and shadow length on the bottom, using x for the unknown, which is the height of the building:
[tex]\frac{pole/building}{shadow}:\frac{3.4}{1.61}=\frac{x}{36.75}[/tex] and cross multiply to solve:
1.61x = 124.95 so
x = 78 m
