Applying the Pythagorean theorem, the height of the building is: 24.9 m.

<h3>How to Apply the Pythagorean Theorem?</h3>

Where c is the length of the hypothenuse of a right triangle, and a and b are the legs of the right triangle, the Pythagorean theorem states that:

c = √(a² + b²).

The diagram of the building and its shadow form a right triangle as shown in the image below, where:

a = height of the building

b = 26

c = 36

Applying the Pythagorean theorem, we will have:

a = √(36² - 26²)

a = √(36² - 26²)

a = 24.9 m

The correct answer is D. 100%
Each tick counts as 8 so the beginning of the plot would be at 28 which is only 2 from 30 and everything else is on the plot is greater than 30 so the answer would have to be D since 75% would be too little coverage of the plot
