Answer:
5.5 ft tall
Step-by-step explanation:
The shadows cast by the pole and by the woman form <em>similar triangles</em>.
In similar triangles, corresponding sides are in the same proportion.
Thus,
18/28.8 = x/8.8
Multiply each side of the equation by 8.8
x = 8.8 × 18/28.8 = 5.5 ft
The woman is 5.5 ft tall.
