Most of the information's required for solving the question is already given in the question.
Height of the building that casts a shadow of 20 m = 32 m
Then
Height of the man that casts a shadow of 1.2 m = (32/20) * 1.2 meter
                                                                             = 3.2 * 1.2 meter
                                                                             = 3.84 meter
So the actual height of the person casting a shadow of 1.2 meter is 3.84 meters. I hope that the procedure used for solving the problem is easy enough for you to understand. You can definitely use this method in future for solving problems of similar type without requiring any additional help from outside.

A2+b2 = C2solve for a
lesantik [10]
a^2+b*2=c^2 

a^2+2b=c^2

  \text{Regroup terms} 

a^2=c^2-2b
  \text{Subtract 2b from both sides} 

a=\pm \sqrt{c^2-2b}  \text{Take the square root of both sides}
