\frac{height _{1} }{shadow_{1}} =  \frac{height _{2} }{shadow_{2}}

\frac{height _{1} }{27m} = \frac{66cm}{56cm}

\frac{height _{1} }{2700cm} = \frac{66cm}{56cm}

2700*66=56*h _{1}

178200=56h _{1}

3182.1cm=h _{1}

\frac{3182.1cm}{1000cm} = 3.2m

height:3.2m

As long as everything is on level ground with uniform elevation, and everything happens at the same time of day (with the sun at the same height in the sky) ... 

(66cm statue) / (56cm shadow) = (height of tree, meters) / (27m shadow)

Multiply each side of the equation by (27m) :

height of tree = (66 cm) x (27m) / (56cm) = 31.82 meters or <em><u>31.8 meters </u></em>

is not ;

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

The actual standard deviation, = 1

;

The range rule of thumb to estimate the value if standard deviation is ;

Estimated standard deviation = Range / 4

The range = (maximum - minimum) values

The estimated standard deviation = 4 / 4 = 1

Hence, the estimated standard deviation is with 0.5 of the actual standard deviation, Thus, the estimated standard deviation is not substantially different from the actual standard deviation.
