It appears that the Pythagorean theorem can be applied to this problem
  (distance to shadow)² = (height of building)² + (length of shadow)²
  (38 m)² = (height of building)² + (28 m)²
  660 m² = (height of building)²
Then the height of the building is
  height of building = √660 m ≈ 25.7 m

Axis of symmetry: x=4; points: (3,-2), (6,-26); opening downward
Andru [333]
Vertex form is
y=a(x-h)^2+k
vertex is (h,k)
axis of symmetry is x=4, therfor h=4
y=a(x-4)^2+k

we have some points
(3,-2) and (6,-26)
input and solve for a and k

(3,-2)
-2=a(3-4)^2+k
-2=a(-1)^2+k
-2=a(1)+k
-2=a+k

(6,-26)
-26=a(6-4)^2+k
-26=a(2)^2+k
-26=a(4)+k
-26=4a+k

we have

-2=a+k
-26=4a+k
multiply first equation by -1 and add to second

2=-a-k
<u>-26=4a+k +</u>
-24=3a+0k

-24=3a
divide both sides by 3
-8=a

-2=a+k
-2=-8+k
add 8 to both sides
6=k

the equation is
y=-8(x-4)^2+6
