Make a ratio: <span> Make sure shadow is in same location on both fractions (either numerator or denominator) </span>
x/90=5/8
Cross multiply:
8x=90x5 8x=450 <span> x=56.25 feet </span>
Therefore, the approximate height of the building to the nearest foot would be 56.25 feet. <span> That makes sense, too, because the woman's shadow is taller than she is, but is less than double her height. </span>The building shadow is taller than the building, but it's less than double the height of the building.
I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.
