Answer:
The shadow of the building = 192 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ There is a proportional relation between the heights of the tree and the building and their shadows
∴ Height tree/height building = shadow tree/shadow building
x = = 192 ft ⇒ x is the length of the shadow of the building
so... notice the picture below, the angle in the fourth quadrant
now... notice, the cosine is just the distance the angle makes with the x-axis
so... using the pythagorean theorem, get the opposite side, from that triangle, keeping in mind that, "y" is negative in the 4th quadrant
once you get "y", get any other trigonometry value you need :)
