SOLUTION
Let us use a simple diagram to interprete the question
In the diagram above, the dark stuff below represents the shadow and the rectangular bar represents the building. I have labelled the height of the building as h.
So we will use the right-angled triangle formed to find h
As we can see h represents the opposite side and 56.5 feet represents the adjacent side of the right-angle triangle. So we will use TOA
So we have
Hence the answer is 104.9 feet to the nearest tenth

Answer:
$13,916.24
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find the value of the CD at maturity.
A = P(1 +rt) . . . . simple interest rate r for t years
A = $2500(1 +0.085·3) = $2500×1.255 = $3137.50
__
Now, we can find the value of the account with compound interest.
A = P(1 +r)^t . . . . . rate r compounded annually for t years
A = $3137.50 × 1.18^9 = $13,916.24
The mutual fund was worth $13,916.24 after 9 years.
How many facts does it take to make triangles congruent? Only 3 if they are the right three and the parts are located in the right place.
SAS where 2 sides make up one of the three angles of a triangle. The angle must between the 2 sides.
ASA where the S (side) is common to both the two given angles.
SSS where all three sides of one triangle are the same as all three sides of a second triangle. This one is my favorite. It has no exceptions.
In one very special case, you need only 2 facts, but that case is very special and it really is one of the cases above.
If you are working with a right angle triangle, you can get away with being given the hypotenuse and one of the sides. So you only need 2 facts. It is called the HL theorem. But that is a special case of SSS. The third side can be found from a^2 + b^2 = c^2.
You can also use the two sides making up the right angle but that is a special case of SAS.
Answer
There 6 parts to every triangle: 3 sides and 3 angles. If you show congruency, using any of the 3 facts above, you can conclude that the other 3 parts of the triangle are congruent as well as the three that you have.
Geometry is built on that wonderfully simple premise and it is your introduction to what makes a proof. So it's important that you understand how proving parts of congruent triangles work.
The value that would make the ratios equal to 4 to 10... I believe it would be 2 to 5
