Answer: The height of tree = 15 ft. 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A person's height is 5-ft 3-in = [5 x (12 )+3 ] inches [ 1 ft= 12 inches]

= 63 inches

Their shadow has a length of 3-ft 6-in = [3 x 12+6] inches

= 42 inches

If a nearby tree has a shadow of length 10-ft 4-in = [10 x 12+4] inches

= 124 inches.

At the same time,

$\dfrac{\text{Height of tree}}{\text{Height of person}}=\dfrac{\text{Length person's shadow}}{\text{Length of tree's shadow}}\\\\\dfrac{\text{Height of tree}}{63}=\dfrac{124}{42}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{Height of tree}=\dfrac{124}{42}\times63=186\ inches\\\\=\dfrac{186}{12}= 15.5 ft\ or\ 15 ft.\ 6\ inches.$
