Question

Which of the following proportions can be used can be used to estimate the height of the tree?
*Is it C?

Answer 1

The tree is not at the midpoint. divide 100 by 120 first. this will let you find the ratio between the tree and the height of the building, because they are 2 separate triangles. Take that number and multiply it by the height of the building to get the answer.
