Using trigonometry the angle of elevation is 77 degrees rounded to the nearest degree

You're shadow is always changing. Why not just measure yourself?
Hold a yardstick perpendicular to the ground, and measure the shadow. Make a proportion, then measure the tree's shadow. Use the proportion to compute.

To cast a 19 foot shadow the building would have to be 26.91 feet tall. Each foot of building/tree casts 8.47 inches of shadow.
Because the shadow that is cast aligns along an identical vertical plane as the object
what is the difference between shadow and image
140*10/6 = 233.33... ft or 233 ft 4 inches. Except at that distance, the end of the shadow would be too diffuse to measure accurately.
The buildings shadow. : )
That varies depending on the height of the sun, whether the shadow is cast on a sloping surface and so forth.

If the building casts a shadow, then the sun is out, and any man who is not standing in theshadow of the building will cast a shadow of his own, no matter how short or tall he may be.(If you had told us the length of the man's shadow, it would have been a completely differentquestion, and we could have had a completely different answer to offer in response.)
