On a sunny day if a 36inch yardstick casts a 21inch shadow how tall is a building whose shadow is 168ft?

To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion based on the similar triangles formed by the yardstick and its shadow, and the building and its shadow. The ratio of the height of the yardstick to its shadow is 36:21. We can use this ratio to find the height of the building by setting up the proportion: 36 inches / 21 inches = x / 168 feet. Solving for x, the height of the building would be 288 feet.
