By hours and minutes.
What tool do you use to measure the height of a school?
(1) One way would be to have a stick, stuck vertically into the ground. Measure the length of the shadow and the length of the stick. The actual height of the stick will be a ratio of the shadow's length. Then measure the length of the school's shadow. The height of the school in comparison with its shadow length will be same ratio as the height of the stick compared to its shadow length. You could use a tape measure for this. And possibly a calculator, which will make the calculation easier than doing it by long arithmetic or mental arithmetic. (2) Another way would be to use something that can tell you, from a short distance away from the school, the angle between the top of the school and the ground. A sextant can do this. It is more accurate than using a protractor. Using trigonometry and the distance from the building to where you are standing, you will be able to calculate the height of the school, because it will be at right angles to the line from you to the school. If you don't know trigonometry, method (1) will be easier.
