Answer:

Actual height of the building is 37.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to be used to get the actual length of the building,

Scale used = [tex]\frac{\text{Dimension of image (on map)}}{\text{Dimension of actual}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{30}[/tex]

By this formula,

[tex]\frac{1.25}{\text{Actual height}}=\frac{1}{30}[/tex]

Actual height of the building = 1.25 × 30

                                               = 37.5 feet

Therefore, actual height of the building will be 37.5 feet.
