Answer: 54 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio between a tree's height and its shadow's length = x : 72ft
Ratio between man's height and his shadow's length = 6ft : 8ft = 3 : 4
In order to solve this problem, we have to cross multiply the two ratios (image)
So, 4x = 216.
By solving this equation we learn that x = 54ft
So, the tree is 54 feet tall.
