The two triangles shown are similar triangles. Numerically, the ratio computed by dividing the length of any side of tower triangle by the length of the corresponding side of the walking stick (similar) triangle will be the same value. Therefore, when the length of the tower shadow is divided by the length of the walking stick shadow, that ratio will be the exactly same as the tower height divided by the walking stick height. (length of tower shadow)/(length of walking stick shadow) = (tower's height)/(walking stick height) tower's height = {(length of tower shadow)/(length of walking stick shadow)}*(walking stick height)
Their values are: x = 2.4 and y = 0.6 which is a ratio of 4 to 1 and both triangles have an area of 7.8 square units
All triangles have a height because the area of any triangle is 0.5*base*perpendicular height
Not necessarily. You find the area of a triangle with the formula 1/2*base*height=Area. Imagine two triangles, one with 3 inches for both the base and height, and one with 4.5 inches for the height and 2 inches for the base. Both of these triangles will have 9 sq. in. for their areas, but they are not congruent.
half of the base multipled by the height

As for all objects, vertically measure it.
Trigonometry
trigonometry
To do this, you will need to measure the length and the width and the height and your have your answer to the volume.
They have the same measure of base and height.
People who need to measure height of objects such as trees, buildings, etc.

Thales of Miletos is the ancient Greek philosopher/ mathematician who first calculated the height of the Great Pyramid of Giza with the use of trigonometry and similar and right triangles.
Find length, width, and height. Then you would proceed to multiply all three numbers and there you have your answer.
It is impossible to find a triangle if only angle measures are given (all similar triangles have the same angles).
