1)

First, convert 5 ft 6 in into ft so all of the measurements are in the same units.

5 ft + 6 in = 5 ft + 0.5 ft = 5.5 ft

Next, set up the proportion as follows:
(Shane (height))/(Shane' shadow (length)) = (Monument (height))/(Monument's shadow (length))


(5.5)/(Shane' shadow (length)) = (x)/(350)

Then, cross multiply and solve.

5.5(350) = Shane's shadow length (x)


(5.5(350))/(Shane' shadow (length)) = x

Since you didn't provide the length of Shane's shadow, I can't find the height of the Monument. Hopefully, you can finish it from the information I provided.

2)

Same set up as #1

You didn't provide the height and length of Pete or the tree so I can't finish answering the question.

3)

set up the proportion as follows:
(T)/(X) = (U)/(Y) = (V)/(Z)


(12)/(8) = (8)/(6) = (6)/(3)

simplify (or cross multiply) to see if they are equal to each other.


(3)/(2) = (4)/(3) = (2)/(1)

This statement is FALSE because they are not equal to each other.
