In the given situation the two formed triangles are similar.

In similar triangles, the ratio between corresponding sides is equal.


(x)/(5.5ft)=(24ft)/(4ft)

Then, you use this equation to find the height of the oak tree (x):


x=(24ft\cdot5.5ft)/(4ft)=33ftThen, the height of the oak tree is 33 feet
