\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "let the height of a tree be \"h\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "with horizontal surface, stake and tree with shades form two similar right triangles whose sides are proportional\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, \"h%2F1m=52m%2F6.5m\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"h%2F1m=52%2F6.5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"h%2F1m=8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"h=8%2A1m\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"h=8m\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the height of a tree is \"8m\"
\n" ); document.write( "
