Answer:

38.57 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Height of monument, h = 300ft

Shadow of monument, s = 210 ft

Shadow of tree, s = 27ft

Height of tree, = x

Using the relation :

Height / shadow = height / shadow

Monument = tree

300 / 210 = h / 27

Cross multiply

300 * 27 = 210 * h

8100 = 210h

h = 8100 / 210

h = 38.57 feets
