Suppose you are standing such that a 36-foot tree is directly between you and the sun. if you are standing 50 feet away from the tree and the tree casts a 60-foot shadow, how tall could you be and still be completely in the shadow of the tree?

6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The height of tree, say AB ( A is top, B is bottom ) = 36 foot,

Length of its shadow, BE = 60 feet,

Suppose CD represents me, ( where C is top, D is bottom )

We have, BD = 50 feet,

∵ DE = BE - BD = 60 - 50 = 10 feet,

Using trigonometric ratio,

Hence, I would be 6 feet tall.

the answer to your question a or b but i am pretty sure it is b. i hope this : )
