Length of shadow = 35.56 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ BAC = 68°

Height of building = BC = 88 ft

Length of shadow = AC = ?

$tan(68^{o})=\frac{BC}{AC}\\\\tan(68^{o})=\frac{88}{b}\\\\b=\frac{88}{tan(68^{o})}\\\\b=\frac{88}{2.475}\\\\b=35.56 \,ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

This is correct because the triangles are similar. Angle S is similar to Angle Y, and Angle R is similar to Angle X.

None of the others can be correct either.

Hope it helps!
