LIGHTHOUSES On her trip along the East coast, Jennie stops to look at the tallest lighthouse in the U.S. located at Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. At that particular time of day, Jennie measures her shadow to be 1 foot 6 inches in length and the length of the shadow of the lighthouse to be 53 feet 6 inches. Jennie knows that her height is 5 feet 6 inches. What is the height of the Cape Hatteras lighthouse to the nearest foot?
