A tree casts a shadow 11 ft long. A boy standing next to the tree casts a shadow 2.2 ft. long. The triangle shown for the tree and its shadow is similar to the triangle shown for the boy and his shadow. If the boy is 5 ft. tall, how tall is the tree?

Because the tree's shadow is 5 times the boy's shadow, I think you just take the boy's height and multiply by 5 and you get 25ft. But then if this is trigonometry then :/
