Answer: 20 feet
=====================================================
Work Shown:
(height)/(shadow length) = (height)/(shadow length)
(5 ft)/(6.5 ft) = (x ft)/(26 ft)
5/(6.5) = x/26
5*26 = 6.5*x
130 = 6.5x
6.5x = 130
x = 130/(6.5)
x = 20
The palm tree is 20 feet tall, which is the same height as a 2 story building (assuming each floor is 10 ft).
