Answer:

  7.2 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar triangles have linear dimensions that are proportional. The ratio of heights will be the same as the ratio of permeters:

  h/(12 m) = 3/5 . . . . . . . small/large

  h = (3/5)(12 m) = 7.2 m . . . . . . multiply by 12 m

The height of the smaller triangle is 7.2 meters.
