The tallest building in the world is the Burj Khalifa in Dubai which is 0.83 km tall. Most buildings are significantly smaller, and consequently their heights are measured in metres rather than kilometres.

You could if you wanted to, but you must do so in fractions of a kilometers, it is more sensible to do so with feet or meters.

The best unit to measure the height of a house would be meters. Meters are commonly used for measuring the height of buildings and structures due to their practicality and ease of understanding.

What would you measure the height of a building?

from trigonometry - (you'll need a table or calculator) - the "tangent" function is the ratio of the opposite side of a right triangle to the base. in your example, the opposite side is the "height" of the tower, the base is the "distance you're standing from the tower", and the angle is measured from where you're standing to the top of the tower. alternately, without having "tangent" tables or a calculator, you can make 2 triangles using something of a known height (a 1 meter stick, or something else) - create a 2nd triangle using the "object of known height" with the same incidence angle as the tower and measure the distance from you to the "object of known height" and the distance from you to the tower. the height of the tower = (height of known object) * (distance to the tower) / (distance from you to known object)
