if the height matters, then you need to give some indication of the angles of elevation. Just knowing the direction tells us nothing about the buildings' locations.
The N8°W and N10°E are angles measured on the ground.
Apparently the 10m is a straight line on the ground from Christian to base of the tall building.
Trying to tie in the buildings' height means we have angles in vertical planes, totally unrelated to the angles on the ground. What does it matter how tall the buildings are? Do they appear the same height to Christian? That would give some relation between the vertical and horizontal distances.
Have you drawn a diagram? The information given above leaves too many unknowns.
Christian is between two tall buildings 10m away from the taller building if the angle of the top of the building from where he stands bears N8DEGREESW for the taller one and N10DEGREESE for other,how far is he from the other building if the taller building is 5/4 as tall as the other
