How will you measure height of building when you are at the top of the building? And if you have stone with you.

• Drop the stone from top of building and note the time taken by it to touch the ground.Then distance ,S = 1/2* 9.8 *t^2

• Throw stone from top and note the time,t.
  
  Find height using formula s= ut +1.2 *g*t^2 where u=0

• Throw the stone and calucalate the speed of the stone to travel from buliding to ground

• drop the stone and find the time taken for the stone to reach the ground. to find height using this formula s = a + gt ( s = height, a= initial velocity=0, g=9.8m/s, t = time taken)

• yes. To measure the height of the building you have to drop the stone from the top of the building and you have to measure the time taken by the stone to reach the ground.It would be an approximate height of the building because in air has some resistance and the value gravity is not equal at all the plase.
  So if the height of the building is S
  we know that S=u*t + f*t*t/2
  put the value u=0
  then S= f*t*t/2
  t=time taken by the stone to reach ground
