Dear David, my point is that the tan (or cotan) table is not enough, it is more tricky on an inclined surrface.
Even if you know that your pace is 47 centimeters on a 12° slope (upwards) and the shadow is 21,5 paces long, - you will have to solve a more complicated problem than the multiplication of two numbers (to get the height of an object casting that shadow).
Warm regards,
Tony
