I'm assuming the loading dock is the same height as the rightmost vertical support.  In that case, we can use similar triangles.

Let x = the height of the rightmost vertical support.

Then the following proportion must be true:

(1.2)/3 = x/5 

(It is 5 because that is the base of the larger right triangle).

Here you can use cross multiplaction to solve for x.

x = (1.2)*5*1/3  = 2

The height is 2 meters tall.
