--description--

Create and add the following properties to .bb2a:

css
margin: auto;
width: 5vw;
height: 5vw;
border-top: 1vw solid #000;
border-bottom: 1vw solid #000;
border-left: 1vw solid #999;
border-right: 1vw solid #999;

After you add these, you can see how a thick border on an element gives you some angles where two sides meet. You are going to use that bottom border as the top of the building.

--hints--

You should give .bb2a a margin of auto.

js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.bb2a')?.margin, "auto");

You should give .bb2a a width of 5vw.

js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.bb2a')?.width, "5vw");

You should give .bb2a a height of 5vw.

js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.bb2a')?.height, "5vw");

You should give .bb2a a border-top of 1vw solid #000.

js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.bb2a')?.borderTop, "1vw solid rgb(0, 0, 0)");

You should give .bb2a a border-bottom of 1vw solid #000.

js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.bb2a')?.borderBottom, "1vw solid rgb(0, 0, 0)");

You should give .bb2a a border-left of 1vw solid #999.

js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.bb2a')?.borderLeft, "1vw solid rgb(153, 153, 153)");

You should give .bb2a a border-right of 1vw solid #999.

js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.bb2a')?.borderRight, "1vw solid rgb(153, 153, 153)");
