60. The shadow of a 3m long stick is 4m long. At the same time of the
day, if the shadow of a flagstallis 24m long, how tall is the flagstall?​

Answer 1

18 m

The shadow of a 3m long stick is 4m long. at the same time of the day, if the shadow of a flagstaff is 24m long, how tall is the flagstaff?

Stick Length = 3 m

Shadow of stick = 4 m

let say Angle at ground = x ( which stick shadow makes with stick)

Tanx = Perpendicular / Base

Tanx = Stick Length / Shadow of Stick

Tanx = 3/4

Let Say length of flagstaff = y m

Angle will be same

Tanx = Flagstaff Length / Shadow of Flag

=> 3/4 = y / 24

=> 3 = y/6

=> y = 3 * 6

=> y = 18

Flagstaff is 18 m long

Answer 2

Answer:

18 cm

Explanation:

The shadow of a 3m long stick is 4m long. at the same time of the day, if the shadow of a flagstaff is 24m long, how tall is the flagstaff?

Stick Length = 3 m

Shadow of stick = 4 m

let say Angle at ground = x ( which stick shadow makes with stick)

= Perpendicular / Base

= Stick Length / Shadow of Stick

= 3/4

Let Say length of flagstaff = y m

Angle will be same

= Flagstaff Length / Shadow of Flag

=> 3/4 = y / 24

=> 3 = y/6

=> y = 3 * 6

=> y = 18

Flagstaff is 18 m long
