Answer:
IT IS THE QUESTION OF DIRECT AND INVERSE PROPOTIONS ACCORDING TO MY EXPERIENCE AND QUESTION.(HINT : THIS IS A DIRECT PROPOTIONAL QUESTION)
Step-by-step explanation:
Height of pole = 50 ft
Shadow cast by it = 95 ft
Height of second pole = 5 ft
Shadow cast by it = ?
Let, the shadow cast by it be y2
Height of pole (x) = 50 5
Shadow cas by it (y) = 90 y2
x1/y1 = x2/y2
50/90 = 5/y2
90×5/50 = y2 (both 0 canceled)
9×5/5 = y2 (both 5 canceled because 5÷5=1)
9 = y2.
