Question

An electric pole 20 metre high cast a shadow of 15 metre find the height of a tree that casts a shadow of 24 under the similar condition

Answer 1

Answer:

32m

Step-by-step explanation:

h1 = 20m

b1 = 15m

h1/b1 = 20/15 = tan θ  (opp/adj )

=> h2/b2 also equals 20/15

=> h2/24 = 20/15

=> h2 = (20/15) * 24

         = 32m
