let the height of the other pole be x ;
170cm --> 204 cm
x cm ---> 600 cm
As the length of height and the shadow are directly proportional ;
170/204 = x/600
x = 170×600/204
x = 500
Hence the length of other pole is 500cm
170cm --> 204 cm
x cm ---> 600 cm
As the length of height and the shadow are directly proportional ;
170/204 = x/600
x = 170×600/204
x = 500
Hence the length of other pole is 500cm
