Answer 1

The height of the tree is 80 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has a figure attached herewith.

Let the height of a tree = x feet

Height of Rubal = 66 inches

12 inches = 1 feet

66 inches = $\frac{66}{12}=5.5 feet$

Shadow of Rubal = 7 feet

Shadow of tree = 7 feet + 95 feet = 102 feet

$\frac{5.5}{7}=\frac{x}{102}$

now find the value of x by cross multiplication.

7x = 5.5 × 102

7x = 561

x = $\frac{561}{7}$

x = 80.14 ≈ 80 feet

The height of the tree is 80 feet.
