18 m

Step-by-step 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)

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
