Question

The length of the shadow of a tower 153 m high is 45 m at a particular time. Find the height of an
electric pole whose shadow is 20 m long at the same time.​

Answer 1

Answer:

the time was same so angle of elevation of the sun would same for both the cases.

So.

153/ 45 = x / 20

x = 153 × 20 \ 45

x = 68 m

Thus, the height of the pole is 68m.
