Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio of the length of a vertical pole and it's shadow on the ground is 7:2. we have to find the length of pole if the length of shadow is 2.4

As, Ratio of length of vertical pole and its shadow is 7 : 2

Let the length of vertical pole is 7x m

and the length of shadow is 2x m

As given the length of shadow=2.4m

i.e 2x=2.4 ⇒ x=1.2 m

Hence, the length of pole is

7x=7(1.2)=8.4 m

Length of pole is 8.4 m

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a pole is 8.4 m
