Question:
If a tree 24 m high casts a shadow of 15 m, then the height of a pole that casts a shadow of 6 m under similar conditions is 9.6 m.
Solution:
True
Height of tree = 24m
Length of shadow of tree = 15m
Let height of pole = x
Length of shadow of pole = 6m
Now,
24/15 = x/6
x = (24×6)/15
x=9.6m
