Victor wanted to know the height of a tree at his friend’s house. On Saturday morning, he measured the shadow of the tree along the ground to be 24 feet long. At the same time, he measured his own shadow to be 3 feet long. Victor is 6 feet tall. Find the height of the tree

Sagot :

The shadow of the tree is 12ft long. Divide the height of the tree (24) by Victors height (6), which will equal 4. Then multiple 4 and the height of victors shadow. (this is my first time doing this, hope it helped:)

Ratio remains same

  • Let that be x

[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail \dfrac{6}{3}=\dfrac{x}{24}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail 2=x/24[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\rightarrowtail x=48[/tex]
