How tall is a nearby tree that casts a 13 foot 5 inch shadow?
It depends on the angle of the sun. The height of the tree is equal to the lenght of its shadow times the cotangent (or divided by the tangent) of the sun's angle above the horizon.
When a 5 foot vertical pole casts a 3 foot 4 inch shadow and an oak tree casts a 20 foot shadow then what is the height of the tree?
Assuming that you are not using angles, but only ratios I have the following:Your answer is 30 ftCalculations:5 ft : 3f & 4 in (40in)20 * 12 = 240 in240 / 40 = 66 * 5 = 30 ft
On a sunny day if a 36-inch yardstick casts a 21-inch shadowhow tall is a building whose shadow is 168 ft?
24 feet 6 inches to be exact 12*3=36 168/12=14 14*6=84+84=168 21*14=294 12/294=24 R6
If An ostrich is 108 inches tall if its shadow is 162 inches and an emu standing next to it casts a 90 inch shadow how tall is the emu?
You can compute the height by using proportions: (90/162) = (H/108), which would be read, 90 is to 162 as H is to 108. then solve for H, which is the actual height of the emu. H = (90/162) x 108 = 59.94 inches

On a sunny day if a 36inch yardstick casts a 21inch shadow how tall is a building whose shadow is 168ft?
To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion based on the similar triangles formed by the yardstick and its shadow, and the building and its shadow. The ratio of the height of the yardstick to its shadow is 36:21. We can use this ratio to find the height of the building by setting up the proportion: 36 inches / 21 inches = x / 168 feet. Solving for x, the height of the building would be 288 feet.
