At a certain time of the day a tree 15m tall casts a shadow of 12m while a second tree casts a shadow of 20m how tall is the second tree?
25 meters because 25/20 = 15/12 which is the tangent ratio.
How high is a tree that casts a 63 ft shadow at the same time a 21ft pole casts a shadow which is 21 ft long?
The shadow:object ratio is 1:1 so the tree is 63 feet high.
A tree is twice as high as the length of the shadow it casts The distance from the tip of tree to the tip of the shadow is 8 feet What is the length of the shadow that the tree casts?
Since the tree is twice as high as the length of the shadow, we can set up the following equation: 2x = x + 8, where x is the length of the shadow. Solving the equation gives us x = 8 feet, so the length of the shadow that the tree casts is 8 feet.

How high is a tree that casts a 37 ft shadow at the same time a 4foot pole casts a 12 foot shadow?
It works out as 12 feet and 4 inches in height
When a tree cast a 20 foot shadow a man 6 feet tall casts a 3 foot shadow how tall is the tree?
The man is twice as high as his shadow. Therefore, the tree must also be twice as high as its shadow, which would make the tree 40 feet tall.

How is a tree that casts a 28-ft shadow at the same time a 4-ft pole casts a shadow which is 9-ft long?
The height of the tree is in direct proportion to the pole and its shadow
How high is a tree that casts a 33 ft shadow at the same time a 5 ft pole casts a shadow which is 12 ft long?
(12 / 5) × 33 = 79.2 feet high Divide the pole shadow by the pole height: (12 / 5) = 2.4 feet Times the 2.4 by the tree shadow of 33 feet: 2.4 x 33 = 79.2
