A 10-meter high flagpole casts a shadow 6 meters long How long is the shadow of a nearby bush that is 3 meters tall?
1.8 meters. The ratio of object to shadow is 10:6. Therefore if the object is 3, the shadow is 1.8 ( 6/10x3).
A tower casts a shadow 48 m long Tom is 2 meters tall and casts a shadow 8 meters long while standing in the tower's shadow How tall is the tower?
As the question is stated, Tom is standing IN THE TOWER'S SHADOW. If so, then Tom can't cast a shadow of his own, because he is not illuminated. Let's assume the question means to imply that Tom's shadow is measured AT THE SAME TIME that the shadow of the tower is measured, and kind of NEAR the tower, so that the sun casts both shadows from the same place in the sky. If this is a valid assumption, then the tower is 12 meters tall.
