To find the height of the flagpole, you can use the concept of similar triangles. The ratio of the height of the flagpole to the length of its shadow should equal the ratio of the height of the meter stick (1 meter) to its shadow (1.4 meters). Therefore, the height of the flagpole can be calculated as follows: [ \text{Height of flagpole} = \frac{7.7 , \text{m}}{1.4 , \text{m}} \times 1 , \text{m} \approx 5.5 , \text{m}. ] Thus, the flagpole is approximately 5.5 meters tall.

The statue is 6/2 = 3 times the length of its shadow. The flagpole is 3 times its shadow ie the flagpole is 3*10 = 30 metres.

First, find the ratio of fencepost-height : shadow which is 1.6 : 2.6 . This can also be written as a fraction, 1.6/2.6 . Then, multiply the flagpole's shadow by this ratio: 31.2 x 1.6/2.6 = 19.2 The flagpole is 19.2m high. The trigonometry way: On the imaginary right angled triangle formed by the fencepost and its shadow, let the angle at which the hypotenuse meets the ground = θ sinθ = 1.6/2.6 sinθ = /31.2 x/31.2 = 1.6/2.6 2.6x = 31.2 * 1.6 = 49.92 x = 19.2 The flagpole is 19.2m high.
