How tall is a flagpole that casts a shadow 35 feet long when a man 6 feet tall casts a shadow 8 feet long?
The flagpole is 26 feet, 3 inches tall. (210/8 feet = 26.25 feet)Since the ratio of height to shadow is 6/8, the flagpole is also 3/4 as tall as its shadow.6/8 (man) = x/35 (pole)6/8 (35) = x210/8 = xx = 26.25 feet

How tall is a flagpole that casts a shadow 28 feet long when a man 4 feet tall casts a shadow 8 feet long?
The flagpole is 14 feet tall - all of the shadows (at that particular time of day) are twice the length of the object. You can compare any values at that time, and the ratios are the same: x/ 28 = 4/8 (= 1/2) x = 14
