The tree is 25 feet tall. A 5 foot pole cast a 2 foot shadow. This means that the sun angle causes the shadow to be 2/5 the length of the object casting it. The tree's shadow is 10 feet tall. Multiply 10 feet by 5/2 (inverting the fraction because we're going the other way) and we get 25 feet.
At a certain time of day a tree casts a 9 foot shadow at the same time that a person 6 feet tall casts a 4 foot shadow What is the height of the tree?
If the shadow of a 6-ft person is 4-ft long, then in this place at this moment, all shadowsare 2/3 the length of the vertical object that casts them.The 9-ft shadow therefore 2/3 the height of the tree. The height is (9)/(2/3) = (9 x 3/2) = 13.5-ft.-----------------------------------------(9/4)*6=13.5 ft.
