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 high is a tree that casts a 24 ft shadow at the same time a 12 ft post casts a shadow which is 12 ft long?

As the sun is far enough away, the rays of light are effectively parallel. This produces similar triangles with the ratio of sides the same in each case. As the shadow of the post is 12 ft and the shadow of the tree is 24 ft, the sides of the triangle of the tree are double that of the post. Assuming the post is parallel to the tree, the tree's height is twice the height of the post → tree = 12 ft × 2 = 24ft high.

How many stories is 90 feet high?

To determine the number of stories in a building that is 90 feet high, we need to know the typical height of one story. In general, the height of one story in a building is around 10 feet, but this can vary depending on the design and purpose of the building. Therefore, if we assume a standard height of 10 feet per story, a building that is 90 feet high would have approximately 9 stories.

The shadow:object ratio is 1:1 so the tree is 63 feet high.


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


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.

A building casts a 7.5m shadow at the same time that a 40m pole casts a shadow of 3m. How high is the building?

Ratio of shadows = 3m:7.5m :: 1:2.5 So, the ratio of the heights (in the same order) is 1:2.5 ie Ht(Pole):Ht(Building) = 40m:Ht(Building) = 1:2.5 So Ht(Building) = 2.5*40m = 100 metres
