In sunlight, a vertical stick 6 ft tall casts a shadow 2 ft long. At the same time a nearby tree casts a shadow 14 ft long. How
tall is the tree? Round to the nearest tenth.
1 answer:
Answer:
42.0 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
let t be the height of the tree.
<u><em>At the same time ,the measure of something </em></u>
<u><em>and its shadow are proportional</em></u> .
Then

Then
2t = 6 × 14
Then
2t = 84
Then
t = 84/2
Then
t = 42
Therefore the tree is 42 ft tall
