You cross multiply the ratio of 13ft (shadow) over 20ft (flag pole) by x (shadow for boy) over 5.5ft (BOY) and then divide the products 71.5/20 = 3.575ft and I'd round that to 3.6ft for less sig figures

Exterior angle theorem <br> what is the value of u? I’m willing to give brainlist!!
KengaRu [80]
Answer: 45

Explanation: two angles that form a Line always equal 180 degrees, so we start with the equation 180-u+47, which is the measure of the missing interior angle measure. All of the angles inside of a triangle also equal 180 degrees, so we can set up this equation to find U:
u-18+u+(180-u+47)=180
We can start to simplify by first simplifying what’s inside the parenthesis:
u-18+u+153-u=180
Then you solve the equation to get
U=45 degrees
