We are given the height of Joe which is 1.6 meters, the length of his shadow is 2 meters when he stands 3 meters from the base of the floodlight.
First, we have to illustrate the problem. Then we can observe two right triangles formed, one is using Joe and the length of the shadow, the other is the floodlight and the sum of the distance from the base plus the length of the shadow. To determine the height of the floodlight, use ratio and proportion:
1.6 / 2 = x / (2 +3)
where x is the height of the flood light
solve for x, x = 4. Therefore, the height of the floodlight is 4 meters.
It is 484 m^2 ,to my understanding!

Answer:
20 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let speed of Train a = Va mph
Let speed of Train b = Vb mph
Va = Vb + 30
Let time taken for Train a = Ta
Let time taken for Train b = Tb
time taken = distance travelled/speed
Ta = 350/Va = 350/(Vb+30)
Tb = 140/Vb
But they both travel in the same amount of time.
So, Ta = Tb

Cross multiply

Divide both sides by 210

2L + 2(L-6) = 68
2L + 2L -12 = 68
4L = 80
L = 20
The length is 20 in. and the width is 14 in.
