According to the rule of similar polygons the ratio of corresponding sides of two polygons will be the same. So in this case the ratio of original length and shadow of a stick and ratio of length of flagpole and its shadow will be the same.
Length of Stick = 5 feet
Shadow of Stick = 8 feet
Shadow of flagpole = 32 feet
Length of flagpole = x = ?
Using rule of similar polygon we can write,

Therefore, the length of flagpole will be 20 feet.
Answer:
all work is pictured and shown
The surface area is 72 ft.^2.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
In the given right triangle,
Measure of angle = x°
Opposite side of the angle = 12 units
Adjacent side of the angle = 6 units
By taking tangent ratio of the given angle,
tan(x°) = 
= 
= 2
