We have been given that Wally wants to determine the height of a statue that casts a 164-inch shadow by comparing it to his own height and shadow length. Wally is 68 inches tall, casts a shadow that is 41 inches in length.
We will use proportions to solve for the height of the statue because proportions state that ratio between two proportional quantities is same.
Upon substituting our given values in above equation, we will get:
Therefore, the height of the statue is 272 inches.

Answer:
6852 feet .
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer the attached figure
The chairlift at a ski resort rises a total of 2600 feet from where it starts. i.e.AB = 2600 feet
The angle of elevation is about 22.3 degrees.i.e.∠ACB= 22.3°
We are supposed to find How far do riders travel on the lift i.e.AC
In ΔABC
We will use trigonometric ratio
So, riders travel 6852 feet .
