If this is the only information given then the accurate estimate would be 26 feet because the 8 foot poles shadow streches 1 foot more then the acctuall object so if the same rule is applied to the tree just subract 1 away since u only have the shadows length then ur answer is
26

Answer:

They could cover 90 kilometres in 6 hours, after the terrain changed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Their speed, when they were traversing through the marsh, is:

speed = distance/time

s = 20 km / 4hr

s = 5 kmph

If their speed tripled, then it will be: 5*3 = 15 kmph
