Question

When the sun is at a certain angle in the sky, a 50 foot building will cast a 20 foot shadow. What is the length of the shadow in feet cast by a 20 foot pole at the same time?

Answer 1

Answer:

8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the building/pole and shadow of each are in proportion.

let x be the length of shadow of the pole, then

$\frac{50}{20}$ = $\frac{20}{x}$ ( cross- multiply )

50x = 400 ( divide both sides by 50 )

x = 8

The shadow cast by the pole is 8 ft
