Answer:

  3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The post is 4/24 = 1/6 as tall as the streetlight, so we expect its shadow to be 1/6 as long as that of the streetlight:

  (1/6)(18 ft) = 3 ft

The parking meter post shadow is 3 feet long.

You're very close. However, the less steep line should go through (4,7) and not some point slightly above that location. Also, the shaded region should be above both dashed lines at the same time. So you won't include the portion that I've marked in blue (see attached). Other than that, it looks great.
