Question
The shadow of an object varies directly as its height h. A man 1.8 m tall casts a shadow 4.32 m long. If at the same time a flagpole casts a shadow 12.8 m long, how how is the flagpole?
Answers
since the ratio is constant, find the flagpole's height f, using
f/12.8 = 1.8/4.32
f/12.8 = 1.8/4.32
5.33
this legit or not
