A tree that is 12 feet tall cast's a shadow that is 9 feet long. At the same time, a nearby stop sign casts a shadow that is 6 feet long. What is the height, h, of the stop sign

2 answers

height / shadow = height / shadow until sun moves or earth tilts
12/9 = h / 6
h = 6*12 /9 = (3*2*3*4 ) / (3*3) = 2 * 4 = 8
