Answer:
63m
Step-by-step explanation:
A pool that is 2.9m tall cast a shadow that is 1.76m
At the same time, a nearby building casts a shadow that is 38.25m long.
We are to find the height of the building.
If an object of length 2.9m cast an image of 1.76m ,
Then an image of 38.25m willl be cast by an object of what length?
Cross multiplying this gives:
[tex]\frac{38.25 * 2.9}{1.76}[/tex] = 63.02556818 = 63m (rounded up to nearest meter)
