Answer» Given the ratio of the length of a vertical pole and it's shadow on the ground is 7:2. we have to find the length of pole if the length of shadow is 2.4 As, Ratio of length of vertical pole and its shadow is 7 : 2 Let the length of vertical pole is 7x m and the length of shadow is 2x m As given the length of shadow=2.4m i.e 2x=2.4 ⇒ x=1.2 m Hence, the length of pole is 7x=7(1.2)=8.4 m Length of pole is 8.4 m Lengey of pole is 8.4 m.correct answer |
