Mighty: A meter stick standing vertically casts a shadow 1.5 meters long on the ground. At the same time, a nearby tree casts a shadow 9 meters long on the ground. About how tall is the tree?
Hi mighty,
This is a similar triangle question. It is not particularly difficult, you don't need to use trigonometry or pythagoras or anything like that.
I want you you to try answering it yourself (Hint:draw the 2 triangles).
Get back to me with either your answer or with an explanation of what you have attempted.
That would be good.
