A building casts a shadow of 40 feet on the ground. A wooden figure of a man is placed on the building and casts a shadow an additional 10 feet beyond the building's shadow. What is the height of the man?\

Respuesta :

The height of the man from the given question is; 37.5 ft

How to solve trigonometric ratios?

This question will form a triangle where;

Height of building = 30 ft

Height of man = h ft

Initial height of shadow = 40 ft

Additional height of shadow = 10 ft

Using similarity theorem, we have;

h/30 = (40 + 10)/40

h/30 = 5/4

h = (30 * 5)/4

h = 37.5 ft
