A) 60 m |
B) 65 m |
C) 70 m |
D) 72 m |
A) 60 m |
Given height of first vertical stick = 12 m
and length of its shadow = 8 m
Let height of second vertical stick = x m
and length of its shadow = 40 m
Now, in \( \Large \triangle ABC\ and\ \triangle PQR \)
By proportion \( \Large \frac{12}{8} = \frac{x}{40} \)
=> \( \Large \frac{12 \times 40}{8} = x \)
Therefore, x = 60 m
