As shown in the figures, two poles of height 8m and 4m are perpendicular to the groudn. If the length of shadow smaller pole due to sunlight is 6 m then long will be the shadow of the bigger pole of the same time? |

Answer» `Pr `and `AC` are two poles who have their shadows as `QR` and `BC` respectively. The shadows are formed at the same time. `:.DeltaPQR~DeltaABC` `:.(PR)/(AC)=(QR)/(BC)` `:.(PR)/(AC)=(QR)/(BC)`……[Corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional] `:.(4)/(8)=(6)/(x)` `:.4xx x=8xx6 :. x=(8xx6)/(4)` `:.x=12 : BC=12m` |
