Answer:
13.6 meter
Explanation:
Given that :
Suzi's height, p1 = 1.7 m
Suzi's shadow, p2 = 0.3 m
Tree shadow, t2 = 2.4 m
Tree height, t1 =?
Using the relation :
p1 / p2 = t1 / t2
1.7 / 0.3 = t1 / 2.4
Cross multiply :
1.7 * 2.4 = 0.3 * t1
4.08 = 0.3t1
t1 = 4.08 / 0.3
t1 = 13.6
Height of the tree is 13.6 m
