Question

a vertical stick is 8 cm high and the length of its shadow is 6 cm find the distance between the top of the stick and it's shadow​

Answer 1

10

Explanation:

8 and 6 are the numbers you work with

using the formula
`a^(2) + b^(2) = c^(2)`

we get :
`8^(2)` +
`6^(2)` =
`c^(2)`

64 + 36 =
`c^(2)`

100 =
`c^(2)`

`√(100) = \sqrt{c^(2) }`

10 = c
