Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: 10 meters/3 meters =x/4.5 meters

Where x = the maximum distance the projector can be placed that can produce an image 4.5 meters high

3x = 10 (4.5)

3x = 45

X= 45/3

X= 15 meters

So, the maximum distance that the projector can be placed from the screen which produces an image 4.5 meters high is 15 meters.
