A flagpole that is 40 ft in height casts a shadow that is 25 ft in length. If a nearby building is 200ft tall, and the sun hits it at the same angle as the flagpole, what is the length of the building’s shadow?

Answer:

120

The first thing you need to do is find the what times 40 equals to 200 than you multiply that by the first shadow to fing the new shadow.
