Media Image

A wall stands 4 feet tall and casts a shadow on the ground that is 6 feet long. A tree casts a shadow that is 24 feet long.

Determine the height of the tree.

0.0625 ft

36 ft

16 ft

1 ft

Answer explanation

The height of the tree can be calculated using the ratio of the wall's height to its shadow length. Therefore, the tree's height is (4/6) * 24 = 16 ft.

△ABC ∼ △FGH, AB = 24, AC = 16, CB = 10, and FH = 12. Find the length of FG.

18

20

24

16

Answer explanation

Since △ABC ∼ △FGH, the corresponding sides are proportional. Using the ratios of the sides, FG = (24/16) * 12 = 18. Therefore, the length of FG is 18.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

Triangle S and triangle T are similar.  The base of triangle S measures 0.6 in. with a height of 0.8 in.  If the base of triangle T measures 3.9 in., what is the height?

5.2 in.

3.7 in

1.9 in

2.3 in

Answer explanation

Since triangles S and T are similar, their corresponding sides are proportional. Using the ratio of base to height for triangle S, we can find the height of triangle T: 0.6/0.8 = 3.9/x. Solving for x gives x = 5.2 in.
