Question 1

A person walks from a point where his shadow length is measured to another point. The distances from a lamp post are 46 m and 76 m respectively. How far did he walk?
Step-by-step:
1. First position: distance from pole = 46 m
2. Second position: distance from pole = 76 m
3. Distance between positions = 76 - 46 = 30 m

Question 2

A person walks from a point where his shadow length is measured to another point. The distances from a lamp post are 37 m and 100 m respectively. How far did he walk?
Step-by-step:
1. First position: distance from pole = 37 m
2. Second position: distance from pole = 100 m
3. Distance between positions = 100 - 37 = 63 m

Question 3

A 150 cm tall person casts a 231 cm shadow. A nearby building is 728 cm tall. How long will its shadow be?
Step-by-step:
1. Ratio of height to shadow length = 150/231 = 0.65
2. For object: Height / Shadow = 0.65
3. Shadow = Height / Ratio = 728 / 0.65 = 1121.1 cm

Question 4

A 154 cm tall person casts a 214 cm shadow. A building casts a 308 cm shadow at the same time. How tall is the building?
Step-by-step:
1. Ratio of shadow to height = 214/154 = 1.39
2. For object: Shadow / Height = 1.39
3. Height = Shadow / Ratio = 308 / 1.39 = 221.6 cm

Question 5

A person walks from a point where his shadow length is measured to another point. The distances from a lamp post are 39 m and 100 m respectively. How far did he walk?
Step-by-step:
1. First position: distance from pole = 39 m
2. Second position: distance from pole = 100 m
3. Distance between positions = 100 - 39 = 61 m

Question 6

A person walks from a point where his shadow length is measured to another point. The distances from a lamp post are 35 m and 62 m respectively. How far did he walk?
Step-by-step:
1. First position: distance from pole = 35 m
2. Second position: distance from pole = 62 m
3. Distance between positions = 62 - 35 = 27 m

Question 7

A person walks from a point where his shadow length is measured to another point. The distances from a lamp post are 50 m and 75 m respectively. How far did he walk?
Step-by-step:
1. First position: distance from pole = 50 m
2. Second position: distance from pole = 75 m
3. Distance between positions = 75 - 50 = 25 m

Question 8

A person walks from a point where his shadow length is measured to another point. The distances from a lamp post are 39 m and 99 m respectively. How far did he walk?
Step-by-step:
1. First position: distance from pole = 39 m
2. Second position: distance from pole = 99 m
3. Distance between positions = 99 - 39 = 60 m

Question 9

A person walks from a point where his shadow length is measured to another point. The distances from a lamp post are 24 m and 97 m respectively. How far did he walk?
Step-by-step:
1. First position: distance from pole = 24 m
2. Second position: distance from pole = 97 m
3. Distance between positions = 97 - 24 = 73 m

Question 10

A person walks from a point where his shadow length is measured to another point. The distances from a lamp post are 36 m and 61 m respectively. How far did he walk?
Step-by-step:
1. First position: distance from pole = 36 m
2. Second position: distance from pole = 61 m
3. Distance between positions = 61 - 36 = 25 m

Question 11

A 157 cm tall person casts a 253 cm shadow. A nearby building is 820 cm tall. How long will its shadow be?
Step-by-step:
1. Ratio of height to shadow length = 157/253 = 0.62
2. For object: Height / Shadow = 0.62
3. Shadow = Height / Ratio = 820 / 0.62 = 1321.4 cm

Question 12

A 164 cm tall person casts a 180 cm shadow. A nearby building is 700 cm tall. How long will its shadow be?
