- A cliff
A line from the top of a cliff to the ground passes just over the top of a pole 5 ft high. It meets the ground at a point 8 ft from the base of the pole. The point is 93 ft from the base of the cliff. How high is the cliff? - Shadow of tree
Miro stands under a tree and watches its shadow and shadow of the tree. Miro is 180 cm tall, and its shade is 1.5 m long. The tree's shadow is three times as long as Miro's shadow. How tall is the tree in meters? - Mirror
How far must Paul place a mirror to see the top of the tower 12 m high? The height of Paul's eyes above the horizontal plane is 160 cm, and Paul is from the tower distance of 20 m. - Mast angles and height
Calculate the height of the mast, whose foot can be seen at a depth angle of 11° and the top at a height angle of 28°. The mast is observed from a position 10 m above the level of the base of the mast. - Chimney and tree
Calculate the height of the factory chimney, which casts a shadow of 6.5 m long in the afternoon. At the same time, a 6 m high tree standing near it casts a shadow 25 dm long. - Observation 82811
From the 40 m high observation deck, you can see the top of the poplar at a depth angle of 50*10' and the bottom of the poplar at a depth angle of 58*. Calculate the height of the poplar. - Inclined plane
The body stays on an inclined plane and exerts a compressive force of 70N on it. Find the angle between the inclined plane and the horizontal if a gravitational force of 100N acts on the body. - Tree shadow
The tree perpendicular to the horizontal surface has a shadow 8.32 meters long. At the same time, a one-meter rod perpendicular to the horizontal surface has a shadow 64 cm long. How tall is the tree? - Determine 82470
The school building casts a shadow 16 m long on the plane of the yard, and at the same time, a vertical meter pole casts a shadow 132 cm long. Determine the height of the building. - The chimney
The chimney casts a shadow 45 meters long. The one-meter-long rod standing perpendicular to the ground has a shadow 90 cm long. Calculate the height of the chimney. - Ruler
