- A boy
A boy of height 1.7m is standing 30m away from the flagstaff on the same level ground. He observes that the angle of deviation of the top of the flagstaff is 30 degrees. Calculate the height of the flagstaff. - 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? - MO Z9–I–2 - 2017
VO is a longer base in the VODY trapezoid, and the diagonal intersection K divides the VD line in a 3:2 ratio. The area of the KOV triangle is 13.5 cm². Find the area of the entire trapezoid. - Garage
There are two laths in the garage opposite one another: one 2 meters long and the second 3 meters long. They fall against each other and stay against the opposite walls of the garage. Both laths cross 70 cm above the garage floor. How wide is the garage?

At a distance of 10 m from the river bank, they measured the base AB = 50 m parallel to the bank. Point C on the other bank of the river is visible from point A at an angle of 32°30' and from point B at an angle of 42°15'. Calculate the width of the river - 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. - Similarity coefficient
The triangles ABC and A'B'C' are similar to the similarity coefficient 2. The sizes of the angles of the triangle ABC are α = 35° and β = 48°. Find the magnitudes of all angles of triangle A'B'C'. - Display case
Place a glass shelf at the height of 1m from the bottom of the display case in the cabinet. How long platter will we place at this height? The display case is a rectangular triangle with 2 m and 2.5 m legs. - Thales
Thales is 1 m from the hole. The eyes are 150 cm above the ground and look into the hole with a diameter of 120 cm, as shown. Calculate the depth of the hole.
- Hexagon cut pyramid
Calculate the volume of a regular 6-sided cut pyramid if the bottom edge is 30 cm, the top edge is 12 cm, and the side edge length is 41 cm. - Coefficient 4872
Find out if the triangles ABC and A'B'C' are similar, determine the similarity coefficient and write the similarity: a = 40 mm, b = 48 mm, c = 32 mm a´ = 60 mm, b´ = 50 mm, c´ = 40 mm - Sides of the triangle
The sides of the triangle ABC have a length of 4 cm, 5 cm, and 7 cm. Construct triangle A'B'C', similar to triangle ABC, which has a circumference of 12 cm. - V-belt
Calculate the length of the V-belt when the diameter of the pulleys is: D1 = 600 mm D2 = 120 mm d = 480 mm (distance between pulley axes) - Tree shadow
The shadow of the tree is 16 meters long. The shadow of a two-meter-high tourist sign beside standing is 3.2 meters long. What height has a tree (in meters)?
- Sun rays
If the sun's rays are at an angle of 60°, then the famous Great Pyramid of Egypt (which is now 137.3 meters high) has a 79.3 m long shadow. Calculate the current height of the neighboring Chephren pyramid, whose shadow is measured at the same time at 78.8 - Ruler
Peter is looking at John over a ruler that keeps at an arm's distance of 60 cm from the eye, and on the ruler, John measured the height of 15 mm. John is 2 meters high. How far from Peter stands John? - 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? - Two similar triangles

Determine the size of the smallest internal angle of a right triangle whose sides constitute the sizes of consecutive members of arithmetic progressions.
The man, 180 cm tall, walks along the seafront directly to the lighthouse. The male shadow caused by the beacon light is initially 5.4 meters long. When the man approaches the lighthouse by 90 meters, its shadow is shorter by 3 meters. How tall is the ligDo you have homework that you need help solving?
