प्रश्न
Two poles of different heights are standing vertically on a horizontal field. At a particular time, the ratio between the lengths of their shadows is 2 :3. If the height of the smaller pole is 7.5 m, find the height of the other pole.
उत्तर
Ratio between the shadows of two poles = 2:3
∴ Height of smaller pole = 7.5 m
Height of taller pole = `(7.5 xx 3)/2`
`= 22.5/2 = 11.25`
