Let, h be the height of the man.
Given :- The length of the shadow of the man = 2.4 m
The length of the shadow of the pole = 8 m and the height of the pole = 6 m
| ∴ | height of the pole | = | height of the man |
| shadow of the pole | shadow of the man |
| ⇒ | 6 | = | h | ⇒ h = | 3 | ( 2.4 ) = 1.8 m. |
| 8 | 2.4 | 4 |
