a building with a height of 32m casts a shadow that is 20m long. a person standing casts a shadow that is 1.2 m long how tall is the person

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Most of the information's required for solving the question is already given in the question.
Height of the building that casts a shadow of 20 m = 32 m
Then
Height of the man that casts a shadow of 1.2 m = (32/20) * 1.2 meter
                                                                             = 3.2 * 1.2 meter
                                                                             = 3.84 meter
So the actual height of the person casting a shadow of 1.2 meter is 3.84 meters. I hope that the procedure used for solving the problem is easy enough for you to understand. You can definitely use this method in future for solving problems of similar type without requiring any additional help from outside.

What did the athlete order when he needed a huge helping of mashed potatoes

Answers

It’s generally recommended that athletes consume approximately 30 percent of their daily calories. It is not at all the fixed amount of calories since different athletes playing in different type of games require different amount of calories. For those athletes that require more than 1 hour of continuous activity like the marathon runners, the amount of calorie required to consume far exceeds 30 percent. In case of normal games player activity normally does not continue for an hour. They do get breaks in the middle.
