Here is the problem:
How long of a shadow would light 30 feet off the ground make when shining on an object 10 feet tall that is 20 feet away from the light? Answer by scott8148(6628) (Show Source):
the length of the vertical side of the right angle is 30ft
20ft along the horizontal side (the side on the ground) is the 10 foot object
some distance x (the length of the shadow) beyond the 10 foot object, is the end of the horizontal side
the smaller triangle, with the 10ft vertical side and the x horizontal side is similar to
__ the larger triangle, with the 30ft vertical side and the 20+x horizontal side
