Abuilding with a height of 40 m casts a shadow that is 30 m long. a statue next to the building casts a shadow that is 6 m long. how tall is the statue

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.

only 10/60 isn't equivalent

hope this : )
