Laura pose la question : A lamppost line EC casts a shadow line AC. A 30 cm ruler line DB has been moved from A so that it's shadow falls just within the shadow of the lamppost.
Suppose the length of the ruler's shadow is 42 cm. What is the slope of the imaginary line AE?
Suppose the lamppost's shadow is 15 m. long. How tall is the lamppost?

Marcus pose la question : Une pierre tombe au fond d'un puit, à 5 secondes on entend un son (de la pierre). Calculer la hauteur de chute de cette pierre en tenant compte de la vitesse du son = 340m.s-1
Il faut savoir que pour la chute libre v= g.t ; h = 1/2 g.t2 ; v = 2g.h
g intensité du champs de pesanteur = 10 ; h hauteur de chute.
Ben pose la question : A trapezium has a perimeter of 22cm. The 2 parallel sides are such that the length of one is three times the length of the other. The non-parallel sides are equal. If the distance between the parallel sides is 4cm, find the lengths of the 4 sides. Claude Tardif lui répond.
