Answer :

We will use the ratio method to solve this question

∵ A giraffe is 18 feet tall

∵ The shadow of it is 12 feet

∵ Corry casts a shadow 4 feet

→ By using the ratio method

→ Tall: Shadow

→ 18 : 12

→ h : 4

→ By using cross multiplication

h x 12 = 18 x 4

∴ 12h = 72

→ Divide both sides by 12 to find h

h = 6

Corry is 6 feet tall
