There is a frog, dead in the middle of an island. If he swims north, the distance to the mainland is 2 meters. If he swims south, the distance to the mainland is 3 meters. If he swims east or west, the distance is 4 meters. Which way does he swim?
An ant gets onto one end of a tight rope that is 1 meter long. The ant is traveling at 1 centimeter per second, but the entire rope is being stretched an extra 1 meter (1,000 centimeters) a second (it can be stretched forever).
Will the ant ever reach the other end of the rope?
8 Meters
If we look at the green bar we see that its real height is 2/3 of its shadow. So that means we need to find 2 shadows length for the red bar, the uninterruped part and the one on the wall. Since we now know the formula for the floor shadow - real height is 2/3 of it - meaning the part that makes that shadow is 4 meters long. Then we have to add the part on the wall which is straight up, it has no formula so we just add those 4 meters on the wall to the 4 meters we got from multiplying 2/3 by 6 meters and we have 4 meters + 4 meters = 8 meterss
