Charles places a mirror on the ground 63 feet from the base of a tree. He
walks backwards until he can see the top of the tree in the middle of the
mirror. At that point, Jason's eyes are 6 feet above the ground and he is 9 feet
from the image in the mirror. What is the height of the tree?

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl

i don't think there is enough
