Yes, pyramids cast shadows just like any other solid object. The shape and size of the shadow depend on the angle and intensity of the light source, typically from the sun. During different times of the day, the shadows will vary in length and direction, creating interesting patterns on the ground around the pyramid.

Does pyramids shadow fall on ground?
Yes, the shadow of a pyramid does fall on the ground. The angle of the sun's rays determines the length and direction of the shadow, which can vary throughout the day and across seasons. As the sun moves, the shadow will change in size and position, but it will always be cast onto the ground.
what is the angle of elevation of the sun when a flagpole 22.5 m high casts a shadow 32.4 m long?

A building casts a shadow that is 348 meters long At the same time a person who is 2 meters tall casts a shadow that is 6 meters long How tall is the building?
Using Similar Triangles or Ratios. 348:6 :: x:2 Form a fractional equation. 348/6 = x/2 X = 2(348)/6 x = 348/3 x = 116 m NB THe colons (:) are mathematical shorthand for 'as to'. Used in ratios.
When the shadow of a flagpole is 31.2m long a 1.6m fencepost casts a shadow 2.6m long how tall is the flagpole?
First, find the ratio of fencepost-height : shadow which is 1.6 : 2.6 . This can also be written as a fraction, 1.6/2.6 . Then, multiply the flagpole's shadow by this ratio: 31.2 x 1.6/2.6 = 19.2 The flagpole is 19.2m high. The trigonometry way: On the imaginary right angled triangle formed by the fencepost and its shadow, let the angle at which the hypotenuse meets the ground = θ sinθ = 1.6/2.6 sinθ = /31.2 x/31.2 = 1.6/2.6 2.6x = 31.2 * 1.6 = 49.92 x = 19.2 The flagpole is 19.2m high.

When the earth casts a shadow on the moon what shape is it?
When the Earth casts a shadow on the Moon, the shape of the shadow is typically circular. This occurs during a lunar eclipse when the Earth is positioned directly between the Sun and the Moon, blocking sunlight from reaching the Moon. The circular shadow results from the Earth's spherical shape, which consistently casts a round shadow regardless of its orientation.
