Does pyramids casts shadow?
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.
How do you find the elevation of the sun?
WARNING: Do not, under any conditions, look at the sun, directly or indirectly.The find the elevation of the sun, measure the angle that an object's shadow from the sun makes. One way to do this is with a stick in the ground. Assuming the stick is perpendicular to the ground, the ratio of the stick's length to the shadow's length is the tangent of the angle of elevation. Solve for inverse tangent, and you have the angle.
How was trigonometry used in the construction of the pyramids of Egypt?
Obviously, the pyramids have a lot to do with triangles. To find the hight, length, width, volume, angle of ascent, and surface area of the pyramids, the egyptians had to use trigonometry.
Do pyramids use triangulation?
no....
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.
How can you fall into your shadow?

Do pyramids cast shadows?
Yes, pyramids do cast shadows. The shadow length and orientation depend on the position of the sun and the dimensions of the pyramid. The shadow cast by a pyramid can change throughout the day as the sun moves across the sky.
