A certain tree casts a shadow 6 m long. At the same time, a nearby man measuring 2 m tall casts a shadow 4 m long. What is the height of the tree?(1 point)
m
Let h be the height of the tree.
According to the given information, we have the following proportion:
2/4 = h/6
Cross-multiplying to solve for h, we get:
4h = 12
h = 12/4
h = 3 m
Therefore, the height of the tree is 3 meters. Answer: \boxed{3}.
