    Answer:16 ft 4 in

    Step-by-step explanation:we want to find the height of the pole.

    It's shadow is 2yards (6ft) long,

    3 x the boy's shadow of 2ft long

    Because the length of a shadow corresponds to the height of the object casting it, the poles height would be 3x the height of the boy.

    His height is 5'6" (66")

    66*3=196

    196" = 16'4"
