54/55 Answer to ‘Tree Time’ Page 45 1. Look out for the shadow of the tree. Drive a small stick into the floor and measure the shadow of the stick. Also, measure the height of the stake above the ground. Now measure the length of the tree’s shadow. Compare your measurements. If the shadow of the stick is double its height, then the shadow of the tree is double the height of the tree!
