<span>The precambrian period was a time period that happened billions of years ago. Actually, 4.6 billion years, to be exact. The Earth started to form during this period. Layers of rock, elements of the land and waters, and many other things were developed during this time. The atmosphere had a mind of its own, per se, during this time period. It went through many different changes. The atmosphere went from being extremely cold and galactic to warming and having volcanoes, which allowed for an expansion of life forms.</span>
<h2>Answer:</h2>
This problem can be solved using trigonomtry, assuming that the figure formed by Adam's shadow and Adam himself is a Right Triangle (as shown in the figure attached).
According to this, the distance from the tip of the shadow to the top of Adam's head is the hypotenuse
of the triangle, and we already know Adam's height and the angle of elevation. So, the trigonometric function that best works in this case is sine:
Where the opposite leg is the side of the triangle that is opposite to the
angle.
In this especific case:
(1)
In order to know the value of the hypotenuse we have to find
from equation (1):


Rounding:
>>>>>This is the distance from the tip of the shadow to the top of Adam's head
