The scale from a garden to this drawing is 8 ft to 1 cm. the scale from the same garden to another drawing is 2 ft to 1 cm. what are the lengths of the base and height of the garden in the other scale drawing?

Sagot :

The lengths of the base and height of the garden in the other scale drawing are 0.6 cm and 0.9 cm. So, option A is correct.

What is the scale factor?

The scale factor is calculated by                                                                     Scale factor = Length of the new drawing ÷ length of the original drawing

Calculation:

It is given that,

For the given triangle drawing, the scale from a garden to this drawing is 8 ft to 1 cm. The scale from the same garden to another drawing is 2 ft to 1 cm.

So, we can compute the scale factors as

8 ft to 1 cm = 1/8 cm

2 ft to 1 cm = 1/2 cm

Then the scale factor for the required lengths is 1/8 ÷ 1/2 = 1/4 cm

Thus, the required lengths are:

The base of the garden on the other scale drawing is

= 2.4 cm × 1/4

= 0.6 cm

The height of the garden on the other scale drawing is

= 3.6 cm × 1/4

= 0.9 cm

Therefore, the lengths of the base and the garden on the other scale drawing are 0.6 cm and 0.9 cm. So, option A is correct.
