The scale from an actual triangle to the drawing at the right is 30:1. The scale from the same triangle to Jorge’s drawing of the triangle is 10:1. Is this drawing or Jorge’s drawing larger

Respuesta :

Jorge's drawing of the triangle is greater than the first drawing.

How to analyze and interpret scales

Scales are ratios between two lengths, herein we find an example of scales, defined as ratios of real length to reduced length from drawings. In a nutshell, we have a case of augmentation scales. Mathematically speaking, each scale is represented by the corresponding formulas:

x / y = 30            (1)

x / z = 10             (2)

By (1) and (2) we find the relationship between the two lengths of the two drawings:

30 · y = 10 · z

z = 3 · y

Jorge's drawing of the triangle is greater than the first drawing.
