TOPIC 12 SCALE DRAWING
A  scale drawing  is a two-dimensional drawing of an object that is proportional to the object. A  scale  gives the ratio of the dimensions in the drawing to the dimensions of the object. All dimensions are reduced or enlarged using the same scale. Scales can use the same units or different units. A  scale model  is a three-dimensional model that is proportional to the object.
Under a 1000:1 microscope view, an amoeba appears to have a length of 8 mm. What is its actual length? Additional Example 1: Finding Actual  Measurements 1000     x  = 1     8 The cross products are equal. x  = 0.008 The actual length of the amoeba is 0.008 mm. Solve the proportion. Write a proportion using the scale. Let x be the actual length of the amoeba. 1000 1 = 8 mm x  mm
Under a 10,000:1 microscope view, a fiber appears to have length of 1 mm. What is its actual length? Check It Out!  Example 1 10,000     x  = 1     1 The cross products are equal. x  = 0.0001 The actual length of the fiber is 0.0001 mm. Solve the proportion. Write a proportion using the scale. Let x be the actual length of the fiber.   10,000 1 = 1 mm x  mm
A.  The length of an object on a scale drawing is 2 cm, and its actual length is 8 m. The scale is 1 cm: __ m.  What is the scale? Additional Example 2: Using Proportions to Find Unknown Scales = 1    8 =  x      2 Find the cross products. 8 = 2 x Divide both sides by 2. The scale is 1 cm:4 m. 4 =  x 1 cm x  m 2 cm 8 m Set up proportion using scale length  . actual length
The scale  a : b  is read “ a  to  b .” For example, the scale 1 cm:4 m is read “one centimeter to four meters.”  Reading Math
The length of an object on a scale drawing is 4 cm, and its actual length is 12 m. The scale is 1 cm: __ m.  What is the scale? Check It Out!  Example 2 = 1    12 =  x      4 Find the cross products. 12 = 4 x Divide both sides by 4. The scale is 1 cm:3 m. 3 =  x 1 cm x  m 4 cm 12 m Set up proportion using scale length  . actual length
The ratio of a length on a scale drawing or model to the corresponding length on the actual object is called the  scale factor .   When finding a scale factor, you must use the same measurement units. You can use a scale factor to find unknown dimensions.
A model of a 27 ft tall house was made using a scale of 2 in.:3 ft. What is the height of the model? Additional Example 3: Using Scale Factors to Find Unknown Dimensions Find the scale factor. = 324 = 18 h Convert: 27 ft = 324 in. Find the cross products. 18 =  h The height of the model is 18 in. Divide both sides by 18. The scale factor for the model is  . Now set up a proportion.  1 18 2 in. 3 ft = 2 in. 36 in. = 1 in. 18 in. 1 18 1 18 = h  in. 324 in.
A model of a 24 ft tall bridge was made using a scale of 4 in.:2 ft. What is the height of the model? Check It Out!  Example 3 Find the scale factor. = 288 = 6 h Convert: 24 ft = 288 in. Find the cross products. 48 =  h The height of the model is 48 in. Divide both sides by 6. The scale factor for the model is  . Now set up a proportion.  1 6 4 in. 2 ft = 4 in. 24 in. = 1 in. 6 in. 1 6 1 6 = h  in. 288 in.
A DNA model was built using the scale 5 cm: 0.0000001 mm. If the model of the DNA chain is 20 cm long, what is the length of the actual chain?  Additional Example 4:  Life Science Application The scale factor for the model is 500,000,000. This means the model is 500 million times larger than the actual chain. Find the scale factor. 5 cm  0.0000001 mm 50 mm  0.0000001 mm = = 500,000,000
Additional Example 4 Continued = Set up a proportion. 500,000,000 x  = 1(20) x  = 0.00000004 The length of the DNA chain is 4    10 -8  cm. Find the cross products. Divide both sides by 500,000,000. 500,000,000 1 20 cm x  cm
A model was built using the scale 2 cm:0.01 mm. If the model is 30 cm long, what is the length of the actual object?  Check It Out!  Example 4 The scale factor for the model is 2,000. This means the actual object is two thousand times larger than the model. Find the scale factor. 2 cm  0.01 mm 20 mm  0.01 mm = = 2,000
Check It Out!  Example 4 Continued = Set up a proportion. 2,000 x  = 1(30) x  = 0.015 The length of the actual object is 1.5    10 -2  cm. Find the cross products. Divide both sides by 2,000. 2,000 1 30 cm x  cm
