4.1.2 Scale Drawings, How can I use a scale drawing? p192
Reason abstractly and quantitatively to evaluate ratios in order to determine similarity. Attend to precision you draw representations of problems and compare ratios. LO: I will use lengths and areas to solve problems involving scale drawings of geometric figures. Introduction In a scale drawing, it is important to decide on the unit of measure. Maps made in the United States usually represent distances in miles, but they certainly cannot use actual miles as the unit of measure. Otherwise, a map of Pennsylvania would be over 250 miles long and 450 miles wide! A map includes a scale, which shows the units in which the map is drawn. An example is shown at right. Maps are examples of scale drawings. They are reduced versions of the original regions. A map is similar to the original region, because it has the same shape. Because of this, maps conveniently allow users to determine distances between two points.

Did she really measure 14 miles?
4-11 Suppose Eulalia uses a map of Pennsylvania to determine that Valley Forge is 14 miles from downtown Philadelphia. Did she really measure 14 miles? Explain how she probably determined the distance.

4.1.2 Scale Drawings, How can I use a scale drawing? p192 7.G.1 Reason abstractly and quantitatively to evaluate ratios in order to determine similarity. Attend to precision you draw representations of problems and compare ratios. 4.1.2 will investigate how to enlarge and reduce figures so that they maintain their same shape. Your work with similar figures and scale drawings, such as maps and blueprints, will lay the foundation for much of the rest of the chapter. original : copy ~ original : copy Find the scale factor from the larger rectangle to the smaller rectangle, if the two rectangles are similar. a. 5:1 b. 5:6 c. 6:5 d. 6:7
