Mei drew a scale drawing of an apartment. The living room, which is 8 meters long in real life, is 4 millimeters long in the drawing. What is the drawing's scale factor?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

\text{Drawing}:\text{Real Life} = 1:2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Real life = 8m = 8000mm

Drawing = 4mm

we can take the ratio of the two values (but be sure that they both have the same units, this is why it is necessary to convert 8m to 8000mm OR you can convert 4mm to its value in meters)

\frac{\text{Real Life}}{\text{Drawing}} = (8000)/(4)

\frac{\text{Real Life}}{\text{Drawing}} = (2000)/(1)

we can also write this as:

\text{Real Life}:\text{Drawing} = 2000:1

so the drawing's scale factor is:

\text{Drawing}:\text{Real Life} = 1:2000

This means that if length of the living room in the drawing is multiplied by 2000 it will be of the same length as the living room in real life.

Quadrilateral DEFG has vertices at D(6,1), E(2,4), F(-5,4) and G(-1,1). What is the area of the quadrilateral?

Answers

Answer:

Area of the quadilateral = 35 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the quadilateral DEFG are given as

D(6,1), E(2,4), F(-5,4) and G(-1,1).

To obtain the area, we need the length of each of the quadilateral's sides.

The length of each side is the distance between the coordinates given.

The distance between two coordinates (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given as

d = √[(y₁ - y₂)² + (x₁ - x₂)²]

The lengths of the quadilateral's sides include DE, EF, FG and GD

DE = distance between D(6,1) and E(2,4)

DE = √[(1 - 4)² + (6 - 2)²]

DE = √(9 + 16) = 5 units

EF = distance between E(2,4) and F(-5,4)

EF = √[(4 - 4)² + (2 - -5)²]

EF = √(0 + 49) = 7 units

FG = distance between F(-5,4) and G(-1,1).

FG = √[(1 - 4)² + (-1 - -5)²]

FG = √(9 + 16) = 5 units

GD = distance between G(-1,1) and D(6,1)

DE = √[(1 - 1)² + (-1 - 6)²]

DE = √(0 + 49) = 7 units

The dimensions of the quadilateral show that it is a rectangle.

The area of a rectangle = (length) × (width)

Length = 7 units

Width = 5 units

Area of the quadilateral = 7 × 5 = 35 square units.
