1 Scale Drawings

2 Scale – The ratio that compares the measurements of the real object and its model. EX: 1 in = 6 ft
Scale factor – written as a ratio without measurements and in simplest form EX: the scale factor of 1 in = 6 ft is 1/72

3 EX1) EX2) Identify the scale factor. Actual Model Length (in.) 12 2
Wing span (in.) 18 3 EX1) model length actual length 2 12 = Write a ratio using one of the dimensions. 1 6 = Simplify. EX2) The scale is 1 inch = 3 feet. What is the scale factor? To eliminate units convert 3 feet to inches. Conversion factor is 1 foot = 12 inches 1 inch 3 feet 1 inch 36 inches = 1 36 =

4 EX3) = = Find the Scale Factor from the following shape small large
original Model original small Model large 3 3 12 12 3 Model = 12 Model = 12 Original 3 Original 1 4 Scale factor = Scale factor = 4 1

5 EX4) A photograph was enlarged and made into a poster. The poster is 20.5 inches by 36 inches. The scale factor is 5 . Find the size of the photograph. 1. Draw a picture. 2. poster 20.5 Write a proportion to find the length l and width w. photo w l 36 3. Solve the proportion. poster photo 5 1 36 l poster photo 5 1 20.5 w Think: = = = = 36 X 1= 36 20.5 X 1= 20.5 36 ÷ 5 = 7.2 20.5 ÷ 5 = 4.1
