Holt CA Course 1 5-8Scale Drawings and Scale Models NS1.3 - Use proportions to solve problems (e.g., determine the value of N if =, find the length of a side of a polygon similar to a known polygon). Use cross-multiplication as a method for solving such problems, NS1.3 - Use proportions to solve problems (e.g., determine the value of N if =, find the length of a side of a polygon similar to a known polygon). Use cross-multiplication as a method for solving such problems, understanding it as the multiplication of both sides of an equation by a multiplicative inverse. California Standards 47474747 N 21

Holt CA Course 1 5-8Scale Drawings and Scale Models This HO gauge model train is a scale model of a historic train. A scale model is a proportional model of a three-dimensional object. Its dimensions are related to the dimensions of the actual object by a ratio called the scale factor. The scale factor of an HO gauge model train is. 1 87 This means that each dimension of the model is of the corresponding dimension of the actual train. 1 87

Holt CA Course 1 5-8Scale Drawings and Scale Models A scale is the ratio between two sets of measurements. Scales can use the same units or different units. The photograph shows a scale drawing of the model train. A scale drawing is a proportional two-dimensional drawing of an object. Both scale drawings and scale models can be smaller or larger than the objects they represent.

Holt CA Course 1 5-8Scale Drawings and Scale Models Identify the scale factor. Example 1: Finding a Scale Factor RoomBlueprint Length (in.)14418 Width (in.)10813.5 blueprint length room length = 1818 1818 The scale factor is. Write a ratio. Then simplify. 18 144 = You can use the lengths or widths to find the scale factor. blueprint width room width = 1818 Write a ratio. Then simplify. 13.5 108 =

Holt CA Course 1 5-8Scale Drawings and Scale Models A photograph was enlarged and made into a poster. The poster is 20.5 inches by 36 inches. The scale factor is. Find the size of the original photograph to the nearest tenth of an inch. Example 3: Using Scale Factors to Find Unknown Lengths 1515 Think: photo poster = 1515 l 36 = 1515 5 l = 36 l = 7.2 Write a proportion to find the length l. Find the cross products. Divide.

Example 3 Continued 1515 Think: photo poster = 1515 w 20.5 = 1515 5w = 20.5 w = 4.1 Write a proportion to find the width w. Find the cross products. Divide. The photo is 7.2 in. long and 4.1 in. wide.

What is the actual distance between the cities? Example 5: Measurement Application Let d be the actual distance between the cities. 1.5 60 = 7.5 d 1.5 · d = 60 · 7.5 1.5d = 450 1.5d 1.5 = 450 1.5 d = 300 The distance between the cities is 300 miles. Write a proportion. Find the cross product. Multiply. Divide both sides by 1.5
