Your Question:

A museum is installing a statue that depicts a famous cartographer. The statue is being designed in two pieces so that she will hold a rolled-up map in one of her hands. The cartographer is 5'6" tall and the radius of the circular opening in her hand is 1.2 inches. The room in the museum where the statue will be displayed has a ceiling height of 16 feet. The statue will be geometrically similar to the cartographer. Calculate an appropiate height and scale factor for the statue. Use the results of those calculations to design the rolled-up map that will fit in the statue's hand. In addition to your calculations, provide an elevation drawing of the rolled-up map with all relevant measurements.
