Chapter 6.6, Problem 8PPS

To determine

Scale drawing of the skate park that has a scale 1/4 in =8 yd. using given dimensions.

Answer to Problem 8PPS

  

Explanation of Solution

Given: It is given

  $\frac{1}{4}\text{ inch}=\text{ 8 yd}$

Scale drawing of the skate park that has a scale 1/4 in =8 yd will have length=1.5in= 48yards and breadth=.75in= yards

  $\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{4}\text{ in}=\text{ 8 yd}\\ \text{therefore}\text{.}\\ \text{1 yd}=\frac{\text{1}}{32}inch\\ length=48\text{ yards}\\ \text{legnth}=\text{48}\times \frac{1}{32}\text{ in}\\ \text{length}=1.5\text{ in}\\ \text{breadth}=\text{ 24 yd}\\ \text{breadth}=\text{24}\times \frac{1}{32}\text{ in}\\ \text{breadth}=\text{.75 in}\end{array}$

Scale drawing of the skate park that has a scale 1/4 in =8 yd is shown in below figure
