The Leaning Tower of Pisa is the bell tower of the cathedral in the Italian city of Pisa, which is known worldwide for its lean, and its unstable foundation. It is one of the most iconic buildings in Italy, and it is also thought to be the location of Galileo's experiments in 1589. Galileo is said to have dropped two cannonballs of different masses from the tower in order to test Aristotle's laws of falling objects.
Here is an example: if we have a rectangle that has a length 3 and a height of 4 and the scale drawing with a scale factor of 2, how many times bigger is the scale drawings area? The original shape is 3 by 4 so we multiply those to find the area of 12 square units.
