Hank is planning his vegetable garden. He has created the scale drawing at right. The actual area for the tomatoes will be feet
1 answer:
The area of the real vegetable garden is 225 feet².
<h3>What is the area of the vegetable garden?</h3>A scale drawing is a reduced image of another larger image. A scale drawing is sometimes needed to visualise a project that is about to be undertaken. A scale is reduced by constant dimensions.
The garden has a rectangular shape as it has four right angles and the length and width are of different sizes.
Area of a rectangle = length x width
In order to determine the area of the real vegetable garden, the scale of the drawing has to be determined.
Scale = original length / length of the scale diagram
12 feet / 2 inches = 6 feet : 1 inch
Length of the scale drawing = 2 inches
Width of the scale drawing = 1 5/8 + 1.5 inches : 1.625 + 1.5 = 3.125 inches
Length of the real garden = 12 feet
Width of the real garden = 3.125 x 6 = 18.75
Area = 18.75 x 12 = 225 feet²
Here is the complete question:
Here Hank is planning his vegetable garden. He has created the scale drawing below. He is planning for the actual area for the tomatoes to be 12 feet by 9 feet. All angles are right angles. If the horizontal length of the zucchini plot shown in the diagram is 1 5/8 inches, what is the area of the real vegetable garden in square feet?
