Considering the definition of map and scale, an actual distance of 269.59 km represent a scale distance of 5.7 inches .

<h3>Definition of map and scale</h3>

A map is a representation of a place, at a size smaller than the real size.

The scale of a cartographic representation is the relationship of similarity between the real dimensions of the geographical space represented and those of its image on the map. That is, the scale is defined as the proportionality relationship that exists between a distance measured on the ground and its corresponding measurement on the map.

One way to represent the scale is by a fraction, which indicates the proportion between the distance on a map and its corresponding distance in reality:

Scale=\frac{distance on the map}{distance in reality}

<h3>Actual distance in this case</h3>

In this case, you know that a scale distance of 3.5 inches on a map represent an actual distance of 175 km.

To know the real distance that represents a scale distance of 5.7 inches, as the scale ratio is the same as in the previous case, it is expressed:

\frac{3.7 inches}{175 km}=\frac{5.7 inches}{distance in reality}

Solving:

\frac{3.7 inches}{175 km}×distance in reality= 5.7 inches

distance in reality= \frac{5.7 inches}{\frac{3.7 inches}{175 km}}

<u><em>distance in reality= 269.59 km</em></u>

In summary, an actual distance of 269.59 km represent a scale distance of 5.7 inches .

3² +4² = 5²,
AlekseyPX

Answer:

They are all true

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 3² +4² = 5²

3x3 + 4x4 = 5x5

  9   +  16  =  25

25 = 25

-----------------------

2. 6² + 8² = 10²

36 + 64 = 100

100 = 100

------------------

3. 9² + 12² = 15²

81 + 144 = 225

225 = 225

-------------------

4. 5² +12² =13²

25 + 144 = 169

169 =169

-------------------
