The sides of the triangle will be 1.5" , 2" and 2.5". The scale drawing is attached.
Step-by-step explanation:
The original measures of the triangle are:
6 inches
8 inches
10 inches
In order to transform the measures to the scale 1:4 we have to divide each measure by 4:
<u>Scale dimensions (1:4)</u>
6 inches÷4= 1.5 inches
8 inches÷4= 2 inches
10 inches÷4= 2.5 inches
We make a drawing with this measures. (The drawing is attached.
