To answer this, you will start with the scale of 1 in:4 ft. I suggest writing in fraction form -see picture.

Make this equivalent to x:15 ft (also in fraction form).

To set this up as an equation use cross products (multiply the diagonal sides)-see picture.

Then solve the equation by dividing both sides by 4.

Her rotors are 3.75 inches in her drawing.

Part B:

Triangle QPR is a right triangle with right angle QPR.

Triangle SPR is a right triangle with right angle PSR.

Angle QPR of triangle QPR corresponds to and is congruent to angle PSR of triangle PSR.

Angle R of triangle QSR corresponds to and is congruent to angle R of triangle PSR.

The similar triangles by AA Similarity are

triangle QPR and triangle PSR

How to write 3 9/100 as a decimal?
Artemon [7]
3 9/100 would be written as a decimal like this, 3.09. You say three and nine one hundredths. The 9 has to be in the hundredths place, so you put a 0 in front of it. And since the 3 is hole, you put it in front of the decimal point.
