Julie made a scale drawing of a helicopter. She used the scale 1 in = 4 ft. If the helicopter’s rotors are 15 feet long, how lon
g are they in her drawing?
Solve the equation to find out how long the rotors are in her drawing.
Please show your work, I will mark brainiest and send thanks on their profile if it is correct!
1 answer:
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.

Answer:
Since it's a right angled triangle
Hypotenuse = h
h² = 7²+24²
h= √49 + 576
h = √625
h= 25
Therefore hypotenuse is 25
Hope this helps.
