Step-by-step explanation:
14: The print and the canvas should have similar dimensions to one another.
Let x be the height of the canvas.
The print is 24 by 36, and the canvas is 12 by x.
24/36 = 12/x, x = 18.
Hence the canvas is 18 inches tall.
15: Ann's room is 10 by 12.5 while her sketch of the room is 8 by 10.
Since 10/12.5 = 8/10, it is a scale drawing. The scale factor is 1:0.8.
16: Both rectangles are similar to each other.
14/9 = x/4.5, therefore x = 7.
17: There is a similar relationship between Bill's height + shadow, and the tree's height + shadow.
Bill's height : Bill's shadow length
= Tree's height : Tree's shadow length
Let y be the height of the tree.
This means that 6:4 = y:16, so y = 24.
Hence the tree is 24 feet tall.
