Answer: 1728ft^2 The scale of the blueprint is <span>1in=6ft and the area of the stage is 48in^2. To convert the area, you just need to find the scale with inch^2. The equation would be:
</span>1 inch=6ft <span> inch^2= x ft^2 (6ft)^2= x ft^2 36ft^2= x ft^2 x=36
1 inch^2 =36 ft^2 area of the actual stage= 48 inch^2 * (36 ft^2/inch^2)= 1728ft^2</span>
