Question

The height of the CN tower is about 550 m. What is the height of the CN tower in a scale drawing if the scale is 1:11000?

Answer 1

828With a height of more than 550 metres, the CN Tower was the tallest free-standing structure in the world until the opening of the Burj Khalifa in 2010 with 828 meters became the man-made structure more largest in history.

Answer 2

Answer: The height of CN tower in a scale drawing is 0.05 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Ratio of actual to scale drawing = 1: 11000

Actual height of CN tower = 550 m

Since there is direct variation.

So, the height of CN tower in a scale drawing would be

$\dfrac{1}{11000}=\dfrac{x}{550}\\\\x=\dfrac{550}{11000}\\\\x=0.05\ m$

Hence, the height of CN tower in a scale drawing is 0.05 m.
