Answer 1

Given:

The garden is a right triangle with base 10m and height 15m.

To draw:

The garden such that 1 unit on the grid below represents 2 m.

Solution:

We have,

1 unit = 2 m

So,

1 m = 0.5 units

Using this conversion, we get

10 m = 5 units

15 m = 7.5 units

Therefore, the base garden on the grid is 5 units and height is 7.5 units as shown below.
