Scale Drawing and Trigonometry Slides (With Notes)

This document contains sample questions about scale drawings and maps. It includes examples of calculating scale ratios from measurements on drawings versus actual dimensions. Questions ask students to determine actual distances based on scaled measurements or vice versa. There are also practice problems calculating dimensions of rooms or distances between cities given a map scale. Mixed review exercises include finding values in a similar triangle and solving basic equations.

of the number of blue marbles to the total number of marbles in terms of r,b and w.

QUESTION 2
There are 600 pupils in a school. The ratio of boys to girls in this school is 3:5. How
many girls and how many boys are in this school?
QUESTION 3
The perimeter of a rectangle is eqqual to 280 metres. The ratio of its length to
its width is 5:2. Find the area of the rectangle.

QUESTION 4
The angles of a triangle are in the ratio 1:3:8. Find the measures of the three
angles of this triangle.
SITUATION
This drawing has a scale of 1:10 means anything drawn with the size of “1” would have a
size of “10” in the real world.
Example:
A measurement of 2cm in a drawing would be 20cm in the real world.
M:N
Measurement on SCALE DRAWING : Measurement on real OBJECT
