Here is a scale drawing of a window frame that uses a scale of 1 cm to 6 inches.Create another scale drawing of the window frame that uses a scale of 1 cm to 12 inches.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Below is the rectangle in the attachment.

Current scale:

1 cm : 6 inches

If the dimensions of the rectangle is:

Length = a cm

Width = b cm

Using the scale:

Length = a × 6 inches

Width = b × 6 inches

Using the same dimensions of the rectangle is:

Length = a cm

Width = b cm

Using the scale:

Length = a × 12 inches

Width = b × 12 inches

Note that there is an enlargement of the rectangle to form the new rectangle. The length and width of new rectangle drawn will be 2 × the length and width of the rectangle seen below.
