Without making any measurements or calculations, estimate the direct distance between: Strahan and Queenstown. Stanley and Wynyard. Devonport and Queenstown. Wynyard and Cressy. Strahan and Cressy. On the map, 4 cm represents 50 km. We can write this as a ratio of 4 cm : 50 km.
Here are some measurements and real life sizes of objects on the plans. Fill in the boxes to complete the table: 1. A map scale is 1:1500 If the distance on the map is 500cm, what is the actual distance? 2. A-B measures 16cm and the scale is 4:4000. What is the total length in metres? 3. A man walks 1500 metres.
Find the actual distance between the two points in km. The distance between two villages is 0.625 km. Find the length in centimetres between the two villages on a map with a scale of 1:5000. The distance between two villages is 1.9 km.
The distance between the two cities on a map is 29.36cm. Calculate the scale ratio of the map to the actual distance in the form 1cm:nkm. (b) The river that travels through the state is measured on the plan to be 45cm.
We often use a ratio to show the scale of a drawing. If we have a scale of 1:5 all of the lengths in the scale drawing are 5 times smaller than in real life. If a map has a scale of 1:5000 to find the actual distance between two points we would have to multiply the distance on the map by 5000.
