Construct a scale of 1:4, to show centimeters and long enough to measure up to 5 decimeters. • Length of the scale = R.F. max. length = ¼ 5 dm = 12.5 cm. • Draw a line 12.5 cm long and divide it in to 5 equal divisions, each representing 1 dm. • Mark 0 at the end of the first division and 1, 2, 3 and 4 at the end
Once you know the image scale, you can measure the size of any feature in the image in units of millimeters. Then multiply it by the image scale from Step 3 to get the actual size of the feature in meters to two significant figures. Question 1: How long is each of the three wings of the Bellaggio Hotel in meters?
