A drawing of a real object that is proportionally smaller or larger than the real object is called a
scale drawing.
A scale is a ratio between two sets of measurements.
Take a look at the two measurements being compared in the drawing on the right. We are comparing
centimeters to feet.
|
Each centimeter will represent
15 feet. So 2 cm =
30 ft; 3 cm is
45 ft.
Landscape Art is drawn as 6 cm long so ...
6 * 15 = 90 feet!
