In blueprints an architects firm drew everything 1/24 of the actual size the windows will actually measure 4feet by 6 feet and the doors measure 12 feet by 8 feet what are the dimensions of the windows and doors

Window size in the image

length = 1/6 feet

width = 1/4 feet

Door size in the picture

length = 1/2 feet

width = 1/3 feet

Scale images are images that represent the real situation. The picture made is given a certain comparison so that it describes the real situation

This particular comparison is called scale

Examples of this scale drawing include maps and floor plans

On a map usually a scale is included

So the scale is a comparison between the distance on the map with the actual distance

an architects uses a scale of 1:24 in the picture

actual size of the windows = 4 x 6 feet

actual size of the doors: 12 x 8 feet

then:

length = scale x actual size

length = 1/24 x 4

length = 1/6

width = 1/24 x 6

width = 1/4

length = scale x actual size

length = 1/24 x 12

length = 1/2

width = 1/24 x 8

width = 1/3

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius
