The image shows a tablet at a restaurant in the shape of a trapezoid the restaurant owners want to determine if t r a p e z o i d a l table will fit comfortably into the rest of the dining room the owners make a scare drum of the dining room and a scale drawing of the table at the greatest length of the table is represented in scale drawing by 1.5 ft what will the length of the other side of the table be right your answer in Desmond side link 3 ft 6 ft 3 ft 3 ft
The length of the other side of the trapezoidal table can be determined using the scale factor. Since the greatest length of the table is represented as 1.5 ft in the scale drawing, we can use this to find the length of the other side.
Let's use the scale factor:
1.5 ft (greatest length in scale drawing) = x ft (actual length of the other side of the table)
1.5/x = 6/3
1.5/x = 2
x = 1.5/2
x = 0.75 ft
Therefore, the length of the other side of the trapezoidal table is 0.75 ft.
