A standard United States flag has a dimension of 3‘ x 5‘. Which of the following could be scaled versions of this flag? select all that appl
2‘ x 4‘
30‘ x 50’
6‘ x 15‘
15‘ x 25‘
1‘ x 2‘
The scaled versions of the flag should maintain the same aspect ratio (width to length) as the original flag.
Let's calculate the aspect ratio of the original flag:
Aspect ratio = width/length = 3/5 = 0.6
Now we can check the aspect ratios of the given options:
Aspect ratio of 2' x 4' = 2/4 = 0.5 (not the same as the original flag)
Aspect ratio of 30' x 50' = 30/50 = 0.6 (same as the original flag)
Aspect ratio of 6' x 15' = 6/15 = 0.4 (not the same as the original flag)
Aspect ratio of 15' x 25' = 15/25 = 0.6 (same as the original flag)
Aspect ratio of 1' x 2' = 1/2 = 0.5 (not the same as the original flag)
Therefore, the scaled versions of the standard United States flag are:
30' x 50' and 15' x 25'
So the correct options are:
30' x 50'
15' x 25'
