A triangular flag has a height of 15 inches and a base length of 25 inches. Magnolia makes a scale drawing of the flag in which the base length is 10 inches. What is the area of Magnolia’s scale drawing? Solve the problem by computing the actual area from the scale drawing. Show your work.(4 points) solve it step by step
Step 1: Calculate the scale factor
Scale factor = Actual base length / Scale base length
Scale factor = 25 / 10 = 2.5
Step 2: Calculate the actual height of the flag in the scale drawing
Scale height = Actual height / Scale factor
Scale height = 15 / 2.5 = 6 inches
Step 3: Calculate the area of the scale drawing
Area = 0.5 * base * height
Area = 0.5 * 10 * 6 = 30 square inches
Therefore, the area of Magnolia's scale drawing is 30 square inches.
