Kenzie notices that her neighbor has a window on her house that is in the shape of a triangle the height of the window is 10 in and the base of the window is 6 in she makes a scale drawing of the Triangular shape window if the base of her scale drawing is 3 inches what is the height of her scale drawing
To find the height of the scale drawing, we can set up a proportion using the dimensions of the actual window and the scale drawing.
Actual window:
Height = 10 inches
Base = 6 inches
Scale drawing:
Base = 3 inches
Height = x (unknown)
We can set up the following proportion:
10/6 = x/3
Cross multiplying, we get:
6x = 30
x = 30/6
x = 5
Therefore, the height of Kenzie's scale drawing of the triangular window is 5 inches.
