28. Van Gogh’s painting Starry Night measures 92 cm long by 73 cm high. You buy a poster that shows an enlargement of the painting. The poster measures 120 cm long by 100 cm high. Is the poster an accurate representation of the painting? (Hint: Is the poster similar to the painting?) (2 points)
Let's set up a proportion and see.
92/120 = 73/100
Cross multiply:
9200 = 8760
The poster is not an accurate representation.
Here's another way of solving this problem.

Painting best be described
To determine if the poster is an accurate representation of the painting, we need to compare the proportions of the two. Proportions refer to the relative size of different parts of an object or artwork.
First, let's calculate the aspect ratio of both the painting and the poster. The aspect ratio is the ratio of the longer side to the shorter side.
For the painting:
Aspect ratio = 92 cm / 73 cm = 1.26
And for the poster:
Aspect ratio = 120 cm / 100 cm = 1.2
Based on the aspect ratios, we can see that the aspect ratio of the painting is 1.26, whereas the aspect ratio of the poster is 1.2. These ratios are not the same, indicating that the proportions of the poster are slightly different from the original painting.
Therefore, we can conclude that the poster is not an accurate representation of the painting because the proportions are not the same. The poster may have been stretched or resized, resulting in the distortion of the artwork.
