Drawing in Different Scales A scale drawing of a meeting hall is drawn on centimeter grid paper as shown: The scale is 1 cm:3 m. Suppose you redraw the rectangle on centimeter grid paper using a scale of 1 cm:6 m. In the new scale, 1 cm represents more than/less than 1 cm in the old scale. The measurement of each side of the new drawing will be twice/half as long as the measurement of the original drawing. Draw the rectangle for the new scale 1 cm:6 m. Reflect Find the actual length of each side of the hall using the original drawing. Then find the actual length of each side of the hall using your new drawing and the new scale. How do you know your answers are correct?
