7. Today’s Learning Goal Assignment Learn to make comparisons between and find dimensions of scale models and actual objects.

8. Vocabulary scale model

9. Very large and very small objects are often modeled. A scale model is a three-dimensional model that accurately represents a solid object. The scale model is mathematically similar to the solid object. A scale gives the ratio of the dimensions of the model to the actual dimensions.

10. 1 in. 1 in. 1 1 1 yd 36 in. 36 36 The scale reduces the size of the actual object by a factor of . Additional Example 1A: Analyzing and Classifying Scale Factors Tell whether each scale reduces, enlarges, or preserves the size of the actual object. A. 1 in:1 yd = = Convert: 1 yd = 36 in. Simplify.

11. 1 in. 1 in. 1 1 1 ft 12 in. 12 12 The scale reduces the size of the actual object by a factor of . Try This: Example 1A Tell whether each scale reduces, enlarges, or preserves the size of the actual object. A. 1 in:1 ft Convert: 1 ft = 12 in. Simplify. = =

12. 100 cm 1 m 10 cm 10 cm Additional Example 1B: Analyzing and Classifying Scale Factors Tell whether each scale reduces, enlarges, or preserves the size of the actual object. B. 1 m:10 cm Convert: 1 m = 100 cm. Simplify. = = 10 The scale enlarges the size of the actual object 10 times.

13. 12 in. 1 ft 1 ft 1 ft Try This: Example 1B Tell whether each scale reduces, enlarges, or preserves the size of the actual object. B. 12 in:1 ft = = 1 Convert: 12 in. = 1 ft. Simplify. The scale preserves the size of the actual object.

14. 12 in 12 in. 6 ft 72 in. The scale factor is , or 1:6. 1 1 6 6 Additional Example 2: Finding Scale Factors What scale factor relates a 12 in. scale model to a 6 ft. man? 12 in:6 ft State the scale. Write the scale factor as a ratio and simplify. = =

16. = = 1 3 in. 3 in. 1 in. 1 The scale factor for the model is . Now set up a proportion. 8 in. 8 8 2 ft 24 in. h in. = 384 in. 1 8 Additional Example 3: Finding Unknown Dimensions Given Scale Factors A model of 32 ft tall house was made using the scale 3 in:2 ft. What is the height of the model? = First find the scale factor. Convert: 32 ft = 384 in. 384 = 8h Cross multiply. 48 = h Solve for the height. The height of the model is 48 in.
