Triangle-shaped 30011

Determine the map's scale if the 1.6 km, 2.4 km, and 2.7 km triangle-shaped forests are drawn on the map as a triangle with sides of 32 mm, 48 mm, and 54 mm.

Correct answer:

M =  50000

Step-by-step explanation:

a1=1.6 km m=1.6 1000  m=1600 m a2=32 mm m=32:1000  m=0.032 m a1<b1<c1 a2<b2<c2  M=a1/a2=1600/0.032=50000
