∙ 8y agoA reference point on the map is allocated to a reference point from the "real world". For every other point in the real, the direction of its image from the map's reference point is the same as the direction of the point in reality but the distance is the true distance divided by the scale factor. When all points have been so plotted, you will have a map or scale drawing.
Because scaling is a linear transformation, the image of a straight lines will be a straight line so it is sufficient to find the images of the end points and join them together - rather than find the image of each point on the line.

The answer depends on what aspect of the scale drawing you wish to calculate.
# is the ratio of the demensions in the drawing to the corresponding actual dimensions. The scale factor for a scale drawing is the ratio of the dimensions in the drawing to the corresponding acual bimensions.
1cm = 78.6
Not all drawings are done to scale, sketches of buildings and people for instance. However if it is a technical drawing the draughtsman/woman will state on the drawing the scale used.
Hi
The scale factor M is used to convert the measurements on the scale to the actual distances. By multiplying the measurement on the scale by the scale factor M, you can find the true distance in meters. This allows you to accurately measure distances using a scaled-down representation on the map or drawing.
The statement of scale is a formal document that outlines the specific size or dimensions of a map or architectural drawing. It typically includes a scale bar or ratio to indicate the relationship between the measurements on the map or drawing and the actual physical distances they represent.
It is the scale ratio or scale factor

The scale gives the ratio that compares the measurements of the drawing or model to the measurements of the real object. Scale factor is a scale written as a ratio without units in simplest from.
Cross Products is the ratio between two sets of measurements.
A distance scale is a representation of the relationship between distances on a map or diagram and the actual distances they represent in the real world. It is typically expressed as a ratio or a bar scale, allowing users to convert measurements between the map and reality.
The scale on a drawing represents the ratio of the size of the drawing to the actual size of the object. It must be considered to ensure accurate measurements and proportions in the drawing. Using the correct scale helps convey the information clearly and allows others to interpret the drawing accurately.
