An example of a false equivalence. It incorrectly compares two different units of measurement that are not equal in any way.
A scale map is a map that shows a small amount of area in detail using a smaller scale. For example, a map of a city may be drawn at a 1:10,000 scale, meaning that 1 cm on the map represents 10,000 cm in the actual city. This allows for a detailed representation of streets and landmarks.
You multiply by the scale factor. For example, if the scale is 1:100,000, you would multiply by 100,000.
This means drawing something exact. For example, if in a test it was to say 'NOT drawn to scale' it would mean it isn't drawn correctly and wasn't reliable.
