Joel makes a 1/25 scale drawing of a triangle cell the triangles is his drawing is 2 ft high with a base of 1 ft what is the area of the cell

Answer 1

To find the area of the actual triangle cell, we first need to find the dimensions of the triangle in real life.

Since Joel's drawing is at a 1/25 scale, we can multiply the dimensions of the triangle in the drawing by 25 to get the actual dimensions.

Height of the actual triangle = 2 ft * 25 = 50 ft
Base of the actual triangle = 1 ft * 25 = 25 ft

Now, we can use the formula for the area of a triangle:

Area = (base * height) / 2
Area = (25 ft * 50 ft) / 2
Area = 1250 square feet

Therefore, the area of the triangle cell is 1250 square feet.
