To find the perimeter of the actual terrace, we first need to determine the dimensions of the terrace in the scale drawing. However, since the scale of the drawing hasn't been provided, I will explain how to proceed if you have that information.
1. Identify the dimensions (length and width) of the terrace in the scale drawing.
2. Determine the scale of the drawing (for example, 1 inch = 5 feet).
3. Convert the dimensions from the scale drawing to actual dimensions using the scale.
4. Use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:
\[
\text{Perimeter} = 2 \times (\text{length} + \text{width})
\]
5. Calculate the perimeter using the actual dimensions.
If you have the scaled dimensions and the scale ratio, please share that, and I can help you calculate the actual perimeter of the terrace.
