To find the length of the shorter side of the parallelogram in Tiyane's scale drawing, we first need to determine the scale factor by dividing the actual length of the longer side by its length in the drawing:
scale factor = actual length / length in drawing
scale factor = 22.5 / 3
scale factor = 7.5
Now we can use the scale factor to find the length of the shorter side in the drawing:
shorter side in drawing = actual length / scale factor
shorter side in drawing = 9 / 7.5
shorter side in drawing = 1.2 inches
Therefore, the length of the parallelogram's shorter side in Tiyane's scale drawing is 1.2 inches.
Tiyane makes a scale drawing of the parallelogram. The longer side of the parallelogram is 22.5 inches in her drawing. What is the length of the parallelogram’s shorter side in Tiyane’s scale drawing? the scale factor is 9-inch hight 3 inch with
