I currently cannot view images, but I can guide you through the process of resizing a scale drawing.
To convert the scale from 1 box = 5 feet to 1 box = 10 feet, you simply need to adjust the dimensions accordingly. Since the new scale is double the former scale, you should double the length of each side of the objects in the drawing.
Here's how to do it step by step:
-
Measure the original lengths of the features in Tomas's front yard according to the original scale (1 box = 5 feet).
-
Calculate the new lengths using the new scale (1 box = 10 feet) by taking the original measurement and multiplying by 0.5. This is because each box in the new scale represents twice as much distance.
-
Redraw those dimensions using the new scale, where one box now equals 10 feet.
For example:
- If a fence in the original drawing is 2 boxes long (which would be 10 feet at the original scale), it will now be drawn as 1 box long in the new scale (representing the same 10 feet).
- Complete the drawing, making sure all features are represented properly at the new scale.
If you have specific lengths or features to consider, feel free to share them, and I can help you with the calculations!
