Description

This image depicts a scale drawing of a right triangle that has been scaled down by a factor of 5:1. This means each side of the triangle in the drawing is one-fifth the length of the corresponding side in the actual object. Scaling down is useful for creating manageable representations of larger objects.

Teacher's Script: "Examine this scale drawing of a right triangle. How does the 5:1 scale factor help us understand the relationship between the drawing and the actual triangle? What are some real-world applications of scaling down objects, such as in model making or map creation?"
