A triangle has a perimeter of 450.Natalie creates a scale drawing of the triangle with the scale factor 1/15.What is the perimeter of the scale drawing? First one to answer will get Brainleist !!!

Question
Answer:
Answer: The perimeter of the scale drawing is [tex]30[/tex].Step-by-step explanation: You need to analize the information provided in the exercise. You know that the perimeter of rectangle is [tex]450[/tex] and the scale factor Natalie used to create the scale drawing, was: [tex]scale\ factor=\frac{1}{15}[/tex] From this you can identify that, in order to find the perimeter of the scale drawing of the triangle (Which can be represented with [tex]P_2[/tex]), you must multiply the original perimeter ((Which can be represented with [tex]P_1[/tex]), by the scale factor Natalie used. Therefore, you get that the perimeter is: [tex]P_{2}=\frac{1}{15}P_1\\\\P_2(\frac{1}{15})(450)\\\\P_2=30[/tex]
