Question

a = \frac{1}{2}bh\
what are the actual base and height of the trampoline?\
actual base = \boxed{ } ft\
actual height = \boxed{?} ft\
(image of a triangle with base 2.5 in. and height 3 in., scale 1 in. : 4 ft)

Explanation:

Step1: Find actual base

The scale is 1 in. : 4 ft. The base on the diagram is 2.5 in. So actual base = 2.5 * 4 = 10 ft. Wait, but the box for actual base has 1? Wait, maybe I misread. Wait the diagram: base is 2.5 in., height is 3 in. Scale 1 in = 4 ft.

Step2: Find actual height

The height on the diagram is 3 in. Using the scale 1 in. : 4 ft, actual height = 3 4 = 12 ft. Wait, but the first box for actual base: maybe the user made a typo, but let's calculate height. Diagram height is 3 in, scale 1 in = 4 ft, so 34=12.

Answer:

Actual base (if correct calculation: 2.5*4=10, but if the box has 1, maybe a mistake, but for height: 12)
Actual height = 12 ft
