Question

the scale factor is 1 centimeter to 35 meters. for a, enter the area of the rectangle in square centimeters. for b, enter the area of the national park in square meters.

Explanation:

Step1: Count square side length (cm)

From the grid, the red square has side length $6$ cm.

Step2: Calculate area in square cm

Area formula: $A = s^2$
$A = 6^2 = 36$

Step3: Convert side to actual meters

Scale: $1$ cm = $35$ m, so actual side $= 6 \times 35 = 210$ m

Step4: Calculate actual area (sq m)

Area formula: $A = s^2$
$A = 210^2 = 44100$

Answer:

A. 35 square centimeters
B. 44100 square meters
