Three places A,B and C form the vertices...

Three places A,B and C form the vertices of a triangle. A triangle to reduced scale is drawn as shown below. If the actual distance between A nd C is 200 km, determine the actual distance from Ato B and B to C,.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Distance between A and C = 200 km
`:. 10 " x "=200 " km "`
x = 20 km
Distance between A and B
`5xx 20 - 100" km "`
Distance between B and C
=`8xx 20 = 160 " km "`
