Question 3

Draw linear scales and mark the following distances on them.

(i) 1 cm = 1 km (9 km).
(ii) 1 cm = 100 km (1100 km).
(iii) 1: 500000 (13 km).
(iv) 1: 20000 (250 metres).

Answer

(i) Given, 1 cm = 1 km
Hence, scale is 1 cm to 1 km.

Draw linear scales and mark the following distances on them. 1 cm = 1 km (9 km). Chapter 3 Scales and Direction, Total Geography ICSE Class 10

(ii) Given, 1 cm = 100 km
Hence, scale is 1 cm to 100 km.3-

Draw linear scales and mark the following distances on them. 1 cm = 100 km (1100 km). Chapter 3 Scales and Direction, Total Geography ICSE Class 10

(iii) Given, R.F. = 1: 500000
We know that: 1 km = 1,00,000 cm
1 cm = 5 km
Hence, scale is 1 cm to 5 km.

Draw linear scales and mark the following distances on them. 1 500000 (13 km). Chapter 3 Scales and Direction, Total Geography ICSE Class 10

(iv) Given, R.F. = 1: 20000
We know that: 1 m = 100 cm
1 cm = 200 m
Hence, scale is 1 cm to 200 m.

Draw linear scales and mark the following distances on them. 1 20000 (250 metres). Chapter 3 Scales and Direction, Total Geography ICSE Class 10
