Answer:
No
Explanation:
The distance between the two points on the ground = 43km
[tex]\text{Scale}=\frac{1}{25000}[/tex]First, we calculate the distance between the two points in meters.
• 43km = 43,000 m.
Next, determine the distance it will take using the scale.
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{25000}=\frac{x}{43000} \\ 25000x=43000 \\ x=\frac{43000}{25000} \\ x=1.72m \end{gathered}[/tex]The distance between the points using the scale is 1.72m.
Next, we see that the dimensions (1.32 m by 0.85 m) are smaller than the length.
As a final check, calculate the length of the diagonal of the map. The diagonal is usually the longest part.
[tex]\text{Diagonal}=\sqrt[]{1.32^2+0.85^2}=1.57m[/tex]Since 1.57m is still less than 1.72m, the two points cannot be placed on the map.
