Answer» Given : scale of map = 1 : 10000001 cm represents to 1000000 cm on the ground.Therefore, 1 cm× 1 cm = 1 cm² (on the map)And, 1000000 cm× 1000000 cm = 1000000000000 cm² (on the ground)1 km = 100000 cm× 100000 cm = 10000000000So, the area on the ground = 1000000000000/10000000000= 100 sq kmAs the area of the forest on the map is 4.6 cm².So, the actual area of the forest = 100× 4.6= 460 sq m the answer is not know because this is not in my chapter sorry |
