A scale drawing of an object is the same shape at the object but a different size. The scale of a drawing is a
comparison of the length used on a drawing to the length it represents. The scale is written as a ratio. The ratio
of two corresponding sides in similar figures is called the scale factor Scale factor = length in image / corresponding
length in object.

If one shape can become another using revising, then the shapes are similar. Hence, two shapes are similar
when one can become the other after a resize, flip, slide or turn. In the photograph above showing the side view
of a train engine. Scale factor is 1 : 200.
This means that a length of 1 cm on the photograph above corresponds to a length of 200 cm or
2 m, of the actual engine. The scale can also be written as the ratio of two lengths.
