Explain how to draw a line segment that measures 72 millimeters.​

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have

the arc length is found by finding the circumference of the full circle (2xpixradius) and then dividing by 4 to find just one quarter of the circle (90 degrees).
