Water Tower As part of a class project, you obtain the responsibility 12 ft
of making a scale model of the water tower in your town. The water
tower’s diameter is 12 feet and the height is 16 feet. You decide that
0.5 inch in your model will correspond to 12 inches of the actual
16 ft
water tower.
18. What is the scale factor?
19. What is the radius and height of the model?
20. What is the surface area of the model?
21. What is the volume of the actual water tower?
22. Use your result from Exercise 21 to find the volume of the model.
