Logo 2 appears to be a triangle with its scaled base and height measuring 10 cm and 12 cm respectively. To be able to find its actual area, let's first determine its actual measurements.

Scaled measurements:

Base = 10 cm

Height = 12 cm

Scale: 1 cm = 0. 3 m

Actual measurements:

Base = 10 (cm) x 0.3 m/ 1 (cm) = 10 x 0.3 m/1 = 3 m

Height = 12 (cm) x 0.3 m/ 1 (cm) = 12 x 0.3 m/ 1 = 3.6 m

Let's now determine the actual area:


\text{ Area = }(1)/(2)BH

Where,

B = Base

H = Height

We get,


\text{ Area = }(1)/(2)BH
\text{ = }(1)/(2)(3)(3.6)\text{ = }\frac{3\text{ x 3.6}}{2}
\text{ = }\frac{\text{ 10.8}}{2}
\text{ Area = 5.4 m}^2

Therefore, the actual area of Logo 2 is 5.4 m^2.
