Answer:


A=1250m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Dimension of drawing

20 centimetres by 10 centimetres

Scale of drawing

1 cm:250 cm

Generally the the Main dimension of the pool is mathematically given as


L=length\ of\ scaled\ pool*250 cm\\B=length\ of\ scaled\ pool*250 cm\\L=20*250=5000 cm=50m\\B=10*250=2500 cm=25m

Therefore Area Aof main pool is mathematically given as


A=50m*25m=1250 m^2


A=1250m^2
