Diagonal Scale

This document provides instructions for 14 questions about constructing diagonal scales to represent distances on maps and plans. It also includes 2 questions about constructing a scale of chords to measure angles. The questions cover topics like setting scales to different reduction factors to show units of meters, kilometers, yards and other units of length. They involve tasks like marking specific distances on the scales. The document is intended to help students practice skills for engineering drawing such as constructing different types of scales.
