• orthogonal lines must be traced with ink later.

• one should only use a dark pencil lead.

Emily measured two walls on her floor plan. She was able to determine which wall was an internal wall and which wall was an external wall because:

• external walls are typically two inches thicker than internal walls.

• internal walls are typically two inches thicker than external walls.

Jessica wants to experiment with different furniture arrangements for her bedroom without making changes to her floor plan. Which tool/material should she utilize on top of her existing floor plan?
