The king is planning a new rectangular courtyard in his palace. It will be laid out using square tiles. He has chosen some very pretty, but very inexpensive, tiles. However, his adviser has informed him that some of the tiles will have to be a more expensive type. This is because visiting dignitaries will always walk along a certain diagonal, from one corner of the courtyard to the opposite corner, so the tiles along this diagonal will get lots of wear and tear. Every tile that contains a segment of the diagonal must thus be an extra-strength, more expensive tile. If a tile touches the diagonal only at a corner, it can be a regular tile. The diagram shows what the situation would look like if the king made a 4-by-6 courtyard. In this case, 8 tiles (shaded darker than the rest) include some portion of the diagonal, so these would need to be the more expensive kind. 1. The king wants to know how many of these special tiles to order. At the moment, he is planning a 63-by-90 tile courtyard. That is, it will have 63 rows of tiles with 90 tiles in each row. If he stays with this plan, how many special tiles will he need?

The king is planning a new rectangular courtyard in his palace. It will
be laid out using square tiles. He has chosen some very pretty, but very
inexpensive, tiles. However, his adviser has informed him that some of
the tiles will have to be a more expensive type.
This is because visiting dignitaries will always walk along a certain
diagonal, from one corner of the courtyard to the opposite corner, so
the tiles along this diagonal will get lots of wear and tear. Every tile that
contains a segment of the diagonal must thus be an extra-strength,
more expensive tile. If a tile touches the
diagonal only at a corner, it can be a
regular tile.
The diagram shows what the situation
would look like if the king made a
4-by-6 courtyard. In this case, 8 tiles
(shaded darker than the rest) include
some portion of the diagonal, so these
would need to be the more expensive
kind.

Scenario 2: In the bathroom, the homeowners wish to install subway tile around the tub. The tile will be placed above the tub on the three sides that are enclosed. The bathroom has a 9-foot ceiling height and the tub is 60 inches long by 32 inches wide by 19 inches high. The tile the homeowners have selected is 3 inches by 12 inches and is sold by the box. Each box costs $34.99 and contains 22 tiles. The supplier provides free delivery and recommends purchasing a minimum of 10% overage. Question 6: Find the total cost for the tile, including sales tax.
The United States Postal Service ships a package under large-package rates if the sum of the Tength and the girth of the package is greater than 84 inches and less than or equal to 108 inches. The "length" of the package is considered to be the length of its longest side, and the "girth" of the package is the distance around the package perpendicular to its length. Fran wants to ship packages under the USPS large-package rates. Her package is a rectangular solid (see picture) whose length is 40 inches. What is the largest volume that her package can have?
The size of a TV screen is stated in inches, a 45-inch TV, a 60-inch TV, etc. But a TV screen or a cell phone screen is a surface so its size should be measured in square inches rather than inches. It turns out that the advertised screen size is actually the length of the diagonal line of the screen. So a cell phone with a 6-inch screen may have a different screen area than another cell phone that also has a 6-inch screen. Find the area of the rectangles. Round answer to two decimal places.
Similar to the description of the screen size by the diagonal line of a screen, the size of a round pizza is described by its diameter. A 16-inch pizza is one that is round and its diameter is 16 inches. Using area to describe a pizza is more reasonable since a pizza is kind a flat. But let’s stick to this common description for now. Sherry wants to order a 16-inch pizza for her office, but is told by the pizza restaurant that only 8-inch pizzas are available. How many 8-inch pizzas does Sherry have to order if she wants the combined area of the smaller pizzas to be the same as the area of a 16-inch pizza?
Imagine you are in a city that has a grid of streets with perfectly square blocks and that the only way to get from one intersection to another is to follow the block system. How many blocks will you have to walk (or pay the cabdriver for) if you want to get from the intersection of 10th Ave and 25th Street to the intersection of 6th Ave and 28th Street? If you had a jet pack and could fly over the buildings, how many blocks in length would the shortest path be? How does this compare to #1? (Hint: Pythagorean Theorem)
live 9 (rectangular) blocks from Tech, and I walk each morning. The trip is 3 blocks north and 6 blocks west; and I have to follow the streets, so I cannot cut diagonally. At each intersection, I must choose whether to walk north or walk west. Thus, I must make 9 choices of which to take, but of course must go north 3 times and west 6 times. How many possible complete trips to Tech are there?
both sheets are for the same problem.
