Weekly Wednesday Word Problem

January 23, 2006

Brad was sitting in church the other day and noticed the colorful ceiling tiles. Being an energetic lad he figured out how many total tiles there were on the ceiling.? From the back to the front there were 108 tiles and from side to side there were 74 tiles.? He estimated that each ceiling tile was a 1′ by 1′ square.? Figuring out the area of the ceiling was easy for brad so he then decided to figure out the hypotenuse of the room.? Can you help Brad figure this one out?
