Pagans

Elena cut out same circle-shaped pagans and put them on a rectangular sheet so that the neighboring pagans were touching each other and the pagans were touching the walls of the sheet on the edges. Each pagans occupied 28.26 cm² of the bottom of the sheet. What dimensions does the bottom of the sheet have? (Calculate with π = 3,14.)

Correct result:

a =  30 cm
b =  18 cm

Solution:

$$\begin{gathered} S=28.26{\text{cm}}^3 \\ r=\lceil \sqrt{S\mathrm{/}\pi }\rceil =\lceil \sqrt{28.26\mathrm{/}3.1416}\rceil =3\text{ cm } \\ D=2\cdot r=2\cdot 3=6\text{ cm } \\ 15=5\cdot 3 \\ a=5\cdot D=5\cdot 6=30\text{ cm} \end{gathered}$$

$b=3\cdot D=3\cdot 6=18\text{ cm}$
