Wendy has a regular hexagonal shaped box. She

wants to decorate it with

ghastly, pink ribbon all around the edge. Each

side of the box measures

3.5cm. How much ribbon does she need altogether?

Tom the joiner has been asked to fix skirting board all around a strangely, regular pentagonal room. The perimeter of the room is 35 metres. What does each side measure?

Chardonnay has a sickly, square shaped box. She decorates all aroun

d the edge of

it with quite disgusting, shiny circles. Each circle has a diameter

of 5cm. The

perimeter of the box is 100cm. How many circles does she need for it

altogether?

How many does she put on each side?

Farmer Jones has a square field. Each side measures 120m. But the ninja sheep keep attacking the cows and so he needs to divide the square field exactly in half. How much fencing will he need to go around the perimeter and fence down the middle?

John the Shrubber has been asked to p

lant some shrubs. Lovely shrubs. The

rectangular park he has been asked to surr

ound with shrubs has a length of 12m.

He really cant be bothered to measure the

rest, but a funny guy with a glass eye

tells him that the width is exactly half th

e length. What is the perimeter of the

park?

If he needs one shrub every 3 metres, how

many shrubs does he need?

What size shoes does the man with the gla

ss eye have, and what did he have for

breakfast?
