1027.44 – Congruent Gardens


Here is a space for a community garden that will wrap around the corner of an apartment building. The garden space will be shared by four families. You are the building superintendent. Your job is to make a fair division of the space by dividing it into four plots that are exactly the same shape and same size. Can you do it?


Solution

It is interesting that the four small shapes are not only congruent to each other but are each similar to the large shape.
