    30=48-A -18=-A 18=A Well done, thanks.

    This is wh Plugging those into the distance formula, what I got for A:

    How to solve an unclear geometry problem — Counting line segments in a rectangle

    I plugged it into the distance formula (30,4) for x and (48,4) for y to get 18, but it wouldn't have occurred to me at all that I needed to go that far.

    Oh, this is just in terms of units right? So, for A=0 then just 48. A=1, then ?

    How to solve an unclear geometry problem — Counting line segments in a rectangle

    (w^2+h^2)^1/2 So, (30^2+4^2)^1/2 Correct?

    30?

    How to solve an unclear geometry problem — Counting line segments in a rectangle

    A(x)=15x-x^2 So, would this be 48=15x-x^2?

    How to solve an unclear geometry problem — Counting line segments in a rectangle

    If the height is 4 then the length should be 30. I am still unclear what A would be: 30/5=6. That can't be correct.

    120-48=72 72/4=18 The solution appears too simple to be the correct to me.
