Answer 3

One little foot fell off the roof... La~dee~da~dee~da...

Answer 4

I'm not sure if my way is correct.
Run = w/2
Rise : run = 4/12
rise = (4/12)(run) = (4/12) ( w/2) = w/6

\[Hypotenuse = \sqrt{Rise ^2 + Run^2 } = \sqrt{(w/6)^2 + (w/2)^2} = \sqrt{5w^2/18}\]

Area of roof = 2 (Hypotenuse) (l) = ......
