so find the area of the roof first then multiply by 1.25

Directrix (directrix):

There are 4 isosceles triangles with base 4 and height 5 on the roof. The area of one of them is (1/2) * 4 * 5.

Directrix (directrix):

That gives 10 square feet per triangle. Multiply 10 by 4 to get 40 square feet for the roof. Each square foot of shingles costs 1.25 so multiply 1.25 by 40. @samsteronbroadway
