The house is 10 m long and 5 m wide.

The length AC is approximately 2.84 m.

Olivia decides to put solar panels on the roof. The solar panels are fitted to both sides of
the roof.

rows, with the shorter edge of each panel parallel to AB or AC. Each panel must be at
least 0.3 m from the edge of the roof and the top of the roof, AF.

Olivia estimates that the solar panels will cover an area of 29 m2.
