Answer:

22 bundles of shingles are required to cover the roof.

Step-by-step explanation:

A square pyramid roof has five total sides. A square base and 4 equilateral triangle. The 4 triangular sides are to be covered by shingles.

Given:

The gutter to top = height = 15 ft

The length of the gutter on one side = length of roof base = 18 ft

Area covered by one bundle of shingles = 25 square feet.

Bundles to be bought = x = ?

Area to be covered by shingles = 4*Area of one side

= 4*((height*length)/2)

= 4*((15*18)/2)

= 4*135

= 540 square feet

Now x = Area/ area covered by one bundle

x = 540/25

x = 21.6

x = 22 bundles
