John Risley and Chelsea Duble inspired me to give the class a hint on the “2009” rectangle  problem on your group project! Read carefully and enjoy. 

We know that the sum of 3 sides is 2009 so we could say:  2a + b = 2009 if the sides of the  rectangle are: a, a, b, and b. Also, we know that the sum of the fourth side(b) plus the  diagonal is also 2009. That equation would be:  b + d = 2009.  Now, if we solve the second equation for b, we would get   b = 2009 – d.  If you then go back  to the Rirst equation and solve for 2a, you get  2a = 2009 – b…………hmmmm, now see if you  can go from there. The problem is asking you for the RATIO of the length of the longer side  to the length of the shorter side.  I think I have possibly given you too much of a hint on this one.  Check back to your website on “pdfcoke.com” for more hints.
