To calculate how much tile is needed to create the pattern, we first need to calculate the total area of each shape: the house base, the roof, and the attached square.
House base:
Length = 6 units
Width = 6 units
Area = Length x Width = 6 x 6 = 36 square units
Roof:
Base of triangle = 6 units
Height of triangle = 3 units
Area = 0.5 x Base x Height = 0.5 x 6 x 3 = 9 square units
Attached square:
Side length = 3 units
Area = Side length x Side length = 3 x 3 = 9 square units
Total area of all shapes = Area of house base + Area of roof + Area of attached square
Total area = 36 + 9 + 9 = 54 square units
Therefore, the home remodeler will need 54 square units of tile to create the pattern.
