The length of the walkway is 24 ft, and you will need 24 stones to cover it.

What is the length of the walkway?

The length of the walkway will be equivalent to the hypotenuse of a right triangle with cathetus of 23ft and 18ft, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem to get it:

L^2  =(23fy)^2 + (18ft)^2

L = √( (23fy)^2 + (18ft)^2 ) = 23.77ft

The walkway is 23.77 ft long.

Rounding to the nearest foot, the length is 24 ft.

b) If each stone covers 1 ft, then you will need 24 stones.
