Turn the paper sideways. Put your finger on the top corner of the ruler. Put that corner on the BOTTOM left corner of the paper. Press the ruler hard onto that corner. Now, swing the other end of the ruler UP to the right TOP corner of the paper. HOLD both ends of the ruler in place. Look at the ruler measurement. Write it in whole number and fraction as you read it from the ruler.

How do you lay tiles diagonally if your starting from a wall?

when starting from a wall you first need to make sure the wall is square to perfect. use the 3-4-5 method to find the perfect square-- this will tell you if the wall is perfectly squared or not. In this case I will be starting with my right shoulder-- Stretch your tape measure and point the metal tip into the eight side corner of the room. now measure out to the left 3 feet and make a mark at the 3 ft. point with a magic marker or pencil. now measure from the corner along the wall down to a 4 foot mark and mark a 4 ft. point now measure diagonally from the 3 foot point to the 4 foot point and you should have a 5 feet reading-- if you have a 5 ft reading then you found the perfect square starting point and now cut a tile in a diagonal / half and set it in the corner of your calk line square. The rest is way too indepth so my advice is to "GOOGLE" How to lay ceramic tile to find your favorite how to video. Good luck.


How many diagonals in nonagon and decagon?

it depends on what you mean by a diagonal. If you take a diagonal to mean a line from one corner to the "opposite" corner, then a nonagon doesn't have any, and a decagon has five. The reason a nonagon doesn't have any, is that the corners aren't opposite each other.

How do you square frame walls?

With the wall laying flat, measure diagonally from corner to corner both ways. Adjust the wall until these measurements are exactly the same. At that point you have a square wall. Either sheet the wall or run a piece of lumber diagonally from corner to corner nailing it to each stud, this will hold the wall square when it comes time to stand it up. Hope this helps
