If the question means "Can the three pieces of wood be placed together to form a triangle", which I suspect it does, the answer is No.

In a triangle, any two sides must be longer than the other. 4 + 7 is not longer than 13, so they could not meet is one was joined to a different end of the 13 inch board.

What is conversion board feet to square feet or square feet to board feet?

you can't straight convert a linear measure to an area measure... missing info. If the board is 12" wide, then the ratio is one to one. if the board is 6" wide, the linear footage needed would be double. It's a simple ratio. width of board in inches/12 * length in feet = square feet. length in feet = square feet * 12 / width


How many bricks would be required to edge a garden that is 37 feet long?

That would depend on the length of bricks that are used. Since the average brick is about seven inches long, I'll use that length to calculate how many bricks you will need. First, multiply the length of your garden by 12 to get the length in inches: 37 x 12 = 444 inches. Then divide the 444 by 7 (the length of the bricks) which will give you 63.43. So the number of bricks you will need (if they are 7 in long) will be 64. If the bricks are a different length, just use the same formula to calculate how many you will need, or post a message to me on my message board, and I will calculate it for you.

Jake plans to make 12 cuts in a board There will be a ten inch interval between cuts How long is the board?

Assuming the two end pieces will also be 10 inches and the cuts do not take up any space, the board must be 130 inches long. But it could be only 122 inches if the first and last cuts are only 1 inch from the ends, but still 10 inches from the adjacent cuts. Or it could be any longer length if either or both of the ends is more than 10 inches.
