The distance around the splash is 27.7 meters and the amount of space on the splash is 31.5 square centimeters

<h3>The design of the splash</h3>

To do this, we use the following shapes and dimensions:

<h3>The distance around the splash</h3>

To do this, we simply calculate the perimeter of the splash.

But first, we need to calculate the slant heights of the triangle.

The slant height is calculated using:

Slant Height = √(Height² + (0.5 * Base)²) ----- Pythagoras theorem.

So, we have:

Slant Height = √(3² + (0.5 * 3)²)

Evaluate

Slant Height = 3.35

The perimeter is then calculated as:

Perimeter = Sum of visible sides

This gives

Perimeter = 6 + 3 + 3 + 3.35 + 3.35 + 3 + 3 + 3

Evaluate

Perimeter = 27.7

Hence, the distance around the splash is 27.7 meters

<h3>The amount of space on the splash</h3>

This is the sum of the area of shapes that covers the splash.

i.e.

Space = Sum of areas of triangle, rectangle and square

So, we have:

Space = 0.5 * 3 * 3 + 6 * 3 + 3 * 3

Evaluate

Space = 31.5

Hence, the amount of space on the splash is 31.5 square centimeters
