In this problem you will need to use the Pythagorean theorem (c^2=a^2+b^2).
The a and b represents the two edges, while c is the diagonal side and it is called the hypotenuse. Since you already know what the hypotenuse is and what one of the sides already are you just have to use the problem: c^2-a^2=b^2. Then if you plug the data you already have into the problem you will get 10^2-6^2=b^2. That then equals 100-36=b^2. Then you subtract and get b^2=64. Then you square root both sides and you get the answer b=8.

Answer: 864 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
Rather than calculating the whole area of bathroom and area of one tile, It is quicker and easier to determine how many rows of tiles that will be needed.
Note that 1 feet = 12 inches
Each tile measures 3 inches on each side.
Length: 9 feet = 9 × 12 = 108 inches
Therefore, 108/3 = 36 tiles will fit along the length.
Width: 6 feet = 6 × 12 = 72 inches. Therefore, 72/3 = 24 tiles will fit along the width.
So, (36 × 24) = 864 tiles will be needed.
