A painting company is going to paint a crosswalk at an intersection. Because the intersection of the streets is not a 90° angle, the stripes on the crosswalk will be identical
parallelograms as shown below.
4.2 m
0.5 m
Each can of paint used for painting the stripes will cover 2 m². The painting company will
buy full cans of paint. How many cans of paint will be needed to paint the five stripes?
