Question 33 is strange? Square feet? That question/answer should not be in square feet..

That's the question they use to weed people out who are too smart for the job. If you bring the deliberate typo to their attention, they disqualify you.

Remove your "/s". That's literally how it works.

We’re making fun of you for spamming this link a billion times in the thread.

Ironic, because those with a high enough IQ would see past all incongruences and just answer the questions.

What's crazier is that A is also a possible answer, if the wall is 2' tall. But C and D aren't possible unless the wall is {4,5} + 16/21' tall. The fraction is 9.143" in case anyone is wondering. But the answer is completely ambiguous. What balcony wall is 1-2' tall?! That's a safety violation!

The length of the bottom wall is 20 feet and the sum of the lengths of the top walls is 17.5 feet, meaning there is an additional 2.5 feet of wall width across the two walls of the balcony. Assuming the wall is uniform thickness, that gives us dimensions of 1.25 x 10.5 feet, or 13.125 square feet.

Sadly, not one of the allowed options.

I guess all walls are 1ft high in that diagram.

You're right though, pretty sure it's a typo.

[bagels]

At least two typos, or one complete lack of understanding of dimensions.

Certainly the wall must have a non-zero thickness, but the question should have said 'length' instead.
