I read the problem and immediately thought I would draw rectangles measuring facts 5" by 2". After a couple of unsuccessful drawing, I realized that drawing wasn't helping me much and that the rectangle may need to be folded and then cut to make the 5 pieces necessary. I cut out some one rectangles and began folding them . At this point, I thought of the calculation of area of the square and something didn't feel right when I was folding the sens rectangles In my initial folding only attempts, I kept folding the short side of the of the rectangle over to form a 2x2 square and a 3x2 rectangle. After realizing that each side of the resulting square would have to be 10 or 3.162, I stopped doing this and tried another strategy of folding the rectangle lengthwise to determine whether I could get 5 pieces that way....
