An ant walked every day along a straight horizontal path from A to B, 5 m apart. Two obstacles, each of height 1 m, are placed on its path as shown. It still follows the same straight line in horizontal projection, climbing vertically up and down over both obstacles. How long is its new path?
7 m
9 m
$5+4\sqrt2$ m
$9-2\sqrt2$ m
It depends on the angles of the obstacles to the path.
The pie chart shows how the students of my school get to school. Approximately twice as many go by bike as use public transport, and roughly the same number come by car as walk. The rest use a moped. What percentage use a moped?

A blue rectangle and a red rectangle overlap in four different ways as shown. Let $B$ be the area of the blue part outside the overlap, and $R$ the area of the red part outside the overlap. Which statement about $B-R$ is true?

Four identical cuboid boxes are glued together in the shape shown. One litre of paint is needed to paint the entire outside of one box. How many litres are needed to paint the outside of the glued construction?
Matjaz places 15 numbers on a wheel. Only the top number, 10, is visible. Any seven consecutive positions always have the same sum, as in the shaded example. How many of 75, 216, 365 and 2020 can be the total of all 15 numbers?
A circle touches two sides of a rectangle and passes through one vertex, as shown. The distances along the bottom side from the tangency point to the two bottom vertices are 5 and 4. What is the rectangle’s area?
Three cuboids form a larger cuboid as shown. One width is 6, and the indicated face areas are 14, 21, 16 and 30. What is the area of the face marked with a question mark?
