The Parking Lot Problem Revisited

There has been a change in the parking lot scenario at the CRC. After consulting with city planners, the CRC manager has concluded that angled parking spaces may be easier for drivers to navigate than the 90-degree spaces. Angled parking spaces can only be entered from one direction and drivers must enter these spaces “head-on.”
If each parking space in the CRC lot must maintain the 9 ft. x 18 ft parking areas, but must now be angled at 60 degrees, how will this new requirement impact the overall number of parking spaces possible?
Solve this mathematical task. As you do so:
Make note of your problem-solving strategies, particularly the estimation and/or approximation strategies you utilize.
Create a drawing to represent the new angled spaces in the parking lot.
Then, revisit the mathematical task you developed for students in Week 1 and consider how you might expand the task to include the following concepts:
Points
Lines (such as perpendicular, parallel, intersecting)
Planes
Angles
How might you use one or more of the technology tools introduced in this week’s Discussion to further enhance this task?
