Please add verbal description of the tiles (angles, sides) and the kitchen dimensions if applicable. Your figure did not transmit. If it's just making a rectangle from a right triangle, use the Pythagorean theorem. Otherwise, use the Law of Cosines to make the appropriate determination. -- Cheers, -- Mr. d.05/05/20
