George tied one end of a 4 metre length of string to the corner of a shed and attached a piece of chalk to the other end. Keeping the string taut, George walked round and drew an unusual shape on the ground. The shed was 3 metres long and 2 metres wide and his line had 2 ends - one on at the back of the shed and one at the far end of it.

Where did George fix the string?

What was the area of George's shape?

Could George draw a shape with a larger area if he fixed the string to a different point on the shed?
