Using two cuts, we want to divide the \(6\) m by \(6\) m grid shown into three regions of equal area.
One way to do so is by making a horizontal cut through \(H\) and a second horizontal cut through \(K\). This method of cutting the grid works, but is not very creative.
To make things a little more interesting, we must still make two straight cuts, but each cut must start at point \(P\). Each of these two cuts will pass through a point on the outer perimeter of the grid.
Find the length of each cut. Round your answer to one decimal.
