Avneet buys 9 square paving slabs, each ...

Avneet buys 9 square paving slabs, each with a side of `1/2m` . He lays them in the form of a square. What is the perimeter of his arrangement? Shari does not like his arrangement. She gets him to lay them out like a cross. What is the perimeter of her arrangement? Which has greater perimeter? Avneet wonders, if there is a way of getting an even greater perimeter. Can you find a way of doing this? (The paving slabs must meet along complete edges they cannot be broken).
