hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:22 AM

#

i need help

#

i dont know how to solve it

#

#

#

someone please

#

this one

#

@hybrid crater

hybrid crater Dec 11, 2023, 1:28 AM

#

sorry im bad at geometry

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:28 AM

#

bruh

#

😭

#

@cold sentinel

#

i dont understand these quetions

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:31 AM

#

Which question

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:31 AM

#

ALL OF THEM

#

i left one out hold on

#

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:32 AM

#

Ok lets start with first one

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:32 AM

#

catthumbsup

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:32 AM

#

a^2+b^2=c^2

#

The profiles are not squares, but they have same scale factors

#

And they are part of the squares

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:34 AM

#

what?

#

which one are u on?

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:34 AM

#

hollow garden

this one?

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:34 AM

#

George Washington

#

Yes

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:35 AM

#

ok

#

so what do we do next?

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:37 AM

#

How tall is the hypotenuse george

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:38 AM

#

6.2 cm?

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:38 AM

#

Nah thats the height

#

Let me rephrase that

#

What is length of hypotenuse

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:38 AM

#

25 cm?

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:39 AM

#

That is the area of the figure

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:39 AM

#

OHHH

#

9.3

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:39 AM

#

That is the base of the triangle

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:41 AM

#

what

#

i dont know wha the hypotenuse is

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:42 AM

#

Like u dont know the word or u dont know the value

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:42 AM

#

the value

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:42 AM

#

Use pythagorean theorem

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:43 AM

#

so 6.2 squared + 9.3 squared?

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:44 AM

#

Yeah thats what we want. Thats the square of the hypotenuse though to be exact

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:45 AM

#

so 124.93?

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:45 AM

#

Yeah

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:45 AM

#

ok

#

so thats the hypotenuse

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:46 AM

#

#

It would be the top left squares area

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:46 AM

#

oh ok

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:46 AM

#

If u wanted the length of the hypotenuse u would need to take the sqrt of the area but we dont actually need it so dw about that

#

Ok in each of these squares, there is a george Washington figure

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:47 AM

#

right

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:47 AM

#

Each of these take up a certain fraction of the square, and all of them take up the same fraction

#

So you can setup a ratio to solve for the area of the shaded George Washington

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:48 AM

#

mhm

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:49 AM

#

Ok lets assign a variable to the shaded George Washington. We will call the area x

#

The ratio of the area of the small george washington (x) to the smallest square (6.2^2) is the same as the ratio of the big george washington (25) to the hypotenuse square (124.93)

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:52 AM

#

ok

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:52 AM

#

Do you know how you can set up an equation to solve for x?

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:52 AM

#

no

#

im honestly rly confused when it comes to my mathcounts math

#

i excel at my classwork

#

but mathcounts math is a challenege

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:54 AM

#

Yeah honestly this question is what I would consider a challenge question for the topic

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:54 AM

#

ok

#

we can skip that one

#

ill just ask my coaches

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:54 AM

#

Yeah

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:54 AM

#

can we do the second one

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:54 AM

#

hollow garden

this one?

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:58 AM

#

hollow garden this one?

I believe you will find some of those triangles (maybe all) are similar

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 1:58 AM

#

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:58 AM

#

You will once again have to set up a ratio between side lemgths

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 1:58 AM

#

did you read that before?

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

hes helping me

#

he never gave me an answer

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

oh

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

hes been teaching me how to solve it

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

is this mathcount

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

but i just cant comprehend

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

dapper prism is this mathcount

yea

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

it's fun stuff

#

yay

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

What is mathcount

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 1:59 AM

#

I'm middle schooler also

#

it's American middle school competition

#

like before amc

cold sentinel Dec 11, 2023, 2:00 AM

#

I see

#

That explains why these questions are harder

#

I gtg eat now gl thoug

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:01 AM

#

david

#

can u hep me

#

help

#

me

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:02 AM

#

what question

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:02 AM

#

all of them

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:02 AM

#

can you post the image again?

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:02 AM

#

starting with this one

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:02 AM

#

hollow garden

this one

#

what grade r u?

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:03 AM

#

you know

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:03 AM

#

?

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:03 AM

#

raitos right?

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:03 AM

#

yea

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:03 AM

#

#

the side

#

and area

#

is in squre

#

for example

#

if the raito of two side is 2:3

#

raito of area will be

#

4:9

#

understand?

#

This is big hint

#

if you need more hint ask me for more

#

@hollow garden you understand it?

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:06 AM

#

Wait sry

#

I’m on the road and the WiFi isn’t that good

#

I’ll be home soon

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:06 AM

#

ok

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:06 AM

#

Can u help me later?

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

you know

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

Thanks dude 👍🏼

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

there is answer

#

for this past comeptiton

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

Rly?

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

and all the explaination

#

I'm in mathteam

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

Where???

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

so

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

Ik me too

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

let me get you right now

#

is this

#

2014

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

Can u send me links?

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:07 AM

#

Thanks!!!

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:08 AM

#

but like which year is this

#

which year spirint

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:08 AM

#

Check the bottoms

#

Of the questions

#

It should show

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:08 AM

#

oh 2017

#

team

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:08 AM

#

Wait

dapper prism Dec 11, 2023, 2:08 AM

#

ok

hollow garden Dec 11, 2023, 2:08 AM

#

Let me send it to u

#

Add me two
