You mean area or perimeter of the triangle?

distant light Dec 10, 2024, 2:49 PM

#

like the m² of the entire blue triangle.

distant light

Is it given the whole box is a square

yea

#

You can just find the hypotenuse of the top triangle I think

Sec

distant light Dec 10, 2024, 4:19 PM

and it is to scale

#

Is the blue triangle isosceles

#

like given

#

Can you send the whole problem with the wording

It is translated from german so the wording might be a little janky

Santa faces a difficult task. Unfortunately, the 3 departments of the Christmas factory have fallen out, as the gift distribution center has less space than the gift shopping department. Kann-nix's section, who is the boss of the “mess, mistakes and rejects” department, clearly has the most space. However, Santa can't knock down load-bearing walls, so he thought he could work out the area of the gift distribution center and give them the chance to divide up this space well. However, Santa's geometric knowledge leaves a lot to be desired, which is why he asks pupils from the language and secondary school, as he has heard that the best mathematicians can be found there far and wide. Santa has printed out the cross-section, but due to all the things standing around, he could only measure one side, namely 8m as drawn. He also knows that one of the triangles is at a right angle. Can you help Santa calculate the area of the blue section?
