[brisk ledge]

alright

[opal nexus]

ight bet

show the problem

@shadow plume c'mere bro

[brisk ledge]

let me find the paper real quick

one sec

[shadow plume]

alr i'm here

[brisk ledge]

What is this called in english

Trapecius?

and Rumbus

or what 🤣

[opal nexus]

trapezium

[shadow plume]

trapezium

[opal nexus]

what language is that?

[shadow plume]

and rhombus

[brisk ledge]

i was close

im georgian

[opal nexus]

thats cool

anyway

@shadow plume help my boy

[brisk ledge]

yea so i need to learn all these

then i move on to circles

[shadow plume]

yee I'm looking at the problems

[brisk ledge]

i have a national exam to get into university i started learning math this year

it might look easy to u guys but my whole country struggling on this sh

this is just the beginning of geometry too

[shadow plume]

trapezoid one first question answer is 90

[brisk ledge]

i know the first one

2 alpha + 2 beta = 180

or something

[shadow plume]

which ones do you not know

[shadow plume]

kind of yeah

[brisk ledge]

i know until 6

after that i dont know any single one

[shadow plume]

alr imma look at 6

[brisk ledge]

listen

quick summary

i study math at a teacher

im just tryna learn more at home

because i need to get good enough at math in 3 months to pass the exam

[shadow plume]

oh alr

alr in Q6 the trapezium is isoceles

[brisk ledge]

isoceles?

[shadow plume]

so you can use congruency and some simple algebra to get the answer a 14

[brisk ledge]

what 💀 😭

[shadow plume]

non parallel sides are equal in length

[brisk ledge]

oh ok

you mean

equal sides

the sides are equal right

[shadow plume]

This is gonna take a diagram isn't it...

[brisk ledge]

in georgian its quite literal

its called equal side trapezius

[shadow plume]

oh lol

7th one you'll get 4 as the answer

same logic

[brisk ledge]

wait so how do u solve 6

[shadow plume]

well as the thing is an equal side uh thing

you'll get the result that the cutoffs of the base on the sides of the altitudes are equal

[brisk ledge]

i dont get it lmao

[shadow plume]

ok label the points where the altitudes touch ad E and F

[brisk ledge]

let me open a drawpad

wanna hop in a vc?

if u have time

ill screenshare

[shadow plume]

ack I can't do that

sry...

[brisk ledge]

no problem bro

ok so look @shadow plume

what do i do

to find X

bruh

i get it

its 14

🤣

[shadow plume]

draw the other altitude and label all the points

[brisk ledge]

look ill solve it

one sec

[shadow plume]

alr

[brisk ledge]

tell me if its correct

it juts came to my mind real quick

[shadow plume]

YESSSS

that is exactly how its done lol

[brisk ledge]

ill just try to solve all of them, and ill be texting them here while i get stuck

thanks for help tho

[shadow plume]

alr

[brisk ledge]

such a nice community

[shadow plume]

7th its the same logic

[brisk ledge]

bless u bro

[shadow plume]

you're welcome lol

the eighth one is tricky- took me a few seconds to get it
but yeah you should be able to do it (hint is angle chasing)

[brisk ledge]

correct?

X is the whole base right

so i gotta add them all up

@shadow plume

this ones confusing

8th

[shadow plume]

x is not the whole base

x+y is the whole base

[brisk ledge]

so its 6?

[shadow plume]

try angle chasing

[brisk ledge]

is X 8 or 6

[brisk ledge]

i dont know what that is in english

let me translate

[shadow plume]

6

[brisk ledge]

ohh

ok

[shadow plume]

find all the angles

[brisk ledge]

ok

is this correct

i dont know what the fuck i just did

@shadow plume

[shadow plume]

why'd you assume the unknown angle as 45?

and no that's wrong...

[brisk ledge]

because 1 alpha is 45

Idk

[brisk ledge]

Sorry

how do i solve this

[shadow plume]

its fine

[shadow plume]

try proving that triangle ABC is isoceles

AB = BC

[brisk ledge]

OH

[shadow plume]

prove that

[brisk ledge]

i GET IT

LET ME SOVLE I

nvm

[shadow plume]

oof

[brisk ledge]

is it also 6

is AB 6

[shadow plume]

yes lol

[brisk ledge]

oh

i get it now

and the other sides 6 too

since its equal

so the base is 10

is it

actually

not 10

9

wait

i dont even need to find hte base

X is 6

9th

[shadow plume]

yee

yes

[brisk ledge]

i got to a kinda tricky one

now i have to find the roof

[shadow plume]

which question?

[brisk ledge]

is this correxct

10th one

[shadow plume]

yes correct

[brisk ledge]

its so easy

[shadow plume]

yeah geometry is like that

once you get the hang of it you can breeze through it no sweat lol

[brisk ledge]

its just that

when doing tests

alot of new shit show up right after the other

so i awlays need to wait for the teacher to come to me and explain

[shadow plume]

oh oof

[brisk ledge]

studying like this is kinda faster tbh

[shadow plume]

For me I'm used to logic

Like I can handle new types of questions usually

[brisk ledge]

i have no experiecne in math

so i struggle

[shadow plume]

yeah just breeze through and then when you reach a roadblock then you ask for help

[shadow plume]

oh- I may or may not do college math for fun sooooo

[brisk ledge]

this shit is not fun 🗣️ 🔥 💯

i wish i enjoyed this

would be easier

[shadow plume]

I enjoy it lol

[brisk ledge]

when u enjhoy something its easier to do

forcing urself to do something makes it harder

if i coudl dedicate the same amount of time i dedicate to gym and gaming to math without getting bored id be very good at it too

[shadow plume]

yeah true

ppl have different interests

[brisk ledge]

i need a hint

i know the other side is also 60

but what else

[shadow plume]

trigonometry

that's the way to go here

[brisk ledge]

i do not know trigonometry at all

[shadow plume]

do you know trigonometry-

[shadow plume]

oof-

[brisk ledge]

🤣

[shadow plume]

that complicates things

[brisk ledge]

im gonna learn trigonometry

but my teacher is not solving this with trigonometry

[shadow plume]

theres an alternate way without trigonometry

but it's much longer

[brisk ledge]

which is

[shadow plume]

constructions and lots of algebra

[brisk ledge]

can u solve it

is it 17

is X 17

[shadow plume]

ok what i did is 27 - 2*10*cos(60)

[shadow plume]

yes

[brisk ledge]

its jut 27 - 10

💀

[shadow plume]

yeah lol

[brisk ledge]

lmao

[shadow plume]

cos(60) is 1/2 so yeah

[shadow plume]

yep

[brisk ledge]

oh

i did a little bit of thos

cos

tang

cotang

and shit

[shadow plume]

that is trigonometry

lol

[brisk ledge]

i only did a little

we will fully do it later

[shadow plume]

ah ok

it gets more fun as you progress in it

[brisk ledge]

ok now im stuck

is it 2 on the sides

because 9-5

or what

[shadow plume]

yes

[brisk ledge]

ok so perimeter is 18

[shadow plume]

no

[brisk ledge]

damn

what is it

[shadow plume]

22

[brisk ledge]

how

[shadow plume]

you'll get the sides of the trapezium as 4

[brisk ledge]

i thought it was 2

u said the sides were 2

[shadow plume]

(unfortunately using trigonometry)

[shadow plume]

I thought you meant the cutoffs-

sry...

[brisk ledge]

9-5?

is that the trigonometry

lmao

is the sides 4 because of 9-5

or what

[shadow plume]

actually no lol

its more like this

[brisk ledge]

no problem

[shadow plume]

$\frac{9-5}2 \sec(60)$

[oblique relic]

No Lifer#GTFOanemia

[brisk ledge]

💀

[shadow plume]

this is what the actual thing is like

[brisk ledge]

60 seconds?

what

[shadow plume]

no 60 degrees

sec is basically 1/cos

[brisk ledge]

Oh ok

[shadow plume]

but sec(60) = 2

so the entire thing becomes 9-5

[brisk ledge]

i remember this

how are you supposed to memorize these all?

[shadow plume]

I memorised only sin

nothing else lol

[brisk ledge]

Thats all u need

or wut

i need hints

[shadow plume]

well if you're comfortable doing super quick calculations then that's all u need

[shadow plume]

didn't we alr solve this one?

[brisk ledge]

we did?

wut

Do i have amnesia

[shadow plume]

oh wait nvm

sorry

no I'm stupid

[brisk ledge]

np

its fine lol

most of them look very similar

[shadow plume]

yeah-

alr did you try solving it yet?

[brisk ledge]

is X 6

or 4

its either 6 or 4

let me try

nah i messed something up

it cant be this much

or is it right

[shadow plume]

no you messed up

[brisk ledge]

OK what do i do

[shadow plume]

(10-4)/2 lol

[brisk ledge]

Oh

Alright

so its 3

[shadow plume]

yep

[brisk ledge]

this ones kinda insane

idk

is it also 120 up there

[shadow plume]

no that's 20 not 120-

its 20 degrees not 120

[brisk ledge]

OH

i was so confused lmao

ok let me try now

[shadow plume]

this one you have to do angle chasing

[brisk ledge]

one esc

ye

[shadow plume]

like find as many angles as possible

[brisk ledge]

let me try

[shadow plume]

alr

[brisk ledge]

how do i find the upper angels

[shadow plume]

angle BCD = 180 - 64

[brisk ledge]

i dont get it

can u find all the angles

ill probably understand then

[shadow plume]

alr

you'll get x = 180-96-32

[brisk ledge]

where do u get 32 from

[shadow plume]

the triangle up top is isoceles

you'll get 32 as (180-(180-64))/2

[brisk ledge]

oh

bet

[shadow plume]

yeah try

[brisk ledge]

i get it

now im on the next one

worst of them all

this the last one

[shadow plume]

this one the only option that makes sense is x=140

I can't justify it though...

Alr i have to leave now

[brisk ledge]

me too

ill take a break

thanks for helping bro u a real one

Peace

[shadow plume]

You're welcome lol
