i need to make another square
carmine cradle
I thougth that there are 3 from the original triangle
and then 2 elsewhere
i dont thinmkk im understanding the
'the squares on these three further line segments are then cnstructed outside the hexagon'
=IGG
IGG
OHH***
I see
gleaming island
there’s 3 in the q and u gotta make another 3
carmine cradle
oh my lord i thought that was 3d
its very convincing 3d shape
if u geet me
thinking of it in 2d makes it so much easier
Every triangle is right angled
nvm
its not
what are the 2 equal squares.... the 2 big ones i drew in look convincing.... but why would they be equal
gleaming island
it’s the one on the top
gleaming island
look they both 1009
polar linden
So using pythagoras a2 +b2=1009 but a2 and b2 are the areas of the 2 squares so they’re area sums to 1009
carmine cradle
idk about my ab labelling but certainly each side labelled is either a or b and thee other side of the same triangle is ab
polar linden
So u know the area now of 4 of the 6 squares
carmine cradle
So using pythagoras a2 +b2=1009 but a2 and b2 are the areas of the 2 squares so ...
how do u know they are labeklled that way
like
why would that be
b * b
why isnt it a * b
polar linden
Cos it’s a square…
carmine cradle
💀
gleaming island
just rotated it
carmine cradle
????????
gleaming island
i don’t even understand ur diagram
polar linden
lemme explain
Good luck 💀
gleaming island
nah what ima say is acc logical if u use ur brain to understand what im saying
carmine cradle
So using pythagoras a2 +b2=1009 but a2 and b2 are the areas of the 2 squares so ...
polar linden
That’s unnecessary
U know the total area of the 2 squares u don’t need to keep working it out
carmine cradle
U know the total area of the 2 squares u don’t need to keep working it out
which 2 squares
these?
polar linden
Mate u wrote it in ur first line of working
gleaming island
i think ur doin it in a longer way than u need to
we know area one of the squares definitely which is 1009
we gotta find the other 2 i think u gotta use the triangles
u know the lines that connect the vertices of the triangles
maybe we use them triangles
gleaming island
how did u get 2 that
polar linden
Where did u get 2008 from?
polar linden
I’m assuming ur gonna need cosine rule to find those lengths of the triangle which shld give u the answer
polar linden
Wrong the angle in the triangles isn’t 90° so u can’t use that to get the other sidelength
gleaming island
i think im not crazy this time
nah i think u r crazy
carmine cradle
Wrong the angle in the triangles isn’t 90° so u can’t use that to get the other ...
yup im crazy
polar linden
U defo need cosine rule for this
gleaming island
yeah there’s many approaches
polar linden
Wait I have a solution but it’s very complicated to explain
gleaming island
see if what i’m saying makes more sense than him 💀
ok u see the triangle formed from the two biggest squares
weary knot
Yooo someone help with my normal distribution question after pls
gleaming island
u see how we got the first square to be 1009 we can use the two squares to find the biggest one
polar linden
Still wrong
gleaming island
Yooo someone help with my normal distribution question after pls
i only know gcse sorry
polar linden
It wld be a/c not 2ab
gleaming island
nah i have an idea
i think u should draw ur squares differently , one on each triangle
wait u did
polar linden
Ye
polar linden
That’s like step 1 in this q
gleaming island
u gotta use a triangle to help u form another square
see the triangle formed from the two biggest squares ??
polar linden
Ye
gleaming island
u can rotate it sort of 90 anti-clockwise
try it urself actually so u can see then u get a straight line and u can make another square a ?? it’s kinda confusing
let’s say green is where it started u can move it to make it look like yellow and u now know that it’s the same length as a
i acc don’t know but i think i’m on the right track
polar linden
Do u know how radians work?
gleaming island
is it not possible for it to be rotated ??
how else would we find the area of the biggest square bc we gotta find the are of the other two
polar linden
let’s say green is where it started u can move it to make it look like yellow an...
Mate yellow is not supposed to be there
polar linden
Do u know how radians work?
?
gleaming island
it started at the green and now it’s been rotated i highlighted it lol
polar linden
Oh well this q might be very hard then
gleaming island
but that don’t mean what i’m doing is invalid bc idk how
check the ms it’s either 2018 or 2019 maclaurin olympiad
i don’t remember
polar linden
It’s 2018 cos the q says 2018 is the area
polar linden
Ye it uses radians asw
polar linden
Ye
