    Andy's method (with secant chords theorem) is the quickest then the smartest one.
    Here is a less brilliant method :
    a : side length of yellow square
    b : side length of orange square
    c : side length of red square
    d : side length of green square
    x : radius of the semi-circle
    Equation 1 : a=sqrt(18)=3*sqrt(2)
    Equation 2 : b+d=a=3*sqrt(2)
    Equation 3 : sqrt(x^2-d^2)=d+sqrt(x^2-c^2) ; (particular vertex of green and red squares are in the semi-circle)
    Equation 4 : sqrt(x^2-d^2)+sqrt(x^2-b^2)=a=3*sqrt(2) ; (particular vertex of green and orange squares are in the semi-circle)
    a,b,c,d,x are 5 unknowns and we have 4 equations.
    We can not determine all of the 5 unknowns : a,b,c,d,x but we will see that we can determine : area=a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2
    area=a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2
    area=a^2+(b+d)^2-2*b*d+c^2
    area=a^2+a^2-2*b*d+c^2
    area=18+18+c^2-2*b*d
    area=36+c^2-2*b*d
    Equation 4 :
    sqrt(x^2-d^2)+sqrt(x^2-b^2)=3*sqrt(2)
    sqrt(x^2-b^2)=3*sqrt(2)-sqrt(x^2-d^2)
    x^2-b^2=(3*sqrt(2)-sqrt(x^2-d^2))^2
    x^2-b^2=18+(x^2-d^2)-6*sqrt(2)*sqrt(x^2-d^2)
    -b^2=18-d^2-6*sqrt(2)*sqrt(x^2-d^2)
    18+b^2-d^2=6*sqrt(2)*sqrt(x^2-d^2)
    18+(3*sqrt(2)-d)^2-d^2=6*sqrt(2)*sqrt(x^2-d^2) (thanks to Equation 2)
    18+(18+d^2-6*sqrt(2)*d)-d^2=6*sqrt(2)*sqrt(x^2-d^2)
    36-6*sqrt(2)*d=6*sqrt(2)*sqrt(x^2-d^2)
    3*sqrt(2)-d=sqrt(x^2-d^2)
    b=sqrt(x^2-d^2) ; x^2=b^2+d^2
    Equation 3 :
    sqrt(x^2-d^2)=d+sqrt(x^2-c^2)
    b=d+sqrt(x^2-c^2) (thanks to Equation 4)
    (b-d)^2=x^2-c^2
    b^2+d^2-2*b*d=x^2-c^2
    x^2-2*b*d=x^2-c^2
    c^2-2*b*d=0
    area=36+c^2-2*b*d
    area=36

    So a^2 = b^2 + c^2 + d^2 means that the area of the green, red and orange squares equal the area of the yellow square, regardless of any numbers, this feels much deeper than 36 sq units.

    Let ABC be a scalene triangle of area 6 sq units and in-radius 2 sq units (circle is inscribed in a triangle). A1 B1 C1 are the feets of the altitudes of the triangle through the vertices A, B, C. If A2, B2, C2 are the midpoints of the sides BC, CA and AB respectively, then the length of the broken line A1 B2 C1 A2 B1 C2 A1 is?

  • @shha22
    @shha22 3 месяца назад +5

    Since there are no rules on the largest square we can move the left corner to the edge of the circle. This makes green and red square disappear and orange to match the yellow one. So the sum of areas will be double the area of largest one. Thats obviously the fastest solution but it makes a (reasonable) assumption that the puzzle CAN be answered. Not a method for all math problems but very useful for puzzles.

    • @toddkes5890
      @toddkes5890 3 месяца назад +1

      @@harold2 You'll have to picture the squares in your mind, or try drawing them on a piece of paper. Start with the existing setup, where the Green square is inside the Yellow Square and its top left corner is touching the semicircle. Similarly, the Red square is inside the orange square, with its upper left corner touching the semicircle. The Yellow square's width is equal to the orange square's width plus the green square's width.
      If you move the Yellow square over, the green square gets smaller until the green square is zero, which means the Yellow square is equal to the Orange square. Remember that as the widths change for a square, so do their heights. As the Yellow square is being moved over, it is also dragging the right side of itself and the Orange square as well, forcing the red square farther to the left as well. As the Red square gets moved to the left, its height gets moved towards zero (since the semicircle gets closer to y=0), until the red square also gets eliminated.
      This leaves only the Yellow square and the Orange square, both of them on top of each other. The Orange square cannot get any smaller and still remain a square (try drawing regular quadragons that have their bottom left corner at the left corner of the semicircle and their upper right corner on the semicircle's perimeter, and see how many are a square). If you expand the Yellow square beyond the halfway point of the semicircle, then the Orange square starts to go back down in size resulting in the Green and Red squares reappearing.
