    I solved it in a different way. Draw a height of this triangle which belongs to the hypotenuse. Because of isosceles right triangle, it goes through midpoint of hypotenuse and also the vertex with right angle. We can find that lenght easily. sqrt2 + 2*sqrt2 + 1. The lenght of the hypotenuse will be twice larger. The area will be equal (1+3*sqrt2)^2 and that is 19 + 6 sqrt2. Thanks for the video. Nice problem 😃

      I think its a useful discipline. It can stop you going down a rabbit hole.
      In this case,
      1) measure (x) the dropped perp. across the middle of the triangle corner to centre, centre to centre, centre to edge= root2 +2root2 +1 = x.
      2) check that area is x^2
      3) 3root2+1 squared =
      Square each of the terms
      9×2 +1 =19
      Twice the cross product=
      6root2

    We can also calculate the area using the height (from right angle)
    h = √2
    +2√2+1
    = 1+3√2
    in this triangle height is also median, so hypotenuse = 2h
    the triangle is straight and isosceles -> side = hypotenuse/√2 = h√2
    and area = h^2
    area = 19 + 6√2

    Well actually you can find 'b' even with similar triangles! I did the same exact thing but except using trig I used similar triangles ratio of the sides , notice if you join the centres of the circles then you will get a right triangle with angles 45° 45° and 90° exactly same as the main triangle and the lengths will be 4,4,4√2 using ratio of hyp to any leg you will get
    4√2/4= 4√2+2b/5+b
    And then could be solved for b = √2+1 and then just calculate the area which is quite straight forward ,

    If we can fit 6 circles in that way in a right triangle it is automatically a isosceles one

    Why did you need the tan?!
    You calculated the length without it

    • @SyberMath
      @SyberMath  3 года назад

      I used tan(π/8) to calculate the base, hence the area.

    I just cut the triangle exactly in the half ( with the rect of right corner and hipotenusa middle point)
    Then I got a isosceles right triangle with de half of the originals triangle area
    The side of the triangle can be easily calculated:
    Diagonal of the square formed from the 4 circles centers = 2√2
    Distance between right corner and center of the closet circle = √2
    Distance of tangent point an center of circle in the middle of hipotenusa = 1
    Total = 3√2 + 1
    This squared is=
    19 + 6√2
    Divide by 2 and multiplied by 2(because it's the half of the originals triangle area)
    Final answer: 6√2 + 19

    your solution is far fetched. The length of the left bottom corner of the triangle to the middle of the hypothenuse is 3*sqrt(2) + 1. This is one of the right hand sides of a isosceles right hand triangle which is half of the full triangle so the area of the full triangle is (3*sqrt(2)+1)².

      Sometimes he shows not the simplest solution, but a solution he finds more interesting. Many ways to solve this, and if you use a proper method and get the right answer it's fine.
