    "Four oh three one" is *NOT* the correct answer, because that is not one of the ways a number can be said. Here are a couple of the allowable ways: "four thousand thirty-one" and "forty hundred thirty-one." The second digit from the left is not a letter.

    Both Mathletes missed this question.
    The area of square ABCD = (AB)^2 = (BC)^2. We are going to compute (AB)^2 or (BC)^2.
    First, let’s do some analysis:
    Only two values, 2 and 5, are known, so we must use these two values. Which part is 2? Which part is 5?
    Well, from A(2,5), draw a line perpendicular to the y-axis, this line intersects the y-axis at a point and let’s call this point E. Then, AE = 2 and OE = 5, where O is the origin.
    Triangles AEB is a RIGHT triangle; if we also know BE, then we know (AB)^2 and we are done.
    Well, BE = OE - BO = 5 - BO , so we must find BO. Could BO be 2??
    Solution:
    The two RIGHT triangles AEB and BOC are congruent***. So
    BO = AE = 2. Then, OC = BE = OE - BO = 3.
    Thus, in the right triangle AEB, (AB)^2 = 3^2 + 2^2 = 13.
    (Or, similarly, in the right triangle BOC, (BC)^2 = 3^2 + 2^2 = 13.)
    [Note that angle ABC is a right angle.
    *** The two RIGHT triangles AEB and BOC are congruent because
    (i) both are RIGHT triangles,
    (ii) hypotenuse AB and hypotenuse BC are equal in length,
    and
    (iii) measure of angle ABE = 90 degrees - measure of angle CBO = measure of angle BCO.]

    20:00 -- 20:50
    Both Mathletes missed this question.
    (a^2 + b^2)^2 = a^4 + 2 * a^2 * b^2 + b^4, or
    15^2 = 153 + 2 * a^2 * b^2.
    Hence, a^2 * b^2 = 36. (Note: It is NOT that a*b = 36.)
    (a*b)^2 = 36 where a and b are real numbers.
    So a*b = 6 or -6 and the correct answer is -6.
    (Note: IF we CHANGE this problem INTO:
    "........ a + b = 15 and a^2 + b^2 = 153, .........",
    THEN we WILL get a*b = 36.)
