benji93:
are you sure the 3rd term of the sequence is not 49

if its 49 then its (2n+1)^2

rashywire:
pls help with this,
find d nth term of d sequence : 9,25,47,....

are you sure the 3rd term of the sequence is not 49

DeeCherry:
yes I can but I want a full solution. pls

your question is incomplete,what are you finding?

From one fraction of the four square, which result to the bigger square, note;

6 + x = 4 + y (sides of square)

Taking a sketch of another circle equidistance from d bigger and d smaller circle the radius of the bigger circle will be bisect into three equal partsm

So we have

6 + x = 6 + 3 = 9

But we know;

6 + x = 4 + y

6 + 3 = 4 + y

Y = 9 - 4

Y = 5


But area of a square = L x L = 9 x 9 = 81cm^2

So that area of the bigger square. = 4 x area of single square

= 4 x 81 = 324cm^2

let me give you a hint,complete the triangle by joining the dip points,then by applying circle theorem you have the upper angle gives you 90 degrees,then you can use congruent shapes to find the radius of the larger circle and then the area of the square

benji93:
What is the area of the large square ?

men,i tink this will make you sweat

What is the area of the large square ?

Find the area of the Shaded Portion if the side of the Square measures 20 cm.
Give the answer in cm^2.

(Use the Value of Pi as 3.14 only. Exactly 3.14)

I have question for you all.Two fathers and two sons went to the market to buy bottles of wine,they all had #450 whiles each bottle costs #150,they to share the bottle of wines equally and not in fractions,how is this possible.

For a young'n you should still consider God; when All options are exhausted, you can then choose ATHEISM

hahahahahahahahahaha,what kind of crooked advice is that,i beg advice am properly o

Do Nigerian universities not offer Biomedical Engineering?

L2CD766:
Nah. I'm atheistic

then remind them that you think they should be fair in their decisions,as a footnote you can make a recommendation to them,you think sososo and so are worthwhile,you are an atheist,but rest assuredly God will say Amen.

Abdulasod:
Anyone who has been admitted to U of T?

easy man,It will be out on the 13th of march,and i think it will be a combined decision, MCF and admission.

ASU,men you have caused more than enough upset,but if there is an opportunity there is hope,I know by march so many guys will be enraptured by the works of the omnipotent, do not be moody i pray you,but let that candle of hope keep burning.You will say i said it.

Nad95:

Seriously you guys are funny!
You couldn't afford University in Nigeria, you get one abroad and you are concerned with Ranking.......

MSU or McGill or Duke or Arizona or Berkeley. All are great schools, be more concerned about where you as a person would fit in.
That's my take!

if you are given the choice to choose between water and milk,which one will you opt for(you have a reason for your choice but it doesn't make my own choice substandard if different,as they are both well suited for different situations,the guy gave his parameters,and u are to make a case if you are spoilt for choices,which is possible,highly ranked schools boast of highly prestigious alumni,which opens a lot of opportunities for you(old boys' connection),obviously a famished man won't refuse a slice of bread because cheese was not added,he would hold unto the bread tightly,when he is done with consumption,afterwards he would belch and say oh i wished i had that bread with some butter with margarine or butter,this guy wants this place to be lively,allow him i pray you.I rest my case.No man is a fountain of knowledge,God bless Nairaland

Gospel367:
So you prefer american uni na? For someone like who is more interested in being creative, creating things and being independent than degree or where it was gotten from (although i value good grades oh for plan B or prerequisites to greater plans), which would you recommend for me? Canadian uni or american uni? Mcgill or msu? Besides, am going for undergrad studies only unless or untill better things comes my way. God willing.

America,MSU because of its location,you have bigger and wider opportunities bro,as per companies particularly the advantage of the old boy's network if you dont want to pursue postgraduate,America na the land of opportunities no doubt,even as you school,you would be allowed to do paid jobs,whilst this is limited in canada.America gives everybody equal opportunities as far as you are a go to,nd you can also consider stipends when you begin work after graduation,no body pays like those people,naija to get supernetwork for that place he n be small ooo,but if you get Mcgill instead of MSU no problem,it is rated above Msu,meaning yo will survive every hurdle,you have opportunities.God bless NIgeria,we are in.

Gospel367:
Mcgill university or michigan state university. Which will you take? Forget the online rankings because they are sometimes sentimental oh. Some unis rank high because of the alumnis they produced , graduate programs they offer, their prestige and fame internationally (looking at cambridge and oxford among few others. Hey! Mcgill had great people like lord rutherford of our high school atomic chemistry who discovered alpha and beta rays). Some of the schools ranked high are not even suited for undergrad program but graduate programs. Some may not have enough international community which can make you look like a minority, some are for geniuses. Believe you me: not everyone is a conc genius. So if you find yourself there, frustration may set in and you wish you were in a tough Nigerian uni solving their unending mathematics. So all things boils down to compatibility. Why would someone drop out of a uni like U of toronto when he had all the finances he needed. Why would an alumni give a very bad review of his school? That is because he never fitted in. Round peg in a square whole. (I hope I quoted it right@benji). So choose and pray wisely. Goodluck to all my fellow ambitious dreamers. Though we dream big, our dreams always comes to reality. Keep on dreaming wisely. Thats the spirit.

thank you for the honour,you are right about the ranking being based on alumni,not just anway,the index also includes level of research activities,organization,teaching methodologies and methods,i for instance i prefer an environment that will enable me to think and make,here i think often,but no materials to make,this gives me a lot of frustration,i am not bothered about the As as it doesnt really tell ur level of intelligence,it only tells ur level of awareness and retentive memory,people of high IQs care less abt As,they care more about that thing that makes your theory wrong,so if u ask them to explain and not define,you would open your mouth wide agape at their wit,you cannot make an omelette wothout breaking eggs.God Bless Nigeria

Gospel367:
Hello peeps! Happy sunday to you all. To keep the thread lively while expecting good news, can we do some analysis. Which country and unis is better? Canadian unis or american uni? In terms of opportunities, academic flexibility and toughness etc. Note: Lets base our analysis on the mastercard schools.
2ndly, if you recieved this scholarship in both Mcgill and Msu, which one will you go for? For me, I will go for ......(*undecided and probably confused*) oh..I will go for one with better undergrad experience and probably easier academic ie flexibility and even more opportunities. I heard that most canadian unis are less easier and have more tough academic curriculum than the american unis. Mind you: am not afraid of the academic curriculum in both schools and I love both. By the way, I have got a long thing.(*smiles*). I am a man. Whats your take on this?

i would pick american schools any day any time,cos they have a diversified input level,and you know the more diversified you are the more variously knowledgable you are,the greater the depth of your research as you have access to the richest pool of researchers,canadian schools are rating high anyway,according to one reknowned website Uof T and Mc gill were placed at the 20th and 21st positions respectively, for teaching methodologies at undergraduate level Canadian universities are doing great alongside their american competitors,they emphasize on high grades,and less on graduate programs,i think it is good if your UG education is good enough to launch you into the fray of intellectual competition, in terms of ranking MSU rates close to 180th place,and according to my finding in regards to my discussion with chrisval,they have larger engineering classes,they admitted over a 1000 Engineering students,and the of international students representation there is good enough to be reckoned with,i dont know abt you but some pple prefer relatively smaller classes,and that is more effective in my opinion,also with Uof T according an interview graced by one of their Engineering professors,they admit close to 800 engine students,but they are usually split into 8 sections for effective management,also you would offer one Engineering course in your first year which will properly introduce you to Engineering creativity and design,so if u be sharp guy u go don start dey design car before you go start your majors,you go use your brain,he no be so u want,i will keep streaming in my updates,God Bless Nairaland.

February 27th!
It's on their website!

No,you are mistaken,bro, february 13th for the semifinalist whilst march 27th for the finalists

Gospel367:
I guess the schools would have started the scholarship review process by now.

yes i think the review has began,last week i communicated to MCF ASU concerning the recommendation form AND i got a message from ASU that they are currently reviewing the applications of all candidates,and they thank me for bringing the problem to their notice,we will contact you in february,that was how i could confirm that the semifinal list would be out in the first 2 weeks of february

Gospel367:
Met a guy from Uganda on facebook. He was admitted to Mcgill also. Seems Mcgill is admitting much people than last year.

yes good for you,u just now have to pray that you in line you will be selected as an MCF beneficiary,this year is your year,done deal

chrisviral:
Wish it were that easy not to worry!
MSU is a great school, but the crowd thing (about 17000+ incoming class) worries me, I may be a crowd guy but not in a classroom setting but I trust God.
Compare that to Duke with just about 1700 incoming class our of which 200+ is just Engineering, it's just a wonderful class setting.

But whichever the case, M grateful to God.

yes oo,i just checked,but that makes it more competitive,for class of 2018 31545 applied and only 1721 were enrolled,its highly rated,whilst michigan 7842 undergraduate studentswere enrolled in 2012,that should amount to over a 1000 engineering students,you making a perfect choice,as an Engineering class is more effective and interactive with a small number, you need to pray hard for duke,but you need to know that despite the relatively larger number at michigan,i know they will have a way of breaking the total into at most 100 students,just like toronto also admits admitting about 800 engineering students,but divide the class into sub-classes of 100 students,i am currently reading Engineering so i know how you feel about class size,irrespective of the small class size considered for Engineering,Engineering classes for the 1st and second year are relatively larger,as all Engineering students averagely offer the same foundation courses.If the however large is it is matched by the facilities available,it is ok,but you know African Engineering sucks,even here in Ghana,Nigerians think Ghana is better of but it is at par or perhaps worst,the only advantage is,Ghanaian universities seldom go on strike,here is the problem of class overflow(you wont think that would happen for Enginnering),inefficiency and understaffment,faculty doesn't care about the students,but the opposite characterise Engineering Abroad,the care about their students,Schooling Abroad is good,as it helps you improve ur research skills and creativity as against someone who is now about plunging himself into intense research and design without being firmed up,he would struggle you know,infact some of us have developed some ideologies that only amount to fitting a square peg in the round hole that Africa is.So i won fix my square head in a square hole

benji93:
programme,sorry

worry less,chris,i just read the other comments on this thread and it appears you already have been admitted to MSU

benji93:
i understand,i would deign to do tht too,but what course are u offering at U of T

programme,sorry

chrisviral:
Lol
M not sure you wanna do that to yourself.

i understand,i would deign to do tht too,but what course are u offering at U of T

benji93:
she try well o,she dey give some people hope,i no go lie

@chrisval den u must have killed wassce,wetin u get for waec? shebi u get toronto last year,folks need urs for guestimation

chrisviral:
You be kick ass lady ooo

she try well o,she dey give some people hope,i no go lie

Vickygirk:
pls tell me wat is the minimum requirement for engineering in toronto... since u no

i think same B2 is the minimum requirement for your core subjects too,you need to have scored high grades in English,as that would be enough to replace an alternative English language Test,i hope this is not too much and much of a disincentive

Vickygirk:
pls tell me wat is the minimum requirement for engineering in toronto... since u no

WAEC

Candidates that are completing the West African Senior School Certificate Examination system are required to present:

Grades of at least B2 in Math, Chemistry and Physics in the West African Examination Certificate level (WAEC)

Did ur referees complete their reference letter online before the deadline?

toronto's decision will be out on march 27th i beg don't be too nervous it is well,LCD is only trying to be mischievous.
