Thanks for adding to my knowledge. I now know what a grid is from the mathematical perspective. wink

Oh you guys are missing something
The obstacle is finding the x value that is what the question is ment to test.
Please try it out,
If no one get it I will post solution later.
But I trust u guys kill it!

I thought it said find the area of the shaded pinwheel. For different square of various sizes, the area of the pinwheel will differ. huh

To be sincere I don't understand your work,
If that is hour final answer,
Please try it out again sir

Sorry, I made a mistake in my calculation.
A = 6a²

The length of one side of the overall square is 5a

Education › Re: Beauty and Brain many of us played with this shape but don't know the name by Martinez39(m): 1:48pm On Apr 10, 2019

If the length of each side of the overall square is 5a the area A required is :
A = (54/5)a² + (357/4)a³

He shouldn't have done what he did. He should have explored foreign opportunities opened to him for his PhD.

I don't want to blame the university totally afterall we're told he was allowed to stay in his apartment after resignation 2 yrs ago.

To me he should have travelled out.

What he did was wrong even in the sight of God. I suspect his family crisis was responsible.

Not really. The main thing is that they've frustrated him.

The Nigerian university system just like what obtains in most government owned organizations is nothing to write home about. Most of those wicked and soulless lecturers are not after their students learning a thing but they just want to frustrate students and make their lives miserable.
It is also on record that even amongst the so called lecturers there are cult like groups that if you don't belong getting ahead in the system will be almost impossible. I remember a very intelligent lecturer then in my school who was a PhD holder for many many years but for reasons best known to the university they refused to make him a prof despite writing tons of books and I presume research papers. Nigeria is a rotten jungle where there are no laws whatsoever. A shame of a nation.

Jealousy, sadism, insecurity and the pull him down syndrome are the causes of these things.

He is not a philosopher. He can never be. He is full of ridiculous garbages and falsehoods and has a pseudo sophisticated appearance. He has the delusion that he is operating on a superior level of knowledge whereas he is basically full of trash.

He is a f00l and he attracts his fellow f00ls who call themselves his followers and are awestruck by his stvpidity. I guess oil and oil mix very well.

How did you guys do it

1) the right triangle is an isosceles triangle. The base angles are equal to π/4 radians (45°). The length of the hypotenuse is 8 units and legs are equal with a size of x units

2) using the Pythagorean Theorem, we have :
x² + x² = 8²
2x² = 64
x² = 32 therefore x = 4√2 units
The area A of the triangle is ½x² = 16 unit²

3) With the angle θ in radians, the area A of a circular sector of a circle with radius r is :
A = ½r²θ
The area A_B of a big sector in the triangle is ½(4)²(π/4) = 2π unit². Both big sectors are equal and the sum of their area is 2A_B = 4π unit².

4) The radius of the small circle is 4(√2 - 1) units and the area of the small sector in the triangle is ½[4(√2 - 1)]²(π/2) = 4π(√2 - 1) unit².

5) Let the area of the green region be A_G , we have :
A = 2A_B + A_S + A_G
A_G = A - 2A_B - A_S
A_G = 16 - 4π - 4π(√2 - 1) = 16 - 8π(2 - √2) ≈ 1.27758105 unit²

These things can be so hilarious. When I heard my mother in law I nearly fell of my chair. This is woman who has had 7 children and several grandchildren believing that children are placed in the womb by god. I just didn't laugh out of respect but inside me I was tumbling around laughing.

BTW did you see my edit? John Safran Vs God won an award for best comedy. That's what shadeyinka is trotting out as proof. The best comedy. LMFAO!

Are you minding shadeyinka? That one has made up his mind to f00l himself.

LoL! How people persist in believing these things should be a new type of science field. I just got off speaking with my mother in law and she still believes it is the god that puts children in the woman's womb. I no fit laugh. Its no different from our friend shadeyinka who believes demons make people bark like dogs and what not. LMFAO!

My mum believes that one shouldn't read near the window in the night with a light source. I asked her why and she say that a lot of spirits move out at night and it's best not to attract their attention. WTF?! grin

I was so annoyed, we nearly quarreled because there was heat in the house, no electricity and I had to sit INSIDE. That was years back. How oppressive unrealistic beliefs can be.

A family friend told me that others are either muslims, christians, traditional etc. and that the world is too deep and dangerous and I should belong to somewhere for my own safety. WTF?! grin

My brother is fond of picking a fight with me and my sister and can be very insulting when provoked. One sunday morning, he queried my sister and I on why we didn't go to church. We told him point blank that we are not going and he said....................... "what if the trumpet sounds?" grin

There is nothing wrong about his suicide. He had one mission and one mission alone. To defeat Mathematics and he failed at it and decided that it is time he quits the matrix.

We should rather be thankful for his sincerity of purpose, in quitting when he failed and not blaming others for his inability to win and above all, for his steadfastness in using his brains and brains alone, not his coins, not his loins and definitely not onions.

Real souls do not die, we simply change the vehicle. There is no point to wish his Soul to rest in Peace. Peace is illusion, he is everywhere as Numbers and Maths in the Universe. We all are.

Most theologians I've heard on this subject think that all created intelligences are held at an epistemic distance during their moral development - including angelic beings. Its slightly ridiculous to causally state as though it were a verified datum what conditions obtained for beings about which we know almost nothing in realms about we know almost nothing.

Most muslim scholars think the quran is valid. Allah akbar.

Same with my school l had my first degree: it takes 3-4yrs to get a masters degree, same degree that is possible within three semesters in the US....

The saddest thing is that Nigerian postgraduate programmes teach nothing new. Many of them are repetitions of 300-400lvl BSc work and more annoying is that they take longer to complete.
