Find the square , if you can find it, them find its area

(6-X)²+4² = 4² +(4+X)² 36-12X+ X²= 16 + 8X + X² 20x = 20 X = 1 Area of the square = 1² = 1unit² |

  A = (24 - 8√5) ÷ 5 ≈ 1.22229124 unit². Cc. Mrshape |

Show your workings |

Martinez39:Try again sir |
| Re: This Is Treasure Hunt (mr Shape) by Mrshape(op): 7:54am On May 05, 2019 |
Should I drop workings? |

Mrshape:Yes |

[quote author=Mrshape post=78115557][/quote]This should do it A rectangle is formed at the centre by merging the two squares. So if x is the length of the square L of the rectangle = 2x b of the rectangle = length of the square = x Diagonal = x√5 Now 4² + 4² = (4+ x√5)² 32 = (4+x√5)² 4+x√5 = 4√2 x = (4√2 - 4)/√5 Area of the square = x² = (4√2 - 4 )²/5 = 0.5490unit²

femi4:No sir, I will post solution soon |
| Re: This Is Treasure Hunt (mr Shape) by Mrshape(op): 10:27am On May 05, 2019 |
Solution.

| Re: This Is Treasure Hunt (mr Shape) by Mrshape(op): 10:32am On May 05, 2019 |
If you have any objection or questions regarding my solution feel free to ask. |
| Re: This Is Treasure Hunt (mr Shape) by Nobody: 11:34am On May 05, 2019 |
Mrshape:Can you explain some of the intuition and reasoning behind the solution in words? |
| Re: This Is Treasure Hunt (mr Shape) by Mrshape(op): 11:39am On May 05, 2019 |
Darivie04:Ok sir I will |
| Re: This Is Treasure Hunt (mr Shape) by Mrshape(op): 11:56am On May 05, 2019 |
Darivie04:Divide the Shape into two parts by drawing a symmetrical line as shown in the diagram. Since the square is between two circles it is obvious the line will divide the square into a rectangle of top lenght 1/2(lenght of square and the other side of the rectangle will be also equal to the square lenght because it was not divided Next form a right angled triangle by projecting a vertical line from the vartice of the rectangle to interseect at right angle with an horizontal line draw from the center of the circle. Note the vertical line will (radius (2)-lenght of square) The horizontal line will be (radius(2) -1/2 lenght of the square) And the hypotenuse is =radius (2) Since the vertical and horizontal line must intersect at right angle (2-0.5x)^2+(2-x)^2=2^2. The rest are algebra...... |

femi4:From your diagram the diagonal of the right angle must not always pass through both centers of the circles the vartices are touching, That's were you got it wrong sir. |

Mrshape:No objection, I tried that route and got some negative values. 1 Like |

femi4:You are welcome sir. |
