It is a 3 4 5 triangle, so the grean base is 4, the height is 6, so the area is 24.

Shifting the green square to the left of the rectangle produces two hypotenuses of 5, and shows that the square takes up half the area of the rectangle. As the square takes up half the horizontal distance of the rectangle, the a^2 + b^2 = c^2 may be rewritten as a^2 + (2a)^2 = c^2. Therefore, 5a^2 = 25 As the square has sides of 2a, its area is 4a^2. Square's area is 25*(4/5) = 20 un^2. I have now watched the video. It seemed unnecessarily complex, but I assume that was because it's meant for teaching about similar triangles rather than getting to the answer as quickly as possible. Shifting the square to the left simplifies things immensely, especially as it's exactly half of the rectangle. Thank you.

Maybe you can help explain where I went wrong because I used a similar approach and got 24 square units I said that the hypotenuse of the entire rectangle was 10 and since there is a Pythagorean triple (3,4,5) with a factor of 10 (5) then I could just multiply the entire triple to get the sides of the rectangle which gave me a rectangle of 6 by 8 or 48sq units. Then I said since the combined length of parts of the hypotenuse that are outside the shaded square is equal to the part that is inside and therefore the square must be half the rectangle. Therefore if the rectangle is 48sq units the square would have to be 24.

@@yehoshuabedziner2314 You went wrong by assuming that the two short sides are 6 and 8. They are, in fact, sqrt(20) and 2*sqrt(20) (the length is twice the height). With the large rectangle, a^2 + b^2 can be re-written as a^2 + (2a)^2 = 5a^2. 5a^2 = 100 (due to the hypotenuse of 10 being squared). As 5a^2 = 100, a = sqrt(20). Whole rectangle is sqrt(20) * 2*sqrt(20) = 40. Halve it for 20. Although using Pythagoras Theorem to help solve, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's a Pythagorean triple. Pythagorean triple is when all sides are integers, but the theorem is just as applicable when they aren't. I hope that helps.

This is exactly how I did it. The key is that the diagonal of the rectangle creates two triangles with proportions 1, 2, sqrt5. Knowing the hypotenuse makes everything else simple. I thought this looked too easy, but it really was easy. Just shift the green square to the right, and the rectangle becomes 1x tall and 2x wide with a diagonal (hypotenuse) of sqrt5x, where x = 2*sqrt5.

Simple solution. Since all the inscribed triangles are similar. Divide the x-axis into 2x, 5x, and 3x. The y-axis is 5x. Now solve for Pythagoras. 5x^2 + 10x^2 = 10^2. x = sqrt(4/5) or approx .8944. To find the area of the green square, A = (5x)^2 or 25x^2 which should be 25 * 4/5 = 20. Alot lot easier than all the work the Premath's technique.

It has been pointed out by several commenters that the figure represents an impossible situation. Too much information is given. If the green figure is a square then there is no STRAIGHT diagonal line of 2, 5, 3 sub sections. You can prove almost anything in that situation. Like: equilateral triangles have side length equal to altitude length. Imo, this problem is not salvagable. If fixed up, it is no longer charming. This channel is great. It doesn't need to display a bogus physical situation.

@@PreMath I took a shortcut in assuming that the triangles would be ratiometric (2/5/3) vs "proving" it with similar triangles, but I got the same result. Even short-circuited that by noting that 2+3=5, sliding the square to the left, and noting that the sides would be x and 2x. A little fast'n'loose, but it worked, and I still could've "proven" it if I had to. So figure out the area of the big rectangle, halve it, and you got the area of the square.

H and K the orthogonal projections of E and F on (BC). BH/AE= HK/EF = KC/FC = cos(angleBCA) = k, so BH = 2.k, HK = 5.k which is the side length of the squate or the height AB of the rectangle ABCD, KC = 3.k, and BC = 10.k. In ABC: 100 = AC^2 = BC^2 + AB^2 = (10.k)^2 + (5.k)^2, So 100 = 125.k^2 The area of the square is (5.k)^2 = 25.k^2= (1/5).(125.k^2) = (1/5).100 = 20.

20 Let the length of the rectangle = m then, since the two small triangles with hypotenuses 2 and 3 are similar to the one with hypotenuse 10, then 10/m = 2/? and 10/m = 3/? Hence, then? = 2/10 or 1/5 m and 3/10m or 0.3 m 0.3 + 0.2 = 0.5 Hence, the length of the square is one-half the length of the rectangle Since the width of the rectangle = the length of the square, then the width of the rectangle = 0.5 m note if the length of the square =0.5m , then its area = 0.25 m^2 Using Pythagorean (m)^2 + (0.5 m)^2 = 10^2 m^2 + 0.25m^2 =100 1.25m^2 = 100 1.25/5 = 100/5 0.25 m^2 = 20 Answer

Let the corners of the green square be GHJK, counterclockwise from top left (corresponding to ABCD). Let the side length of GHJK (and height of ABCD) be s, and let the width of ABCD be w. Draw FM, where M is the point on GH where FM is parallel to BC and AD. As FM is parallel to HJ, JF is parallel to MH, and ∠MHJ = ∠HJF = 90°, FMHJ is a rectangle, and FM = HJ = s. As ∠GAE = ∠JCF, as alternate interior angles, and ∠EGA = ∠FJC = 90°, ∆EGA and ∆FJC are similar triangles. As ∠MFE = ∠JCF by corresponding angles and ∠EMF = ∠FJC = 90°, ∆EMF is also similar to the above triangles. GA/AE = JC/CF = FM/EF GA/2 = s/5 GA = 2s/5 JC/3 = s/5 JC = 3s/5 BC = BH + HJ + JC BC = GA + FM + JC w = 2s/5 + s + 3s/5 w = 2s Triangle ∆ABC: AB² + BC² = CA² s² + (2s)² = (5+3+2)² s² + 4s² = 100 5s² = 100 s² = 100/5 = 20 sq units

I disagree with 20 but 24 as the area of the green area. The rectangle ABCD with diagonal 10m implies that the sides lengths are 8m and 6m. The 6m forms a side of the green area and 4m, a part of the 8m, forms the other side. Therefore area of the green portion is 6x4=24.

I think the assumption that the green area is a SQUARE led to the wrong calculation. The green area is a RECTANGLE based on the DIAGONAL of the whole shape, which is a RECTANGLE and not a SQUARE.
@XennialGuy
@XennialGuy 2 ай бұрын
You are correct. Based on the numbers in this scenario, 24 is the correct answer. The hypotenuse is 10, therefore the sides are 8 and 6. There's no arguing with that. The entire rectangle has an area of 48. No matter where that green square is, it's always going to be 50% because it is half the total hypotenuse. 24 is the correct answer.

Let's find the area: . .. ... .... ..... May P and Q be the upper left and the lower right corner of the green square, respectively, and may R be located on the right side of the green square such that EFR is a right triangle. The right triangles AEP, CFQ and EFR are obviously similar, so we can conclude: EP:FQ:FR = AE:CF:EF = 2:3:5 Since EP+FQ+FR=AB, we obtain: EP + FQ + FR = AB (2/5)*FR + (3/5)*FR + FR = AB 2*FR = AB ⇒ FR = AB/2 The triangle EFR is a right triangle, so we can apply the Pythagorean theorem. With s=AB being the side length of the green square we obtain: ER² + FR² = EF² s² + (s/2)² = EF² s² + s²/4 = EF² 5*s²/4 = EF² ⇒ s² = 4*EF²/5 = 4*5²/5 = 20 Therefore the area of the green square turns out to be: A(green square) = s² = 20 Best regards from Germany

I believe you are assuming 3:4:5 right triangles. If you do, then the shape in the rectangle will not be a square. Try drawing it out and you will see. Start with a piece of paper and mark off 6 units from the same side, and connect that line straight across. From the corner, draw a diagonal to the line you just drew that is 10 units long, and mark off 2, 5, and 3 unit lengths on the diagonal. Now create a rectangle from that point of intersection, and you will see that the shape in the middle will not be a square. It will be a 6x4 rectangle.

The answer should be 36. The diagonal, AC = 10. But AC is the hypotenuse of the right triangle ABC. Right triangle sides ratio=3:4:5. Therefore, AB should be 6. BC should be 8. If AB=6, then the side of the green square=6. Therefore, the area of the green square =(6)(6)=36. The answer of 20 is a possible answer. But it is not the final answer. Its possible that AB=sq.rt. 20 & BC=sq.rt.80.
