[@fabriciolopes6007]

There is another elegant way to do this question, this was the way i did this question when it first came to me: My solution is about to prove that this EF segment defined by a 45° in the square is aways tangent to the quarter of circunference with unity radious and center in A. To do this take the quarter of circunference and trace a tangent segment of it, now with the intersection point "P" trace AP and look that the pairs of triangles ADE, APE and ABF,APF are congruents by the Side Side Angle case (SSA - common sides, unity side and straight angle). With it, see the congruence between DAE, PAE and PAF, BAP angles, nevertheless how DAE+PAE+PAF+BAP=90° and DAE=PAE, PAF=BAP, then PAE+PAF=45°, proving that EAF will aways be 45°. So, we can guarantee that if we pass a quarter circunference in the problem with radious 1 and center A it will tangent EF. Doing this, let the intersection be an X point, now observe the AXF and ABF triangles - they are congruent by the same case before - and see that AFB and AFX(AFX=AFE) angles are both 70°, letting angle AEF= 65°(AFE+FEA+EAF=180° - EAF=45°, AFE=70°).

Presh's way ("half angle" model) is good, I just want to show alternative, which is good too. Draw FH perpendicular to AE and meet @ H, thus A,B,F,H and E,C,F,H are co-circular (concyclic), respectively. So ∠HBF=∠HAF=45° (circumferential angle), so BH must be the diagonal of ABCD; connect DH (which must be diagonal), so ∆ADH congruent to ∆CDH, thus ∠DAH=∠DCH=90-45-20=25°, hence, ∠HFE =25° too, bcz it's circumferential angle, so we get ∠AEF=90-25=65° As for second part of the problem, we can use Gougu theorems and similar triangles (∆ADE and ∆FHE) to get answer, that's 2 (for you guys to do 😁).

Just saw the problem. But as a ninth grader in China, this is a model all of us had to learn "角含半角模型“ translated to an angle that is half of another angle. Basically, there is this thing that is always true, and it's that if there is a 45 degree angle inside a 90 degree angle, then BF+DE is always equal to EF. And if tanBAF=1/2, then tanDAE is always 1/3 ( The second part is proofed by the formula tan(a+b)= 1+tana+tanb/ 1-tanatanb). This is a problem that is really easy for us 9th graders in China, and there are all kinds of variations, like 30 degrees or 60 degrees, or removing some sides. Though it is good to see other countries actually have these kind of problems as well.

It’s possible to prove, using the exact same argument, that EF is tangent to the circle centered in A with radius 1, for ALL pair of points EF on the sides such that EAF = 45. It’s easy to see that if P in EF is the circle’s point of tangency, then DE = EP and FB = FP. Therefore, p(CEF) = (CE + ED) + (CF + FB) = 2.

Solution after pausing at 0:56 and not looking at comments: First get all the angles I can significantly DEA is 65 degrees and that DAE and FAB add to 45 degrees. Next relize that since DAE plus FAB equals EAF you can fold ADE and ABF exactly onto triangle AEF meaning that angle AEF is equal to DEA 65 degrees. Next consider line EF and that it is DE + FB so the perimeter of triangle CEF is BF+FC + DE+DC we know BF+FC is 1 and that DE+DC is 1 so the perimeter of triangle CEF is 2.

Using *Trigonometry* - Angles around 45 are 90-70=20 and 90-(45+20)=25. Therefore all other sides (and therefore angles) become computable - AB=BC=CD=DA=1, AE=sec(25), AF=sec(20), DE=tan(25), BF=tan(20), EC=1-tan(25), FC=1-tan(20). Lastly, EF^2 = CF^2 + CE^2 = (1-tan(20))^2 + (1-tan(25))^2 = (tan(20)+tan(25))^2. The x and y in the video are tan(20) and tan(25).

Yep. Same method)

[@herculesperseus6326]

How would you actually do it with this method lol, there's no clue to prove any triangle to be congruent

[@uninstalledsoftwares6266]

Does it need to be congruent.. I dont think so!!

[@thechessplayer7076]

Wait a min. In triangle EFC EF square = FC square + EC square That isnt satisfying for their values in terms of x and/or y

[@mrmacross]

Watched a handful of these videos in the last two days. I noticed not once (yet) has the Law of Sines come into play. It actually made finding the perimeter easier than finding the measure of the angle. Still, the solution does seem more satisfying than using Law of Sines.

If, instead of rotating 90 degrees, you fold both flaps in to the central triangle, solving the 2nd question becomes trivial.

[@zaqmko0]

Nicely done.

Nice..

[@vampire_catgirl]

@@herculesperseus6326 The triangle has a 45 degree angle in the middle of a 90 degree angle. The other angles have to add up to 45 to meet the 90, so they're the same

@@vampire_catgirl which means one of them is 20 and the other is 25. How would you mathematically fold both flaps into the central triangle with any evidence it's a perfect fit

[@jaganmohanreddymothe6695]

I learnt the answer and advice others to learn. Thanks so much.

[@christianfunintuscany1147]

I found x = 65 and P = 2 ... it looked easier than what it actually is 🧐

[@leif1075]

How did you solve for P though? The way he did it?

[@christianfunintuscany1147]

Leif we know the angles DEA = 65 and AFB = 70 so we can find EC = 1- 1/tg(DEA), FC = 1 - 1/tg(AFB) and EF comes straight from Pitagora ...

[@leif1075]

@@christianfunintuscany1147 what the heck is tg?? And pythagoras doesnt eliminate the variables in this case so you dont get the answer..

[@christianfunintuscany1147]

Leif sorry ... tg is the function tan, if you know the angle you know its tangent and because the side equal 1 you can easily find the other side, you can do this in both triangles ADE and ABF in this way you find FC and EC then with Pitagora theorem you find EF and you have the perimeter FC + EC + EF. ok ? Sorry for the confusing tg ... :)

Good thing i stumbled upon this channel by chance. This is a good brain exercise. Looking forward to more math problems.

[@alwaysgonnagiveyouup4332]

:D

[@richardbloemenkamp8532]

Actually quite simple and intuitive if you consider it as as a folding problem. You fold B to a point on the line EF. Then you fold D to the same point. The circumference is then equal to BC + DC = 2.

[@RogerNeyman]

Yes, it's true, but how can you prove that the folded point B (for example) lies on the line EF? That is, that the height of triangle AEF is 1 ?

[@miken3260]

I found the length of the perimeters interesting, as far as the angles all triangles equal 180 degrees so solving the unknown angle was no problem .

[@leo_the_ukrainian]

It's much more simple actually. And the only possible answer is a bit unexpected Let's challenge the inputs of this task and look at the angle AEC try to follow my logic: 1) AFB = 70 degrees then AFC = 180-70 = 120 the sum of interior angles of quadrangle is 360 degrees then let's measure an angle AEC looking at AFCE quadrangle: AEC = 360 - EAF (45) - AFC (120) - FCE (90) = 105 on the other hand: 2) FAB = 180 - AFB (70) - ABF (90) = 20 then, DAE = 90 - EAF (45) - FAB (20) = 25 then, AED = 180 - EDA (90) - DAE (25) = 65 if AED = 65, then AEC = 180 - 65 = 115 so (1) gives us AEC at 105 degrees and (2) gives it at 115 That means that inputs and hence the task iteself was wrong from the very beginning

[@ralphbanaga8096]

This made me realise how out of shape I am with math. I remember having this in my grade 4 mock exams in the Philippines.

[@aidagibbons1045]

Wow! I solved it so easier. With "tan", you find BF and then FC---- with "tan" you find DE and EC and again with "tan" you find FEC angle. Consequently you will find EF. and the primeter.
