My favorite math dude getting his bag. How exiting.

Yippe

More sponsorships to come!!

[@sebastianm6600]

Brilliant. I guess that means no more videos where 69 and 420 are the solutions. 🤣

[@NathanJAdams]

At last week's math department meeting (I teach Spec Ed at a ~600 student high school) I mentioned this fun new channel I discovered called Andy Math. This video is going in an email to the department. Thanks, these are a lot a fun.

[@josneaka4866]

A tiny bit bummed this one didn't use pi, but still a fun watch! lol! Happy Pi Day!

[@ArkOwl02]

I JUST REALIZED, I GOT THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON MY MATH TEST! I’m so gonna watch all your videos looking for more problems they put on my tests, sneaky teachers…

[@richardl6751]

Asker: "How do you know how to answer all these problems." Andy: "I paid attention in high school."

[@HikeRPS]

Finally same answear as Andy!

You have a Brilliant Sponsor. How exciting.

How eclectic!

How on Earth is this eclectic?

[@nunyobidness571]

I started to get scared until I was assured at the end that it was indeed exciting.

[@MikeSimoneLV]

Absolutely adore this channel, and send it to my kids all the time

[@abrarmahir2338]

Always watch your interesting problems. Thankful to your videos.

[@henrygoogle4949]

How. Brilliant.

[@Meteor147]

How exciting

[@jjosuer]

Pretty sure I’ve looked at Brilliant. I will definitely look again. Anything that demonstrates the deep beauty of mathematics is truly exciting to me. Thanks.

[@phyphor]

Do I know everything you cover? Yes. Do I still watch all your videos, regardless? Also yes.

[@whale_and_petunias]

So happy for you that you got sponsored!

[@matthewkendrick8280]

Get your bag brother

[@Tijme]

Hey, this was the question I sent

[@frankstrawnation]

How exciting!

[@zebrabw01]

cool

[@goodshiro10]

Wow great

[@IRLtwigstan]

I have this math challenge I’ve tried for a while but still can’t get it. Is there a way you can try it? Also how would I be able to give the challenge? Edit: I don’t know if it’s possible.

[@markhughes7927]

Tops❤!

[@baconslime640]

Andy stays winning

[@r1marine670]

They dont cancel, they reduce to 1!

[@timothyhunt2117]

You make me feel so dumb. Thank you for humbling me.

[@elfspicer]

You're good

[@Chamarel]

I got this question on my math exam!

[@killerraj532]

I am a designer so sometimes I use 3d model to solve these questions. But I also do this with my own. And usually the number is without any decimals so I solve it 2 times reaching same answer 15.430 and then give up to look for your explanation and get the same answer (never doubting me again)

[@randonguy3066]

hey, how you that motions step by step? It would help me in my online classes

[@jacksimmons4776]

You sponsored your own video?

[@AhmedHossam-cu2bw]

Yo this one could be solved in hundreds of ways 😂 I solved it then I watched you do it absolutely different ways same results

[@user-sb9ho5jz3e]

could be easier if using Law of Sines

[@User-jr7vf]

How easy

[@inserteunnombreapropiado9079]

I did it using trigonometry. Let: x be the length of the lower side of the right. y be the length of the side of the square. z be de length of the lower side of the left. Using tan(), we can get this: x = y÷tan(60°) z = y÷tan(30°) Then, we can solve for y: x + y + z = 13 cm (y÷tan(60°)) + (y÷tan(30°)) + y = 13 cm y(1÷tan(60) + 1÷tan(30°) + 1) = 13 cm y = 13 cm÷(1÷tan(60°) + 1÷tan(30°) + 1) I plugged it into my calculator and gave me y = 4√3 - 3. y² = 57 - 24√3.

[@user-oi1ky9zl9u]

We cry over math not boys 🙂

[@ThePoker215]

I got the Area as 169/(4+2*sqrt*(3)). Not sure where I went wrng

[@headoftss]

At one stage root 3 x root 3 becomes root 9 (then, later, 3) at another stage root 3 x root 3 immediately becomes 3. How. Odd.

[@the7engine]

I have the same question! The first one at 2:13 confuses me. Why is it so?

[@skiuisue]

thanks doctor math

[@leprifacioncustard4921]

I tried solving this myself and ended up with sqrt(3)•x=sqrt(3)•x and that is correct I will accept no other answers

[@skidmark696]

I am having to find 3d prism’s surface area in school, but I am very bad at it. Do you know the formula?

thank you i forgot you did a video on it :)@@AndyMath

[@AndyMath]

Are you also doing triangular prisms? andymath.com/triangular-prisms-surface-area/@@skidmark696

[@skidmark696]

@@AndyMath yeah, this is perfect thanks for the help.

[@r1marine670]

Or sum to ZERO!

[@mcrummd]

Too heavy. Plus the camera wasn't invented yet.

[@zunkman1]

If you knew x=3.93, why didn't you just square 3.93 to get 15.43. THAT would have been Brilliant!

[@Grizzly01-vr4pn]

Because that is just a decimal approximation of the area. You should always try to arrive at an exact form of the solution first, rather than approximating as you go. 3.93² actually gives you 15.44 (rounded down), not the correct rounded down approximation of 15.43
