64 = 65? (1 Viewer)

Hmmmmmmm?

 

[eViLnUt]

gd one...there r so many kinds of similar problems floating around i've given up tryin 2 figure dem out...lolz

 

[PoP 'n' Fresh]

nice trick

however when the two main triangles join for the rectangle, they dont match...
and at the top right theres a little glitch you can catch...

this creates a chain effect and equals the 1 square missing..

although i like the other one better with the hole in it... that was challenging

I figured it may be useless posting this question up.. seeing as though i figured many of u would figure the answer out in a split second... or instead maybe attack me after i give the answer if no one ends up figuring it out which i doubt...

but meh.. who cares...

11+60 = 12

by the way there are two solution to this... maybe even 3...

 

[Gavvvvvin]

^ Whats the answer?

 

[physician]

^ Whats the answer?

giving up so early... give it a little thought...

The diagram is shown inaccurately. The first segment of the diagonal of the rectangle has a gradient of 2/5 while the rest has a gradient of 3/8. Shown in attachment.

Here it is shown accurately:

*sigh
let a=b, a!=0
a²=ab
a²+a²-2ab=ab+a²-2ab
2(a²-ab)=a²-ab
2=1
65=64
QED

 

[maths > english]

let a=b
a²=ab
a²+a²-2ab=ab+a²-2ab
2(a²-ab)=a²-ab .....(1)
2=1 .....(2)
65=64

from (1) to (2) you divided by 0 cause a²-ab = a²-a(a)

 

[Trev]

Yes, well that would be the trick to it!

 

[withoutaface]

I'd be kinda worried if you guys didn't see it

 

[maths > english]

prob shouldnt have posted it. was a bit obvious

11+60 = 12

11 + 6⁰ = 12

11 + 1 = 12

just a stab

 

[Trev]

11 + 6⁰ = 12

11 + 1 = 12

just a stab

So then, would the other "solution" be:
1¹ + 6⁰ = 1*2
1 + 1 = 2

Yes?....

 

[physician]

11 + 6⁰ = 12

11 + 1 = 12

just a stab

wow.. i never thought of that.. although that's not the answer... but that could work.. the fact that u decided to put 6 to the power of zero... is a good sign that ur on the right track.. it's quite simple really.. just add a few things here and there... and u'll see that the answer was starring u right in the face...

can you pm me the answer?

or provide a spolier

QED

a^2=ab... n so (a^2-ab)=0...
how can u divide by 0...

 

[MiniT]

a^2=ab... n so (a^2-ab)=0...
how can u divide by 0...

it's a trick question that's why, teachers like to spring it on unsuspecting students lol, maths teachers are evil!
