This is a geometry puzzle: You have 8 equal segments and you need to make 2 squares and 4 triangles?
Q. The pieces must all be together. I've been working on this puzzle forever! Help, please? lol

A. try as I might, I can only come up with 2 squares and 8 triangles ! :-( 2 possible solutions for that 1) make a square with 4 segments, then make the next square with the same center but rotated 45 deg. it will look like an 8 pointed star. has 2 squares, 8 triangles and 1 octogen 2) make a square. user the remaining 4 segments to make a # sign inside it. has 2 squares, 4 big triangles and 4 small triangles.

Geometry Puzzle?
Q. In the star polygon pictured there are two kinds of interior angles, the points of the star like angle A (measure less than 180 degrees) and the indentations of the star like angle B (measure more than 180 degrees). Assuming that all of the angles of the points of the star have the same measure, all of the angles of the indentations of the star have the same measure, and that the measure of interior angle B is 26 times the measure of interior angle A, determine the measures of angle A and angle B.

In solid geometry, what's the inside of an edge called--a line where 2 planes intersect at < 180 degrees?
Q. You may be interested (or not) in why I'm asking. My personal trainer calls the intersection of the floor and the wall a "corner." For me, a corner is the intersection of two walls and a floor (corner of a room), or of two lines (say, a street corner), or just maybe of two walls in a prefab puzzle piece. I discover I don't have a word for where the floor and the wall intersect. So: Is there a term in 3D graphing or solid geometry for the inside of an edge?
Asked by georgetslc - Thu Sep 4 20:57:54 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I'm with you, a corner in three dimensions requires the meeting of three planes in a point. The angle formed when two planes meet in a line of intersection is the dihedral angle between the planes. Here is a link with a diagram.

Q. Im in geometry pap but its an algebra review (in my opinion its neither but whatever) Anyways here's the question The pet clinic did a study of 75 dogs brought in. 40 of the dogs had fleas, 27 had ticks, and 14 had both. How many dogs had a. fleas but not ticks b.ticks but not fleas c. neither ticks nor fleas i made a venn-diagram and tried like a million ways but i cant get it. And i know im not getting it because its suppose to fit into a puzzle but its not fitting in.

A. Make a Venn diagram with two interlocking loops inside a box. Label one loop F, the other T. There are 75 inside the box. There are 14 in the overlap part of the loops. This means 27 - 14 = 13 in the T loop but outside the overlap part. Also there will be 40 - 14 = 26 in the F loop but outside the overlap part. This leaves how many in the box but outside both loops? It is NOT 8. Can you answer the question with that help?

geometry constructions?
Q. how do you construct a semi-circle within a given square? sort of like
Asked by Monster - Wed Feb 20 22:11:19 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Interesting question, and I am sure there are better answer than mine. Here's how I would do it: 1. The trick is finding out where the origin for the semi-circle need to be. The ratio of the length on the right of the origin to the length on the left is sqrt(2)/2. And the ratio of the length above the origin to the length below the origin is sqrt(2). So what you need is be able to divide a line segment into two parts in that ratio. 2. Starting with your square ABCD as shown in the picture. Extend the segments AD and BC below. On the segment extending AD, pick a point P, construct a line through P parallel to AB. Suppose that the line intersects the line through BC at the point Q. So you have the segment PQ below AB and parallel to it. … [cont.]

struggling with a geometry prob!?
Q. I am puzzled...how do i start this problem: The lengths of the diagonals of a parallelogram are 10 and 20. Compute the area of the inscribed circle. thx for the help

A. area = 20 pi --- Ideas: By similarity, r/5 = 10 / 5sqrt(5) =? r = 10/sqrt(5) area = pi r^2 = pi (100/5) = 20 pi
