lol before i even opened this thread thats the picture i thought of first lol its pure genius and even has an fb group dedicated to it lol Biggrin

when I saw that picture, one of my first thoughts was "x = 5".

but just to say x = 25 lol ...i think c squared = a squared = b squared

but x cant be 25 tho .... i think the sides may be labelled wrong or im using the wrong formulae

hmm no thats the right formulae for pythagorean theorem

you gave x squared. which is 25. X is not the same as x squared.

and no, I did not even remember that formula. I just saw it and instinctively thought 5. then feefs had to explain to me how I got to that and mentioned the formula.

i think ur having problems with the formula.

A squared + B squared = C squared

THEN u find the square root of C squared - and thats your answer

ahhh ok find the squuaree route ...noooo wonder i kept getting the wrong answer lol

My maths teacher showed us this. The only person stupid enough to do that is someone who knows that they got almost every other question right.
The geek inside me wants to work this out:
x2(x squared)=4 squared+ 3 squared
x2= 16+9= 25
x= 5
Sorry I just love maths Biggrin

Nah, If they were clever enough to have that many Qs right, they'd try and get all the Qs right to have 100% or near enough. I think someone who knows they're gna fail would do something like that ^

i would think tht too

great minds think alike....;)
