Well done  This is correct, although I used a symmetrical point of A instead  The result is still the same though. As for the point B, as you've said, it is not essential to know the position but how about trying to find it? How would you approach that?  Are you studying Maths or so? You're the first person in here who seems to be really good at it I found the point B, but you can answer to the question of the distance without knowing it. You just need the coordinates of A and D for that. The answer is yes. One of my former maths teachers said:
Wise quote from that teacher So you've studied Maths? That's great! I am also going to begin my studies this September and I am also going for Mathematics. By the way, what coordinates did you find for B? |

anyone have any other math challenges? A simple one: a prisonner has been sentenced to life imprisonment but the king decides to offer him a chance to recover his freedom. He tells him: "Take this path. You will find a crossroad. If you choose the right way, you'll become free but be careful, if you're wrong, you shall be killed! Two men at the crossroad can help you but be careful: you may only speak to one of them and ask him one single question! Moreover, one of these men will say the truth and the other one will lie!" Question: how to procede in order to be sure to escape to the death sentence? |

Maths in Lithuania be like Tom haves 81919192822 watermelons. It is 4 ballons less than Maria. How many triangles will be in France, if we know that USA is marked as green? |
