On an episode of Futurama, Fry was awared 4.3 billion dollars I beleive. I've been to lazy to go over the numbers and for some reason I really want to know if 4.3 billion is the correct figure.

Square ABCD has sides of length 14 units. A circle is drawn through A and D, so that it is tangent to BC as shown in the figure. What is the radius of the circle?

I would say about 8 units for the radius...give or take...Square ABCD has sides of length 14 units. A circle is drawn through A and D, so that it is tangent to BC as shown in the figure. What is the radius of the circle?

you can just graph those to find the difference...Two points, (2, 5) (19, 12)
Find the distance using basic formula
D=Square root of X Subroot 1 minus X subroot 2 plus Y subroot 1 minus Y subroot 2

That was random, but in math, there's no such thing as give or take. Also, the answer to this problem is not a number that has a lot of decimals, so you can get the exact answer.8)

well i do know that circle takes the square...[QUOTE="BEAN_LARD_MULCH"][QUOTE="thirstychainsaw"][QUOTE="Sandro909"]

It looks like a derivation of the Lorentz transform off the top of my head, which is a transform and not really a problem to be solved. Let me know if I'm off, though. And to the TC, here's a problem for you. The royal family of Sweden will even give you a prize if you do it!Please Log In to post.
