There is no one like you, you are the best teacher in the world🥰
Thanks dear for your continued love and support!❤️
You are the best!
The barrier students must overcome is that there are not enough equations to solve for a and b. PreMath was able to narrow it down to one equation and 2 unknowns (a and b). However, we only need to know the product of a and b to find the area of the white triangle, not the individual values of a and b. One solution approach would be to find the area of the white triangle for the special case of ABCD being a square. Then, letting s be the side of the square, a = b = s and you have one equation with one unknown. The problem statement does not rule out a square. So, you solve, get a value for s² and subtract the combined area of the red, green and blue triangles to get the area of the white triangle. The problem statement implies that the same solution applies to the general case of the rectangle, so you present that as your solution.
If the problem statement is modified to require students to solve ABCD being the general case of a rectangle, students are effectively given a clue that the solution is valid for a range of values of a and b, in this case, whenever the product ab equals 18 + 2√(51).
Super!
Thanks for the nice feedback ❤️
نشكر حضرتك للمجهود والمعلومة انا اوجدت الناتج بنظرية ايجاد المساحة الداخلية المظلله فى الشكل =مساحة الشكل الخارجى _مجموع مساحة الشكل الداخلى والناتج كان عدد صحيح وليس عدد عشرى. اسفة للاطالة وارجو التصحيح لو هناك خطا فى الحل
Let AD=BC=a ; AB=CD=b
Area of rectangle ABCD=ab
CF=12/a ; AF=10/b
DE=AD-AE=a-10/b
DF=CD-BF=b-12/a
Area of triangle DEF=1/2(DE)(DF)=1/2(a-10/b)(b-12/a)=1/2ab(ab-10)(ab-12)=7
(ab-10)(ab-12)=14ab
ab=18+2√51=32.28cm^2
White triangle area=32.28-(5+6+7)=14.28 cm^2.❤❤❤ Thanks sir Best regards.
Super! You are the best🌹
Glad to hear that!
Thanks for sharing ❤️
Nice! I finsihed this one very quickly ⏰! I think what maybe made a lot of people fail to do this puzzle is labelling all the sides of the triangles with different variables instead of writing the height out in terms of the base, since you are given the area. Its a common pattern i have seen in other problems on your channel!
Nice work!
Thanks for the feedback ❤️
Nice one👍
Thank you! Cheers!🌹❤️
Thank you! I tried to do this on my own before watching the video, and I got the correct answer 🙂
Thank you Sir. I always like your explanations!
Dividimos ABCD en cuatro celdas trazando una horizontal por E y una vertical por F→ Área de las celdas: (2*5-a); a; 14; (2*6-a)→ (10-a)/14=a/(12-a)→ a=18-2√51→ Área ABCD =10+12+14-a=36-18+2√51=18+2√51→ Área BEF =(18+2√51)-5-6-7=2V51 =14,2828....
Gracias y saludos.
Excellent!🌹
You are very welcome!

Un error pequeño: en lugar de (10-a)/14=a=(12-a) debe ser (10-a)/14=a/(12-a). But it's clear anyway (sorry my Spanish is far from perfect). Excellent solution. I was looking for something like that, but failed to complete.
@@think_logically_ Gracias por advertirme de la errata en la ecuación. Corrijo y quedo muy agradecido. Hasta siempre.
@@santiagoarosam430 Por nada
Very well explained
2sqrt51
calling B the base of rectangle, H its height, FC = x, AE = y we can write:
x*H = 12
y*B = 10
(B - x)*(H - y) = 14 => BH - xH - yB + xy = 14
BH = 36 - xy
Now we can divide the rectangle in 4 smaller rectangles in which the upper right rectangle has area = xy, then tracing perpendicular to base and height. Calling xy=a we can calculate the areas of each rectangles as:
10 - a | a
_____________
14 | 12 - a
doing the crossed product we have:
14 a = (10-a)*(12-a)
a² - 36a + 120 = 0
a = 18 - 2sqrt51 = xy
BH = 36 - (18 - 2sqrt51) = 18 + 2sqrt51
White area = 18 + 2sqrt51 - 5 - 7 - 6 = 2sqrt51
Excellent!
Thanks for sharing ❤️
Assumes that at angles at vertices of abcd are 90degrees, not given, anyone can make assumptions.
He does say it is a rectangle.
Which is an assumption not given in the problem
Thank you!
You are very welcome!🌹
Thanks ❤️
AE=bp => DE = b(p-1). Also DF=aq => CF=a(1-q). So we have abp=10; ab(1-q)=12; ab(1-p)q=14. But ab=s - the area of rectangle. So p=10/s => 1-p=1-10s=(s-10)/s and 1-q=12/s => q = (s-12)/s. Thus from third equation (s-10)(s-12)/s² = 14/s with leads to quadratic equation s²-36s+120=0. The rest is clear.
Ok got it correct. At first it seemed to become too complex with sqrt(816) and that there may be a simpler solution. But just continuing I got 2*sqrt(51)
Excellent!
Thanks for the feedback ❤️
very good
by formula, A^2=(5+6+7)^2-4×5×6=18^2-120=204, A=2sqrt(51).😊
Excellent!
Thanks for sharing ❤️
Proof of (5+6+7)²-4*5*6
Great problem and solution. Afraid I am one of the 95%.

Thanks dear 🌹❤️
The solution may be complex at first, but I was able to get it.
Bravo🌹
Fine.
Glad to hear that!

Why is 18-2√51 scenario rejected?
Too small. Area>18 (the combined area of the coloured triangles)
@@DeathZebra@DeathZebra:
Well, that motivation must be in the solution for it to pass the test.
But you have DF = a - 12/b, which means that a > 12/b and therefore ab > 12 (likewise for ED, but only ab > 10). So 18 - 2 * sqrt(51) must be greater than 12 -- it is slightly less than 4, so dismisst. QED.
خیلی زیبا و جالب
ممنون فاطمه عزیزم 🌹❤️
Why the negative root is not possible?
面積必大於0,而18-2×51＾1／2＜0，故不合
my answer is 6 cm square
1) Let's baptize things!
2) x = 5 sq cm
3) y = 6 sq cm
4) z = 7 sq cm
5) Fortunately we have a General Formula for these cases : White Area = "sqrt((x + y + z)^2 - 4xy)"
6) WA = sqrt((18)^2 - 4*(30)) ; WA = sqrt(324 - 120) ; WA = sqrt(204)sq cm ; WA = (2*sqrt(51)) sq cm ; WA ~ 14,3 sq cm
7) Final Answer : The Area of the White Square is equal to approx. 14,3 Square Cm.
NOTE: I reach to the conclusion that the Domain of the Solution (White Area) should be somewhere between : 8 sq cm < WA < 16 sq cm.
The Total of Possible Ordered Pairs (X ; Y) of Integer Solutions is : S {(18 ; 0) ; (20 ; 2) ; (22 ; 4) ; (24 ; 6) ; (26 ; 8) ; (28 ; 10) ; (30 ; 12) ; (32 ; 14) ; (34 ; 16) ; (36 ; 18)}
X = Area of Rectangle [ABCD] and Y = Area of White Triangle [BEF]. And X - Y = X - (5 + 6 + 7) sq cm ; X - Y = 18 sq cm. The difference must always be 18 sq cm.
Excellent!

bad number selected. furhter ,when calculating delta, yoiu'd better keep facters(in this case, 4^2 rather than calculate it out.
The area R of the whole rectangle is:
R = AB*AE+ DE*DF + BC*CF - AE*FC
= 10 + 14 + 12 - AE*FC (1)
Since AE = 10/AB and FC = 12/BC, we get AE*FC = 120/(AB * BC) = 120/R
Plugging this into (1) we get:
R = 36 - 120/R
R^2 - 36R + 120 = 0
This quadratic equation yields R = 18 + 2*sqrt(51)
Now our answer = 18 + 2*sqrt(51) - 5 - 7 - 6 = 2*sqrt(51)
√(5+6+7)^2---4×5×6
