    You can use this method too.
    Make an ABFD square. And then look at triangle FBC, which is an equilateral triangle.
    After look FDC triangle it is isosceles triangle. Thats why FDC angle is 15 degree.
    Therefore x is 75 degrees.

    An interesting problem and a very nice solution.
    One more easier and simpler solution:
    Draw two lines from points B and D such that ABED is a square,.
    Contact points C and E.
    Now BCE is an isosceles triangle
    Where BC=BE=AB (sides of a square)
    Angle EBC=60 degree(150-90)
    So angleBCE= angleBEC=60 degree
    Now we know that BCE is an equilateral triangle
    SoEC=BC=DE। (sides of a square)
    Now CED is an isosceles triangle
    Angle DEC=150 degrees(90+60)
    So angleDCE=angle CDE=15 degrees
    Angle X= angle ADE- angleCDE
    90-15=75

    Once lines AC, CE and CF are drawn, and the simple angles and length CE have been established :-
    Tan 75 = AE/CE.
    AE = tan75 x CE = 3.732. (CE = 1).
    FC = AE.
    FD = 2 - 1 = 1.
    Triangle DFC.
    Tan X = 3.732 / 1.
    Arctan, X = 75.

    Really great explanation, although I’m curious to know why you didn’t stop at 5:09, as the line FC seems like a wasted step. Basically, once the distance from EC was proven to be half the length of AD then the triangle ACD must be isosceles, meaning angle DAC must equal angle x. Since we know angle DAC is 75 degrees then angle x must be 75 degrees… or am I missing something?

  • @robertlynch7520
    @robertlynch7520 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Almost exactly my reasoning. First was to connect AC. With both smaller legs (AB BC) being same length then, and 150° in ∠B, only (180 - 150) = 30° gets divided in 2 for the deep corner angles. Since ∠A is 90°, take away 15°, and the remainder is 75°
    Next extending B→E allows the △BEC to be recognized as a 30-60-90 △ I figured if the height EC was '1', then the 3 congruent angles were each '2'. Again, extending a horizontal line from AD→C establishes a 15-75-90△ with small side [1] The upper part, also goes to point C, and thus is congruent.
    Therefore ∠𝒙 must be 75°
    Nice.

    I'm an old land surveyor, and I'm not sure how, but after looking at this for a few seconds I somehow new the correct answer without the geometric calisthenics.
    This solution didn't rely solely on geometry though. Knowing that the sine of 30° is 0.5 is technically trigonometry.

    • @jeffreygreen7860
      @jeffreygreen7860 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depends upon how one defines sine and cosine. If using similar (right) triangles as a basis for them, then it's geometry. If using a unit circle at the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system, then it's trigonometry. In any case the two definitions are consistent with each other. Also sines and cosines are not necessary for showing that the side opposite the 30 degree angle of a right triangle is half the length of the hypotinuse, just geometry.

    A slightly different approach:
    r = a = radius from point B = AB = AD = BC = BG (= BE + EG) = AF = BF →
    r = a = radius from Point A → F = crossing point of the two circles → ∆ABF = equilateral triangle →
    EBC = θ = 30° → FAB = ABF = BFA = 2θ = 60° → DAF = 30° → ADF = AFD = x = 75° 🙂

      Btw:

      DF = k√(2 - √3) → cos⁡(x) = DR/k = sin⁡(θ/2) → x = 75°
      or: (DF)^2 = 2k^2(1 - cos⁡(θ)) = k^2 (2 - √3) → DF = k√(2 - √3)
      and:
      CBE = θ → CAB = BCA = θ/2 → DAC = x = 5θ/2 → AC = CD
      sin⁡(θ) = 1/2 → cos⁡(θ) = √3/2 → sin⁡(θ/2) = (1/2)√(2 - √3) = (k/2)AC →
      AC = DC = k√(2 - √3)(2 + √3) → (AC)^2 = k^2(2 + √3) →

    From the diagram, we have |AB| = |AC| = |AD| = 2 units. Then |DF| = |AF| = |CE| = 1 unit bec. AECF is a rectangle. Now
    |BE| = |BC|.sin(∠CBE) = 2.(√3)/2 = √3. So tan(∠ADC) = |FC|/|DF| = (|AB|+|BE|)/|DF| = 2+√3. So ∠ADC = tan⁻¹(2+√3) = 75°.
    Note tan(75°) = tan(45°+30°) = {tan(45°) + tan(30°)} / {1 - tan(45°).tan(30°) = {1+ 1/√3}/{1- 1.1/√3} = {√3 +1}/{√3 -1}
    = {√3 +1}.{√3 +1} / {3 -1} = (4+ 2√3)/2 = 2+√3. Trigonometry is king !

    This could be constructed by making a regular triangle ACE towards the D side. Then you find that angle DAE = 15 = angle BAC, hence triangle DAE is congruent to BAC by SAS. Then you get DE = BC = BA = DA. With CA = CE you get AE is symmetrical about CD. Hence angle ADC = angle ADE/2 = angle ABC /2 = 75 degree.

    This one cracks open easily once you find the trick. My solve process was roughly:
    1 - Triangle composed of ABC is given isosceles -> angle BAC = angle BCA = 15 degrees -> angle DAC = (90 - 15) = 75 degrees
    2 - The angle of vector BC relative to vector AD is necessarily -60 degrees -> BC projected along AD yields cos(60) = 0.5x of vector AD -> triangle CAD is also isosceles -> angle ADC = angle DAC = 75 degrees

    We now have 3 triangles
    rt∆BAD, rt∆BEC and ∆CBD
    Let's focus on
    rt∆BAD.
    Notice that it forms a 45-45-90 triangle.
    So, angle ADB= 45°
    Due to bisector BD
    angle CBD= 105°
    Now, let's focus on rt∆BEC.
    Since angles ABD, DBC, and EBC form a straight line.
    Angle EBC = 30°
    Thus forming a 30-60-90 angle
    So angle BCE = 60°.
    Now let's focus on the last triangle
    ∆CBD
    Since the sides AD, AB, and, BC are congruent, their corresponding angles are also congruent (ADB=ABD=BCD).
    So this makes angle BCD = 45°
    Now for the final step, let's continue focusing ∆CBD
    Let us add up all the angles formed.
    But first notice that segment BD also bisects ADB and BDC
    So angle BDC = x-45°
    We can now solve for x by using ∆BDC
    105+x-45+45= 180°
    x+105°= 180°
    x= 75°
    And this is our final answer.

      Why is that easier?. I looked at it, made an educated guess, and got the right answer. That was the easiest method of all.
      (I'm an old surveyor who did a lot of construction layout by "double-chaining," right triangles, so perhaps I had an unfair advantage.)
      Of course afterwards I sat there and stared at the diagram trying to figure out how to prove it.

      ​@@jhandle4196 If not easier, then that would be a faster technique for me, forming special right triangles namely 45-45-90 (Isosceles right triangle) and 30-60-90 (equilateral equiangular triangle with a central altitude forming 2 right triangles)

      It seems there is a much easier way.
      Draw a straight line perpendicular to AB from B and
      Draw a straight line from D perpendicular to AD, then
      If H is the intersection of the two lines, triangle ABC and triangle DHC are congruent.
      At this time, since the rectangle ABHD is a square, the angle of ADC is the angle of ADH minus the angle of CDH.
      Angle of ADH = 90°
      Angle of CDH = 1/2 (180°-150°) = 15°
      So 90° - 15° = 75°.

    Found arctan(2+sqrt(3)).
    Let E be a point of AD such the CE is perpendicular to AD. We have that angle BCE is 30°. Let's say that length of AD is 2. Then we have that length of AE = 2 * sin(30°) = 1, also length of CE = 2 + 2 * cos(30°) = 2 + sqrt(3). We can deduce the length of DE, which is one. By definition of tan, tan x = 2 + sqrt 3, so x = arctan(2 + sqrt(3))

    I drew a II segment starting from B going to CD where I Got a F point in this segment and drew an another segment starting from B direct to D
    This gave me a isosceles triangle ABD and a Isoceles triangle BFC
    Another segment was drew going from A to F, and AFB is equilateral triangle…
    Equilateral triangle has 60° each angle… so A point is now divided in 60° plus 30° and AF and AD has the same lenght so ADF is isoceles with A 30°… so 180 - 30 = 150… and 150 / 2 is 75°
    Am I right?

    I haven't done these problems for sixty years, so it took me quite a long time to manage a method. Not as simple as yours.
    1. Draw line AC. ABC is an isosceles triangle, so angle BAC is 15.
    2. Draw line DF, equal to line AD, inclined towards C. Make angle ADF 150.
    3. Draw line AF. ADF is an isosceles triangle, so angle DAF is 15.
    4. Angle CAF is 90 - (BAC15 + DAF15) = 60
    5. Draw line CF.
    6. CA and AF are equal, so CAF is an equilateral triangle .
    7. Therefore, CA =CF.
    8. CA = AF. AD = DF. CD is common.
    9. Therefore CAD and CFD are congruent.
    10. Therefore, angle ADC = CDF.
    11. Therefore ADC = half 150 = 75

    I disagree. Approximately at 3:00, you evaluate that Angle CBA is 30 Deg and Angle BCE is 60 Deg in the right angle triangle ECB. Therefore, the side BE (in front of 60 Deg angle) would be twice than the side EC (in front of the 60 Deg angle), AND NOT the Side BC, the hypotenuse in the right angle triangle. In fact the hypotenuse, BC, would be Square root of 5. Please correct me, if I am wrong!
