@@TibRibno, it's high school geometry with a creative twist. I'm a high school math teacher who has taught geometry. These problems require a bit of creativity (adding auxiliary lines and a semicircle) and then applying the theorems learned in h.s geometry (not middle school). I gave these kind of problems to my Honors Geometry classes as extra credit. Of course, I would teach similar problems in class. The exact creative problems I taught were on the exams, but not as extra credit. I didn't bother teaching problems Luke this in my general (non honors) because I knew I would end up losing their attention. They had enough of a challenge just learning new geometry concepts not learned on middle school.
The great/frustrating thing about geometry is, if you can't think of a clever solution, you can always just turn it into a bunch of vector equations and solve it that way. It won't be as elegant as the easier "intended" solution, but not all real world problems have an easy solutions, so in some cases, you're better off just not trying to look for an elegant way to do it, and just plugging everything into vectors. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ In this case, you'd do that by solving the position of the bottom most corner (C), and the two corners that intersect the circumference (A and B). C•ĵ=0, |B-C|²=4|A-C|², |A|²=|B|²=1, then when you find all 3, just compute ((A-C)×(B-C))•k, or just 2|A-C|², or just |B-C|²/4. Still, I like your method better. :)
That's not a great/frustrating thing about geometry. Because it is NOT a thing about geometry. We translate things from geometry to algebra, and from algebra to geometry. But simple things can get very complicated.
@@barisdogru6437 Geometry is NOT the study of life. That would be Biology. And even if Geometry was the study of life, this wouldn't imply there are easy and hard ways to the same solution. That's just a conjecture.
Cool! I've done about 10 of these now and it's a blast having all of this coming back to me. I've only figured out 2 of them, but I'm 67, so I'm feeling a bit cocky. I'm pretty sure I've already figured out a way to save 10 minutes of time mowing my yard more efficiently. I'm finally taking control of my life with Mathematics. I was beginning to lose hope. Thanks for the videos!
Very cool problem! I did it with coordinate geometry. Three of the corners of the rectangle are at (-s,s), (0,s), and (s,0). The circle has equation (x-h)² + (y-k)² = 25 and goes through the three listed points. Therefore you get three equations with three unknowns: (s-h)² + k² = 25 (s+h)² + (s-k)² = 25 h² + (s-k)² = 25 These are easy to solve by elimination. You get s = √10, and so area = 20.
I used coordinates as well. And I even have solved the task just in mind. Now I'm writing that my solution: I placed coordinates another way. These were (0;0), (-1;0) (1;1). So I selected a 1 to be "x" of the task. Having (a,b) as a circle center, that leads to: a^2 + b^2 =rr (a+1)^2 +b^2 =r^2 (a-1)^2 +(b-1)=r^2 The first and the second give a=-0.5 After using of "a" in the first and third equation, that leads to: 2.25 + (b-1)^2 = 0.25 + bb 2 -2b +1=0, b=1.5 So r=√2.5 But in task's units, the radius is equal to 5. So here's a proportion x/1 = 5/√2.5. x=5/5√0.1=5√0.1/0.5=10√0.1=√10
Lovely solution. I approached it by drawing a coordinate system aligned with the rectangle. I gave the rectangle's vertices the coordinates (0,0), (0,2a), (4a,2a), and (4a,0). We know that the circle passes through (0,2a), (2a,2a), and (4a,0). The first two of these have perpendicular bisector x=a, while the last two of these have perpendicular bisector x-y=2a. These lines meet at (a,-a), which must therefore be the center of the circle. Now pick any of the three points of contact; its distance from that center is a*sqrt(10) by the Pythagorean Theorem, which must match the radius of 5. Therefore 10a^2=25, so 2a^2=5, so 8a^2=20. That's the area.
Found it in an easier way by finding the slant of the rectangle then define 1 smaller edge as x. Then you can pass a line equal to x in the middle of the rectangle cutting it into 2 squares then you will see a right triangle with x, x/2 and 5sqrt(2)/2. Then use Pythagorean theorem: x^2 + (x/2)^2 = (5sqrt(2)/2)^2 => x^2 = 10 Area = x*(x+x) = x*2x = 2x^2 = 2*10 = 20 This is briefly explained so sorry if it’s unclear what I did.
1:36 thank you for not losing me there. I'm not smart, but I love to learn to some degree. It really keeps my attention when you make every explanation visible and not imaginative. Thank you sir, I wish I had you as my math teacher.
I struggled with this a bit until I realized that the 3 points of contact with the circle define it, and thus its radius. That the lower left corner is coincident with the diameter chord is irrelevant and a distraction and doesn't affect the answer. I plotted the 3 points on the x-y plane at (-x, x), (0, x), and (x,0) and solved the simultaneous equations for the radius r. With r=5, the area 2x^2 is then 20.
I was an honors math student (including geometry) back in the 1970's. For the life of me I don't ever recall learning the subtended angle on a circle thing. Ever. Head exploded. How exciting.
This is my solution: If we extend the longer sides of the rectangle, the intersection points with the circle create 2 parallel cords with lengths which can be shown to be x and 3x and distance between them x. For a cord we have that (c/2)^2+h^2=r^2, where c is the length of the cord, h is the distance from the center of the circle and r is the radius. So for our 2 cords we get that (x/2)^2+(h+x)^2=r^2 and (3x/2)^2+h^2=r^2, from where we find that h=x/2 and the area of the rectangle A=2x^2=(4/5)r^2 therefore A=20 if r=5.
There is an easier solution for this, draw the diagonal line in the rectangle, connect r on both end of the diagonal line, draw a perpendicular line on the diagonal line (it must be at the exact half of the diagonal line, since both end = r), then you can calculate 1/2 diagonal line = 5 * cos(45) And it's straight forward from here EDIT: the diagonal line in my reply = the green line in video
*I came up with a different answer...* As presented, the angle underneath the right side of the rectangle could be 0°. Since the angle beneath that side of the rectangle is not specified, I will assume that it is 0° (between the base of the rectangle and the base of the semicircle.) If I set the origin at the right end of the base of the semicircle, and, using polar coordinates, along with choosing to set the direction of positive "sweep" as clockwise, I can plot the polar equation... 10 cos θ ...to draw the entire semicircle, with θ going from 0° to 180°. I then want to find the angle θ at which point the following equation becomes true... 2 sin θ = cos θ . The following algebraic manipulations... ( sin θ / cos θ ) = 0.5 tan θ = 0.5 θ = tan⁻¹ (0.5) θ = 26.565051° ...reveal that... 2 sin θ = cos θ WHEN θ = 26.565051°. The sides of the rectangle are then given by... base = 10 cos θ base = 10 cos 26.565051° base = 8.944272 ...and... height = 10 sin θ height = 10 sin 26.565051° height = 4.472136 . Multiplying base times height gives the area of the blue rectangle, which is... base × height = ? 8.944272 × 4.472136 = 40 . So the *area of the blue rectangle is 40 .*
There's a simpler way to do this without using all the complicated angle theorems. By symmetry you can extend the top right side of the rectangle down to create another chord of length x. You can then draw lines out from the centre of the circle that intersect each chord at right angles. This constructs a square with side length (3/2)x. Then we can create a right angle triangle with sides (3/2)x, (1/2)x and the radius (5) as the hypotenuse. Solving using Pythagoras' theorem gives x = sqrt(10). Hence the rectangular area is 20.

Again, this problem can be solved more easily with coordinate geometry. Choose the coordinate system such that its origin is at marked corner of the rectangle and the x and y axes contain the long and short edges of it respectively. Now we can write 3 equations describing the points that lie on the circle. Those points have the coordinates: (0,x), (x,x) and (2x,0). Lets denote the center of the circle as (u,v), then the system of equations is: u²+(x-v)² = r² (x-u)²+(x-v)² = r² (2x-u)²+v² = r². Solve it for x,u,v (r=10 is known): u = -v = r√10/10 x = r√10/20. From this, the blue area is: A = 2x² = r²/5 = 20.
@@pixtane7427 Central/inscribed angles come way later than 7-8th grade. It's taught in 10th grade (for 15-16yrs old students) at least in my country. But you are right in the sense that coordinate geometry is usually taught even later.
Divide the rectangle in two blue squares with sides s. Each square has a symmetry line that goes through the center of the circle. (1/2*s)^2 + (3/2*s)^2 = 5^2 , so s^2 = 10 and the rectangle's area = 20.
Hi Andy My guess is that you never did much technical drawing in high school? There is a geometric way which is much shorter and only involves the Pythag theorum. Consider the three points on the circumference. (The corner of the rectangle located on the diametral chord is just a magician's distraction as the diamertral chord can be drawn anywhere.) For some, it may be less confusing just to delete the diametral chord and draw the full circle and reorientate the rectangle so that the long side is horizontal. From geometry the center of any circle lies on the perpendicular bisector of any chord. Let the short side of the rectangle be X and the long side 2X. If these bisectors are drawn the angles and lengths are simple as they are all 45 degrees. From observation the centre of the circle lies X/2 past the rectangle's long side along to the intersection of the two perpendicular disectors. From here, use Pythag to calculate the radius in terms of X. The problem just falls out after that. Cheers
solve it better connect the diagonal of the rectangle and let it =y then y^2=5x^2 then y=x*radical 5 now connect the points of intersection of the diagonals of the rect with the semi circle to the radius to form a right triangle then y^2=5^2+5^2 then y=5*radiacl 2 substitute in initial eq then x=radical 10 now area of rect =x*2x=2*10=20 u^2
I feel like these videos should be available for TH-cam kids but personally also want the comments for these videos. So maybe it could be a great idea for Andy to make a separate channel for TH-cam kids but upload the same videos
I got the right answer by finding the chord length of the diagonal of the rectangle, which is equal to 2*radius *(sin c/2), where c equal the subtended angle from the center of the circle, which is 90 degrees. *5* sin. 45= 7.07107. The short side and long side are in a ratio of 1:2. Inverse tan 1/2. = 26.565 degrees, so sin 26.565. * 7.07107= 3.16228 and cos 26.565 * 7.07107 = 6.32456. 3.16228* 6.32456= 20

This is my solution: If we extend the longer sides of the rectangle, the intersection points with the circle create 2 parallel cords with lengths which can be shown to be x and 3x and distance between them x. For a cord we have that (c/2)^2+h^2=r^2, where c is the length of the cord, h is the distance from the center of the circle and r is the radius. So for our 2 cords we get that (x/2)^2+(h+x)^2=r^2 and (3x/2)^2+h^2=r^2, from where we find that h=x/2 and the area of the rectangle A=2x^2=(4/5)r^2 therefore A=20 if r=5.

As presented, the angle underneath the right side of the rectangle could be 0°. Since the angle beneath that side of the rectangle is not specified, I will assume that it is 0° (between the base of the rectangle and the base of the semicircle.) If I set the origin at the right end of the base of the semicircle, and, using polar coordinates, along with choosing to set the direction of positive "sweep" as clockwise, I can plot the polar equation...
10 cos θ
...to draw the entire semicircle, with θ going from 0° to 180°. I then want to find the angle θ at which point the following equation becomes true...
2 sin θ = cos θ .
The following algebraic manipulations...
( sin θ / cos θ ) = 0.5
tan θ = 0.5
θ = tan⁻¹ (0.5)
θ = 26.565051°
...reveal that...
2 sin θ = cos θ WHEN θ = 26.565051°.
The sides of the rectangle are then given by...
base = 10 cos θ
base = 10 cos 26.565051°
base = 8.944272
...and...
height = 10 sin θ
height = 10 sin 26.565051°
height = 4.472136 .
Multiplying base times height gives the area of the blue rectangle, which is...
base × height = ?
8.944272 × 4.472136 = 40 .
So the *area of the blue rectangle is 40 .*

There's a simpler way to do this without using all the complicated angle theorems.
By symmetry you can extend the top right side of the rectangle down to create another chord of length x. You can then draw lines out from the centre of the circle that intersect each chord at right angles. This constructs a square with side length (3/2)x. Then we can create a right angle triangle with sides (3/2)x, (1/2)x and the radius (5) as the hypotenuse. Solving using Pythagoras' theorem gives x = sqrt(10). Hence the rectangular area is 20.

Youre making me like maths again
I wish my maths teachers were like you bro.
Thank you very much for the explanation, I didn't know how to do it, but thanks to you I even understand it now 😀
Once you know the properties, solving math problems is just like solving Sudoku but more creatively.
What is ur process of thought when you are approaching these types of problems?
Step 1: ask "how do I solve this?"
Step 2: solve the exercise.
Hahahahahahaha.
Excellent explanation. I hope you're a math teacher.
Again, this problem can be solved more easily with coordinate geometry. Choose the coordinate system such that its origin is at marked corner of the rectangle and the x and y axes contain the long and short edges of it respectively. Now we can write 3 equations describing the points that lie on the circle. Those points have the coordinates: (0,x), (x,x) and (2x,0). Lets denote the center of the circle as (u,v), then the system of equations is:
u²+(x-v)² = r²
(x-u)²+(x-v)² = r²
(2x-u)²+v² = r².
Solve it for x,u,v (r=10 is known):
u = -v = r√10/10
x = r√10/20.
From this, the blue area is:
A = 2x² = r²/5 = 20.
He used concepts from like 7-8 grade. I think it is easier for everybody to understand, even if it is not the most efficient way
@@pixtane7427 Central/inscribed angles come way later than 7-8th grade. It's taught in 10th grade (for 15-16yrs old students) at least in my country. But you are right in the sense that coordinate geometry is usually taught even later.
I still don't see how I was supposed to "guess" this solution. It's like finding a route in a maze where the walls aren't visible.
Do you have a definitions video? Getting lost on the terms, but the steps are immaculate!
Divide the rectangle in two blue squares with sides s.
Each square has a symmetry line that goes through the center of the circle.
(1/2*s)^2 + (3/2*s)^2 = 5^2 , so s^2 = 10 and the rectangle's area = 20.
Math is so interesting when i dont need to learn it
I wish you were available when I was at school
Hi Andy My guess is that you never did much technical drawing in high school? There is a geometric way which is much shorter and only involves the Pythag theorum. Consider the three points on the circumference. (The corner of the rectangle located on the diametral chord is just a magician's distraction as the diamertral chord can be drawn anywhere.) For some, it may be less confusing just to delete the diametral chord and draw the full circle and reorientate the rectangle so that the long side is horizontal. From geometry the center of any circle lies on the perpendicular bisector of any chord. Let the short side of the rectangle be X and the long side 2X. If these bisectors are drawn the angles and lengths are simple as they are all 45 degrees. From observation the centre of the circle lies X/2 past the rectangle's long side along to the intersection of the two perpendicular disectors. From here, use Pythag to calculate the radius in terms of X. The problem just falls out after that. Cheers
This looks like a fun one...*insert video*...how exciting.
Then the math teacher is like: You need to prove the rules/formulas you have used.
solve it better connect the diagonal of the rectangle and let it =y then y^2=5x^2 then y=x*radical 5 now connect the points of intersection of the diagonals of the rect with the semi circle to the radius to form a right triangle then y^2=5^2+5^2 then y=5*radiacl 2 substitute in initial eq then x=radical 10 now area of rect =x*2x=2*10=20 u^2
Quick satisfying and digestible. Love it. Got a new sub!
I feel like these videos should be available for TH-cam kids but personally also want the comments for these videos. So maybe it could be a great idea for Andy to make a separate channel for TH-cam kids but upload the same videos
Anyone can access TH-cam including kids. Why separate? It's good for anyone who wants to brush up on geometry and learn to be mire creative with it.
As a fingerpainter, i can confirm that this guy knows what hes talking about
very interesting how you solve these. no wonder I only scraped by math.
at the end you could've split the rectangle into two squares and each one is x^2, which would make it so you didn't have to do square roots
I got the right answer by finding the chord length of the diagonal of the rectangle, which is equal to 2*radius *(sin c/2), where c equal the subtended angle from the center of the circle, which is 90 degrees. *5* sin. 45= 7.07107. The short side and long side are in a ratio of 1:2. Inverse tan 1/2. = 26.565 degrees, so sin 26.565. * 7.07107= 3.16228 and cos 26.565 * 7.07107 = 6.32456. 3.16228* 6.32456= 20
I must have missed every inscribed angles lecture till now lol
Love the videos man.
