Riddle 4

Two persons each of them has pens . one of them ask the another about the number of pens he has
He answer : " if you add a pen from your pens , the number of our pens will be equal " .
The another person said : "If you give me a pen from you , then my pens will be double what you have .
So how many pens each one has ?!?!?!

Riddle 3

123 - 169 = 0 , this operation is false , but if you move one number it will be true .
How that will done ???

Riddle 2

What is the number that divisible each of the following numbers 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 & 6
such that the remainder in each time will be 1 !!!!

Riddle 1

You have the numbers : 2 , 4 , 6 & 8 .
How will you make an operation using the signs : + , - , * & / 
such that no repetition for any number , to has the result 25 ?

Pythagorean Relation Proved

Over 2000 years ago there was an amazing discovery about triangles:

When a triangle has a right angle (90°) ...

... and squares are made on each of the three sides, ...

... then the biggest square has the exact same area as the other two squares put together!

It is called "Pythagoras' Theorem" and can be written in one short equation:

a² + b² = c²

Note:

• c is the longest side of the triangle
• a and b are the other two sides

Definition:

The longest side of the triangle is called the "hypotenuse", so the formal definition is:

In a right angled triangle:
the square of the hypotenuse is equal to
the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

Sure ... ?

Let's see if it really works using an example.

Example: A "3,4,5" triangle has a right angle in it.

Let's check if the areas are the same: 32 + 42 = 52 Calculating this becomes: 9 + 16 = 25 It works ... like Magic!

Why Is This Useful?

If we know the lengths of two sides of a right angled triangle, we can find the length of the third side. (But remember it only works on right angled triangles!)

How Do I Use it?

Write it down as an equation:

a2 + b2 = c2

Now you can use algebra to find any missing value, as in the following examples:

Example: Solve this triangle.

a2 + b2 = c2 52 + 122 = c2 25 + 144 = c2 169 = c2 c2 = 169 c = √169 c = 13

You can also read about Squares and Square Roots to find out why √169 = 13

Example: Solve this triangle.

a2 + b2 = c2 92 + b2 = 152 81 + b2 = 225 Take 81 from both sides: b2 = 144 b = √144 b = 12

Example: What is the diagonal distance across a square of size 1?

a2 + b2 = c2 12 + 12 = c2 1 + 1 = c2 2 = c2 c2 = 2 c = √2 = 1.4142...

It works the other way around, too: when the three sides of a triangle make a² + b² = c², then the triangle is right angled.

Example: Does this triangle have a Right Angle?

Does a2 + b2 = c2 ? a2 + b2 = 102 + 242 = 100 + 576 = 676 c2 = 262 = 676 They are equal, so ... Yes, it does have a Right Angle!

Example: Does an 8, 15, 16 triangle have a Right Angle?

Does 8² + 15² = 16² ?

• 8² + 15² = 64 + 225 = 289,
• but 16² = 256

So, NO, it does not have a Right Angle

Example: Does this triangle have a Right Angle?

Does a2 + b2 = c2 ? Does (√3)2 + (√5)2 = (√8)2 ? Does 3 + 5 = 8 ? Yes, it does! So this is a right-angled triangle

And You Can Prove The Theorem Yourself !

Get paper pen and scissors, then using the following animation as a guide:

• Draw a right angled triangle on the paper, leaving plenty of space.
• Draw a square along the hypotenuse (the longest side)
• Draw the same sized square on the other side of the hypotenuse
• Draw lines as shown on the animation, like this:
• 
• Cut out the shapes
• Arrange them so that you can prove that the big square has the same area as the two squares on the other sides.

Another, Amazingly Simple, Proof

Here is one of the oldest proofs that the square on the long side has the same area as the other squares.
Watch the animation, and pay attention when the triangles start sliding around.
You may want to watch the animation a few times to understand what is happening.
The purple triangle is the important one.

Multiplication tables

     Many people think that mathematics is solving problem; however, it is nothing but FUN...

    Since childhood, we were drawing things without knowing what we were drawing, like buildings, ships, planes, flags...etc

    At first, we were thinking that mathematics was geometry, numbers, operations, relations and functions, but when we started the university, we found that mathematics is a field itself, where you can find different things and branches, e.g. our known algebra was divided into pure algebra and pure calculus. Also, geometry was divided into Euclidean space "n-dimensions" and differential geometry and some others.

    On the other hand, there was many things that we were having fun when reading or seeing it in our text books or while searching for information on the Web. Things made us think deeply about its contents; one of these things were the numerical tricks. One of these things is the multiplication table of 9, which most students see it the most difficult one.

       Other than this one, you can get the multiplication table of 9 using the ten fingers of your hand, and here the video for it in case you want to teach it to your kids.

      And here are the multiplication tables for 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 multiplied by themselves using both your hands.

         Hope you have fun reading and trying the things in the videos..
