  • This was a fun question, I hope you guys love it.
    Does anybody read these descriptions? I think it would be funny if everybody who read this paragraph commented their favorite color and then their favorite animal. Then so many people in the comments would be confused cause there is no prompt in the video. :-)

      If we were in a situation where significant digits came into effect, we'd be ignoring the decimels anyway, and 21.25 rounds to 21.... so, close enough for engineering work :D

      It just isn't a circle, just drawn like one, the values are somewhat wrong as well, to make the problem look more beatifull. Nobody wants to see dirty square roots on his plate.

    You can actually see that r is slightly more than 21, so the final answer is most satisfying.

  • @paparmar

    Another way to arrive at x = 13/4: Use the intersecting chord theorem by filling out the rest of the circle and extending the 12 cm segment horizontally until it hits the circle’s left side (that will make the chord 12 + 9 + 21 long). Similarly, extend the 16 cm segment vertically to hit the circle’s bottom (chord length 16 + x + 16 + x). Then you have the relation:
    (12)(30) = (16) (16+2x), giving x = 13/4.

    • @shadowofdarkness3880
      @shadowofdarkness3880 Před 24 dny +1

      From there you can also use another formula to find the radius! The formula is x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + t^2 = 4r^2 with each letter representing a segment of intersecting chords, that was how i managed to get the answer. (Be aware that this formula can only be used if the chords are perpendicular to each other)

  • @sauravrao234

    It is best to do it with coordinate geometry as follows
    If the center of the circle is the assumed origin then the equation of the circle would be
    x^2 + y^2=r^2
    Point A which lies on the top end of the 16cm line has coordinates (9,16+k) where k is the clearance of the 16cm line from the ground and the point B on the circle which is the right end of the 12cm line has coordinates (21,k)
    We have two equations that correlates R and k. Solve and you are done

    Those values squared are 900 / 144 / 256 and 506,25
    Sum of which equals 1806,25
