without elementary geometry about triangles.
, so it's nice to consider using symmetry to solve the problem.






because the graph is symmetric.

Humm I just noticed... I still have to prove that the center of the circle is on EI.
FUCK U
Short and sweet way of solving this question
Hi. Regarding to this question,I solve it by this way. I simply substituted my own values into one of the lengths of the triangle. Eg: AB=5 and I can easily solve the whole thing using just sine rule and cosine rule in less then 5 minutes.
hehe... a cheating way when
hehe... a cheating way when the original question asks not to use trigonometry...
Oops.
I see. I will try it again by just applying Euclidean Geometry.
Sines and Cosines?
Hello, I almost got it done but how do you solve it with sine and cosine? I am taking calculus now but I don't see how to solve with w/ sine and cosine as there is no length, only angles. If you could post a link to your scanned image of work or write it out here that would be great.
Thanks.
Assume 1, 10, or a for any
Assume 1, 10, or a for any of the sides of the triangle. Work the problem in terms of these assumed values. Once you know ratio of the sides of the right triangle you can find the angle using arctan, arcsin, arccosine operation.
I just had an
I just had an enlightenment.
For problems like this without any particular values. I should assume one instead of any variable.
1 reduce the amount of writing involved compare to assume it as a variable x.
