this amazing geometry question on X the 00:02
end result is literally going to shock 00:06
you we have this big semicircle and 00:09
inside it we have two small semicircles 00:12
of diameter two and three and this 00:14
yellow one is tangent to the red 00:17
semicircle our job is to find the 00:20
diameter of the big 00:22
semicircle so can you solve it at first 00:24
glance if we pull this down here it 00:28
looks like the bigger diameter is simply 00:31
the sum of both of these diameters so 00:33
the answer we are looking for is five or 00:36
it will be approximately five but now 00:39
how to find out the exact value of this 00:42
diameter for that we will break this 00:44
diameter into smaller sections this this 00:46
and this one this piece right here is 00:50
the same as the radius of this 00:53
semicircle and thus it will be of length 00:55
one now to find the length of this part 00:58
first draw this radius and then join 01:01
both of these radi together this will be 01:04
1.5 and this will be 1 + 1.5 or 01:07
2.5 now we will use Pythagoras Theorem 01:12
to find the length of this part we can 01:15
do the math to find it and I have done 01:17
it for you in case you might want to 01:20
check but we have an easier method to 01:22
figure it out if we multiply the length 01:24
of both of these sides by two we get the 01:27
this as three and this is five and thus 01:29
we know that it is a three four five 01:33
Pythagorean triplets and therefore this 01:36
will be four or if we divide it by two 01:38
we get this side length as two excellent 01:41
next we will find the length of this 01:45
part and we are done let us label this 01:47
as y now here comes the magic this is 01:50
what I found the most intelligent way to 01:55
solve for this part complete this circle 01:57
now make a rectangle around it so the 02:01
length of this side of the rectangle 02:04
will be the same as the diameter of this 02:06
circle which will be three now extend 02:08
this line to the vertex of this 02:12
rectangle awesome now consider these two 02:14
triangles this angle is the same for 02:17
both these triangles and also since both 02:20
of these lines are parallel this angle 02:23
is also the same for both of them and 02:25
hence both these triangles are s similar 02:28
therefore this side which is 2 over this 02:31
side which is 1.5 equals this side which 02:34
is y + 2 over this side which is 3 cross 02:37
multiply to get this this becomes 6 over 02:42
1.5 or 4 = y + 2 or Y = 2 woohoo now is 02:46
the time for our final answer drums 02:55
rolling in and and it is 1 + 2 + 2 or 5 02:58
which is exactly the same as we 03:03
predicted at the beginning of this video 03:05
when we looked at this problem 03:08
visually isn't this cool if you liked 03:10
