For the same reason that the left one is a right triangle, the right one it not. It looks that way, but there's not geometric proof. Get it?
>>
>>716267115
You would have to assume the the intersecting lines are truly straight. They may not be, and then the distribution of angles will be lopsided.
>>
>>716267525
If they are not straight then there is no point then.

Obviously the intersecting lines are straight. If they aren't, the puzzle is impossible to solve.

>>716267786
Yea that's what I thought
>>
>>716265505
How the hell did you determine the 50/80 and 100/x side?

I got everything else but there's no way to determine the rest.
>>
But if the lines are straight, there is no need to figure out the intersection at all.

You can do it with just the larger triangles.

My attempt...
>>
>>716267432
It doesn't say to find the value, just to find x.
>>
>>716268041
A straight line is 180 deg, so to speak. If the point of a triangle touches it, the sum of those angles will be 180.

There is a way, it's just difficult. No one in this thread has demonstrated a way that works yet, though.

>>716268141
How did you determine 60 &100? I don't see how you can determine the angle of the line with no information?
>>
>>716268224
So it could be anything who adds up to 130 and not specifically 50/80
>>
>>716269187
for example this anon choose 60/70 instead of 50/80 and he gets a different result
>>
>>716264168
>>716264168
>>716265505
>>716265505

exactly all triangles = 180 degree's not hard to work backwards from that
>>
>>716268541
he's wrong, it should be 50 and 110

>>716269351
Knowing that the internal angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees is not enough to find x.

I don't think there is a single solution

you can get from here >>716269805 these equation : ( and i don't think i've missed some)


180=y+(x+40)+30
180=x+(50+y)+20

180=x+y+70
180=20+z+t

180=50+y+z
180=x+40+t

and when combined it boils down to :


x+y=110
z+t=160
y+z=130
x+t=140


which has multiple solution
>>
>>716269805
40 + X + C = 180
A + B + 50 = 180
70 + B + X = 180
All equations have two unknowns

>>716269476
Yes it is, you can 100% solve this with only that knowlege.

>>716270065
you can add the top triangle and the inner triangle as i did there but it doesn't help you

>>716270065
OHHHHH!!!!!
(A+B) + 20 + (50 + 30) = 180
>>
>>716268224
>A straight line is 180 deg

I know that but there should be no way to get the 80/50 or 110/x after getting everything else first.

I assume you guessed the 50/80 and 110/x.

>>
>>716270316
It work with all value of X who doesn't generate negative value of y,z,t in this set of equation.


x+y=110
z+t=160
y+z=130
x+t=140

( or :

y=110-x
z=x+20
t=140-x

because "y+z=130" is redundant with the 2 first line.

So there is only 3 equation and 4 unknown

>>716269805

try solving them you'll see that some of them are redundant. I've found 6 equation here : >>716270038
but when you work on them you see that it boils down to only 3


All these solution for example would work

x= 10 and y = 100 z = 30 t = 130

x= 20 and y = 90 z =40 t = 120 etc...

dude, no. There's a much much wider range since we don't have enough facts.

for example

x = 1, b=109, a=21, c=139
x = 2, b=108, a=22, c=138
And so forth.
This is for the pic in >>716269805

There's no real answer because we don't have enough info.

There is obviously enough info and a real answer to the puzzle. You just haven't incorporated all the available info into your equations.
>>
>>716265505
Same result. Took me a while bc I was solving writing on a bag.
>>
>>716271188
it was an example.

As i said any value of x is an answer as long as it doesn't generate value of y,z, and t that are negative based on this set of 3 equation :

y=110-x
z=x+20
t=140-x
>>
>>716271263
No anon. Once you figured out the rest, those four are all that's left over that you cannot figure out.

Take a good look at it again and see for yourself. a,b,c and x are unsolveable.
>>
>>716271430
They are unsolvable from the equations posted. They are not unsolvable from the original puzzle, you just have to go about solving it in a different way.

>>716271188
Use trigonometry instead you useless piece of shit

>>716270038
Couldn't you use these equations at the bottom to substitute and swap around, find values for X,y,t, and z?

no because when you do so you see that these equation are redundant

>>716271559

>>716271402
in that sense yes you are right, it's anything within that certain range, tho it's a really wide range.

There's really no concrete way of figuring out the exact numbers. All we got are ranges of possible solutions.

Anyone who thinks there's one absolute solution to this is a fucking idiot.

Obviously not, finding out a way to solve it that works is the whole challenge of this puzzle. You can straightforwardly use the laws of sines and cosines to figure it out, but it can also be solved purely with elementary methods, though finding that solution is quite difficult.
>>
>>716271925
how do you infer that the small triangle is isosceles from knowing the big one is ?

>>716271919
>And what way is that? Guessing games until you find one that works?

You could use Trigonometry to figure out the sides, which would let you figure out the angle.
>>

>>716272334
stop being baited by him you dumbass.
>>
Never learned trig. But, If you make an assumption about the length of a side, calculate all the other lengths, and then find the angle, would that angle be the same regardless of what you initial assumption was?
>>
>>716272325
Yes you can, you just need to set a length for one side.
>>
>>716271925
Top is 20, not 40.

The biggest, outer triangle is:
> (20 + 60) + (50 + 30) + X = 180
> (80) + (80) + X = 180
> 160 + X = 180
> X = 20

Recalc your work accordingly.
>>
>>716265679
are you fucking retarded? A triangle adds up to 180, a square adds up to 360.
>>
>>716272413
except you'll end up with length expressed as a variable of x and W ( where W is the "assumption" you've made about one length), and that in the end you'll end up having a circular equation like x+w= x + w
>>
>>716265894
we're talking about triangles here, anon.
>>
>>716272413
I.e the unknown angles are all constrained by the lengths of the two long intersecting lines. It's those lengths that are missing.

>>
>>716272704
Are you retarded? You can set one of the lengths in the figure to whatever you want, the angles don't change.
>>
>>716272786
that's true, and yet, that's precisely a proof that adding a single length won't give you any more info, and won't make you closer to the answer.

>>716272238

>>
Right, if it is the case that the small triangle, is isoscelean, then we know the angle b and the whole thing collapses.
And that can be solved using an assumed side length. So, it can be solved in the particular case of that being an isosceles triangle.

that's a big IF.

That's false.
there are 4 unknowns,
and you can make 4 independent linear equations using 4 triangles that include combinations of x, a, b, c.

x+b =110
b+a =130
x +c=140
a+c=160

solving this set of linear equations, we get
53.234=x
56.766=b
73.234=a
86.766=c

Not that poster. But the outer boundary is bisected by another line. You know the 80 above the brown angle, because it was set at the same angle as the original larger version (80). So the brown angle and the angle on the other side must equal 180. 180 - 80 = 100 (brown angle).
