Drunk drivers should be banned for life. Prove me wrong. Protip: You literally cannot

I paid a chink to take my math classes in college and havent touched that shit since. Whats wrong with the pic?

The shape is impossible with those proportions/measurements used.

Cringe.

Why?

because if you attempted to create a shape with those dimensions you would fail

12+16=28
28x5=140
140/2=70
why is that not correct?

You can still do the math though. It's 154.

Everyone in America can solve that, right?

or more specifically: if you attempted to create a shape with those dimensions that actually looked like that reference picture

Drunk drivers should not be banned for life, because it's possible for drunks to become sobers, and then their ability to drive could be a net benefit to society, enabling them to work and etc.

in america this would make living impossible

are you seriously unable to use the Pythagorean theorem?

Nope, banned for life sorry Wine-o

Hell no. Maybe when I took it but no one remembers that math shit as soon as class ends unless you need it for your job. I havent done math in years becauae its useless to me so why remember it unless I have financial incentive?

pythagorean doesnt work here

if you try to do 52+42 you should get 82 but you don't, so the actual measurements are fucked up

EZ. How much do I win?

Imagine it is a 2d object being viewed at an angle and I'm pretty sure it still works fine. Measure the square in the middle, 144 -- then measure the triangle on the side of it (16-12 = 4, divided by 2 = 2) so the triangle has an area of 5. Double that because there's two of them. 154.

Ya'll retarded.

What do you mean why? If its a paralellogram, it cannot have a height of 5 with those measurements. If you mean how, all my pictures are lost describing the actual math, but basically a triangle of side lengths 8, 5, 2 is impossible

if you are a drug abuser or an alcoholic you should turn in your license

NA math

A 2-5-8 right triangle is impossible.

There isn't a right angle symbol, it's a measurement of height that's all

I just drew one in crayons on my wall. Very possible.

The pythagorean theorem says that the hypotenuse is the sum of the sides of a right triangle where a^2+b^2=c and C has to be the longest side. I did the math and the side should be about 6.03 but the side is labeled as 8. You can do the work like that but the shape is impossible to draw using actual measurements.

NA math

Nah, I had to google pythogerean theorem. I have a college degree and a decent job but bone of that involves math so I gave no clue how to do anythibg beyond multiplication division and fractions. The vast vast majority of people are this way.

Forgot pic.

Cut off one triangle and move it to the other side - rectangle with 16x5 = 80.
Still the measurements would not work in the real world - the side triangles are rectangular but do not match the Pythagorean formula - lazy teacher.

Without the right angle its not a paralellogram

The proportions are literally wrong, that's the thing

The drawing is irrelevant to the math

Some one call up Pythagoras and let’s settle this once and for all.

I've driven drunk hundreds of times and never hit anyone, but then I'm white, and my IQ is off the charts, so I guess we're just better at this than inferior animals.

I don't get it, isn't the answer 70u^2?

Fuck it's actually 6.403, my bad.

No it's not. It's not a right triangle that's being depicted.

Its always the same
Someone posts a math problem which 8 year olds have to solve in school, and yet everyone always has a different result

>geometry
>drawing irrelevant
Fuck of and kill yourself

The shape is not wrong, it clearly exists right there on the paper. Some of the measurements are wrong.

Theres no indicator that the line of length 5 forms a right angle with the line 16. Its a shitty question because it requires you to infer that its a right angle which is not how real math is done.

Sorry - 14x5 = 70

They do this to kids all the time they tell them forget the picture and focus on the math and then give them stupid looking objects that are impossible but with math that is solvable to see who is retarded and can't follow a simple instruction.

if it's a measurement of height, it must be perpendicular to the base, meaning it is a right triangle.
In other words, if that's not a right triangle, the problem is unsolvable. And if it is a right triangle, the shape is impossible, and the problem is unsolvable.

Using the simplest method, you get 70 units^2.
Using the hypotenuse gives you a different answer.

For a paralellogram function to work it assumes the night is between sides that are PARALELL, so it would have right triangles, moron

You might not hit anyone, but someone might hit you. You'll be fucked dude. don't drive drunk. It's not worth it

sqrt(64-25)=sqrt(39)
16 - (sqrt(39)+12) = -2.245
gake and fay
fuck common core

>The height is needed to find the area of the rectangle in between the triangles
>The height isnt a straight line
>The height is something else
Wew kad
It's geometrically impossible to have a hypotenuse of exactly 8 for that shape, fuck off.

Jesus H people

Triangle ends if 2*5=10

10/2 for one side =5

So A for both ends is 10

A for center square is 12 *5 =60

60+10

A=70 for LD math

That was by design I think. I almost assumed the middle part was 12 by 12 because it looked like a square. It's supposed to make you pay closer attention.

Who gives a shit.
You can still use the standard formulas to solve it.

16 * 5 = 60

Are you Amerigoblins seriously unable to perform a simple calculation?

Attached: anime smug.png (570x562, 339K)

also its 70

Its not the image that is impossible, it is the given numbers

And if your argument is the test give info to ignore, that is different from it being impossible in the first place

I meant 16 * 5 = 90

Attached: feel crumbling.gif (480x480, 3.07M)

the 4 should be 2

The dotted line isn't height.

ok fine

80

Failure for ignoring information given

One could wage a 30 years war of anecdotes for and against this argument. I am inclined to agree with it.

For openers, we take these one-off cases of assholes who blow a 0.27 taking on a family of five coming back from vacation or a church choir van to pass increasingly draconian laws that affect who - people who routinely get behind the wheel blowing a 0.27? No. It's the schlub who has a couple cold ones after work and happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and makes some move that gets a cop's attention, but is otherwise no more a threat on the road than your standard phone addict or braindead female or Somali.

Now this guy is out ten grand, can't get insurance anymore and has to go to mandatory indoctrinations and pay for utterly unnecessary shit - oh, and do at least day in jail in most US jurisdictions.

The problem isn't drunk drivers - it's drunks who are drivers. They don't drink and drive, they drive, period. Our laws and policies are set up to remedy the damage they do only after there is a body count. Why? Because policies that prevent such accidents in the first place also reduce the $10K charlies that pour money into government and select private coffers every time cops make a criminal out of a perfectly law abiding, taxpaying citizen.

Then no formula will work moron

> HURR DURR EVERY MEASUREMENT IS ALWAYS CORRECT

Litteral retard. Maybe I measured every given measurement, decided which ones were self-consistant with each other, and determined that the 5 and the 12 lengths were incorrectly labeled, but I guess you are too much of a retard to understand that sometimes in life, things are going to be incorrect and you need to have the ability to decide what is right and wrong so you can move forward.

TLDR, you are a retarded faggot.

The short side of the triangle should be two, not four.
Side lengths are 2, 5, 8 and there's no actual way to use them in a triangle because 2 + 5 can't reach 8

(Not to scale)

What the fuck is pronoun culture

Oh fuck me in the ass, the base of the triangle gets cut in 2 when you attach it to the other side, so it's

14 * 5 = 70

Why defend common core?
Its garbage and ignoring numbers and geometry on a geometry test is fucking retarded

>Albanian mathematics

Im not, im just here measureing pixels.

All the information is given. You rain man fucks want to make things more difficult than it needs to be. All dimensions are there.

there is right triangle with sides 2, 5, and 8. simple application of pythagorean theorem: 4+25=/=64

it's 80 btw. not sure why faggots keep saying 70
there's.. another triangle on the other side, if that's how they want to break it down; so- 12*5 + (4*5)/2 + (4*5)/2

i have made a grave error. it is indeed 2((2*5)/2)
or 70
wew fun times

This is correct. They fucked up the measurements but for 3rd grade math it will serve its purposes. There are far better examples of common core being jacked up than this

The only reasonable poster itt. They do that here too, to test for abstract thought, the picture is only supposed to be a general guide.

Funny thing is you can form a triangle of 2, 5, 8 using herons formula, it just produces areas of imaginary numbers. So there is an actual answer, assuming all given info is true, its just insane and not a formula that is taught, and it sure as he'll ain't 70

Then why do you get to ignore some?

i got 70 too

Draw that triangle to scale nigger

this
where the fuck are you getting 4?

You can probably do it in non-Euclidean space as well

imagine being this brainlet. jews did this to us.

the values are fucked so it doesn't really make any sense.

2*5=10
5*12=60
60+10=70

A = 70

Come on burgers.

Yes, but I was assuming Euclidean, and herons formula is Euclidean

Now do it without the 5

You're absolutely right OP. My entire life was destroyed at the tender age of 21 by a drunk driver. He never even apologized.
