Agree. I propose another way to understand this math problem: - A lot of people apply the triangle area fomula for the two shapes (the two big shapes that contain smaller ones). As a result, they have the same area because ostensibly both are right triangles with equal sides. - This is the main reason why this is such a paradox: they seem equal but different at the same time. If you look closely, only the upper shape ( the shape that contains other 4 smaller ones) is really a triangle. The lower one is not a triangle so you can not apply triangle area formula for it. - To calculate the lower one's area, you should combine all 4 smaller ones' areas plus 1 square. There you go, it is solved.

This is a pretty elementary problem with a verysimple explanation, and you asked your teacher-maths teacher I presume with at least a degree in mathematics-and they didn't even attempt to explain it to you? Are you sure you're not making that up?

Yes this is really confusing one, because all the part in the triangle above are in the same size as they are in the triangle below and so its really confusing, that one part is missing, while they are in the same sizes as they were in the one above and so it should be impossible.

@@jout738 how should it be impossible? Compare the top grids above both triangles top lines and they don’t match at all. Obvious differences. This trick was done on a chocolate bar too to better visualize.

@@danielvelkovski3156 I think the chocolate bar one actually did result in a different shape to produce the illusion. Here all of the points of each triangle are precisely on the grid and the grid is the same. It's clever because it makes us assume the large shape is a triangle when it isn't, but the shapes still do land on each regular grid line. At least that's how I understand this illusion.

Yes he was most excellent, was he not? Very passionate! The best two math teachers I ever had were passionate in this exact demeanor during my sophomore (Geometry) and junior (?) yrs. Interestingly, I had the polar opposite experience freshman and Senior year with two old farts. Freshman yr was Algebra II taught buy a Vietnam veteran who had flashbacks. I think Senior Year may have been Trig but I failed both Algebra 2 and trig pretty miserably if the requirement was actually retaining any mathematical information from those years. I maybe earned a "D"or "C" at best. Anyways I'm pretty pathetic at math, takes me a while to pick it up. Made A's in every other class and graduated with a 3.6. So this is basically an optical illusion because the angle of one of these triangles does not make it a true (right angle) triangle? Which one is not the real triangle..the top?

Agreed. This kind of teaching is what makes learning subjects that are fairly seen as a complex topic by many, not feel boring and confusing. The back and forth interaction also matters. I personally preferred this method as I struggled so much if I learn with only one of the methods. I really can't if I only have to choose between visual or audio. I need both of them.

This explanation is pretty complicated tho here's my version The hypotenuse of blue triangle is √(5²+2²) which is ≈5.3851 Now the hypotenuse of red triangle is √(8²+3²) which is ≈8.5440 Adding both we get ≈13.9291 Now, onto the hypotenuse of the big 'triangle' which is ≈13.9283 Meaning the hypotenuses of the smaller triangles don't add up to the hypotenuse of the big 'triangle' meaning something is wrong here And because both small triangles are not similar meaning both of them combined wouldn't make a triangle hence the big 'triangle is a fake

Projector didn't time out. He just has his computer set(by default) to go to sleep after x minutes without input. Hence why it says no signal and to provide input from the source because the computer went to sleep and thus stopped sending a signal to conserve power.

I feel like it'd be hard to have this kind of energy every day, especially when half your students don't care. "When are we going to need this" etc.

Because the school system we use pretty much everywhere is fundamentally broken and not conducive to encouraging curiosity and independent learning of topics which interest the students, thus crushing the spirits of teachers and students alike.

@@Soumein i feel like it's esp hard in math too. in science or history if you teach interestingly you can get your students to care, but a lot of kids won't care abt math no matter what

It's due to them following a system. Teachers can actually do their best to educate their students, it's just they gotta have to follow the school systems which I find sad. Most fun teachers usually implement themselves and their personality to their subject which makes it interesting, but sometimes the system prevents them from doing things which actually would make the subject more interesting.

Passion goes a long way

I'm 30 and haven't been to class for a while. Sat down and watched this whole thing with fascination. Taught me something new today

Too many know it all- teachers and very few talented communicators and passionate teachers. Teaching should be made very hard to get into for people that don’t care/aren’t passionate about it and that have no talent at teaching. Too many have 0 talent at teaching and only spill words at you. Like they should ask themselves “Am I good communicator? Can I properly teach and explain stuff passionately? Will I do this for many many years or will I get bored of it?” Most of them only treat it as a job and that’s sad and disastrous for the future generations.

@@HyperionFive All true. However, if you consider how much teachers are paid, it's no surprise. Where I live, the average wage of a teacher in a public school is a bit less than that of a cashier. Would you expect someone getting this little money to dedicate themselves that much? Yes, something could be said about dedication not being about money. But good money would attract more people, out of those more would turn out to be dedicated and good teachers. Plus, a good salary makes many day-to-day worries go away, allowing you to focus more on what you love (i.e. teaching). We seem to be paying very little to teachers in many countries while it is indeed true that much of our children's future depends not only on if, but how they are educated. A lot is also expected from this profession and it's not proportional to the salary. I understand why that is (i.e. teachers where I live can be pushed around more than doctors or miners even when they go on strike, so the government will not pay them more than it absolutely has to), but it's not a pretty picture.

I'm sure most teachers start out like this guy. He looks pretty young. It's the downsides of the job that add up over years and the teaching profession isn't exactly overflowing with applicants. There's way to fix that and I hope it gets better some day. Edit: you can stop disagreeing with me and get your reading comprehension up, I said "most" which means it's not true for 100% of teachers.

@@anonymoususer4706 Meh, disagree. My college algebra instructor was about this guy's age and he was the worst math instructor I ever had. Seldom explained how/why we used certain functions, operations, etc, and anytime I asked, "why is it done that way?," my questions were typically either dismissed out of hand or I was told to "research it on my own time." Most of my "instruction" in college algebra was myself, poring over my textbook weeknights at my kitchen table in my apartment. I basically had to read and re-read lessons, do textbook examples, quizzes, etc and then check my work against the answers in the back of the book to teach myself college algebra. It was the only class in college I had to that in, and I had numerous programming classes. My physical science teacher in high school was the complete opposite though -- he was also the head football coach, and no matter what area of physics we were studying, he could make football analogous in his explanations.

It's not concrete, but very often does matter.

Tesla fender gaps for example

A lot of subjects may include stuff that have no practical application, but if you teach the material and have students display critical thinking to come up with correct answers, I think that’s great. I would imagine that helps students realize what subjects they’re strong in and what subjects they’re weak in.

Damn lol.

@@bubblehead4270 I think people also tend to take "real-world application" extremely literally, rather than understanding that some subjects are just to teach rules. The easiest way to explain this would be through a language example. If your language teacher teaches you "Johnny is a hairdresser and he hates his job"/"Johnny est coiffeur et il déteste son travail"/"Johnny es peluquero y odia su trabajo"/etc., some people may say "I don't know any hairdressers. This is worthless to me". However, the point is not to give you the stock phrase about a person called Johnny being a hairdresser, it's about learning the actual building blocks behind it (What verb is used to describe profession? Do you put an article before the profession? How do you bridge the gap between a statement and an opinion? How do you express opinions of a third-party? How do you translate the possession in "his job"?) so that then when you have to discuss things you WOULD talk about in a regular setting, you know how to put the pieces together.

What are tolerances? And what field are you talking about? Construction/civil engineering?

Yeah, in my opinion the best way to prove something or demonstrate something is to use the extremes. Always makes it more visible.

So what you saw the triangles and instantly knew they weren’t similar?

AAAAAAA++🌈🌈

Hmm. I disagree. This problem gives the illusion of trigonometry being inaccessible. It makes the hurdle seem much higher. Honestly this is an unfair problem. Normally you should be told which bits are the same length and if the angles are 90 degrees if you want to pull a trick like this. The reason they didn’t is because the answer becomes obvious to those who understand the notation (which is pretty simple to learn). That’s just a way to make people feel silly or stupid and I don’t think that encourages people to learn. 😣

So the really issue was the shape placement…… when a two shape having different angle is not the cause of the gap, the angle is the illusion. The gap is cause by the other two shape…… I hope you people understand that……

I did well in math. Well, that is until I walked into my high school math class: geometry. Prove things? Why? 2+2 = 4. What's there to prove. Nevermind being out of left field. I wasn't even playing the same sport as the class. I failed the first quarter. My parents came home from parent-teacher night to tell me that the teacher said he would have passed me if I had participated. Really? I had no bloody idea as to what was going on. Fortunately I managed to figure things out and pass the class by the end of the year.

@@bikeny It could be a matter of checking your work. Most of the time, "proof" isn't as simple as 2+2=4 and isn't as simple to trace back to the roots. I hated proof too :)

@@kxt9458 same I just did math memorizing the names of all the geography proofs was painful I've never used it again and promptly forgot it all

so true all the math teachers I've met have seemed to hate there life constantly bored at school or complaining about how terrible the school administration was well or I've only met two but those psycho ones that brag about how many people failed last year and everyone had to go to after school studying with him (once a week) to pass

Struggle through the high school classes and you might be able to dual-enroll at a community college. It’s more difficult, but you bet your ass those professors are better than a typical high school math teacher.

OK, that made it easy for me, thanks.

I'm getting a 1.25 degree difference between the angles. I can't see either difference in the angles.

@@JimCaserta Good catch. Fixed.

i have no idea what this means, but thanks 😀😀
