10-year old question

This was given to 10 year olds.

Can you answer it?

the top is 44

I dont' know how to do the bottom unless that 2cm label is labeling the small vertical length. In which case the answer for the bottom one is also 44

First one is 44cm

Second one is also 44cm

[eqn]P=44[/eqn]

Both 44cm

I'm actually getting 43.84cm, did you guys use paint or a different program to measure the lines? I can put a ruler up to my screen if it will help.

t. every first year mech eng opening this thread

Pictures not drawn to scale. Use maths alone to figure it out.

I think you missed a bit of sarcasm there, kiddo

i didn't even know it was solvable :3

Not enough data for second shape

you cant answer because the lengths of all the sides arent given

Yes there is

How do you work out the first one?

Even if it's not to scale, how are you supposed to solve this? I'm stumped.

Nevermind, thought it was area the question was asking for

These aren't solvable. I hope that's obvious..

For the first one, think about what the two unlabelled vertical lengths must add up to, likewise with the horizontal.

think what happens if you start moving the lines.

Vertical lines add up to 24 (12 + 12)
Horizonal lines add up to 20 (10 + 10)
Total, 44cm

whoops like this guy I thought it was asking area.

you cant know what the unlabeled sides are unless you measured them retard

As the title says, they're "rectilinear shapes" so the 2 unknown verticals will equal the known vertical, retard.

If all the angles are right angles, which they are obviously supposed to be, then you can.

Wouldn't the second one be 42?

You gotta add the 2cm twice dawg

You're right, I'm dumb.

wrong. the title didnt say that the lines are parrelel. try again kid.

Pls don't bait

>everyone assuming euclidean metric

Plebs get out!

i must apply monte carlo method and hope for the best

No matter how we cut rectilinear shape, we always get the same perimeter as it was full

No

i didnt know so i wanted to read whole thread to learn how and im even more confused. fuck you Veeky Forums. fuck you math

I know people who actually do this.
they disgust me

It's just 9 and 11 twice plus 2 twice for the extra bit

44

Literally primary school level

Oh yeah, the 2cm is the short vertical distance btw

Otherwise it is unsolvable but it's a children's question so it's not going to be that.

I didn't read the question correctly and tried to solve for area. . .

Am I retarded Veeky Forums?
