Two questions from math class 2009-06-18
Con pose la question :
Hello,

My name is Con and my son is required to answer the following questions for his maths class.

He has attempted Q1 through trial and error and has found the answer to 72453. Is this correct?

He has attempted to draw the triangles described in Q2 in a number of ways and has found that BE can not equal ED and is dependent of angle BAC. Therefore, he claims that the triangle can not be drawn/practical. Is this correct or is there a slolution?

Q1.
Digits 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 are each used once to compose a 5-digit number abcde such that 4 divides a 3-digit number abc, 5 divides a 3-digit number bcd and 3 divides a 3-digit number cde. Find the 5-digit number abcde.

Q2.
Let ABC be a triangle with AB=AC. D is a point on AC such that BC=BD. E is a point on AB such that BE = ED = AD. Find the size of the angle EAD. Con

Ken pose la question :
Hi there, We are rollforming steel roofsheeting in 65M lengths and the = question of linear expansion has cropped up.I would like to know what = the expansion rate of this sheet would be over a temperature rise of say = 40degree F.in mm per Meter or whatever the norm is. The sheet is 0.53mm = thick and is 700mm in width,I hope this is sufficient info to enable you = to do your calculation.Many thanks, in anticipation. Ken

Triangular Numbers 2009-06-16
Chinonyerem pose la question :
Question from Chinonyerem, a student:

Each of the numbers
1 = 1, 3 = 1+2, 6 = 1+2+3, 10 = 1+2+3+4 ,...
represents the number of dots that can be arranged evenly in an equilateral
triangle:
                            .
                  .        . .
        .         .       . . .             ...
.      . .      . . .    . . . .
This led the ancient Greeks to call a number TRIANGULAR if it is the
sum of consecutive integers, beginning with 1. Prove the following facts
concerning triangular numbers:
(a) A number is triangular if and only if it is of the form n(n+1)/2 for some n >= 1
(b) The integer n is a triangular number if and only if 8n+1 is a perfect square
(c) The sum of any two consecutive triangular numbers is a perfect square
(d) If n is a triangular number, then so are 9n+1, 25n+3, and 49n+6
