Re: Years 9 & 10 2012 Chit Chat Thread

Don't put yourself down :( Tbh I doubt anyone in this year 9/10 thread can do it (no offense) (and year 9/10's only). It's just so subtle.. and at this level we're use to seeing things straight forward. Besides it took me a while to get the answer (I would have skipped it in an exam!)

Dont worry, it took me a while to get it as well (and I was doing this question with a student).

Here's a year 9/10 question for those who want to be challenged
In a rectangle, the shorter side is four times the difference between the diagonal and the longer side. Find the ratio of the longer side to the shorter side.

It's quite interesting you guys all post questions involving a fair amount of logic rather than Year 10 stuff which says something about the syllabus.
