You Are Not Stupid



You got 10/10 questions right!
While acing this quiz doesn't prove you're a genius, you're at least pretty darn smart.

What'd you miss, David - a few of them were tricky!  :D

I have no idea Lynne. Remember, I'm kind of stupid!  :laugh:  :laugh:

I'm sure I missed the question about the triangles. Other than that, it's anyone's guess.  :P

LOL! You're definitely not stupid, David!  The triangle sides are always 3, 4, 5...Pythagorean theorem...ie...25 = 9 + 16  (square of the legs = square of hypotenuse or longest leg)....The tricky one for me was the dividing by 1/2 - it's really multiplying by 2!!  Too much math - I didn't make Mom take this one  ::) 8).

Even my calculator exploded when it tried to figure that one out!  :laugh:

I messed up a baker's dozen. Never heard this expression before  :-\.

But Pythagorean theorem is only valid for a right-angled triangle



When the angle gets bigger than 90°, the third side becomes longer:



(The above pics are not scaled, They only shall illustrate the angles.)


So the question is not correct; it's not well-defined. There are triangles where the shorter sides are 3 and 4 inches, but the longest side is more than 5 inches.

See, David, it's not your fault. Those blog-thing questions are stupid, not you  :-*

Anyone care to give all correct answers?

Had the Bakers's dozen wrong (never heard of it before either) and the triangle question. But I got a third one wrong and cannot figure out which one it is?
