I am in physics right now. I'm sorry, but I am WAY to tired to even make a gander right now.

This smells of highschool geometry problem. Here's a hint: What defines that angle? The 12 long line, the right angle, and specifically the circle's tangent. Investigate from there and you'll get the answer.
If you're a lazy bastard, here's a (I think fairly plain) hint: Last resort! Don't ruin the sport . :3

-Derpman's edit: The upper subsection of the 12 line is 7, not 6. Same goes for the section to the right. Does not affect the path to the solution.

I also think it would be good practice to use symbolic variables instead of numbers. In this case the image would look like this:

I love it when people provide visual aid.

blackbelt_jr have you been able to solve for alpha, or do you need more hints?


RE: Geometry problem - Nickster258 - 04-19-2013

Yes, still need help?

OMGOMGOMG IDK WHOS IDEA THIS IS AN I DONT KNO IF I SHULD DO THIS BUT BUMPING IS FUN SO I BUMP FIRST OFF TOPIC THREAD I CANT EVEN BELIEVE IM DOING THIS OMGOMGOMG


RE: Geometry problem - Dcentrics - 02-05-2014

yeah im about to bump it back down.....


RE: Geometry problem - Iceglade - 02-05-2014

No. This is the hour.
