    Method using similar triangles and Pythagoras theorem: 1. Let side of yellow square be 2a. 2. Triangles ADE and DCF are similar, by corresponding sides proportionality equations, AE = a, CF = 4a 3. Hence AB = 3a and BC = 6a 4. In triangle ABC, by Pythagoras theorem, (7+14)^2 = (3a)^2 + (6a)^2 Hence a^2 = 49/5 5. Area of yellow square = (2a)^2 = 4a^2 = 196/5

    39.2 The triangles are similar Let the side of the square = n Let the base of the the triangle on the right = p, then n/7 = p/14 14n= 7p 2n = p Therefore, the longest base of each triangle is TWICE the shortest base. Therefore, the length of the base of the big triangle = 3n (2n + n) Hence, the shortest base for the triangle on top is 0.5n. Hence, the length of the base of the big triangle = 1.5n (n + 0.5n) Hence, the sides of the big triangle are 1.5n , 3n and 21 (14+ 7) Let's employed Pythagorean Theorem (1.5n)^2 + (3n)^2 = 21^2 2.25n ^2 + 9n^2 = 441 11.25n^2 = 441 n^2= 39.2

    Taking the secant of the shared triange of the smallest triangle and the biggest one as the same. Let length of 🟨 = a 7/ ( 49-a^2)^.5 = 21/ (a+(49-a^2)^.5 Divide by 7 and cross miltiply A + (49- a^2)^.5 = 3(49-a^2)^0.5 Remove the extra (49-a^2)^0.5 A = 2 (49- a^2) ^ 0.5 Square both sides A^2 = 4 ( 49- a^2) A^2 on one side 5a^2= 196 A^2= 196/5#

    Fairly simple. Answer I came up with in my head: 196/5 sq units Now let's see if I'm right: Let s be the side length of square BEDF, so BE = ED = DF = FB = s. Let ∠BAC = α and ∠ACB = β, where α and β are complementary angles that sum to 90°. As ∠DEA = 90°, ∠ADE = 90°- α = β, and as ∠EDF = 90°, ∠FDC = 180°-90°- β = α, so ∆DEA and ∆CFD are similar to ∆ABC and to each other. BA/FD = AC/DC BA/s = 21/14 = 3/2 BA = 3s/2 CB/DE = AC/AD CB/s = 21/7 = 3 CB = 3s BA² + CB² = AC² (3s/2)² + (3s)² = 21² 9s²/4 + 9s² = 441 45s²/4 = 441 s² = 441(4/45) = 49(4/5) = 196/5 = 39.2 sq units

    Let's find the area: . .. ... .... ..... The right triangles ADE and CDF are obviously similar. So with s being the side length of the square we can conclude: AE/DF = DE/CF = AD/CD AE/s = s/CF = 7/14 = 1/2 AE/s = 1/2 ⇒ AE = s/2 ⇒ AB = AE + BE = s/2 + s = 3*s/2 s/CF = 1/2 ⇒ CF = 2*s ⇒ BC = BF + CF = s + 2*s = 3*s The triangle ABC is also a right triangle. Therefore we can apply the Pythagorean theorem in order to obtain the area of the yellow square: AB² + BC² = AC² AB² + BC² = (AD + CD)² (3*s/2)² + (3*s)² = (7 + 14)² 9*s²/4 + 9*s² = 21² = 3²*7² s²/4 + s² = 7² (5/4)*s² = 49 ⇒ A(BEDF) = s² = 4*49/5 = 196/5 = 39.2 Best regards from Germany

    The video ephasizes how many different paths you can dive into looking for your solution. Always something to learn from. However, reading the comments from so many viewers it is hard not to get the impression that the video is missing the obvoius ratio 7:14 staring at you even before you start the video. And that ratio makes the problem so easy, that most viewers find the solution in their heads. Maybe next time it would make sense to change the angles a little, so finding the ratio actually requires a pen and paper for most. Anyway, great work!

    Triangles AED and DFC are similar, FC/ED = 14/4 = 2, so FC = 2.c with c the side length of the square. Then in triangle DFC DC^2 = DF^2 + FC^2, or 14^2 = 4.c^2 + c^2. So c^2 = 14^2/5 The area of the square is c^2 = 14^2/5 = 196/5.

    Because the triangles CDF and DEA are similar with a length scaling of 2 then we can see that the smaller right angle triangle DEA comprises a hypotenues of length 7 and base side and height side lengths of lengths "a" and "1/2a" respectively. Using pythag we see that 7^2=a^2 + (1/2a)^2. Expanding out we see that 49 = a^2 + 1/4 a^2 = 5/4 a^2 Rearranging we see that a^2 (which also happens to be the area of yellow square = (4 . 49)/5 =39.2 units^2 Simple

    I missed a trick here. With x as the square's side length, I could have gone for (3x)^2 + ((3/2)x)^2 = 21^2 9x^2 + (9/4)x^2 = 441 (45/4)x^2 = 441, ---> 45x^2 = 1764 ---> x^2 = 1764/45 = 39.2

    If the square's sides are x, then FC = 2x due to the 7:14 ratio. By the same principle, AB is one and a half x so (3/2)x, making AE ((1/2)x Although the triangles are similar, it looks like I need an additional parameter from somewhere. The base is twice the height. tan(-1)(1/2) is 26.57deg so want ED/7 = cos(26.57) 7*cos(26.57) = 6.26... Square it for 39.19 un^2 (rounded) I have now looked. Your way was cleaner, not least because it gave an exact answer rather than relying on the close approximations of trigonometry. Thank you.

    As the big and the small triangle are similar and 7 is the half of 14, AE is half DF. So (1/2a)^2+a^2=7^2 => 1.25.a^2=49 =>a^2=39.2

    Let x the side length of the square. The triangle right of the square and the triangle topof the square are similar..The hypothenuse of the triangle top of the squareis hallf the lengthof zje hpothhenuse of the square right of the square. So the length of the legs of the triangle right of the square are x and 2x. Accordng to pythagoras, we have the equation x^2+(2x)^2=14^2 x^2+4x^2=196 5x^2=196 x^2=39,2 That is also the area of the square. It is unnecessary to calculate the length of BC,because we can get the length of FC directly from the similarity of the 2 triangles rigthof the square and top of the square.
