By 345 Pythagoras gets the Day Off Unknown U = R/4 you subtract the 4 side from the 5 side to get unknown. 5 = (5/3 + 5/4) R or 1 = (1/3 + 1/4) 4U 1= (4/3 + 3/3) U 1= 7/3. U U =3/7

Wow! Alternatively, OBD is similar to ABC which is a 3-4-5 triangle OD = r, BD = 4-r (4 - r) /r = 4/3 12 - 3r = 4r 7r = 12 r = 12/7 Also OB = (5/3)r = 20/7 x = 5 - OB - r x = 35/7 - 20/7 - 12/7 x = 3/7

3,4,5 rule its very handy! 👍
At 4:15 you start area calculations. THIS IS EXCESSIVELY COMPLICATED! Solve for r knowing triangle BDO is similar to BCA. r/(4-r) = 3/4. From this 4r = 12-3r & r = 12/7 = OP. OA = (5/4)r = 15/7 X = PA = (15/7) - (12/7) = 3/7. No quadratic equation needed!
Nice question, this can also be solved using similar triangles. Would be faster and easier - dont need to deal with quadratics...
The problem can be solved much simpler. Two equations: 1) (r+x)/r = 5/4 2) (r+x)/(3-r) = 5/3 1) solves to r = 4x Filling in 4x for r in 2) solves to x = 3/7
We don't have to use similarity when finding r. Since ABC=OBC+OAC, 6=2r+3r/2. This is much easier.

Clever !
draw a horizontal line and a perpendicular line from the center of the circle r / (r + x) = 4/5 5r = 4r + 4x x = r/4 r / (3 - r) = 4/3 3r = 12 - 4r r = 12/7 x = r/4 = 3/7
What a convoluted way to get to that answer!
Невероятная сложность решения в ролике меня просто поразила. :)))))))))) Центр окружности - это основание биссектрисы прямого угла (потому что равноудален от сторон угла :)) ), то есть делит гипотенузу на отрезки 5*3/(3+4)=15/7 и 20/7; Центр, точки касания и вершина прямого угла - это вершины квадрата. За пределами квадрата остаются два треугольника, подобных исходному, с гипотенузами 15/7 и 20/7 (в сумме 5, разумеется), откуда радиус (меньший катет одного треугольника и больший у другого) 12/7 (тут обычно трудности с восприятием этой совершенно элементарной мысли, поэтому поясню - у треугольника с гипотенузой 15/7 и подобного "египетскому" (3,4,5) на самом деле известны и катеты 9/7 и 12/7, а не только гипотенуза :) больший катет как раз и будет радиус этой окружности) Осталось 15/7 - 12/7 = 3/7. Очень сложная задача, ну совсем олимпиадная. :)))

Alternate method with simple calculations in coordinate system: center of circle is the intersection of (A,B) and bisectiing line of angle BCA. Choose coordinte center in C. So we have x/4 + y/3 = 1 and y = -x. => O(-12/7;12/7) => r=12/7. Then x = dist(O,A) - r = 3/7. No rocket science, few geometry rules, simple doing even for pupils.
CONGRATULATON!YOU FIND THE MOST CUMBERSOME WAY TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM!
You did not mention in the question that A B passes by the center of the circle. Put the origine at C, the center of the circle is (-r , r). The line AB has the equation 4y - 3x = 12. So 7r = 12. Now x = SQRT (sqr(r) + sqr(3-r)) - r. Replace r by 12/7 and you got the answer.
There is no O in the center of semi circle at the start of this task. Where did you get that? 'O' can be elsewhere..

He's wrong.
Let's consider the triangles OAC and OBC then solve the equation Area (ABC)=Area(Oac)+ area(obc) to find the radius Then Pythagoras theorem to calculate x
The main triangle is a classic 3-4-5 right triangle. Its easier to use side ratio. Exc triangle OEA OE:4::EA:3, then r/4=(3-r)/3 there you get r=12/7 And then OA:5::OE:4, then (r+x)/5=r/4, then 4r+4x=5r, then 4x=r, so x=r/4=3/7... done in less than 1 minute without hassle
can be easier using 3-4-5 triangle (and previously determining r = 12/7) AB = x + r + OB (with OB = sqrt(r²+(4-r)²) from Pythagorus) => 5 = x+ r + sqrt(r²+(4-r)²) => x = 5 - r - sqrt(r²+(4-r)²) => x = 5 - 12/7 - sqrt((12/7)²+(16/7)²) => x = 23/7 - sqrt(12²+16²)/7 (12²+16² = 20² still from homothetic 3-4-5 triangle) => x = 23/7 - sqrt(20²)/7 => x = 23/7 - 20/7 = 3/7 (no quadratic equation to solve)
r/(4-r)=(3-r)/r》r=12/7 Potencia de A respecto a la circunferencia =X[(24/7)+X] =[3-(12/7)]^2》X=3/7 Gracias y saludos.
You could just used trig find the angle and r is easily calculated. Great job anyway for that long calculation👍👍
As BC = 4 and CA = 3, ∆BCA is a 3-4-5 Pythagorean triple triangle and AB = 5. Let O be the center point of the semicircle (at the midpoint of PQ). As AP = x and OP = r, AO = x+r. Let M and N be the points of tangency between semicircle O and BC and CA respectively. Draw OM and ON. As radii, OQ = OM = ON = OP = r. First method: As BC and CA are tangent to semicircle O, ∠OMC = ∠CNO = 90°. As ∠MCN = 90° as well, then ∠NOM = 90° and OMCN is a square with side length r. As BC = 4 and CA = 3, BM = 4-r and NA = 3-r. As ∠BMO = ∠BCA = 90° and ∠B is common, ∆BMO and ∆BCA are similar. OB/BM = AB/BC OB/4-r = 5/4 OB = (4-r)5/4 = 5 - 5r/4 AB = 5 AO + OB = 5 (x+r) + (5-5r/4) = 5 x + r = 5r/4 x = 5r/4 - r = r/4 Triangle ∆BMO: OM² + BM² = OB² r² + (4-r)² = (5-5r/4)² = ((20-5r)/4)² r² + 16 - 8r + r² = (400-200r+25r²)/16 32r² - 128r + 256 = 25r² - 200r + 400 7r² + 72r - 144 = 0 7r² + 84r - 12r - 144 = 0 7r(r+12) - 12(r+12) = 0 (r+12)(7r-12) = 0 r = -12 ❌ | r = 12/7 x = r/4 = (12/7)/4 = 3/7 Second method: Draw OC. This creates two triangles, ∆OBC and ∆OCA. As BC and CA are tangent to semicircle O at M and N respectively, OM is perpendicular to BC and ON is perpendicular to CA. [ABC] = [OBC] + [OCA] bh/2 = bh/2 + bh/2 4(3)/2 = 4r/2 + 3r/2 12 = 7r r = 12/7 As OM is perpendicular to BC, ON is perpendicular to CA, and BC is perpendicular to CA, CN = OM = r. As CA = 3, NA = 3-r = 3-(12/7) = 9/7. As ON = 12/7, ∆ONA is a 3/7:1 ratio 3-4-5 Pythagorean triple triangle and AO = 5(3/7) = 15/7. AO = x + r 15/7 = x + 12/7 x = 15/7 - 12/7 = 3/7
You used very long claculations To find r, after proving AEO is similar to ODB AE / OE = OD / BD (3 - r)/r = r/(4 - r) (3 - r) (4 - r) = r^2 12 - 7r + r^2 = r^2 12 = 7r r = 12/7 Now apply Pythagoras in AEO (3-r)^2 + r^2 = (r+x)^2 x = Root((3-r)^2 + r^2) - r Now input r = 12/7 and calculate for x x = 3/7 Alternatively, r / (r+x) = 4/5 (because we have 3-4-5 right triangle) 5r = 4r + 4x r = 4x x = r/4 x = 12/(7 x 4) x = 3/7
It's well triangle OBD is similar to his counterpart OEA also ABC OD is Radius center of semicircle AC=3, r=AE=CE, Square ⬛️ =r*r=r² BC=4, BD+DC=4 , BD+r=4, BD=4-r Theorem (4-r)²+(r)²=16-8r+r²+r² =(BO)² AC=3, AE+EC=3, AE+r=3, 3-r=AE r/(4-r)=(3-r)/r, 12=6r-2r²+4r²+8r-2r² 12=7r, r=12/7 OP=r, QO=r QP=2r=2*12/7=24/7=QP Theorem Phythagorean(degree 90) in triangle BOD (12/7)²(4-12/7)²=(B0)² =(BO)²=8.1632653061 BO=sqrt(8.1632653061) In traingle AOE (r)²+(3-r)²=(r+x)² r²+9-6r+r²=r²+2rx+x² (3-r)²=x(2r+x) x²+24/7x=9-72/7+144/49 7x²+24=(441-504+144)/7 49x²+168=441-504+144 49x²+168=81 (7x)²+(13-1)(13+1)=(9)² x=-b±sqrt(b²-4ac)/2a)=x x=3/7
O needs to be on the 45 deg diagonal through C, and belong also to the line AB. So it's coordinates are (12/7) (-1,1), where C is the origin. The distance of O to A is therefore (15/7). The distance x is therefore 15/7 - 12/7 (the radius of the circle) = 3/7

5! Satz des Phytagoras: Die Summe der Quadratflächen über den kurzen Seiten eines techtwinkligen Dreiecks, entspricht der Quadratfläche der längsten Seite. (BEWUSST ohne die Verwendung der Fachbegriffe formuliert!) Da die Kantenlänge eines Quadrats die Wurzel aus der Fläche ist: 3×3=9 und 4×4=16 9 +16=25. 5×5=25, also 5. 😂😂😂
With Thales theorem BD/BC=OD/AC (4-R)/4=R/3 we obtain R=12/7 Another Thales theorem AO/AB=OE/BC (x+R)/5=R/4 x=R/4 x=12/4 7=3/7 So easy
r=(A*B)/(A+B) and X=A/(A+B) - simple proportions
The sum of the area of triangle OBD + the area of square OECD + the area of triangle OAE must be equal to the area of triangle ABC. Means a(4-a) + a(3-a) + a^2 =12 This means: a^2 - 7a + 12 = 0 This means: a = 3 or a = 4 While a < 3. This problem is incorrect.
Who says it's a semicircle?
Draw a perpendicular line from the point of tangency from both bases to the hypotenuse, forming a new triangle. The sides of these triangles are 3 - radius, radius, and a hypotenuse of sides 5/4 r since the new triangle is similar to the original 3-4-5 right triangle Hence 5/4 r = (3-r)^2 + r^2 25/16 r^2 = 9 + r^2 - 6r + r^2 25/16 r^2 = 9 + 2r^2 - 6 r 25 r ^2 = 144 + 32 r^2 - 96 r 0 = 7 r^2 - 96 r + 144 r = 1.71429 Hence, the length from the center of the semi-circle to the end of the triangle is 5/4 * 1.71429 or 2.1428625 Since r = 1.71429, then x = 2.1428625 - 1.71429 = 0.4285725
Just use the triangle 3,4,5 You can find it easy. 3.4.5 it's very important and handy learn it
Then you want to complicate what is simple. Triangle ABC is similar to AEO. (3-R)/3 = R/4 = (X+R)/5
The way you this solve problem is way too tedious than it needs be. Just use similar triangles on AOE and OBD to solve for r. Then plug in the value of r in the eqn (r+x)^2=r^2+(3-r)^2 to get x directly. No need to invoke the quadratic formula.
Let's reason about the symmetry of the image in relation to the vertical. The equation of the circle is (x-r)^2+(y-r)^2=r^2. the center is the intersection of the lines: y=x and y=ax+b (noted ∆) with 3=a(0)+b and 0=4a+b i.e.: b=3 and a=-3/4 d 'where y=(-3/4)x+3. For y=x, we will have: (4/4)x=3-(3/4)x or (7/4)x=3. So r=12/7=24/14. If the center is noted C and A(0,3) on ∆, ||AC||=15/7 let D be the point of intersection of the circle and ∆ in the segment AC. ||AC||=||AD||+||DC||=x+r. 15/7=x+12/7, x=3/12. Why ||AC||=15/7 ? ||AC||^2 = r^2+(3-r)^2 = 9-6r+2r^2 = 2(144/49) + (9*49)/49 - (6*12*7)/49 = (288+441-504)/49=(729-504)/49=225/49=(15/7)^2 and then ||AC||=15/7. Other solution : r=12/7 and according to the diagram, ABC and AOE are two identical triangles. Consequently: OE/BC=AO/AB, i.e. r/4=(r+x)/5. So, 5r/20=4r/20+4x/20. So r/20=4x/20, x=r/4=(12/7)/4=3/7.

Con semejanza de triángulos se puede resolver mucho más rápido.
the problem include semicircle? any where?
Your problem not explicit enough. You are assuming that the center of the circle is on the line of ab. The problem doesn’t say that. Therefore the center of the circle is not necessarily be on the hypotenuse also reach the answer thru sin and co-sin is much easier
