disgrace of the day

OpenStudy (anonymous):

from a question last night. what's wrong with this picture?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it says triangles?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The given angle should have been more than pi/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1349963634731:dw|

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

if π/6 is an angle in a right angled triangle then is it the smallest angle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh it is not a right angled triangle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@satellite73 is the angle given in radian then the angle would be 30

OpenStudy (turingtest):

@Unkle it does say "not drawn to scale though"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then later when you are asked to "solve" a triangle it is impossible, because no one can draw the damn thing would the same moron who gave this problem draw a rectangle and label as follows |dw:1349963756626:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not drawn to scale is no excuse you cannot make \(\frac{\pi}{6}\) larger than \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) it just doesn't make sense

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh man all these guys are greatest ones in OS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it still says triangles not drawn to scale...which is plural and i only see one >.>

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, u mean to say not enough information given in the figure to say it is a right angled triangle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i mean the question is designed to confuse. the long side of the triangle is shorter than the short side. it is insane

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

just another reason to hate math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is this a question to confuse everyone

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah..... So, I said the given angle must be greater than pi/4
