A, B and C are three points on a straight line, not
necessarily equidistant with B being between A and C. Three
semicircles are drawn on the same side of the line with AB,
BC and AC as the diameters. BD is perpendicular to the line
ABC, and D lies on the semicircle AC.

If the funny shaped diagram between the three semicircles
has an area of 1000 square cms, find the length of BD.



A, B and C are three points on a straight line, not necessarily equidistant with B being between A ..

Answer / guest

The length of BD is 35.68 cms

There are 3 right-angled triangles - ABD, CBD and ADC.

From ABD, AB^2 + BD^2 = AD^2 ------ I

From CBD, CB^2 + BD^2 = CD^2 ------ II

From ADC, AD^2 + CD^2 = AC^2 ------ III

Adding I and II,

AB^2 + BC^2 + 2*BD^2 = AD^2 + CD^2 ------ IV

FROM III and IV

AB^2 + BC^2 + 2*BD^2 = AC^2

AB^2 + BC^2 + 2*BD^2 = (AB+CB)^2

2*BD^2 = 2*AB*CB

BD^2 = AB*CB

BD = SQRT(AB*CB)

Given that funny shaped diagram beween three semicircles has
an area of 1000 square cms.

[PI/2 * (AC/2)^2] - [PI/2 * (AB/2)^2] - [PI/2 * (BC/2)^2] =
1000

PI/8 * [AC^2 - AB^2 - BC^2] = 1000

PI * [(AB+BC)^2 - AB^2 - BC^2] = 8000

PI * [2*AB*BC] = 8000

AB * BC = 4000/PI

Hence BD = SQRT(4000/PI) = 35.68 cms

where PI = 3.141592654

Hence, the length of BD is 35.68 cms.

On the shelf you have 10 identical bottles of identical pills (let?s say there?s a hundred pills in each bottle). However, one of those 10 bottles contains cheap knockoff pills. The only way to differentiate fake pills from real pills is the weight - while real pills weigh 1 g each, the knockoff pills are only 0.9 g. You have one scale that shows the exact weight (down to the mg) of whatever is weighed. How can you tell which bottle contains fake pills with just 1 weighing?
