oh yea, i for got to mention that x,y and z are non negative integers.always do this silly mistake

one more prob:
on the lines of number of possible traingles for given perimeter.
say, if x+y+z=22, then we have hw many traingles.x,y and z are sides of traingle


Once the game is over, the king and pawn go back to same box.
Itz the game which is important,not the king !!!

the max integral side length = 10

number of equilateral triangles = 0.
number of isosceles triangles = (10,10,2);(9,9,4);(8,8,6);(7,7,5);(6,6,10). Hence 5.
number of scalene triangles = (10,9,3);(10,8,4);(10,7,5);(9,8,5);(9,7,6). Hence 5.

total = 10.

id nos are real and even integers then its infinite that's quite clear.

2) x+y+z = 10 and x,y,z>=0

formulas (n+r-1)C(r-1) here n= 10 and r=3

3) x,y,z>0

so take x1,y1,z1>=0 and x=x1+1 and so on

eq become x1+y1+z1= 7

now n= 7 and r=3

दुनीया को जीतने का होसला रखो यारो|
एक जीत ओर हार से कोइ सीकंदर या फकीर नही बनता|

Re: Maths Taking Tricks - 03-10-2006, 02:40 PM

i think wat our frn did was that he used da theorem which says
in any triangle the sum of two sides is greater than the third side
that ways the problem gets narrowed
i have a question 4 u guys
let moi arrange the question
