Here's an easier problem: There's an arbitrary triangle drawn, how do you draw a straight line with a pencil and a ruler so that it intersects only one side of the triangle? a vertex touching counts as two intersections. Can you solve it? I don't even doubt it, because the problems are practically the same.

Of course I have solved this problem, this problem has no solution if the problem is from the field of classical education (Aristotelian) which is taught at school, because there is a theorem about the number of intersections of a closed curve! where it is stated that the closed curve is intersected by a line in at least two points!
but if this problem is from the field of education of the "chumba yumba" tribe, then there are as many solutions as you like!
Yeah. Saved some more on the sour cream. Thank you.

This problem can be solved by anyone with an understanding of basic definitions of Euclidean geometry such as straight line, triangle and plane. Moreover, even kindergarten children unknowingly solve it, provided they first take away the ruler, because the solution requires only a pencil dot on any side of the triangle, which is sufficient to project a line perpendicular to the plane of the triangle and intersecting just one of its sides.

Alas, apparently your deep knowledge of mathematics is too deep to solve such simple problems. So please calm your ardour and start thinking with your head.

Is it a straight line of a strictly defined length or can it be extended???
Actually the definition of a straight line clearly differentiates it with respect to such concepts as ray and segment. So your question is a bit odd.

Preliminary
The straight line must lie in another plane or one side of the triangle must be extended.


It's all in the terms of the problem. It is sufficiently deterministic to exclude even the intersection of incorrect projections of lines lying in other planes. But you were thinking in the right direction.

It gives a strange impression of the branch.
It looks like the bustle of drunken intellectuals at the gypsy village gambler's table.
Earlier similar threads died on the fifth post.
I don't get it - is it a full moon...?

Guys, apparently, self-affirming, maintaining a conversation with the author of the branch, whose knowledge in the forum topics are several orders of magnitude inferior to the knowledge of each interlocutor in this branch. Although maybe they have other reasons that I do not understand, but I do not get any of the post utkef (or geluya, whichever is more convenient) funny, but only sickened, as from our pops.
P.S. - Nothing personal, neither to Utkef nor to our pops.

I guess I was right.

Ladies and gentlemen, stop measuring your f... ...skulls, or rather their contents. 20 pages in a branch, but what does it give the reader? I'm sure most will understand.
 
Well, the moon seems to have entered a new phase and everyone has calmed down. Time to bring a postscript to the branch.

granit77, I really like your comments. It's the second time you've hit the mark.
 

The main thing is to determine in time what is agitated stupidity and what is a bubbling mind:) We all make mistakes and sooner or later realise this, unfortunately, more often than not, from our own experience than from examples:)

I'm telling you all this because your claims of a super-high IQ are worthless if you're not using them to achieve success. There are quite a few people here with very high intelligence, and you're not the first or last to make such claims on this and other traders' forums. Take on real challenges, get results, and you won't have to prove your abilities to others afterwards.
Of the 10 richest people in the world, 9 (!!!) do not have higher education.
Including the richest man (the notorious BG). This is such a sad fact about success and IQ levels.

In reality, they have a much higher education than what is given in universities. Why learn to jump benches when you can pole vault N metres high :-)

It's much simpler than that. H. Ford used to say on this subject: "Why should I need to be educated in all areas when I can hire any specialist I want?".
 

Well, yes, in general there are no particularly significant pairwise correlations between formal education, IQ and success in life.
