Re: A few questions
Hi Agnishom;
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.

Re: A few questions
What led you to the conjecture?
'And fun? If maths is fun, then getting a tooth extraction is fun. A viral infection is fun. Rabies shots are fun.'
'God exists because Mathematics is consistent, and the devil exists because we cannot prove it'

Re: A few questions
Hi;
Experimental math will produce the correct answer or one that is very close nearly all the time. Not quite rigorous enough for mathematicians but in the real world computation is king.
In addition it suggests a useful property of the possible triangle. I will work on a proof for you but for now I have chores to do.

Re: A few questions
Yes!
Thank you so much, Scientia!
How do I put this as a proof? Would it be rigorous enough? I think the man is also doing experimental geometry

How about the part that says two of the sides must be equal to what is given?

Hi Agnishom;
So you would like to have a way to express the fact that you must use 2 of the 3 sides given?

Re: A few questions
Hi;
It looks intuitively obvious but those are always the hardest to prove. I do not have anything firm either.
