I gotta say, this taxicab number 1729 is like, super intriguing! I mean, who wouldn't wanna crack some mind-bending puzzles and uncover hidden secrets? It's like, imagine being part of a secret society that only solves these crazy problems . The fact that the answer to finding the smallest number expressible as a pair of squares in two different ways is 50 is just wild! I'm all about it , and I need more info on those wooden strips and triangle puzzles ASAP . And that final product calculation? Mind blown ! Whoever solves these puzzles is gonna be like, totally legendary
I'm intrigued by this "taxicab number" business . I mean, who wouldn't want to crack a puzzle that's been bugging mathematicians for centuries? But what really gets me is how these puzzles seem to defy logic at times - like the triangle thingy . You gotta give it up for persistence and critical thinking skills. Still, there are some weird inconsistencies in these problems... I mean, 12 being the product of two pairs seems legit, but those other products feel kinda forced . Maybe I'm just not clever enough to see the logic, though .
I think its pretty cool how they're using this random year 1729 to create these crazy math problems lol . Like, who even thought to make puzzles based on a taxicab number from that far back in history? I'm already thinking of ways to solve the triangle puzzle... anyone got some ideas? The sum of squares puzzle was way easier than I expected though .
im loving these old-school math puzzles lol i mean, who knew taxicab numbers could be so cool? but seriously though, solving this first puzzle was actually way harder than it seemed... i thought for like an hour trying to find that pair of squares sum . and the second one is just too clever - using that 7cm strip as a non-triangular piece is pure genius . however, the third one kinda gives me vibes of a classic lateral thinking puzzle ... it's gonna take some serious brain-twisting to figure out which two pairs multiply to 12 .
still cant believe china's air quality is getting worse, china just hit its worst air quality in decades , like how math puzzle enthusiasts care about numbers from 1729...
