bob012345 replied to the thread I Geometry problem of interest with a 3-4-5 triangle.It looks off but I computed the coordinates and checked the edge lengths which are ##2-√2##. -
bob012345 replied to the thread I Geometry problem of interest with a 3-4-5 triangle.Finally, I think you meant this.

bob012345 replied to the thread I Geometry problem of interest with a 3-4-5 triangle.For the irregular octagon, there are two squares inside it but they are not equal. The ratio of areas is 1.125.

@bob012345 ok, but try making the ratio of horizontal and vertical lines with spacing 1,root 2,1 and connecting the points on the sides... -
bob012345 replied to the thread I Geometry problem of interest with a 3-4-5 triangle.Here is a simple drawing of the regular octagon within the square. If the square has corners at (±1,±1), the outside points are root(2)...

bob012345 replied to the thread I Geometry problem of interest with a 3-4-5 triangle.I was looking at how to make a regular octagon in the spirit of the OP but it’s difficult to construct the ratio you mentioned without...

Oh I see. The diagram is perfectly four-fold symmetrical - but it is not eight-fold symmetrical. And the 37/53 is reflected in the two...

From symmetry, it is readily seen that the sides come in 4 identical pairs. The angle between the two sides in each pair is not 135...

bob012345 replied to the thread I Geometry problem of interest with a 3-4-5 triangle.The edges are the same lengths but parallel edges are skewed wrt each other, they are parallelograms not rectangles.

bob012345 replied to the thread Dune: Prophecy, what to read for additional story context?.Technically, it’s two miniseries but I meant both taken together as a whole story.

bob012345 replied to the thread Dune: Prophecy, what to read for additional story context?.I thought the miniseries with Alec Newman and James McAvoy was the best. It’s length lets one really soak in the Dune universe.
