Participants are encouraged to share what they have attempted rather than seeking direct solutions. The thread is deemed to potentially violate forum rules regarding academic dishonesty, leading to its closure. Users are advised to reach out to moderators for clarification on the rules of the competition. Overall, the focus is on promoting personal accountability in academic work.

Solutions are due by Friday, October 24 at 2pm.

The whole point of homework is that you attempt it yourself. If you get stuck then you can post a question about the problems you are having and what you have already done, but as it stands you literally took a picture of your assignment in class and posted it on MHB (and I imagine several other math help websites, but that is not relevant) waiting for someone to complete it for you, and I believe I speak for everyone here when I say I have no sympathy for that. In fact, it is probably against the forum rules, and if it isn't, it should be.

In short, what have you tried?​

Seemingly by some mathematical coincidence, a hexagon of sides 2,2,7,7, 11, and 11 can be inscribed in a circle of radius 7. The other day I saw a math problem on line, which they said came from a Polish Olympiad, where you compute the length x of the 3rd side which is the same as the radius, so that the sides of length 2,x, and 11 are inscribed on the arc of a semi-circle. The law of cosines applied twice gives the answer for x of exactly 7, but the arithmetic is so complex that the...
