OK I went thru this 3 time and might still have some error ... otherwise typos maybe
I don't think this could be solved by just observation
 
Mathematics news on Phys.org
looks ok to me
 
mahalo

I am freezing to death in this library:(
 
Then put on some clothes!
 
We don't do that here?
Not much anyway
 
Here is a little puzzle from the book 100 Geometric Games by Pierre Berloquin. The side of a small square is one meter long and the side of a larger square one and a half meters long. One vertex of the large square is at the center of the small square. The side of the large square cuts two sides of the small square into one- third parts and two-thirds parts. What is the area where the squares overlap?
