The response from another user, octohydra, indicates that attachments may take time to be approved, suggesting that TeX formatting is preferred for clarity in such discussions.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of elliptical geometry
  • Familiarity with TeX typesetting
  • Basic knowledge of mathematical problem-solving techniques
  • Experience with forum etiquette and posting guidelines
NEXT STEPS
  • Research elliptical geometry and its applications
  • Learn how to effectively use TeX for mathematical expressions
  • Explore problem-solving strategies for geometric problems
  • Review forum guidelines for posting mathematical queries
USEFUL FOR

Students, mathematicians, and educators interested in geometric problems, as well as forum users seeking to improve their posting and problem presentation skills.

The problem is formally attached in the PDF. I did not see it fit to post my problem on the forum itself (sorry).

Any assistance is appreciated.

Thanks.

hey octohydra, welcome to PF, so you know it usually takes a while for attachments to clear
 
That is fine by me. I felt that this was the best way I could present the problem even if TeX is native to the forum.
