Iggy was playing “Dragon Slayer” on the screen. On his quest for the Holy Grail, Sir Lancelot mounted on his white charger was nearing the bridge of the Grand Dragon who posed a riddle, and the eerie scream of the Knight who answered incorrectly as he was hurled into the dark abyss with his steed could be heard fading away.<\/p>\n
The Grand Dragon breathed fire and spoke in a hollow, deep voice: \u201cAnswer my riddle Knight or perish in the abyss.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPose your riddle, Grand Dragon and be quick about it,\u201d replied Sir Lancelot defiantly.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs you wish, bold Knight: The generators of a right triangle are the numbers of the Beast and of Man. The area will be a number that attracts all vibrations from zero to nine. What is the number my brave Knight?\u201d boomed the Grand Dragon.<\/p>\n
Iggy put the game on hold to be able to work out the answer to the riddle, which puzzled him no end. He called his friend Leonard to ask what a triangle generator was, which Leonard quickly explained.<\/p>\n
With a calculator, Iggy was able to work out the answer fairly rapidly, which he entered for the Grand Dragon\u2019s approval.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou may cross the bridge Knight,\u201d boomed the Grand Dragon, \u201cand go in peace.\u201d<\/p>\n
Can you work out the area of the triangle?<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\nShare this:<\/h3>
