Has there ever been a fun educational game?

where in the world is carmen sandiego?
Most of my history knowledge is from strategy vidya like AoE & civ.
when i was a kid i liked the rayman educational game. don't know if it's actually good though

10 times square root of 3 learn to simplify.
>>332667349
10root3 then fine, still correct
>>332666551
>There's no way to figure out the angles
lmao bruuhhhh
You already have a 90 degree angle there
the other two are easy with the length that you can easily figure out
>>332667349
you didnt simplify it
that's more complicated

Is /v/ intelligent enough to get the right answer?
>>332667606
It really depends on whether or not having less of a fruit changes its answer. If it didn't, why does the first question not have three apples in a pair?

that's not how variables work
>>332667606
16, shame theres 3 apples in 1 row
>>332667743
>>332667770
Idiots. Order of opperations is apple, banana, coconut.
>>332667727
is right

Even though the common core answer would be 14.

Theres one cocounut in the final line. 2 coconuts in the line above

He is stating that there is half a coconut and 3 bananas (Instead of 4) in the last line. Unless you already saw that, then you are correct

actually there is. cosin alpha = 10/20 gives you the angle between AC and AB

Star Wars: DroidWorks was some of the most fun I've had in an educational game. Assemble a droid from spare parts to specialize it for whatever mission you were going on, learn the basics of weight vs mass, moisture condensation, light, inertia, magnetism etc.
It even managed to have a couple parts that were genuinely terrifying, considering that your droid will always be basically a helpless non-combatant.

>>332665170
BA2 = AC2 + BC2
BA2 - AC2 = BC2
400 - 100 = BC2
BC2 = 300
BC = 17,32
C = 90°
Tan b = AC/BC = 10/17 = 30°
A = 180° - 90 - 30 = 60°
>>332667606

Full Apple = 10
One Banana = 1
One Coconut Half = 1
>>332668371
A then B, use sin and cos
>>332665170
I've been being lazy with it lately though.
>>332667504
Or make it more complicated, 20cos(30)
>>332668451
Tan is just as good you fucking cuck.
>>332668418
1 coconut half + 10 (full apple) + 3 bananas = 14

3x = 30
x = 10
x + 4y + 4y = 18
10 + 8y = 18
y = 1
4y - 2z = 2
4 - 2z = 2
z = 1
z + x + 3y = 1 + 10 + 3 = 14
It's retarded that they randomly group fruits together, and it's only solvable if we assume that grouped fruits are not distinct variables (ie, 2 coconuts in a group are not related to one coconut)

How do you figure out the angles in a triangle that isn't a right triangle? Supposing you have all sides given?
It's been 10 years since I had that in school
>>332668820
4 due to the fact that only manlets and women need to divide the number by 2.
>>332667606
16.
Apple (x)= 10
banana (y)= 2
coconut (z)=
Lets see if we can get a proof going:
3x = 30
x + 2y = 18
y - z = 2
z + x + y = w
(3x)/3 = 30/3
x = 10
10 + 2y = 18
2y = 18 - 10
2y = 8
y = 8/2
y = 4
4 - z = 2
-z = -2
z = 2
2 + 10 + 4 = 16.

>>332669113
Incorrect, since the number of bananas and coconuts varies, so the second equation is really
x + 4y + 4y = 18
The third is
4y - 2z = 2
and the final is
z + x + 3y = ?

apples = 10
bananas on rows 2 and 3 = 4 (4 bananas in each thing)
2 coconuts on row 3 = 2
1 coconut (1) + 1 apple (10) + 3 bananas (3) = 14

>>332669619
that fucking sucks man. redone.
>>332669113
14.
apple = x
3x = 30
x = 10
bunch of bananas = 4y
individual banana = y
x + 2(4y) = 18
x + 8y = 18
8y = 8
y = 1
half coconut = z
4y - 2z = 2
4 - 2z = 2
-2z = -2
z = 1
Final equation:
1z + 1x + 3y = n
1 + 10 + 3 = n
14 = n
>>332667504
That's simplifying actually. It's way easier to crunch 10 times square root of 3 since you can decently approximate the hard part or just memorize while it's worse with a root of 300, when not using a computer.
>>332670053
Wait, fuck, I thought you picked the blue box by the wording at the end.

It's 14 if you think you're being a clever faggot by changing the amount of bananas and coconuts and 16 if each fruit represents a particular # regardless of how many of each fruit is actually there.
I bet you thought you were real fucking clever and that you could tell everyone they were wrong no matter how they solved it.
They replaced it with a different version because it was too scary, apparently.

paradox games actually have quite an educational effect. But you can only fully utilize it if you are actually interested in history.
Civ is mostly garbage for actual learning though because its far too ficitional.
I remember there was some kind of game in which you had to take care of a skeleton in kind of a tamagotchi way, does anyone remember it's name? I remember playing it in spanish
>>332670610
>eu4
>historical
"Civilization" portrays the role environmental differences play in gaps in power and technology developing between human societies and how they are amplified by various positive feedback loops. Geographical history can be confusing for young people, but Civ presents the concept richly.

You can figure this out right?
>>332671440
1/3
3 situations
1st is crit, 2nd is not
2nd is crit, 1st is not
both are crits
>>332670878
to be fair, my post was about geography
>>332671440
50%
Because you already know one crits the only uncertainty is whether the other hits, It's similar t the Monty Hall problem I think.
>>332671440
It's simple trigonometry, the solution is undefined. Next?
>>332665170
This problem is impossible to solve. They didn't give enough information. Nice bait thread idiot.
>>332671440
>>332671696
I'm not sure which of these is right, but I know it's one of these
>>332671596
this
>>332671770
more subtly next time
>>332667606
Everyone is still wrong.
10+10+10 is 30, apple = 10
10+4+4= 18, banana = 4/1 (this will come into play later)
4 - sqrt (2)*sqrt (2) = 2 (because there is no operator between the two coconuts, we have to assume multplication)
So, sqrt (2) + 10 + 3/1 (which is the 3 bananas) = 13+sqrt(2) or approximately 14.414
>>332672467
how retarded must you be to not believe that
>>332666551
I guess common core math is a failure, afterall.
>>332672467
Can someone explain to me how the answer isn't 120?
im shit at math but at least im good at video games
>>332672867
5! means 5 factorial, which equals 120.
>>332672867
25-55+(85+65)
25-55+150
25-205
-180
>>332673258
I'm an idiot and didn't see the !. Thanks
>>332673397
>25-55+150
>25-205
-55+150 does not equal -205
Try again.
>>332673258
Except it doesn't, because that sentence doesn't end in a period, meaning if it's 5 factorial, it's an invalid sentence
Therefore, it's an exclamation mark
>>332673728
your sentences don't end with a period either you sissy boy
>>332673397
Also math should always be done from left to right if the denotions (or whatever the english term are) are equal So +/- should be from left to right
*|/ should be from left to right ^/sqrt should be from left to right
The ONLY exception is () denotion which means you should solve that first.
This means that after
25-55+150 you should first solve 25-55
