Rating: 4.6; Vote: 3
After many adventures in Wonderland, Alice has once again found herself in the court of the temperamental Queen of Hearts. She s about to pass through the garden undetected, when she overhears the king and queen arguing that 64 is the same as 65. Can Alice prove the queen wrong and escape unscathed? Alex Gendler shows how. John: I dare say you haven't had much practice. When I was your age, I used to believe six impossible things before breakfast.
What is truly sad is that he used the pen name Lewis Carroll in his fictional works to disassociate them with his work in the mathematical profession. Instead, the name of Charles Dodgson has almost been lost.

I have pending work. Work which pays me. I'm 26. Still I paused everything and took a pen paper and tried it out and arrived at the correct solution, only to feel smug on the fact that I know elementary geometry. Good day

Hey ted can you solve mine,
At a four-legged table, there is one grandma, two mothers, two daughters and a granddaughter. How many legs are under the table?
And as always great animation

I might not be as smart as Alice was to solve the riddle, but I would have been smart enough to just let the queen have her moment and think that she was right while I was getting out of there

Me: has to write a paper on Fibonacci sequences
Also me: watches the new TedEd video which happens to be about Fibonacci sequences
THE UNIVERSE HAS SPOKEN

This riddle reminds me of that Hershey chocolate optical illusion where you break one piece off and cut the chocolate and it looks like the same chocolate bar.

I m terrible at math, but my knowledge of shapes is way better. So I knew something wasn t fitting together at all based on the shapes, not really ok the numbers
reply

Is that the same thing with people on tiktok cut their chocolate diagonally, eat a block, and rearrange it and the chocolate looks the same like before?
reply

Ted-Ed: Sure enough, there's a miniscule gap between gap between the triangles and trapezoids.
Card Soldiers: cover up the gap when lying down in 1: 33
