Chio-chan no Tsuugakuro 12
So I was rewatching Chio-chan no Tsuugakuro, and I got completely nerd-sniped by this geometry problem.
I don’t think my solution is the most elegant, but here it is.
I have made the assumption that the line labelled “3” is parallel to the line labelled “A”. I will also make the notational change to use lowercase “a” instead of uppercase “A” to represent the required length.
Label the points and angles as follows.
By congruence, \( \alpha = \alpha’ \).
Considering \(\triangle CBD\), \(\alpha + \beta + \gamma + \delta = \pi \); considering straight line HBG, \(\alpha’ + \beta + \gamma’ + \delta = \pi \). Therefore \(\gamma = \gamma’\).
Lengths \(CA\) and \(AD\) are found by Pythagoras’ Theorem, and lengths \(BF\) and \(FG\) by congruence.
Note that \(\triangle HBA \sim \triangle HGJ\), so
\[\frac{b}{b+\sqrt{7}+\sqrt{40}} = \frac{3}{a}\]which gives
\[a = \frac{3}{b} \left(b+\sqrt{40}+\sqrt{7}\right). \tag{1}\]Consider \(\triangle HBA\), we have
\[\cos(\beta+\gamma) = \frac{3}{b},\]so
\[\cos\beta\cos\gamma - \sin\beta\sin\gamma = \frac3b.\]The sines and cosines of \(\beta\) and \(\gamma\) can be obtained by considering \(\triangle ABC\) and \(\triangle ABD\):
\[\frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{40}}{7} - \frac{\sqrt{7}}{4} \cdot \frac{3}{7} = \frac{3}{b}\]which rearranges to give
\[\frac{3 \left( \sqrt{40}-\sqrt{7} \right)}{28} = \frac3b \tag{2}\]and
\[b = \frac{28\left(\sqrt{40}+\sqrt{7}\right)}{33}. \tag{3}\]Substitute (2) and (3) into (1), we get
\[a = \frac{3 \left( \sqrt{40}-\sqrt{7} \right)}{28} \cdot \frac{61\left(\sqrt{40}+\sqrt{7}\right)}{33} = \frac{183}{28}.\] -

Can’t see much detail but where are white’s pawns?

WTF you got it right last episode!!

Koi wa Futago de Warikirenai - 11
They fixed the starting position!
We have a Ruy Lopez. Nice, looks like they actually looked it up.
Berlin Defence. Having high hopes now…
Uhh… Girl, that’s not how you castle…

Talk about having a chess-themed episode, then completing fucking up every opening position smh
Can’t they just open lichess.org or chess.com or Wikipedia or Google Images and just look at it while drawing?
Or read this fucking book that clearly has the queen on the d file and king on the e file?
OK this is actually plausible, if white could bait black to take the knight, then a mad queen could have been possible at some point.

The classic “king on d file” again…

Youjitsu S3 11
I’ve delayed watching this because I expected it to be bad…
Here we see white playing 3. d3
How did white’s light-squared bishop get to b5?
Here it says white plays d3 on move 7? What’s going on??
Also what’s with the bottom-to-top, right-to-left notation? LOL.

Board rotated by 90 degrees, and white’s king and queen are swapped.
