[Salad Dodger]

Half the base times the height?

 

[Salad Dodger]

Doesnt matter. Draw it any way up, as you have the length of the 3 sides.

By the way, don't listen to me - I barely scraped O level maths, and that was 40 years ago......

 

[Archeress]

Yup, it's a straight line. The two short sides add up to the length of the long side. Cannot be a triangle.

A teacher of mathematics used an unconventional method to measure a 15-minute time limit for a test. He just used 7 and 11-minutehourglasses. During the whole time he turned sandglasses only 3 times (turning both hourglasses at once count as one flip).
Explain how the teacher measured 15 minutes
