Riddles, teasers and such things ...
Well, might be a little childish, but took me ages to get it :)
Well, my friend got it, not me ... It is nowhere in the building, but twice in each room. What is it? |

I bend before you :o I am a programmer, I would probably never think about that this way .... :) |

Is it some older English btw.? Reminds me of Lord of the Rings, one of the books I've red in original language :) |

... joking ... :skull-big |

I wish i can understand how to read that??!!! May you explain to me what is 'Twas? 'Twill? e'er? 'tis? Have you wrote a story before Phantom? I would love to read it :) :p |

Lonliness? |
Might be a bit too easy...

I think you forgot to put the color of the bear in the story
|
Quote:
Assuming that the man made a triangle from his home and back again (south-east-north) this route can only be made in the north pole. So I guess the bear was a polar bear and the color is white. Right? |

This was written back in the 18th century. I'm lit major and this was brought up in just about every class I took. It's not loneliness - the answer will explain why Phantom got the answer to Fibonacci's riddle. ;) Twas = It was Twill = It will E'er = ever Tis = It is O'er = Over |
Here is an ancient one..
there is a creature in the world that walks on four legs in the morning. At Noon the creature walks on two legs but as night arrives the creature walks on three legs. What is the creature? (its a pretty easy onefor history or mythology buffs, or if you have ever played dungeons and dragons as its pretty common) |

Well could try out another one while I'm at it but this might be a bit harder. :p Quote:

It would seem to me that if you were flying into a heavy wind and your forward thrust was LESS than the wind heading toward you, and your aeilerons were down to catch the wind... Your plane would appear to be flying backwards as the wind pushed with a greater force. Once again.. may not be the answer after all a wind that strong might crash the plane.. and of course anyone foolish enough to be standing on the ground to watch such an event would probably be blown away |
I'll never be a riddle solver :)
I was thinking about the bear mystery and it was just complete nonsense for me. And it is so logical and easy :skull-tic :rolleyes: Ok, I'll stay with my Sudoku :skull-big Only answer I know is to Ragman ancient one and only because I knew that already :) |

Earth's rotation creates different kind of wind formations in the higher layers of atmosphere and the wind speed on certain areas can be always around 200mph because of this. Actually these winds are generally used by larger airplanes because if you need to go over Atlantic Ocean for example you save plenty of fuel by having this kind of powerful wind pushing your plane forward. |

Let's say we have two equal nonzero numbers x and y x = y => x² = x² => (Subtract y² from both sides obtain) x² - y² = xy - y² => (Dividing by (x-y) obtain) x + y = y => (Since x = y) 2 y = y => (Dividing by y obtain) 2 = 1 (since we started with x and y nonzero) Subtracting 1 from both sides, 1 = 0 :eek: Is that possible? |
Quote:
So hope the answer is, this x² - y² = xy - y² => (Dividing by (x-y) obtain) is not allowed operation? |
