math
6=sqrt(36)
=[sqrt(-9)]*[sqrt(-4)
=(3i)*(2i)
=6*i^2
=-6
1=2
Proof :
Let X=X
Squaring both sides
X2=X2
Sub. X2 from both sides
X2-X2=X2-X2
X(X-X)=(X+X)(X-X)
Cancel (X-X) from both sides
X=X+X
X=2X
1=2
OK Proved
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) 2+2=5
Proof :
Let -20 = -20
therefore
16-36=25-45
add 81/4 both hand side
(4)2 -2(4)(9/2)+(9/2)2 =(5)2 -2(5)(9/2)+(9/2)2
its (a+b)2 Formula
Taking sq. root both hand sides
now its
4+9/2=5+9/2
cancel 9/2 from both side
its become 4=5
which is
2+2=5
OK Proved

Solve it:
At present the mother is 21 years older than her son.
After 6 years, the age of the mother will be 5 times the age of the son.
QUESTION: Where is the father now?
See the result below

You can find the answer ...

SOLUTION:
Today:
the son is X years old
and the mother is Y years old:
X+21=Y
In 6 years:
5(X+6)=Y+6
-------------------------------------------------
5X+30 = X+21+6
4X = -3
X = -3/4
The son is -3/4 years old. That means -9 months.
SO, THE FATHER IS ON TOP OF HER ....
Prove this wrong, 3 equals 2.
1 = 1
subtract 7 from both sides
1-7 = 1-7
-6 = -6
this can also be written as
9 - 15 = 4 - 10
add 25/4 to both sides
9 - 15 + 25/4 = 4 -10 + 25/4
(3)^2 -2(3)(5/2) + (5/2)^2 = (2)^2 - 2(2)(5/2) + (5/2)^2
we know that (a-b)^2 = a^2 -2ab + b^2
(3-5/2)^2 = (2-5/2)^2
take sqrt of both sides
3 - 5/2 = 2 - 5/2
add 5/2 to both sides and we get
3 =2

An IQ Test
note: Do as instructions r given . and Don't get shyyyyyyy
Here is a very simple little test comprising of four questions to
determine the level of your intellect. Your replies must be spontaneous and
immediate, with no deliberating or wasting time. And no cheating.
Marks,set....GO!!!
(1)
You are competing in a race, and overtake the runner lying in second
place. In which position are you now?
Scroll down....
Answer:
If you answered that you're now coming first then you're completely
wrong. You overtook the second runner and took their place, therefore you're coming second.
For the next question try not to be so dim.
2. If you overtake the last runner, what position are you now in?
Scroll down.....
Answer:
If you answered second-last, once again you're completely wrong. Think about it...How can you
over take the person coming last? If you're behind
them then they can't be last.
The answer is impossible!!
It would appear that thinking is not one of your strong points. You would make a good weak
link!!!
Anyway, here's another to try, don't take any notes or use a calculator,
and remember your replies must be instantaneous. Take heart!! (that was the dictionary's
suggestion)
3. Take 1000. Add 40.
Add another 1000.
Add 30.
1000 again.
Plus 20.
Plus 1000.
And plus 10.
What is the total?
scroll down....
Answer:
5000??? Wrong again!!!!
The correct answer is 4100. Try again with a good calculator.
Today is clearly not your day!! Although you should manage to get the
last question right...
4: Marie's father has five daughters:
1. Chacha
2. Cheche
3. Chichi
4. Chocho
5. ????
Question: What is the fifth daughter's name?
Think quickly...you'll find the answer below...
scroll down......
Answer:
Chuchu??? WRONG!!!!!
It's obviously Marie!!! Read the question properly!!!!!

bake. Thirty minutes before the ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix
with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.
To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent,
and run through a regular cycle. The Coke will help loosen grease stains.
It will also clean road haze from your windshield!
In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the truck to remove blood from
the highway after a car accident.
Now this just FREAKS me out:
There was a competition in Delhi University: "Who can drink the most Coke?". The winner drank 8
bottles and died on the spot because he had too much carbon dioxide in the blood and not enough
oxygen. YIKES!
If you put a broken tooth in a bottle of Pepsi, in 10 days it will fully dissolve!

A small truth to make our Lifes 100%.......
If A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Is equal to 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26
Then H+A+R+D+W+O+R+K = 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98% only
K+N+O+W+L+E+D+G+E = 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96% only
L+O+V+E=12+15+22+5=54
L+U+C+K = 12+21+3+11 = 47% (don't most of us think this is most important???)
Then what makes 100% Is it Money? ..... No!!!!! Leadership? ...... NO!!!!
Every problem has a solution, only if we perhaps change our attitude.
To go to the top, to that 100%
what we really need to go further..... a bit more. ......
A+T+T+I+T+U+D+E = 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
It is OUR ATTITUDE towards Life and Work that makes OUR Life 100%
Don't you think so?!?!?!?!

Why do golf balls have dimples?
Why do golf balls have dimples? If you were going to design an object with a wonderful
aerodynamic shape, you would never design a ball. Because a ball is round, air will flow smoothly
around the front half of the ball when it's in flight. However, as the air flows behind the ball
it causes turbulence, which causes drag and slows the ball down. A slower ball means a shorter
flight. To be just a bit more scientific, when the air pressure in front of the ball is
significantly higher than the air pressure behind the ball, drag occurs. A solution to the
problems of an aerodynamic ball would be to somehow increase the pressure behind the ball so it
approximates the pressure in front of the ball. Because of the dimples in a golf ball, air
flowing around the ball is less turbulent, because each dimple creates a smaller area for the
turbulence and there is much less drag. To put it simply, dimples in a golf ball greatly reduce
drag and the ball flies farther. In fact in some studies, a dimpled ball flew four times as far
as a smooth ball. If you'd like to prove this theory to yourself, it's quite simple. Take a golf
ball and sand it down until it's perfectly smooth. Then tee off and see how far the ball travels.
Then tee off again with a regular ball and see how much farther it goes.
