Yes, x = a + b ✅ A simple visual proof would be to fold it along the lines AE and AF, then points D & B meet on EF. Mathematically, it can be easily proven by moving △ABE as shown below. Then △EAF and △E'AF are congruent. Hence proving: x = a + b

The complexity of this problem is surely being underestimated. For those interested in the answer, its possible but numbers are huge.

An interesting way to check if the given alphabet is vowel using bit manipulation. Have a look if you understand how it works !

Also, I discovered a fascinating phenomenon for the current years (2022-2025), they're Harshad years. To begin, Harshad number is a number divisible by sum of its digits. E.g. 2023 is divisible by 2+0+2+3 ie 7. But this phenomenon (2+ consecutive Harshad years) is so rare that it last happened 1000+ years back for 1014-1017. And will next happen after 1000+ years in 3030-3033.

Trigonometrically, tangent of 2025° is 1. Obviously, happens 180 years apart. And since, 2025 = 27² + 36² Hence, 2025 can be represented as hypotenuse of a right triangle with integral sides. Last such year was 1681 ( = 9² + 40²), Next such year will be 2809 ( = 28² + 45²).

2025 is a centered octagonal number. Such numbers are represent an octagon with a dot in the center with surrounding dots in successive octagonal layers. Last such year was 1849, Next such year will be 2209.

As per Nicomachus' theorem: 1³ + 2³ + ... + n³ = (1 + 2 + ... + n)² Hence, the previous fact can also be stated as 2025 being square of a triangular number. 2025 = (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9)²

Exterior angle of triangle = sum of opposite interior angles Hence, the other two angles in triangle including A are "C+D" and "B+E" as shown below. ⇒ A + B + C + D + E = 180° ✅
