The pictures, who lived in these places and times, had however observed that not all were as dangerous as they could look like it. The monstrosity of a monster depended directly on its size, but the older ones were not necessarily the most to fear. This is how, by formulas whose secrecy was lost, the druids of these times had managed to determine that their dangerousness could calculate itself by taking away from their measure (in feet) the square of the sum of its figures. Thus, a 32 -foot monster had a danger equal to 32 &#8211; (3+2) \u00b2 = 32 &#8211; 25 = 7. You will note that, according to this rule, there is sometimes a negative result: a 25 feet monster has a danger equal to 25 &#8211; (2+5) \u00b2 = 25 &#8211; 49 = \u221224. The pictures ignored the negative numbers at that time, but it was unimportant because these monsters were completely harmless. To this must be added that, Manannan Thank you, no monster is no longer a hundred feet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph \">But of all the monsters in the region, that of Loch Ness was undoubtedly the most terrifying! He was not only the most dangerous of everyone, but also the most dangerous that could ever exist.

Thus, the length of the Loch Ness monster necessarily has a figure of the units equal to 0, that is to say that it is a multiple of 10. If we note its number of tens, its monstrosity is equal to 10d-d\u00b2. When D increases a unit (switching to D + 1), the number 10d increases by 10 (because 10 (D + 1) = 10d + 10), while the square increases by 2D + 1 (because (D + 1) \u00b2 = D\u00b2 + 2D + 1). Thus, as long as 2D + 1 is smaller than 10, the dangerousness of the monster increases when D increases a unit. 2D + 1 becomes larger than 10 when D = 5 (it is then worth 2 \u00d7 5 + 1 = 11). The Loch Ness monster therefore measures 50 feet and has a danger equal to 50 &#8211; 5\u00b2 = 25.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph \"><strong>Find the previous puzzles by clicking here<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/teknomers.com\/en\">Tm-En-1<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The legends say that he once lived, in the northern and eastern lochings of Scotland, large and terrible aquatic monsters.
