Would you be able to email the answer to this one? Think I got it…
Based on geometry, not funny. In some sense, ‘many’ configurations of the 3 lines should work….
is it funny or based on geometry

can you email me the answer for this one?
I’ll email you.
how?
they don’t all have to be diameters.
This is pretty obvious, just open up paint if you have trouble visualizing it. I don’t think all of the lines have to be diameters.
