Been struggling with this for some time. Only hint my teacher gave me was "There is no trig in this".

Discussion Parents sent me this from their holiday. It's unsolvable, right?
It looks nonsensical to me. The notation doesn't even seem to be used correctly. It's even got an odd number of parentheses!

My 10 year old brother gave me this question and I can’t solve it. As a 17 year old it is embarrassing. But can any one of you solve it?
I’m trying it for days

If it's true is there any proof. I came upon this question when I was solving a problem which required using similarity of triangles.

Help: 16 - 18 (A-level) Geometry question
Saw this interesting and impossible geometry question in Instagram. The method I use is similar triangles. I let height of triangle (what the qn is asking) be x. The slighted line for the top left triangle is (x-6)² + 6² = x² - 12x + 72. Then, x-6/6 = √(x² - 12x + 72)/20. After that, I'm really stuck. I appreciate with the help, thanks.

Help: General someone please explain this
This might make me look like an idiot but bear in mind I haven’t done maths since grade 10 in high school and I don’t know whether im lacking in common sense or not, but I’d appreciate your help.
I’m doing an online practice assessment for a retail job and this question keeps confusing me. I thought that the answer would be $232.16 after 10% of discount but for some reason that’s not even an option and I had to press on all the answers to figure out which one was right.
Can someone please explain how they got $212.95?
Thanks!!

Help: Under 11 (Primary School) I am discussing this maths question with another Redditor. How do I explain why the answer is 200.6 and not 26?
Yes, maybe they're just joking with me but I would still like to know how to explain it clearly and concisely.
