Not quite. The answer would be 150. Because the new area added each time is ½ of the previous it will go towards an infinite small area.It's about mathematical (calculus) "limits" (lim), not sure the english word for it. ;) |

yes and no. technically you'd never reach the answer but it can never be bigger then 150 so 'infinitly' *or whatever* big is wrong. |

yeah, i thought of that after answering it...
so the answer isn't 150 tho, is it? its infinitly close to 150, but never there...
like that paradox where if you are going from point A to point B, you go half the distance, then another half, and another half, and again and again, but there's always another half, so you never really get there. stupid paradoxes |

look above his post. :p there's mathematical proof for that kind of problems. |

yes, there is mathematical proof, but what im saying is, can you say the answer is 150? or would you have to say 149.9999999999999999... |

eh forgive me but arent you just saying it indeed will be infinitly close to 150? (149.9999999999999999999999/) :conf:
i'll ask my math teacher :p .. in holiday :D
*edit* they asked for cm^2's though.. i'd say 149.99999999999999999999999999999999999 = 150 though.. |

I know so many profesors who would roar in anger if they heard this. |

those unfolded patterns are stupid, i could do the cubes, but a 30+ sided object? please... |
I know. They were hard. I had to guess on all of them. I couldn't just sit and stare at it and tilt my head around trying to figure this out... |

Me too, and I'm not even a professor! I'd say 150 only because _after_ you take infinity into consideration, the final value is no longer 149.9999999...; it really is 150. |
