@oxfordmathematics: What have the Pythagorean theorem and IKEA got in common? Watch Robin Wilson's full talk on the story of the Pythagorean theorem on the Oxford Mathematics YouTube Channel via the link in our bio. #puzzle #maths #stem #pythagoras
Can u show us the route again when in room format?

Looks like shortest swim and walk path between two river sides problem

0ft. It just makes a web and let it fly to it.

I really liked this. it's actually counterintuitive or at least not immediately obvious. thank you for making this video.

But you haven’t proved this must be the best? How does that follow?

This example is one of Georgy Polya's star examples in his classic text 'How to Solve It'.

What are the length of the spiders legs: as corners can be cut away. Can the Spider spit a Web first, as to pull back, affix, then crawl along?
What is the size and shape of the fly: as Fruit verses Dragonfly have inches in difference, such that: what is the size and type of spider: can it Jump, is it orbee, or is it a hunter as the size and body shapes change?
If Riddles are stupid questions in poetic form, then Puzzles are a demand for idiotic work of information.
Yes, I still do them when asked, and I knew the solution through the idiom... Don't Judge me!

I made the assumption spiders spin webs through the air

Doesn't it mean there are multiple ways you can open this room into 2D and check all possibities to find the shortest?

This is why I always use the “two dimensional only” route setting on google maps. Don’t have time to waste!

I think the solution to this puzzle is wrong you can't open up the room when you open up the room then the there's a horizontal displacement and then you can get the Pythagorean efficiency but this is not a openable room you can't just open up the box just like that that's not part of the room if not what put it in the box you can say that it is a three-dimensional surface.

Why do we flatten room because of a spider and a fly?
