G’day ‘freemathhelp’ forum
I was hoping someone might be able to help me out dividing an irregular shape I’m working with.
The shape I’m working with is divided into 2 areas (A and B), and I’m trying to find the horizontal line that divides each of those areas (L1 and L2) and the combination of both (L3), such that an equal portion of the area is visible on both sides of the line (hopefully my diagram will correct for my terrible explanation).
I couldn't get the attachment feature on this forum to work but I've uploaded to speedyshare.com at the following link; http://speedy.sh/psZqe/Shape1.png
The measurements are not perfect so I’m really trying to work out just how to do it at this stage
I’m usually not too bad at this kind of stuff so it’s immensely frustrating that I can’t see how to work it out, it seems deceptively simple to me.
Any thoughts on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.
