Homework Help: Geometry

Posted by Alessio on Tuesday, May 26, 2009 at 5:42pm.

Hi, one Professor gave me a very hard question, He has a little Disk (used in machines) that has a big hole in the middle, he measured the thickness every 90°, and he got the following measurements:

0.95 mm
1.02 mm
1.02 mm
0.96 mm

He tells me that with 3 of these measurements, I can know which is the maximum thickness and the minimum thickness even though he didn't measure the thickness everywhere, he wants to know the maximum and minimum thickness to know if the Disk has a big slope and may fail in the machine.

I would be really happy if you could help me with this one :)
