So, the way to take someone's pulse features holding your fingers on a point, and counting the pulse beats, while also observing a second hand.

Anyone else find this pretty much impossible? I can't track a number count while also waiting for another number.

LOL. This problem is insane. It's just too messy to simplify the pieces down, so it's probably going to take the entire page, and have a terrible awful looking solution.

I'm using triangles and stars to symbolize gigantic chunks of the problem instead of rewriting them four times.

Not sure I'm supposed to use a calculator either, but I can't possibly do anything with this figure without one.

An hour on this problem, still not quite done. It's worth five points, and I think the best I'll get on it is... two? D:

And now it just ended with a square root of a negative number.

I give up. I know it's wrong, I have no idea of where to find the error, and I'm not going to even try.
