You are given an empty 10x10 grid. You are allowed to paint some of its cells as walls (black), while the remaining cells stay empty (white). A robot is programmed to start in the top-left corner of the grid and visit the other three corners using the shortest path. All three corners must be reac...
You are the principal of a primary school in HK. Schools are resuming soon, and you have to ensure that your school have enough alcohol. Each of the 30 classrooms should have a bottle containing 500mL alcohol, and the staff room should have 2 bottles of 500mL of alcohol.

A body has been found at the Green Estates Fairway. Next to the body was a bloody golf club which was later confirmed by the medical examiner to be the murder weapon. Thankfully, only ten men besides the victim had been golfing that day. The police interviewed each man and asked:

In a triangle, three identical squares of side lengths 2.8 share a common vertex and are each touching two sides of the triangle. If one of the angles in the triangle is 75 degrees and is opposed to a side of 10.8, then what’s the area of the triangle?

Answer need to contain explanation.

just realized that "run one fraud each (7)" was a schrodinger clue, but it's not a very good one as both answers have the same number of letters, and even having all but one letter the same (scarper vs scamper)
and... the definition and wordplay never switch sides
To the close-voters: you might want to check how tricky this puzzle is, and how many neat "aha" steps are involved in the solution, before thinking it's a straightforward textbook problem rather than an olympiad-style geometry puzzle. — Rand al'Thor13 secs ago
cc @BeastlyGerbil since I saw you in the review queue :-)
@Randal'Thor definitely agree, but looking at the question, I could imagine it in one of my maths textbooks which is why I voted close. It was def borderline though, and my opinion is certainly not necessarily the right one, but thats the good thing about the review queue :)
CCCC hint 2: … and they're not the four you think they are.
@AlwaysConfused It can have that effect. Try to learn something new. YouTube is good for that, as are specialized sites/apps like those that teach computer programming or natural languages.
That can help with the blues. (Not with clinical depression. If you have that, seek medical attention.)
Although the archive hasn't been updated in basically a year now, but then thats a lot of work for anyone! Still good to see some examples of past clues tho :)
@AlwaysConfused the current C4 will always be starred on the right side of the chat (if you're using a computer that is, bit more difficult to see on phone)
@Sid surely 'initially' has to be important too. But don't know which side to take initials from and how many before there's a different indicator. Could be 'GMC' but then again could simply be 'I'
Then again cryptic clues are definitely not my strong point though, I struggle with the simpler ones so probably nowhere near :P
I have some raven test that I couldn't find the answers
Hope you can find the answers.
