TED-ED: Can you solve the three gods riddle? - Alex Gendler

The video explains a complex logic puzzle involving three alien overlords, Tee, Eff, and Arr, each with unique answering traits. The challenge is to identify each alien using three yes or no questions, despite a language barrier. The solution involves formulating questions that yield useful information regardless of the language ambiguity. By strategically asking questions, one can determine the identity of each alien and solve the puzzle.

What is the main challenge in the logic puzzle involving Tee, Eff, and Arr?

• Finding a way to communicate with Earth

• Determining which alien is which

• Understanding the alien language

• Identifying the correct artifacts

How can you ask a question to get useful information without knowing the meaning of 'ozo' and 'ulu'?

• By including the words 'ozo' and 'ulu' in the questions

• By using sign language

• By asking direct questions

• By asking questions in English

What is the purpose of asking a hypothetical question to Tee or Eff?

• To ensure the answer is always 'ozo' if the hypothetical is true

• To determine the meaning of 'ozo' and 'ulu'

• To identify Arr immediately

• To confuse the aliens

What is the first step in identifying which alien is not Arr?

• Ask all aliens the same question

• Ask the alien on the right a question

• Ask the alien in the middle a specific question

• Ask the alien on the left a question

Once you know an alien is not Arr, what should you ask next?

• Ask if the alien knows Earth

• Ask if the alien is Arr

• Ask if the alien is Eff

• Ask if the alien is Tee
