Q: In what Lucio Fucli movie, does a girl puke her intetines out?

On the right track, but it's actually simpler than that.
The right side image has the two triangles superimposed, showing the difference is in the hypotenuse (diagonal line) of the triangles!
The area of the two 'triangles' is actually the same, since it is made up of the same pieces. But because the lower 'triangle' has a 'hypotenuse' that is actually convex, this extra area is the equivalent of one square, which is why the right side shape has a missing square

Calculate the side length of the cube. (or basically 2 times x).

Q: In the game of chess, where does the term "checkmate" come from and what does it mean?

It means that you have cornered the King so that he is being attacked by pieces and there is no possible means for it to escape.

And where it comes from. It was an Australian term invented when two Aussie grand champions were playing each other when one made his move, then slowly realised that he'd won. The saying went something like this: "Check...........................long pause ............the penny drops .............Maaaaate".
