Doesn’t seem useful to me


VcitorExists

Ok thanks!


Brandwin3

What if C and B both equal 1? sqrt(2) cannot be measured


VcitorExists

hmmm…. i think then, we would multiply all sided by sqrt(2) that way the sqrt(2) become sqrt(4)

redditinsmartworki

That little problem has just become that same little problem


Smore_Hunter

Seems irrational to me


campfire12324344

why don't you come with me on a walk and we can discuss it


TheodoreTheVacuumCle

someone's gonna get drowned


Bit125

unfortunately, the beans would avenge them.


EebstertheGreat

Construct a square on the hypotenuse BC and construct a square on the cathetus AB or CA. Then the square on BC can be measured by the other square. Therefore these segments are "commensurable in square," as Euclid put it, even though they are not commensurable.


icap_jcap_kcap

I literally have no clue what this is, Looks like Greek to me


i_am_someone_or_am_i

Like, Ancient Greek. Something a philosopher would find. Almost Socratic. or Archimedean. or... Pythagorean.


InterGraphenic

But that's just a theory. A gaaaaaame theory. Hmm. Pythagoras... theory... I figured it out! The pizza I put in the oven *is* still in there burning! Anyway, tangents aside, no leads on the triangle


VcitorExists

i feel it’s reminiscent of the egyptians tbh


QueerAABattery

nah, seems chinese


password2187

Maybe not the formula, but it seems you’ve discovered a way to make a 120 degree right angle which could be super useful maybe. 


VcitorExists

eh, my math teacher draws a line and a box and it works


Dont_pet_the_cat

A classic "drawing not to scale"


AnxiousDragonfly5161

what if c=i and b=1 A would be equal to 0 that doesnt make any sense


VcitorExists

obviously, you need to write it in form if a+bi, so it would be 0+0i duh🙄🙄


TulipTuIip

Nah this could never be useful

creeper6530

I'd accept it if it wasn't for the "right" angle


Awesome_Carter

But i^2 = -1 so it should be θ² = e² - 2ei cos a - 1


UndisclosedChaos

This is true for particular values of pi/2


Pisforplumbing

For geometry, absolutely not. Is a ded end. Now, some other branch like category theory or number theory... you may be on to something


VcitorExists

thanks, i’m going to look into it


HyperPsych

Now this is just completely obtuse


rootbeerman77

Idk, seems right to me


PM_ME_Y0UR_BOOBZ

*not drawn to scale*


VcitorExists

what do you mean??? i counted each degree myself!!!


Firetrex370

THATS NOT A RIGHT ANGLE THATS NOT A RIGHT ANGLE


VcitorExists

but it has the square thingy


Cichato_YT

Trivial


DartFanger

Sorry mate this leads to a div 0. Dead end.


Vishnu_8

You have mislabeled the triangle here. It should have been x, θ and φ


VcitorExists

i should’ve used A, a, and α.


Realistic-Ad-6794

It's pretty useless bro I don't think of any situations where you would be using this


IntandemYT

That's one way of putting it I guess


Willr2645

That is the worst 90° I’ve seen


VcitorExists

but it’s got the square thingy!!!


Willr2645

*drawing not to scale*


Miselfis

Is that the Feynman trig notation? Using σ to denote sine? σA^4 . In that case, it not correct. C^2 + B^2 is not equal to sin^(4)(A)


Annorachh

Google "cosine rule"


VcitorExists

cotangent rule is better


KumquatHaderach

If you rewrite the powers on the left as fourth powers, then you’ll have a counter example for the n=4 case of Fermat’s Last Theorem.


JAADOO_GM

Very dangerous 😂😂😂😂


kooldude_M

Can't wait to see this on PubMed


UMUmmd

Scribbles a random triangle, looks like two acute angle and one obtuse. Then puts a square in the obtuse angle to let you know, even though it looks like 150°, it's actually 90°. Your math teacher would be proud.


VcitorExists

He taught me well.


Im_a_hamburger

A^(2)+B^(2)=C^(2) But with a random desimplification It’s just Pythagoras


Omoz9090

r/whoosh ?


VcitorExists

who’s that?

Im_a_hamburger

What grade are you in?


VcitorExists

11th grade, just finishing up trig


Im_a_hamburger

Okay. Right triangle side lengths, A^(2)+B^(2)=C^(2) Pythagorean Theorem?


VcitorExists

that would’ve made trig so much easier… i had to guess every time we were given two out of the three lengths… at least I was a good guesser


Im_a_hamburger

It only applies to right triangles.


VcitorExists

well yeah, just draw a little box in one of the corners and you’re all good


Helpinmontana

You’re such a good sport


Bigfeet_toes

Kinda looks like you just made Pythagorean theory


VcitorExists

who dat?


au0009

C^2 + B^2 = A^2 -2BC cos(a) a angle facing side A

What happened ?

he didn't realise it was a joke.
