what do you think? https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/may/06/pythagoras-theorem-proof-new-orleans-teens
my theory is that one on the right needs to go on a diet, look at how some of her hair is caught under the fat rolls on her neck.repulsive.
>>16162512Assuming that c is given, a and b would have to be determined first. Since x and z are expressed by a chain of expressions containing (a,b,c), this raises the question how you could find the values for (a,b) without relying on pythagoras's theorem in the first place. Ex ante, there is no way for you to know what the precise values for (a,b) are on which the values for (x,z) depend.
>>16162514rather both
>>16162597it's a proof for pytha. You don't need to know values. What you need to see is 2 ab/c^2 = sin 2 a AND 2 ab / (a^2 + b^2) .Hats off to the two young ladies.
>>16162645>it's a proof for pytha.No, it isn't. Calculating a series that expresses the hypothenuse and the adjacent based on the exact same geometric figure just inscribed does not solve the issue.>2 ab/c^2 = sin 2 a AND 2 ab / (a^2 + b^2) The sinus function, right. The sinus function that does not, in any way, already presume Pythagoras's theorem to be proven. We can simply assume things to be true while we're trying to prove them. Makes sense.
>>16162512>just a convering pythagoras series>>16162645It's like saying a+b=c because 1/2(a+b)=1/2c
>>16162503Good for them and I hope the chuds seethe hard as they achieve nothing with their miserable existence
>>16162512When I first heard what they did, I cooked this proof up in a couple of minutes.
>>16162512is there a link to their full argument/demonstration written out
>>16162743no, because they know the whole story would collapse if it was opened up to critical examination. and that's probably fine. it's not the girls' fault that this has reached such ridiculous lengths, it's academia's and the media's.
>>16162512i'm dumb but don't you have to assume that b>a for it to converge
>>16162736Since the law of sines is typically proven using areas, I wonder if you could eliminate its use and just use areas. Or just use the law of sines without considering area. The latter seems more like what the girls did.
>>16162503I feel like we laughed at this last year.
>>16162503that chin on the fatter one
>>16162503>>16163398It's that thread again where /sci/ shows its absolute miserable loser side. Threads like these are so unbelievably cringe.
>>16168559You feel the need to attack some teens that discover their love for math, which means you feel like they are taking away something from you or as if your shitty life would be better if they didn't get their 5 mins of attention. Only an absolute loser would think like that. You think actually accomplished scientist react like you by trying to put them down with personal attacks?
>>16168796Most people on this board do not give a fuck about maths.
>>16168796>You think actually accomplished scientist react like you by trying to put them down with personal attacks?I believe the whole roster does this, yes...only sometimes, so they all get out in different degrees of Satanism.From "Out of control" Mikaku, a renegade for his own demons, or servile like Bill Nye...leering.
>>16162503I think discovering a new proof of pythagoras is neat. they're probably bright kids and have great futures ahead.
>>16168861that fat one has a future in competitive eating or sump wrestling
>>16162503Based black bitches. Pythagoras up in heaven hollering like a mad man rn fr.
>>16170982Pythagoras wasn't a Christian so he didn't go to heaven
>>16171840how could he, he lived in 500BC
>>16171970not a valid excuse
>>16166840did her chin get caught in the pencil sharpener?
>>16174242moonman raped her mom
No one in their right mind takes this bullshit at face value. Therefore we may conjecture the motivation behind what appears to be a deliberate, well planned, and admittedly clever ploy.Background: At regular intervals we see stories that honor black teens for "achieving" critical successes. Two popular ones you may recall involve the kid that "built" a computer, and the three African girls who created an electricity generator using urine as the fuel.You will notice the subjects are always black. Not for example one of the many other ethnic groups such as Burmese, Peruvian, Iranian, or Malay, etc. Theory 1. Some well intentioned liberal group in Education actively seeks to promote black achievements to inspire black students. There are few historical precedents so they invent new ones.Theory 2. A group seeking to get its hands on fund money brings attention to these stories in an effort to justify more funding for technical development aimed at uplifting blacks. They will of course oversee the grants and take a huge slice of the pie in administration fees ( as do most charities ). They may actually have a direct role in manufacturing these stories or bring about their creation with prompting.Theory 3. There is no overt direct agenda, these stories are simply journalistic clickbait designed to fill a niche readership market. ( Most likely theory in my opinion ). Typically they fall into one of three categories, "feel good" or "impending catastrophe" or "outrage" and are frequently the domain of tabloid tier news agencies.Theory 4. These stories are just part of a wider noninformation program. Noninformation is the flooding of news channels with stories of trivial concern. Frequently they concern subjects which the general public has little or no knowledge about which makes it easier to pass them off as newsworthy. The intention here is to fill up space and displace other more important and perhaps controversial news from the public's attention.

>>16162503I’ll admit that I’m a math retard but I really don’t get it. Why does this matter? Hasn’t Pythagoras’s theorem been proven? How does this build upon what we have and take us further?
>>16174612>"16 YEAR OLD BECOMES YOUNGEST WOMAN TO GET BACHELORS DEGREE AT TWUM"its nice to know that dr. twum has her own university, science has a bright future with her in at the helm
>>16162503Breeding stock, obviously. Young men with sense will claim them for wives soon.
>>16168796>You feel the need to attack some teens thats just you projecting your own repulsive personality on everyone else. everyone one in this thread is discussing math except for the minority of people seething about /pol/, chuds, incels, nazis or whatever other boogeyman their headcannon carries around to be constantly upset over.
Is there a proof that all four sides of a square are of equal length?
>>16177646maybe the negroes will prove this for us one day
>>16177646It cannot be proved because the square root of 2 is irrational
>>16179395ok, thanks
>>16179395Can it be proved if you use dark numbers?
It is widely thought that no other theorem in mathematics has had more valid proofs than the Pythagorean Theorem. Since the time of Euclid it has been proved over three hundred different ways. Not only did Euclid have his own proof, so did Albert Einstein and Presdent James A Garfield. I believe Ramanujan had his own proof. How long will it take to prove the Pythagorean Theorem? 2,300 years ago long. Yesterday long. It’s settled. It’s done.
>>16166840is her name Erin Williams or Ne'Kyia Jackson?
>>16171840>>16171970>>16173049ehm, Jesus brought people from the first level of hell to heaven after he died haven't you heard of DANTE?
>>16174612>Now guess her ethnicity.a degree in sociology. They aren't human, this is why they need to study humanities.
>>16162503>/pol/tard seething in this thread because they've never discovered anything and their only accomplishment is being born a certain skin color

>>16162512isnt using infinite series a less stringent constraint than pythagoras?

>>16162503are they legit niggers or dark skinned asians? the fatter appears to have naturally straight hair, and neither of them have big lips
>>16193370asians being good at math doesn't make global headline news
>>16193860Asians aren't good at math, thats just a racist meme
>>16190815some simps will pay fortunes for this
>>16162503I think american teens look like they are over 30, you guys need to close those fast foods ASAP
>>16174581they'd get no media attention for a headline like:Teachers at Catholic School coach students into new proof of pythagorean theorem

>>16162736Very nice.Sadly if you're White, this isn't considered a great achievement because you aren't of a subhuman intelligence.
if they're so good at trig maybe they can learn to triangulate where that beeping noise is coming from and figure out how to fix the smoke alarm
