What happened to them? Did they publish their proof?
>>16094169>Uses the law of Sines>Which does not use trigonometryI think I just had a stroke
>>16094175stfu raysis crackaa
>>16094169The mystery was "CAN two Black teens do Math?"Still unproven
>>16094169>american mathematician Elisha Loomis arguedHe was a teacher who did nothing academically noteworthy except compile a book of proofs of the pythagorean theorem. His claim that trigonometric proofs are impossible is based on the belief that the identity sin^2 x + cos^2 x = 1 is impossible to prove without the pythagorean theorem (wrong) and that all trigonometry relies on that identity (also wrong). One paragraph after he makes this claim he cites an existing (in 1914) trigonometric proof.http://library.lol/main/8427D1CAE935F040A91DD4499F15CECE>>16094175Law of sines is basically just the area formula for a triangle. IIRC when looking at their proof using the law of sines instead of area actually made it more complicated than it needed to be.
>>16094169>Did they publish their proof?Yeah, it's in the toilet along with Atiyah's proof of the RH and Inter-universal teichmuller theory.
>>16094169Yes, its a new field of math called niggonometry
>>16094169Typical clickbait title.If it's a question, you can just answer it with no.If it's a statement then it's in some vague sense true, while being distorted (exaggerated, applied to wrong context, etc.).
>>16096952Lmao
>>16096952Nothing new about that cuz when a bish suk yo di fo 5 dolla per square inch and gets 40 dolla including a 5 dolla tip, how big was tha di she just suk is nigganometry.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjT7h3KKSpk
>>16096952Daily reminder that side niggers are not imaginary.
>>16097393Lmao the comments there are fire
>>16096962how many 2000 year old math mysteries have you solved?
>>16098973All of them?
>>16096962this is your brain on /pol/ don't undermine the black folx
>>16099044
>>16100312I have a saved screenshot from that year?!...womp womp fellas....womp womp.
>>16094169why would they bother publishing since whiteys are too dumb to understand their proof and negroes can't read?
>>16101998So after a few decades, they can claim the theorem was actually discovered by black women despite facing systemic racism and oppression
>>16094169they were killed in a drive-by
>>16094169>American mathematician Elisha Loomis argued that no mathematician has been able to establish its truth without using circular logicHow is picrel circular logic?
>>16094169From what I've heard, what they did was fine, a cute proof of Pythagoras' theorem. The sensationalistic reporting around it is what's bullshit. Nope, it's not a "new kind of proof" that has eluded mathematicians for years. Blame the journos, not the kiddos.
>>16102981That's more of a geometric demonstration rather than an algebraic proof
>>16102988Exactly, journalists have zero regard for the truth and believe activism matters most, if they see a Black person doing anything positive they feel a need to make it into something much bigger than what it is.
>>16103849>journalists have zero regard for the truth and believe activism matters mostsame is true of scyentists
>>16102981>How is picrel circular logic?you can rotate it
>>16104349>same is true of scyentistsscyentists, when they're caught lying, commonly try to blame their lies on journalists.
>>16105868They should just be honest, then they wouldn't have to devote so much of their time and energy on being ashamed of themselves and avoiding responsibility for their own actions
How much urine was involved in this science caper?
>>16107435wdym urine?
>>16094169They're publishing their actual paper same day the Koreans publish their superconductor paper, it's gonna be a big deal
>>16094169>Did they publish their proof?Stop being racist... having to 'prove' something is WhitenessWhat does your 'heart" tell you... don't they LOOK smart, therefore it must be true
>>16094169it went hush-hush when people realised that not only has it been proven before, but it's even been proven through trigonometric methodshttps://www.cut-the-knot.org/pythagoras/TrigProof.shtml
>>16108253>>16108379trigonometric methods are using circular reasoning thus invalid
>>16096952
>>16108886>>16108886Explain what the circular reasoning is in the linked proof.
>>16108886all trigonometric methods are fundamentally based on circular reasoning
>>16102981A picture is not a proof.
>>16103849>if they see a Black person doing anything negative they feel a need to make it into something much bigger than what it isso, 4chan?
>>16110049>i hate 4chanwhy are you here?
>>16110049we wuz
>>16109998lol
>>16100314Oh wow! Maybe you should go back then, election tourist.
>>16111138I come to 4chan to anonymously brag about how much better I am than everyone else because of my crippling psychological insecurity and lack of self confidence to do that bragging in any way that isn't completely anonymous
>>16113284lame
>>16113284cringe
>>16114562>>16114892these
>>16108960Nta but the circular reasoning of all other older proofs is explained in that and other similar articles and stackoverflow too.
>>16110049lol yeah
>>16094169They were killed in a drive-by before they were able to publish it.

wtf, does the sum of square surfaces not prove it in a non-circular way?!?
>>16134779Yes but it's not very algebraic.
>>16094169no, the fat one ate it
>>16134969Doesn't matter, it's a proof and it's non-circular. Case closed.
>>16135621>doesn't matterwhitey cope. Next time you want to do a binomial expansion, would you start drawing squares?
>>16136730They look like they'll rob $6 off me before even buying them
>>16102911What an unfortunate turn of events
>>16094169>Did they publish their proof?They did but its in ebonics so nobody can understand it except for negroes and they're all too illiterate to be able to read it.

>>16144917you concede then
>>16096952kek
>>16103186Since it's a generic a^2 and b^2, it's universalizable and thus serves as a proof. It doesn't need to be algebraic, since proofs predate algebra.
>>16145141Load of cope
>>16136980
>>16130405What'd I miss
They presented their proof at Georgia Tech
>>16147673It was an image of lip plate africans.>>16148008Nice
>>16148008Is that Twum?
>>16149228Those are the two black students who proved the Pythagoras theorem. Their proof is rather unique in that, unlike any other proof they don't use a circular reasoning.
>>16149228no, those are the children of color who grew up seeing Twum.
>>16150851I feel lucky and proud to live in the glorious era of the Twum scientific revolution
>>16148726Why are pics of lip plate africans banned?
>>16153442No idea blud, could be some leftist ass janny getting triggered or sum idk
>>16153728Why would a janny get trigger by pics of Africans who embrace their native traditional culture?
>>16094169They're both fat and ugly, I bet neither of them got asked to go to prom
>>16155256I bet noone asked you either, nerd
>>16155285wrong, i went to prom. i'm actually a massive normalfag, i played football in high school too. jealous?
>>16156110ok? have you solved Pythagoras then?
>>16156852Did you go to prom or were you so repulsive and unlikable that you couldn't get a date?
>>16157449Nah we don't have that shit here
>>16094169>>16108379>>16148008if you go through the list at cut-the-knot, it really does seem like their proof is different from all of them. The closest is #100, which has the same “waffle cone” look but #100 happens inside the triangle, and the students’ new proof happens outside the triangle. I think #100 is nicer, and I think (but don’t know) that they got the idea from looking at #100. But it does seem to be different from the things on the list.
>>16157612>he didn't go to promsocial reject, enjoy your lifetime of lonely bitterness and the inevitable cringe coping mechanisms you invent to try and compensate
>>16158559No it's not that I didn't go. We simply don't have that retarded "social" tradition in my country
>>16148008>>16157719All this is just a circular way to prove something already proven geometrically (as shown here >>16102981 ), it works as a proof but why the fuck would anyone waste their time doing this?
