pythagoras theorem

Using Pythagoras Theorem, the third side of a right-angled triangle can be calculated when two sides are given.

Suppose A = length of hypotenuse and
B & C = lengths of the sides containing the right angle

Then (A^2) = (B^2)+(C^2)

Proof:

If a = angle opposite side A ( =90 degrees)

b = angle opposite side B

c = angle opposite side C

then B = A sin a and C = A cos a

Squaring and adding,we get the result.

Pythagorean triplets:

3,4,5

5,12,13

8,15,17

Pythagorean Theorem

1. In geometry, a theorem stating that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides (legs). If the hypotenuse is c units long and the lengths of the legs are a and b, then c2 = a2 + b2. The theorem provides a way of calculating the length of any side of a right triangle if the lengths of the other to sides are known.

2. Something the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz was unable to correctly state even after he received his brains from the wizard.

-The Pythagorean Theorem? Who needs it? Some smart little preppy kid who's gonna save the world someday?
-Actually you need it to pass this geometry test asshole! If you don't pass this you stay back another year!

angle theory

unattractive people will take photos from various angles to give the illusions of looking better than they actually appear. Common in dating sites, as well as social networking sites such as nexopia, facebook, myspace.

The angly theory is used mostly by fat chicks. High angles give the illusion of height, and reduce the apperance of fat. When meeting someone from the net, always ask for multiple pictures.

remember: girls in photos are fatter than they appear

mike: check out this cool artsy pic that this girl i've been talking to on myspace sent me.
ryan: Dude..the angle theory predicts that she's fat

Bipolar Magnetic Reversal Theory

When you reverse bipolar and it is magnetic and it is also a theory.

I study the Bipolar Magnetic Reversal Theory.

Critical Race Theory

Or CRT or Can’t be Responsible for Themselves Is the theory based on being a victim at all times. This theory perpetuates the idea of being lesser and will never bring one to the realization that only they, themselves, can be their own salvation. See Free Will.

Man Critical Race Theory is just another way of keeping us down. FACTS.
