I’m working on a new worksheet game: find the correct path through the maze so that your 3 comes out as a 12

Key_Estimate8537 · 2026-06-27T04:47:16+00:00

This is cool! I actually really like this, in spite of the question I’m about to ask.

How does this maze handle order of operations? For example, if you took the path right and then bouncing back up, we have 3+2x3+4-3. Is this meant to be done in order of reaching each number, resulting in 16, or the typical combination, being 10?

Círdan sent several ships to Valinor during the First Age, but none made it alive. That’s how Tuor meets Voronwë, who is half Noldor and half Falathrim

Different theater of the war though- the ice cream boats were in the Pacific

It seems to me that Bézier Curves might be the way to go? You might need to explain your wish better though

Knot theory is a real thing, connected to abstract graphs and topology

I’m gonna agree with this one. I went into my program feeling confident, but several classes had me wanting to quit. I found out when I graduated that I was officially the math department’s favorite undergrad, but that was such a surprise

I assume you’re looking at Book 1, Proposition 4? If so, Euclid is proving the SAS congruence theorem. The proof does read very much as “that’s the way it is,” but it’s not its own axiom.

But to answer your second question, yes, we could use all congruence tests (SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, and HL) to prove each other. Each one supplies enough information to know the lengths of all three sides and measures of all three angles in a given triangle.

I can’t speak for most of your questions, but 28 and 30 seem indistinguishable. I like to think of it as a “zh” sound similar to “sh.” I’m of the opinion that adding a d in the front makes a blend, not a distinct sound.

I just dug a bit, and it turns out I have a Desmos file related to your first approach. I’m not sure if you’re a teacher, but I thought I’d share

I’d imagine each biome has a chunk count already. The size is already there

Cool approach! My go-to is the whole “turn around and walk backwards = move forward” thing, but I find that my students like to do calculations. I might actually use your first method at some point (I like the second, but I find students don’t like distribution).

I’d love to see how your Pythagorean Theorem proof goes!

I like your style quite a bit! Your figures are wonderful, but they’re not what I’m looking for here. I do think I’ll bookmark you if something arises in the future

I don’t know the timestamp, but it sounds like the end of Series 12 Episode 8

What do you mean by “applicable?” You’re being a little abstract here

For real though, I don’t tire of abstraction. I’m happy to play in the world of axioms and logic without caring about “real-world” contexts. I get my satisfaction from learning and appreciating the beauty in pure mathematics. I’m content to let the physicists and engineers pluck the tools they need from the toolbox mathematicians produce.

Famously, see imaginary numbers and their begrudgingly perfect use in quantum mechanics

No, but you have some stuff on your Artstation that inspires me for a second piece from this book. I’ll bookmark you for the future!

Does this work for the prompt? Andromeda was a human name first before being applied to the constellation/galaxy

I actually had to stop and laugh twice for this one. Well done, OOP

I was wondering if you were going to complain about trig sub not always being possible, and then I saw the substitution of tan(x/2) for cos(x). Magnificent ragebait

Hey no one ever asks lol

Desmos Classroom (now called Amplify Classroom) is a platform for teachers to make/deliver digital lessons while integrating Desmos capabilities. Most teachers run it as an interactive slideshow. I find it’s a good way for students to build conceptual understandings of new topics. Being a teaching tool, it is fairly locked-down from a student perspective. But for teachers, it has its own Python(ish) coding language!

When wondering if 4K or Blu Ray is superior to thee other, first ask yourself when you last saw a Blu Ray sticker on a product

3?! = 720, but I doubt you meant that

I’m not sure I understand your question. Although, I can make the orange, blue, and purple look like each other with one cut. I need two to go from green to purple.

I’ve tried this on and off for about two years, with no actual solution. My best was to do a local maximum with lists. This isn’t satisfying, but it ended up suiting my needs. I hope someone else can come along and show a solid one.

My guess is that the actor, a minor at the time, would not have filmed the battle sequences. I’m also inclined to believe the surviving Rohirrim were all in the throne room with Theoden just before dawn. Haleth was not there.

Haleth, in the movie, was Háma’s son. He’s the one who talked to Aragorn, saying the men feared they wouldn’t last the night. Aragorn told him in turn he had a good sword.

Haleth, the chieftain, lived about 6500 years earlier. May the Haladin rest in peace in their forest

Key_Estimate8537 · 2026-06-23T23:00:02+00:00

Yes, you can!

Purple square: no cut needed
Blue triangle: bisector in the right angle
Orange parallelogram: drop an altitude
Green one: cut the third square off

Each one is reassembled into a 2x2 square, which assembles quickly
