You have a triangle named ABC.
What are the only 2 things you can tell me about said triangle?
1.
2.
PS google= cheating.
-
Maybe it's just too late for me, but:
1. It has 3 sides (is a triangle)
2. Its name is ABC
Let me know…
-
Maybe it's too early for me, but I get the same two answers; 3 sides and the name ABC
-
1. It's Mine
2. There may be others like it.
-
1. It has 3 sides AB,BC,and CA
2. It has 3 angles
Richard
-
1. three angles
2. angles add up to 180 degrees
-
only 1 person got it half right.
-
1) 3 angles
2) add up to 360 degrees
-
alfsauve,
"1. It's Mine
2. There may be others like it."
THAT WAS HELLARIOUS! ;D ;D ;D ;"but this one is mine. Without me, my triangle is useless, without my triangle I am useless."
"I will hug it, and squeeze it and call it ABC"
-
1. It's a polygon
2. Sum of the angles = 180 deg.
-
Ok its hint time...
Assumption is the mother of all f..k ups.

1. I have a triangle.
2. It's name is ABC.

about time some one got it ;D

It's gotta have a total of 180 degrees.

Haz no it doesn't. A triangle is still a triangle if it is projected onto a spherical surface, it has three sides, the sides are straight lines but the angles do not add to 180 degrees (they only add to 180 on a planar [flat] surface). That is the reason for Euclidian mathematics: hyperbolic sine (sinh) hyperbolic cosine (cosh), etc...

Shut up! Shouldn't you be out shooting a certain something and leave poor defenseless Haz alone. ;)

I had a math teacher that insisted a bullet could never reach its target because it had to travel half way to the target ad infinitum from its current point.
Please use him as a target.

I am merely pointing out the error of his statement and the reasoning behind it. I didn't mean to make you guys learn or anything. :'(

Math is BS, the system is flawed 3/3 does not equal 1

AHHHH!! Something like great circles and the stright line not always being the shorest route.
Thanks!

Patience Grasshopper, the truth will come. At least I hope so, because my head kind of hurts trying to project geometry problems onto "3d planar surfaces". A cool idea, but yikes! Say, I hear only a candy ass carries a .45 my 9 mm Glock is cooler! ;D

Who are you kidding? Only ball and cap guns are real guns ;D anything using a cartridge is for pussys ;D

I thought REAL men threw rocks. All those moving parts are for geeks who can do 3-D geometry. ;D

I understand spatial relationships and I carry a 1911..... ;D
I'm also 98% chimp but my throwing arm has been broken too many times....

Doubtful, but its still housed in one of those antiquated rust buckets isn't it? The really cool rocks come in plastic ! ;D

Maybe so....but it works........very effectively, when it come to rock throwin'. ;)
P.S.
I have some 'plastic-wrapped rocks' too.....and they're OK.

this is some de-evolution from a logic test, huh? :P

What else would you expect with this cast of "characters".
Just for the record, while I love .357 revolvers my carry gun is a 1911. ;D

2 times 2 equals 5 . . . . for extremely large values of 2
and real men use wooden clubs with obsidian blades!
Watched that new show on History Channel the other night, the guy was learning to use Mayan weapons, and got slioppy, let the club swing wide on the back swing, nicked himself in the back of the calf. Cut through his cargo pants and opened a huge gash in his leg. Took stitches to close - and that was just from a relaxed swing.
So from now on, it's wooden clubs with obsidian blades for me! ;D

OK...now we will have to wear 'kevlar re-enforced tactical pants' when we visit North Dakota. :o :o

Be carefull Peg, kevlar sucks for sharp knives.....best use Vermont granite!

Yet another reason to avoid North Dakota, distance from those damn Mayan weapons. I thought the frozen tundra thing was persuasive, but this clinches it.Thanks pegleg ;D

There's nothing to hide behind either, for those Mayans who are chucking obsidian bladed spears, Just WIDE expanses of flat plain.

And the next thing you know, well have a MOAWB...............Mayan Obsidian Assault Weapons Ban. ;)
