They should just memorize it.

Well, they're trying. But the point isn't the memorization of those (they actually had the proportions to consult) but that they be able to figure out how to apply it given new measurements.

Okay, the equilateral thing? Makes total sense. Didn't occur to me at the time (because I don't think I ever memorized, or possibly was ever taught, these special triangles), but that would be helpful. And also, using x^2 + 4^2 = (2x)^2 would be easier for them, I think, than sqrt(3)x = 4.

It's academic, since the unit is over, but I'm trying to figure out how I should have handled it. Thank you!

Oddly. I still have some.

That is weird.

Alibelle, I'm on campus MWF. It's best to catch me in the afternoons, after 2.

Darn it. That's tricky. I made yummy chocolate chip muffins, and one of them has your name on it. Some other time, I guess.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'd love a facial.

I can give you one, actually. I just don't do the extractions because I'm not big on the hurting people.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

More from LJ:

Our data center (Internap) lost all its power, including redundant backup power. We're currently dealing with bringing our 100+ servers back online. Not fun. We're not happy about this. Sorry... :-/ More details later.

I hate when that happens.

P-C, a guy my husband works with just got back from India. He brought us Gujarati Choondo Pickle. Made me think of you.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Ouch! And a million slackers whimpered.

Ah, well. It's time to go home, anyway. I'm probably working the weekend, don't really want to be here late on Friday night.

I want a pedicure. I've never had one, but it's getting hard to cut my own toenails.

Will they give you a pedicure with no polish? Because I don't want polish.

Am convinced my body put out a Craig's List ad seeking every painful pregnancy side effect possible. I'm kind of bitter about this.

Alibelle, pretty lady, where do you want to live/work? Do you want to stay in L.A.?

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Not a happy day in LJ-land.

Oh, poor livejournal! (And also, rats! How the hell am I supposed to entertain myself? Read? ...oh. Yeah, I guess I could do that.)
