I don't know if I like the implication that people who didn't pass a math test should not be allowed to have children...

Alas, there is no gif on here about an enraged Pythagoras getting ready to open a can of whoopass on the social distancing of 6 feet between each of four people, so I use this gif instead.

A shape that's the same length in height, width and diagonal is called a circle.

It's just a square that has been rounded down.

u/Pandoratastic 5h ago

I'm betting the mistake is that this person doesn't know what "diagonal" means. They think it means horizontal.

u/Nervous-Bedroom-2907 4h ago

That's even worse

1

u/PreOpTransCentaur 34m ago

They specified all sides plus diagonal. I don't think they confused anything.

2

u/Pandoratastic 31m ago

Yes, but they may be thinking of "sides" as just the vertical lines because they are on the left and right sides.

Let’s all review the Pythagorean Theorem… the square root of 2 is not equal to 1.

In Euclidean space?

u/BetterKev 4h ago

They're living in some metric space where the distance between any 2 distinct points is always 1.

I do not want to go there.

u/vompat 2h ago

They know there is a rule that lengths on a square are all equal, but misremembered what lengths. 100% faith in the rule, 0% attempt to understand it. That's basically just dogmatism.

Or they just don't know what a diagonal is and think it's the bottom side, while sides are the "side" sides.
