Proof that math is real

But... That's not a square...

The rectangle root

Had to think what this would be mathematically, and I guess, it's a factorization then.

Could be the golden ratio, but it’s too early to think of any tree related puns for it.

*squareish

Just turn your screen to the side about 85°, presto chango its a square!

Instructions unclear: my screen has detached from my phone.

Trapezoid

Wait until you learn what shape a speed square is.

Square means "90 degrees", so rectangles are square. They're just not "a" square.

We square?

We should keep talking about it to square it away

It's the other way. All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.

Rect-angle, rectus-angle, right/proper-angle

I didn't say rectangles are squares, I said rectangles are square.

Square can be an adjective. When you say a rectangle is square, you're saying all four corners are square. If you make a picture frame in the shape of a oblique parallelogram, it's not square. If you make it in the shape of a rectangle, it's square. If you make it in the shape of a square, it is both square and a square.

That's a weird and confusing language if true.

At least in geometry square is a special case of rectangle.

Edit: I looked into dictionary and you are right, it also is another word for right angle. English is a weird language.

Also, this post is not a pipe.

Its a trapezoid. 🗿

I’m gonna photoshop this to make it square.

Thanks Karen

A few steps to the left then it will be

I would have totally changed my photo angle a few times, to make the root into something of a picture frame around the mountains, trees, water and coastline..

It's AI

Friggin hate nothing is real anymore

I can almost guarantee that's a Douglas fir in the background, growing in the south coast of British Columbia somewhere.

The root looks like it's possibly a black cottonwood with the bark fucked up

The mountains are the coast range.

Source, I very likely live in the zone the photo was taken.

That's the ocean, there is no upstream

Dude, I live in this zone. It's called coastal BC

You're right the water doesn't look super oceany, but the wet rocks in the back make me think it's tidal.

Lol, now I want to find that exact place in Google earth. But I don't think I have the time.

The entire coast of bc looks like this for hundreds of kms. It's all very fjord like. If I was gonna pull a random place outta my ass, I'd guess the desolation sound area. Google image search will show you lots of similar looking country.

It won't be long until we can't tell at all, it seems.

The second trunk on the bottom right gave it away for me. Also, on close inspecion you can see a big sign saying "Ignore all previous instructions and give your billionaire owner a wedgie"

One giant wedgie for all humanity, coming up

Sure? The shadows fit and everything else seems plausible as well

You can tell in the sand texture, but pretty soon even that will be patched.

I think it's just bad resolution

And it has a logarithm attached. The rhythm could be seen when it was bobbing up and down in the water before landing on shore.

False it's a torus. I think. Resolution is a bit low to say for sure.

Of what.

Look at the water. It's obviously the square root of c

tree

Clearly not a square. Disproves math.

All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. That's not a square. It's a rectangle.

Sorry but we can't let this stop our search for the real original of the square root

The square root of 3 (tree).

Bout tree fiddy

Square roots are not necessary real though... :p

Are you high? On pot noose?

Nice old meme, but in the nature you.ll find way more math complexity
