Alright, someone please explain to me how there isn't a right angle in the triangle in the original post?
:wtf:
Seems as clear as day to me... Perspective and all?
:conf: |
i thought x was longer than the other 2 sides. it is, isn't it? |

why are you saying that all the sides are the same length? just because two are? |

nah the tick marks signify that all the sides with that specific tick style are the same. in this instance all sides are equal. |

Basic Algebra fails me..
Angles not at a right angle...

Give me complex polynomial derivation and I will feel better. |
