Graduate Can anyone spot the error in this fallacy
a = 1 b = 2 t = 3 5th line 1^2 -3(1) + 3^2/4 = 2^2 - 3(2) + 3^2/4 0.25 = 0.25 6th line (1-3/4)^2 = (2-3/4)^2 0.5625 = 1.5625 how is that wrong math?- Perau

lets just argue for sakes here that it is absolute value because it really doesn't matter, if you put the -/+ in front of the numbers no way will it still equal each other. the magnitude is still different. ok might be a bit confusing, assume absolute for our case. the magnitudes should...- Perau
