Ab2 + Bc2 = Ac2
Can you also write this like..
Ab/Ab + Bc/Bc = Ac/Ac..?
Can you also write this like..
Ab/Ab + Bc/Bc = Ac/Ac..?
The discussion centers on the Pythagorean Theorem, specifically the equation Ab2 + Bc2 = Ac2, and its proposed alternative representation Ab/Ab + Bc/Bc = Ac/Ac. Participants debate the validity of this notation, with some asserting that it is mathematically incorrect unless Ab and Bc are zero. The conversation highlights misunderstandings of basic algebra and the implications of dividing by zero, ultimately concluding that the original theorem does not support claims about the speed of light being zero.

rudeonline said:Ab2/Ab + Bc2/Bc = Ac2/Ac
rudeonline said:I still don't have an answer if Ab2/Ab is the same as AbxAb.
And why Ab2 + Bc2 = Ac2 is not the same as Ab/Ab + Bc/Bc = Ac/Ac
But I think a got some point here.
Are you asking if "the product of a number and itself divided by that number" is equal to "the product of a number and itself"? No, unless that number is one.rudeonline said:I still don't have an answer if Ab2/Ab is the same as AbxAb.
Since you're dividing by zero, it's not true then either.rudeonline said:And why Ab2 + Bc2 = Ac2 is not the same as Ab/Ab + Bc/Bc = Ac/Ac
I know that this formula only is correct if Ab and Bc are zero. But I think a got some point here.
You're such a killjoy.enigma said:Seriously... you need to get through algebra before you go after general relativity.

matt grime said:err, no since presumably
Ab/Ab + Bc/Bc = Ac/Ac
is 1+1=1

If you do 1 km + 1 sec you got 1 km/sec
disgustAh jeez, I memorized all those other numbers for nothing?rudeonline said:Correct 1+1=1...
I certainly would not, but isn't that what YOU are saying?rudeonline said:It's sad, how stupid people can be...
If you have 1 car with 4 persons, would you say 1 + 4 = 5 our...
1 + 4 = 4 persons/car...?
If you do 1 km + 1 sec you got 1 km/sec
