July 24, 20179 yr Because we are a bunch of squares. "But there is no denying that, it's ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LB5YkmjalDgC'mon, you would have eventually gone there. :lol2: Edited July 24, 20179 yr by Runcible Owl

July 24, 20179 yr I'm still lost!Here, this should help you. If you know the distance from home to first. And you know the distance from first to second. You can calculate from those totals the distance from home to second. Courtesy of that pathagarun guy.

July 24, 20179 yr I'm still lost! Let me try. Pythagoras' Theorem In a right angled triangle: the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. [TABLE=align: center] [TR] [TD][/TD] [TD][/TD] [TD]a2 + b2 = c2 [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] c is the longest side, the hypotenuse. When the date is 8-15-17 a=8 b=15 c=17 (8*8)+(15*15) = 289 17*17 = 289 Therefore... (8*8)+(15*15)=(17*17) 8-15-17 is significant in geekdom, because a date combination that solves to Pythagoras Theorem is not exactly a common occurrence. Celebration involves smoking weed and saying "Wow!".
