Is it true that 1=2?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

false

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep, see attached :})

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's the answer I was looking for(:^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hahaha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's not true. the i one is fallacy due to square roots of a negative number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and joe i'm not sure how you get x+x+x+x+x = squared

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its always fun to try and find the mistakes lol.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well everyone thinks that the i one hold true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it doesn't

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it has to do with only being able to split positive integers of a square root into two

OpenStudy (anonymous):

square root properties only work when a>0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

indeed. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so no... no matter how many times your teachers and students tell you.. 1=2 there will be a fallacy in their work orrrr.. a fallacy within the theorem.. but usually they will restrict it as the people who wrote them were absolute geniuses

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow..Ya'll are way to smart for me..only highschool..lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i used to watch my teacher do things like this in highschool and i just thought wow my teacher just proved something wrong... really he was trying to make someone stand up and say he was wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

By the way, 1 does not equal. 2. 'i' is being used as a number, of which it is not. 1=2 is an 'imaginary' answer so to speak.
