How to draw a triangle with 3 right-sides. Explain.

darkknight:

u mean angles?

darkknight:

u cant

kittybasil:

Visually impossible if we are speaking of a 2-dimensional figure

justjm:

not possible in euclidean geometry, merely a mirage

darkknight:

go away pops

Rose07:

Well apparently my teacher says it's possible

kittybasil:

Please do not swear. The mods can see you

darkknight:

everyone comes here lol

kittybasil:

Oh he left nvm

Ultrilliam:

Also, this is impossible, lol

darkknight:

yes ur teacher is wrong

Rose07:

Well, IDK why my teacher is making us do I tried looking it up.

kittinspops:

she is your right

kittybasil:

Technically possible but not on a 2-dimensional scale. If your teacher didn't specify, then it would be on the 3-dimensional visual. BOOM. (Here's proof)

kittybasil:

Here's more proof.

Ultrilliam:

Yes, 3 dimensionally it is possible, however that counts more as a pyramid than a triangle

darkknight:

a triangle is always 2D right

Shadow:

Yes

kittybasil:

Not necessarily no. There are things such as spherical polygons

Ultrilliam:

Correct, a triangle is a two dimensional figure

darkknight:

so it isn't possible end of discussion

Rose07:

Sadly I can't see the proof it's blocked on my chromebook

darkknight:

same

kittybasil:

It is possible but not a topic discussed in popular maths

kittybasil:

I have heard of it but never looked into it. @Rose07 I will find you some other sources brb

Rose07:

Well my teacher always has some out of box things he wants us to do

kittybasil:

Here's an answer from a math tutor

darkknight:

we got all the moderators on this post

kittybasil:

How to confuse all the mods ^

kittybasil:

Um... what

mhchen:

sk|dw:1583468896793:dw| BOOM 4 TRIANGLES WITH 3 RIGHT SIDES BONUS POINTS AMIRITE

darkknight:

that doesn't count, there are no sides

mhchen:

There's a boundary to the universe

darkknight:

that boundary is the darkknight

Rose07:

And all three right-angles have to be in one triangle

darkknight:

Rose07, u cant

lolkittens:

sorry for break up with you darkknight

darkknight:

who are u

kittybasil:

I'm just gonna back out of this chat now.

darkknight:

no

Rose07:

Well I have to come up with a detailed explanation of why it wouldn't be possible

darkknight:

who is u

kittybasil:

Oh, you want WHY it's not possible? So we are discussing Euclidean geometry then

darkknight:

just say what the teacher said

Rose07:

@DCharger96 @Padfoot06

darkknight:

no, no we have enough people on this

kittybasil:

It's not possible because a flat 2D triangle's angles would add up to 180 degrees.

darkknight:

yes

Rose07:

The teacher didn't tell us anything about it he just told us what I put on here

mhchen:

d|dw:1583469011948:dw| Imagine on earth, we have 2 lines here and 1 line at the north pole: |dw:1583469118734:dw| that makes a shape with 3 sides, with 3 right-angles |dw:1583469140138:dw| ezzz

kittybasil:

If you have 3 right angles, that is \(3\times90=270\) which exceeds the angle summation formula for a 2D triangle

darkknight:

who r u???

kittybasil:

Whoa ok. Take that to the chat girl.

darkknight:

no im not

justjm:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Rose07 Well I have to come up with a detailed explanation of why it wouldn't be possible \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) It would not be possible in Euclidean geometry because one of the lines would not be able to meet to form a complete triangle. Hence why in a triangle the sum of all angles are 180°, and there are 3 sides |dw:1583469188538:dw| Even with 2 right angles, they cannot join, as you can see

darkknight:

yes

mhchen:

Y'all really believe the earth is flat?

darkknight:

just stop at this point

kittybasil:

Where did that come from? @mhchen

mhchen:

I'm drawing on a round globe, y'all drawing on a flat plane

kittybasil:

We already agreed it's Euclidean geometry, my dude

mhchen:

welp

kittybasil:

But if you want flat earth stuff here you go

mhchen:

couldn't keep up with posts going so fast lol

darkknight:

EVERYONE IS ONE THIS

kittybasil:

Same. Also the weird person making 999 accounts just to comment NSFW about Dark lol

justus:

LOL

kittybasil:

Oh no they're back

mhchen:

RUNNNNNNNNN

Rose07:

Well, I gtg to bed I have a Hayhawks game tomorrow.

kittybasil:

Ohmygoodness leave Rose's post alone. She needs math help not some weird person posting preteen cringe

kittybasil:

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Alright well gn
