Nerd Alert! - Pythagorean Proof - Which is your Favorite

Only ONE proof is required, since it is after all a "proof".

That stated, I find it interesting about Garfield's proof to members of Congress.
In today's age the current, simple minded Congressional bloviators (one specific party more than another) would likely not understand as well as couldn't care less.
They would ignore this since it would actually require using ones mind.
Probably would blame it on Trump and/or the Russians.

So, was the original thread title misspelled, or something, that brought "pie" into it? I must have missed it.

No. I sandbagged the thread with the pie statement. Low brow humor on my part. You understand the proof; I understand pie.

All is well.

The proof is in there...

You axed me.

Now, if you paid a cover and $15 for drinks, sitting at a little round table with a candle, you'd be laughing.
??? I still have no clue.

The proof is in the pudding.

Just use the Pythagorean Theorem.
