Sounds like a wild party. You crazy kids.

I certainly was jealous to hear I missed out on such a do.

So how exactly did Figjam get genital warts?

Aroused by the puzzles that maths can provide.

Infected paper cuts.

You chase 'classy' chicks when they are your teacher. You get to spend Saturday night in bed...with your math books!

^^ In that case, How do you solve a problem like Maria?

Bury her charred remains in a 15ft deep pit, in the thick of a forest.

ok Skully and others,

I tried the problem myself, i have 4 equations and 4 unknowns so things are looking VERY good!

Dello, you are a stunning individual as far as humor is concerned...

I am a huge fan of nerdy parties(minus the video games as they are too complicated for me)

Let A be the angle made by the floor and the 40 ft ladder, let B be the angle made the 60 ft ladder and the floor....

Let F be the distance from the the bottom of the 60 ft ladder and the point of intersection, let T be the distance from the bottom of the 40 ft ladder to the point of intersection

We attain the following equations

Tan A= 7/T
Cos A=(F+T)/40
Cos B= (F+T)/60
Tan A= 7/F

Little bit complicated....

Tan B=7/F

by PlanetPakistan Tue 16 Jul 2013, 14:01

Yes, that's what i meant! Thanks Doremi!

Screw Tan A=7/T, what I really want to know is what else went down at this party?

What's your angle, PP?

That's acute line Lardy.

The angle of the dangle is probably in inverse proportion ....

That will be a bit obtuse for some.

I think you have the right angle there, MrK.

by JGK Wed 17 Jul 2013, 03:52

Somethings are just reflex.

by doremi Wed 17 Jul 2013, 05:56

Come back on topic, stop going off on tangents.

by furriner Wed 17 Jul 2013, 06:09

Let them be doremi, these lads fancy a bit of pi.

by JGK Wed 17 Jul 2013, 07:20

It's a sine of the times furry.

by Batman Wed 17 Jul 2013, 07:55

Its the cos of the matter.
