Didn’t mention what high-school they attended or what colleges they now attend

“Draw your own conclusions as to whether the hostility had anything to do with the fact that Jackson and Johnson are Black women.”

And here I was glad they were black women.

Earth to liberals: You cannot post anything on the Internet without getting hostility.

For me, the author lost all credibility and cast some doubt where he used the term “Black women”. The color of their skin has nothing to do with their achievement, and belittles what they’ve done.

My cat has been investigating the Pythagorean Theorem from a more practical point of view.

Nothing worth publishing so far.

Well, the proof is in the pudding—so to speak. They look young so perhaps their young minds were able to think outside the box for their theorums.

Good for them! I like to see encouragement in the STEM areas, and Mathematics often takes a back seat to the others because it's viewed as more esoteric and theoretical.

Maybe there's some hope for the next generation. A few teenagers like these are a drop in a large bucket, but a very valuable and worthy drop.

“are Black women” — Inconsequential.

>> Teenagers Publish Trigonometric Proof Of Pythagoras’ Theorem Once Considered Impossible

“Once Considered Impossible” — I find this hard to believe unless it’s a matter of more than 400 years ago.

Okay. Here's the conclusion: Hell no!

These high school students deserve awe and praise.

I'm impressed.

OK. Let’s see it so we can evaluate how much of a breakthrough this actually is...

It’s not like this is advanced binary math or something that complicated.

This is OLD news that was debunked long ago. They didn’t do anything special or unusual that wasn’t done before. If they had been Asian, it would never have even been reported.

The fact that the proof may not be trigonometric or may not be totally original, does not take away from the accomplishment of these young women. As for the pushback, it is stupid and insipid to chalk it up to racism. When you claim to have made a new mathematical proof, expect the rest of the math world to put you through total scrutiny. Time will tell if the
claim stands up. Media jerkwagons won’t know either way.

As someone with dyscalculia, I can feel my head and neck tense up just reading part of the article.
