“You couldn’t do it so it can’t be done?”
Yup. Right up there with “I can’t imagine that so it can’t be true.”
Much of humanity’s confusion stems from overestimating the significance of “I.”
I’ve done enough geometric proofs to know that this angle affecting this angle is all about what is actually possible in real life.
And I never once had a geometry teacher who quoted a law that depended on whether I “tried hard enough”. You can draw right triangles all you want and the sum of the angles will always equal 180 degrees. No math teacher has ever told me that I just hadn’t tried enough times to find the way to get a triangle totalling 240 degrees.
What is being dealt with in this scenario is the effect of angles. It’s not a highly erratic science. lol
