And to answer your math question, pythagorean theorem would be the appropriate method to solving the problem.

Correctomundo...but in my class you would have gotten a zero for cheating by the providing solution when the question wasn't directed to you.

Don't be a damn child, please. You asked a question, it got an answer. But then again, I guess it demonstrates the usual public screwl mentality of punishing individual achievement and promoting socialism.

Don't be silly.

You directed the question to the entire "class" by posting it on a public board.

Did you want James to raise his hand and wave it about until recognized?

Or did you perhaps think that I didn't know who Pythagoras was and needed to be reminded? I read classical Greek in college as well as Latin, and I read koine Greek for fun now.

First, your problem with punishing a student for knowing the answer but not being called on really works well in the real world. Let me run out and practice that in my professional job. Oh boss, I knew that answer all along, but you didn't call on me for advice.

Second, you had to spend all weekend to find an article written by a JANITOR supporting the NEA, didn't you. Here, let me stroke your ego some by posting to your pathetic thread.

Third, you commented that the most arrogant people are homeschoolers. Yet, I find you, in your self-appointed ivory tower to be the most arrogant person I have known along with every other member of the NEA that spews this tripe because they recognize they are becoming irrelevant; as irrelevant as the main stream media. Of course, the MSM spews a very similar tripe: you can't get news from the internet from untrained professionals... etc.

Third, every argument you have made about why people should not homeschool has been debunked, thoroughly, even causing you to have to go back on what you say, repeatedly. Yet you still persist in trying to get people to support you.

Finally, I pinged some of the posters from the last thread you were on where you got so desperate you resorted to a temper tantrum and posting childish pictures, so they could see what a beautiful thread you have posted.
