like in real life what is it you're trying to do
Showing how the pythagorean theorem works in an infinite number of dimensions not just with two dimensions like you learn in shool it has broad applications in computational geometry, 3d computer graphics, measurements of the earth, space navigation, physics it's endless.
馃槃
so 2d pyfagorean theorem gives you the hypotenuse length, if you add a dimension does it give you the triangle's area?
like if you take 3 line segments, does it give you the area of the triangle between the points?
just trying to understand the application concept
you can extend the theorem to 3 dimensions for example all you have to do is add it as well like sqrt(a^2 + b^2 + c^2)
that's it, it applies to any number of dimensions
that's it? square root of variables squared?
to find a length between 2 points ye
I see
length between 2 points
so in the 3d version, where you had 3 vectors at right angle, what would the result of that tell you
And if you modify the pythagorean theorem or just subtract two vectors/points with eachother and then compute the pythagorean theorem on the resulting vector from the subtraction you get the distance between the two points in space.
nigger turn down your autism, just answer my questions straight so I can understand
if you had 3 vectors that were all perpendicular to each other it would tell you the total length of all 3
only when all are perpendicular
okay
wait... so if you had 3 vectors perpendicular, all with magnitude 1, that theorem would give you sqrt3, like 1.7
yeah
and then if you had 4 dimensions you'd get 2, etc.
Are you making a Michael Angelo painting with the guy stretched out all golden ratio like with your words my nigga?
So if you have a vector represent an individual human the dimensions could be their age, height, sex etc etc. Then you could have a cloud of points representing people and then compute the distance from one person to another across all their different metrics.
so you have 3 vectors 1 unit long all perpendicular, then 1.7ish as the result of the formula, but what is the 1.7? distance from what to what?
if you line up all vectors one after the other, that would be the shortest length from the beginning to the end
@Someguy yes
like the triangle hypotenuse, the exact same as that but in 3 dimensions

Hope you like it.
who is that
J do you suppose you could draw me a quick MSpaint pic?
google has some good ones
ah, I see
@white pride world wide
i figure that's what he was trying to get across
that makes sense
You embody some classical Swedish virtues. Not even just nordic, but specifically Swedish
WPWW needs to clean up his presentation. I like to watch his thoughts because he's smart and gets stuff done so I don't talk trash, but a bit of clarity would be nice
