Have you ever thought of maths as hard? Well, here's a simplified version of its categories: Arithmetic: adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing numbers (don't forget powers and roots!)Algebra: using x, y, z, a, w, etc. to figure out the value of an unknownCombinatorics: basically combining things?Geometry: shapes!!!!! YES!Topology: stretching, bending and squeezing solids to make … Continue reading Maths, but simpler
Wait, what’s gravity?
As a student in about Year 3-6, you will encounter forces, and you will learn that gravity is a force. Right? Sorry, you are WRONG!!!!!! Why? Imagine the Sun exploded. It takes (as we know) 8 minutes for light/energy to reach the Earth from the sun. Hey, what a nice letter! Thanks, Mr. President! That … Continue reading Wait, what’s gravity?

Okay, WHAT?!?!
So, um, this is going to be ALL ABOUT FOREIGN LANGUAGES. Vaay Bu eğlenceli olacak! (Turkish for Whoo! This will be fun!) No, this page ain't going to be in a foreign language. But you can translate it. This is about math stuff that uses other languages. Many are Greek, so watch out! Delta (Δ), … Continue reading Okay, WHAT?!?!
Sorry about the horrible interruption…
Remember that I was going to explain to you about the topology = potatoes thing? Okay, here it comes! topology? potatoes? Cross out the common letters to get logy = ates. l can transform into t by growing more arms topologically. so ogy = aes. y can deform into s, so og = ae. Deform … Continue reading Sorry about the horrible interruption…
Comic time!!!!!
I don't have much inspiration on what to write, so I just did a weird comic. I might post more of these if I could make up some more. But for now, enjoy this one: Yeah, I TOTALLY beat Magnus Carlsen in chess! Yeah, the shadow interferes, but you can still read it. 🙂
Topology = potatoes
Say WHAT?!?! You probably were freaked out by that. There hasn't been a post on topology and I want to do one. So ... here comes nothing. To explain the topology and potatoes, we have to use topology, but before that, what even is topology? Topology is an area of mathematics where a pencil is … Continue reading Topology = potatoes
Pythagoras’s theorem^2+n^2 = proof^2
Did anything stand out? maybe the m^2+n^2 = f^2 bit? That is Pythagoras's theorem. That? This is what it's like: Pythagoras's theorem, in triangles and squares Link: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d2/Pythagorean.svg/260px-Pythagorean.svg.png Pythagoras's theorem states that, if the triangle is a right-angled triangle, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Sure, this is one proof: prove it! Link: https://i.stack.imgur.com/POhH1.png But for … Continue reading Pythagoras’s theorem^2+n^2 = proof^2
And surprise!

It's not out yet, but it will be super cool when it is finished! It also includes puzzles, facts, and everything you ever wanted. Have … Continue reading And surprise!
Boroumeen Rings? Trafoel Not? Jouns Pollynoumeal?
NO! THAT IS NOT IT! Okay, what did I do? Borromean rings are three rings all together in a knot, but not any knot: If you remove one, the other two are unstuck. You can make one anytime. Take 3 rings of the same size, and cut one up into a strip of paper. You … Continue reading Boroumeen Rings? Trafoel Not? Jouns Pollynoumeal?
