What you say makes no sense.

The problem is LITERALLY unsolvable if we can’t assume that all the lines are straight.

The schematic was OF COURSE purposefully drawn in a way to make the viewer assume that the third angle of the left triangle is 90°, making the angle to it’s right also be 90°, but the point of the exercise is to get the student to use ALL the given information instead of presuming right angles.

And NO, assuming all the lines are straight is NOT unreasonable, it is the only way that the problem could ever possibly have a solution.

The sum of the angles of a triangle are always 180°

Unless there are lines that are not straight in the image (which would make the calculation of x literally impossible), the third angle of the triangle in the left has to be 80°, making the angle to its right to be 100°, making the angle above it to be 45°, making the angle above it to be 135°. This is basic trigonometry.

I just found out that I am actually from Iowa ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

In this instance it is kinda appropriate though, since those were fire-arrows…

I’ve heard this in Greece as well.

Ah, there it is.

We will probably be underwater in 2030.

I think that I should become a captain in a supertanker…

The American revolution might be the exception that confirms the rule, since the new regime (Congress and the President) seem to have not persecuted, legally or extra legally, any Americans or their allies who fought against Britain after the war was won. I at least could not find any examples of this. Benedict Arnold doesn’t count since he did, beyond any doubt, commit treason against the revolution and rightfully was persecuted for his actions.

Cromwell’s station in the revolution of Parliament against king Charles was very minor during the first half of the civil war. But he rose to prominence and thereafter many of his former allies were persecuted (with the exception of lord Thomas Fairfax).

Castro persecuted many of his former allies after Batista was ousted from Cuba, including Manuel Urrutia Lleó and Huber Matos Benítez (and also maybe Camilo Cienfuegos Gorriarán, since his accident happened during a very convenient moment)…

Stalin. REALLY??? He had Trotsky killed two continents away and more communist party members died because of him than because of the Tzar!

As all revolutions always do

“There are already several flags for that.”

Yes. And in fact, a couple of those flags plagiarize ancient Hindu symbols… See if you can find which (hint: it’s not the lotus…)

Whoosh

But only if you have purple eyes

“Just use the keyboard!”

This is some Black Mirror shit right here.

But what about asexual people?

“We do not talk about it!”

This also happened in an episode of The Outer Limits (spoilers: https://theouterlimits.fandom.com/wiki/The_Light_Brigade)
