SHEIK One has to remember that not all pi are round.. It could be LXW=area, which in this case is square, especially if made of roots which would make it a square root pi. I’ll show you on my slide rule since Peter hasn’t invented the calculator yet, besides they cost too many clams..
I guess it’s in perfect character for B.C. to be the right-brained one and for Peter to be more analytical. Me, I’ll take pie in whatever shape it will fit into my pie hole.
Wildmustang1262, it’s not a question, it’s a statement, and a true one at that. A square root is the reverse of multiplying a number by itself. 3 times 3 equals 9, so the square root of 9 equals 3.

How about that? Artistic math.

Okay, gang, I’m not big on upper math…..what is that equation??
Good morning LW18 and Yukoner…

Somehow with the big round wheel to write on, I was expecting a reference to π, but the 90º rotation from a goofy face to an equation was really good.

That’s radical.

Pie made of square roots? I prefer lemon meringue, chocolate, apple, pumpkin, cherry, or blueberry pie.
Good Morning Grog, Lonewolf, Little Sister, Tanya, Sir Lew, Johanan, MontanaLady and Everyone!

BC likes his emoticons, and Peter likes his math symbols.

Dagnabbit, guys! All this talk of pies made me hungry! Time to hit the diner!

MLady - The equation says The square root of 9 equals 3.

Pi (e) are round, cornbread are square!
ChazNCenTex almost 14 years ago
Funny and interesting side note - once I saw the equation it was hard to see the emoticon anymore - i just kept seeing 9 = 3 on it’s side.

Sweet potato pie could be square root of pi. YUM!

Integral z-squared dz from 1 to the cube root of 3 times the cosine of three pi over 9 equals log of the cube root of ‘e’

well, THAT certainly clarifies things!

I’m surprised Lew didn’t make a reference to the face. Until he turned the wheel, that was a nice face!
Wildmustang1262 almost 14 years ago
What is that answer after Peter drew on the rock? Anyone knows the answer? Math is NOT my subject. Sorry! :-/

I’ll take any one of those kinds of pies, LuvH8.
Good Sunday Morning, MLady, LuvH8, Grog, Ladywolf, Tanya & Everyone.

Wildmustang: davidf42 got it.
Thus we see the difference between B.C. the screwball and Peter the nerd.

That was great! I was strung along until the end. :-) Now he needs to do something with <3 (aka a sideways heart)

Actually, JanCinVV, it’s not quite a true statement.
Mathematically speaking, √9 = ±3

And the square root of pi has never been been calculated.

Never seen a square root, they all look pretty round to me. However, I read once that the Japanese did invent a square watermelon.
