    You know, oddly enough, my old ass math deficient brain recognizes the explanation and its application, but not the name or expression. Props to my educators, I might not know all the details, but I can still utilize the principles.

      The one on the left is sort of meaningless without a picture of a triangle, so don’t feel bad.

  Oh, sorry. I meant making a square angle on a surface. Super important in construction

  Can’t make an actual square if you don’t start “square”. Might be different in your language
