    Kona forgot the sides being parallel part. Like missing a step in assembling IKEA furniture, its not gonna turn out right.

    source
    • SomeoneSomewhere@lemmy.nz ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      You don’t normally need to specify that the sides are parallel if you specify four right angles.

    • finitebanjo@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Also pretty sure definition of a shape requires only one enclosed or contiguous area.

      source
      • angrystego@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        This one is enclosed and contiguous though, the lines of the triangle end where the circular line starts. (The rest is just a drafting residue.)

      Those arc sides are parallel in polar coordinates.

    Wouldn’t the angles need to be interior?

      This is merely a projection of a square on the surface of a cone projected onto a plane.

      This is also not a polygon. It has infinite and 2 sides at the same time.

      This actually has six right angles if you include exterior ones.

    A square has all right angles inside the structure. This thing has two inside and two outside.

    source
    • WolfLink@sh.itjust.works ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      If you add that to the definition, you could still have a “square” with a segment of a circle connecting the edges in the middle

      source
      • Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Then that section would be of a shorter length.

      But arent the ones from the circle 90 degrees on the inside of the circle as well?

      source
      • cows_are_underrated@feddit.org ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        This is true, however now it has 4 inside and two outside the structure, so it now has something a square doesn’t has.

    This is what AI would give you after countless tries strating with a triangle and having gone up the Pentagon and down to two pairs of unconnected parallel lines…but what if all equally sized lines were connected? Bam! This

    source
    • Hackworth@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Fun Fact: It is very difficult to get any of the image generators to make a pentagon.

      source
      • AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        I thought this couldn’t be true, so using one of the newer models (4bit flux) I told it to make a 5 sided star, and then put lines around the outside

        Image

        lol this is very weird, did they forbid it from looking at pentagons in the training data or something? it can’t do The Pentagon either, it gives it 8-12 sides instead

    A square? A square?! Wake up sheeple! That things not even a rombus! Don’t you see the lies? Look at the lines! Look! Not all rhombuses are squares, but all squares are rhombuses! All squares are rhombuses and look at this thing they try to call a square. Where are the parallel lines? There’s got to be parallel lines, don’t you see, or then it’s not a rombus and all squares are rhombuses. Don’t forget that, don’t let them take that fact from you and perpetuate their geometric lies. Does no one even remember what a rombus is? This is, this is basic geometry here that you should have learned in middle school or elementary school, but then you just forget it, and let people trick you with these misleading definitions and fancy diagrams but you have to remember that a Square. Is. A. Rombus.

    source
    • cram42@mander.xyz ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      And all rhombus are parallelograms. By definition opposing sides must be parallel.

    The angle of the arc in degrees is (180π-90)/π², or if you’re a person of culture, the angle is (2π-1)/2π

    source
    • jdeath@lemm.ee ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      so that doesn’t seem like 90 but I’m just guessing

      source
      • propter_hog@hexbear.net ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        That angle doesn’t count. It’s just for constructing the straight lines; it’s not part of the “square”.

    Does this even meet the criteria for “a shape”? I’d have thought you need to be able to travel from any point within the shape to any other point, without crossing a line.

    source
    • saltesc@lemmy.world ⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      The part showing the angle is not part of it. They should’ve made it a dotted line or something.
