  This proof is a banger, but I have a proof that the eqation x^n + y^n = z^n has no integer solutions for n > 2 on my buttocks

  Unfortunately I can’t share it with you, as there might be british people on this website.

    Actually, currently all the Lemmy instances are blocking the UK because of the new porn law. So you are safe.

    Formatting is wild there my dawg. Fermat’s sufficiently recognisable tho’ that I know what it meant to say

    The proof is actually pretty simple but the character limit on my instance is too small to contain it

    Your tattoo is likely not a proof, but just a formula. And if I am not mistaken: the assumption that the formula is true, got disproven a few years ago.

  I mean you do you but the most famous undergrad level proof might not be the flex you imagine it to be.

  source

  • FuglyDuck@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    and basic algebra is a bigger flex?

    source

    • socsa@piefed.social ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I suppose if you really pressed me on it I'd say Pythagorean theorem is maybe less tryhard due to its innocence. It's like the Casio watch of basic maths. Euler's identity is like the cheapest Omega. You're kind of hoping the observer recognizes the brand is expensive, but doesn't know more than that.

    Yeah, at least do the fundamental theorem of algebra, or Stokes’ theorem.

  For anyone else that needs the reminder, the one on the right is Euler’s formula.

    It’s amazing how much a visualization can help to explain

    Image

    Like I had to take a few higher level math classes in college since I majored in comp sci, and the difference between a professor just writing notation on a board and rambling for an hour vs a professor explaining application and using visuals to explain was such a wild difference in the quality of classes

  Listen, Pythagoras gives us the hands down best way to tell intelligent life visiting earth that we’re intelligent. Drawing a right triangle and marking the sides with 3 dots, 4 dots, and 5 dots immediately demonstrates that we are a sapient species that has developed mathematics with no need for a device or language. Of course, we’re all carrying devices these days, so maybe that’s no longer relevant.

  source

  • RupeThereItIs@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    If we ever do met intelligent alien life, there’s no guarantee such a thing will make any sense to them.

    I mean, for one, they may not have eyes to see your drawing among a million other likely faulty assumptions in your scenario.

    • Uli@sopuli.xyz ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      But if they evolved to be right triangles with their sides marked by three dots, four dots, and five dots, then the message will be spot on.

    • fishos@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      If they can’t “see”, then how would they every travel intersimensionally? Seriously, they’ve have some form of sight sense, even if it’s braille.

      And the point is that math is indeed universal. The ratio of a triangle will never change. And again, if you’re a space fairing civilization,you’d have figured out triangles. You’re confusing differences in culture with basic rules of the universe. It’d be like saying “what if they don’t know what gravity is?” like they just somehow float around because they’re ignorant of the laws of gravity.

    Left is basic algebra/geometry that allows anyone to find a basic square angle. It’s used daily in construction. You can learn how to use it today by searching “345 triangle”

    Super useful for anyone, even meatheads like me.

      I still don’t get it, doesn’t a square have four 90 degree angles? I’m probably misunderstanding, I’ve never done any sort of calculations in English ever. I’ll Google.

    Left is the Pythagorean equation. Pretty simple, basic equation that’s easy to use and apply.

    Right is an elegant mathematical proof, so a little more “attractive” if you like maths I suppose. 😄
