That’s a 192 degree total which is wrong assuming those are parallel lines
Hmmm...

Yeah, it’s funny either way, but would be even funnier if the answer had been correct.

The definition of degree is literally an arbitrary unit of measure, not a specific one.
Its not like measuring Roentgen, which can be good, bad or 3.6 which is “not great, not terrible”

Doesn’t that only work if the teacher is transgender?

That is either a fucking cold or a fucking hot room, wtf?

Looks like normal body temperature in Celsius. it’s probably holding the last measurement, presumably from under someone’s tongue.

It’s body temperature lol
Warl0k3@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Its not in a body tho
JesusChristLover420@lemmy.sdf.org 2 weeks ago
It’s a completely normal temperature for a desert

Yes, I too enjoy ice cream.

I did the calculation and you are wrong both way

Something feels off. Can’t quite put a finger on it.

That’s not how you measure degrees. You use an amateur backhoe

Assuming those lines are parallel, wouldn’t the acute angle be 24.2º?
agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Yeah I was wondering why it added up to 192°. Maybe I’m a freak, but I would’ve measured ambient temperature and drawn a supplementary angle. Also what scale is that thermometer on? That room is either really hot or almost freezing.

Technically there is a notation for parallel lines so you can’t actually assume that, but I agree with everyone else that this would have been funnier if it added up to 180 degrees.
Btw. PSA to young folks, that notation looks like > on each line and some standardized tests will fucking get you on a technically with that shit, especially with the “it’s impossible to know” answer being an option.

He has not reset it between measurements, so its still showing his body temperature, not the angle he is pointing at.
I swear, people dont know how to use measuring equipment anymore. 🙄

Yeah, I think you are missing that this is just a meme.
SapphironZA@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Its a Science meme, details matter!

intentionally wrong for engagement maybe?

I think the most likely answer is that it’s a non-euclidean space.
