Ah...yeah of course

That's cool!

Captain · 61-69, M

Hilairious - makes you think !

Briggett · T

Ok so how is this puzzle solved?

DrWatson · 70-79, M

@Briggett There is nothing to solve . It's just a
5-12-13 right triangle and a multiple thereof.

SomeMichGuy · M

@DrWatson ...and the linear date distances also work.

7 + 1 = 8
14 + 2 = 16

Briggett · T

@DrWatson 3,4,5,?

SomeMichGuy · M

@Briggett
Pythagorean theorem

3-4-5 right triangles
3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2

9 + 16 = 25

I know a TV show where that would be considered proof aliens have visited us

DrWatson · 70-79, M

@Captain The last two letters of "Pythagoras" are the first two letters of "asteroid".

Coincidence?

I think not!

Captain · 61-69, M

@DrWatson Yes but I don't consider that strong evidence that it isn't aliens either;..😀

Are we just going to ignore 3,4,5; 8,15,17; and 7,24,25??

@ElwoodBlues We're not allowed to fold the calendar.

DrWatson · 70-79, M

@ElwoodBlues But 3-4-5 don't form a triangle on the calendar.
