So did he win a prize?
Yes, but it was third place. You should see the other submissions.

…………..4….I found it!
Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
8^2 + 4^2 = x^2
64 + 16 = x^2
80 = x^2
√80 = x
4√5 = x
Final Answer: x = 4√5
Wrong!
4^2 + x^2 = 8^2
x^2 = 8^2 – 4^2
x^2 = (2*4)^2 – 4^2
x^2 = 2^2 * 4^2 – 1*4^2
x^2 = (4-1)*4^2
x^2 = 3 * 4^2
x = √(3 * 4^2)
x = √3 * 4
Final Answer: x = 4√3
Uhhh…I did the a^2+b^2=c^2, and I got this:
4^2+x^2=8^2
16+x^2=64
64-16=x^2
48=x^2
x=square root of 48
x=approximately 6.928
Looks a bit like Invader Zim wearing a kofia and sticking his tongue out.
This should be on somuchpun
Um, sq root 48 and 4*sq root 3 are the same thing.
Mmph…sorry, Mic and Mathemagician. I wasn’t paying attention.
I always just do math the easy way and come up with an easy answer. I am good at math; I just really wasn’t thinking. I am
Well, at least I got the right answer!
*so* embarrassed right now.
Great, it’s a bridge with an attitude. I mean, what’s the bridge going to think when it sees this perfectly drawn bridge sticking it’s tongue out???
