Curate, connect, and discover
I know y’all probably won’t care but something pretty funny happened in my Math class.
I asked a question pertaining to something in the lesson (it had something to do with square roots and negitive signs).
It went as follows
Teacher: okay so if you wrote it like that you get something we call an imaginary number
Me (directly afterwards): so I was confused when we started adding the alphabet to Math now we are adding IMAGINARY NUMBERS?!!?
Teacher: well, you don’t do them in [insert grade] yet
Another student: so your telling me that we are gonna use nonexistent numbers?
Teacher: not nonexistent but imaginary
Same student: THAT’S THE SAME THING!
