The Back of the Book
The fourth root of 1
There are four answers.
Discuss.
1 minute
Seriously, discuss, I’ll wait.
No...no one?
I understand your confusion,
There is a negative 1% chance that you would know it
Just kidding, that’s a made up stat.
I don’t mean to be negative, I
Just hoped one of you would take the plunge,
Discuss something we all hate,
Complicated math,
Things that won’t help us in our future.
Our future, hmm.
Maybe that’s what scares us more than math,
The uncertainty,
The probability that we might need to use vectors
When we get older.
I get it,
You never know what’s ahead,
And you might not know what’s afoot either,
But we all have to take our Manifest Destiny at some point.
Expand into the road less traveled,
Adulthood.
While you’re there use some math,
It will do you good to remember those times
When you thought it was going to be hard,
Because you didn’t know the answers,
But I gave them to you long ago,
You already have all you need.
So tell me
The fourth root of 1
No…no one?
I understand your confusion
There was a negative 1% chance
You would know it
Just kidding,
That’s a made up stat.
I don’t mean to be negative, I
Just hoped one of you
Would take the plunge
