Mathmaticians: at least I'm not wrong
2026 students: Why is our math book so large?

I hate to be that one guy, but... ErM aKsHuLy, the concept of a number that, when multiplied by itself, would be negative, has been around for a while. If I remember right, when this one guy brought forward the idea, it was considered ridiculous, and Descartes called them "imaginary" and the term stuck. So, they didn't like the idea of it for a while, but imaginary numbers actually are quite useful in a lot of areas like engineering.☝️🤓

I don't think I speak that language

You forgot Quantum physics

I said "a lot of areas LIKE engineering." I wasn't excluding anything. Good to know, though

ay
wass up bruhski?

Wow, that's a lot of words... Too bad I'm not reading them...

stfu

yOUUUUUUU

YOU

sqrt(-1)

its i

Nuh -1

Scientists inventing imaginary theories instead of admitting they're wrong:

This comment proves that this generation is so cooked

adults wondering why kids have such different math

real there like its easy maybe for u but i'm just a kid and my life is a nightmare

Lmao 😂

HS Calculus student here, can confirm that imaginary numbers are indeed on some actual nonsense. Just had to do a brief assessment today where we had to graph the derivatives of rational functions (basically draw a funny curved line using long stupid math equation that involves a damned fraction) and part of one problem involved square roots pretty heavily.

You cannot take the square root of a negative number in math; that is what an imaginary number would be considered. no math concept since Algebra II used imaginary numbers. They really don't do all that much. :/

Wrong? Then try solving x² + 1 = 0

Bro really thinks he has a better understanding of math than mathematicians

i'm just gonna say ur not wrong

Lmao 😂😂😂

😂😂

Meanwhile, quaternions:

Reskin the teeth.
