2^0.5 = root of 2 (about 1.414)

1+1=2
0/0 (This one is tricky)
This comes out to indeterminate because if you try to graph the equation 1/x, as it approaches 0 from 1, it races to infinity, however, if you move to 0 from -1 it races to negative infinity, so basically at 0 you have 2 possible numbers which makes it indeterminate. |

x and y are inversely proportional
when x is 6 18
what is the value of y when x is 8

Urban, I'm trying to work out this impossible problem you gave me.. the hypotenuse can't be equal to another side.
Also, finding "TOH" is a little vague. |

When x is 6, is y 18? or is x 618? |

Oh crap... wrong way around lol
A=32 O=32 Hyp=20 |

| Oh, you fixed it; in that case it should be 8/3 (I'm not too good with inverse relationships, I kinda slept on that week) |

"Oh crap... wrong way around lol

That's... still kinda impossible. By definition, the hypotenuse is the longest side. The shape that'd make is 3 connected lines, a triangle is not made. |

| Did you use the trig table to solve? It's a faction. |

| @Urban No, I just looked at the problem and deemed it impossible, since you didn't tell me what I was solving for, nor is it a triangle since the hypotenuse is smaller than the legs. (Also, even if you switch around the side lengths, you can't have 2 32s since that'd force the hypotenuse to be equal to another side, which doesn't work.) |

| @Jamie I answered it, but I might be wrong, as I said; I slept through that whole lesson on inverse relationships. |
