Math Song
- Transcript
The haves of a tangible quantity must be equal. That's true for a book, a ball or a piece of string. The last in a logical series is called a sequel, which is a gas if you happen to dig that sort of thing. Your bisect and angle by using a ruler and compass. Your bisect and compass by using a good sharp axe. It's hard to say more without starting a heck of a rumpus. And I promise that I might find myself too fat.
The shortest path between two spots will always be a straight, straight line infinity. Means lots and lots. Now, doesn't that send shivers down your spine? An expression relating to equals is called an equation. I give you my word, you need not ask me why. But I've saved until last the most darling information. It's the 3.14592 is pine. Now just think about that, it's pine.
Not pastry or cookies or bagels or brownies, but pine. Oh my, here's 3.14592, 657. And I reach in you, that's pine. That's pine, that's pine. Class dismissed.
