Used to love the CRC Math Tables and Formulae. Mandatory text for engineers to rest beside one’s slide rule in its leather holster and the pocket protector with mechanical pencil.
Back in junior high I was reading one of the Lord of the Rings books during lunch. A friend asked if I was reading a dictionary. Most of the table cracked up.

It was pretty awesome how he had us thinking the circle did it and then, POW, it was the triangle all along!

Surely if it’s a FULL circle it’s be π r^2

But did the author sine it? Did the author get to the root of things and what power did it leave you with?

Why are you so angry, Paige? Jason could be doing much worse than puns right now.

Sounds like a geometry textbook and not a math one.
