Ice-oseles traingles

It’s a protracted effort.

I want to see 270 degrees! Let’s really tweak that back!

What, no 90°? That’s just not right.

I just lay down and make an angel with my arms and legs.

That 30° angle looks more like a 45° angle.

The 45° angle looks closer to a 60° angle.

How do they sine them?

If it rhymes with dangle, it’s not an angel.

Boy, these comments went off on a tangent

Calling all angels…

Remember, if it wasn’t for geometry, life would be pointless.

I did a 98.6° angle, but the snow melted.

Everybody’s got an angle.

Cute.

Pi R round, cornbread R square

When children do this it’s so acute, but when adults are still doing this, they just end up looking obtuse, regardless of the actual measurement in degrees.

Right?

literally lol!

I wonder if they like “angle food” cake.

Is that Celsius or Fahrenheit?

Euclid say that today’s commenters have encompassed all the geometry puns (though you might not have proof).

30 degrees would be difficult for most non-gymnasts.

If those are Fahrenheit degrees, the one to our left will stay frozen, the one in the middle can be expected to melt slowly, but the one to our right will evaporate rapidly, and the angel-maker is in grave danger.

so obtuse…

Some acute observations they’re making.

I thought that the person doi g tbe 45° one was using both legs, not there arms and legs.
