1 + 1 Simplified

Engineering & Science Humor - RF CafeThese engineering and science tech-centric jokes, song parodies, anecdotes and assorted humor have been collected from friends and websites across the Internet. I check back occasionally for new fodder, but it seems all the old content is reappearing all over (like this is). The humor is light-hearted and clean and sometimes slightly assaultive to the easily-offended, so you are forewarned. It is all workplace-safe.

Humor #1, #2, #3

Every new engineer must learn early that it is never in good taste to designate the sum of two quantities in the form:

1 + 1 = 2      (eq. 1)


We all know from higher mathematics that:

1 = ln e,  and    1 = sin2 x + cos2 x   (eq. 2a, 2b)

further:       2 =      (eq. 3)


Therefore, Eq.(1) can be expressed more scientifically as:

ln e + (sin2 x + cos2 x) =       (eq. 4)


This may be further simplified by use of the identities:


      and            (eq. 5)


Eq.(2) may therefore be rewritten:


     (eq. 6)


It should by now be clear that Eq.(6) is a much more exact form of Eq.(1). Further proof, if needed, is left for the reader.
