Love Triangle - Matt Parker - książka
Producent: Penguin Books
Why is it impossible for two people to witness the same rainbow? What occurs when you deconstruct a pop song into its fundamental sine waves and reproduce it on a piano? Why does the wake formed by a duck consistently create an angle of precisely 39 degrees? How did mathematicians contribute to the chaos during the great pig stampede of 2012? The link to these mysteries lies in the concept of the triangle. In "Love Triangle," stand-up comedian, former math teacher, and Sunday Times bestselling author Matt Parker embarks on a journey to illustrate the significance and charm of triangles. He believes that we should appreciate the role of trigonometry and geometry in our lives. Through his exploration, Parker creates a digital avatar using triangles, navigates a daunting motorcycle adventure, divides a sandwich into equal thirds, and measures the height of buildings while wearing humorous footwear. These seemingly whimsical adventures soon uncover a profound truth: triangles are the fundamental structure underlying modern technology, from GPS and CGI to streaming services like Spotify and even the design of the play button. Follow Matt Parker as he unveils the essence of triangles beyond the familiar realms of Pythagoras and SOHCAHTOA, proving that triangles are integral to everything around us.
