The Fourth Rule: No Solving Impossible Math Problems

The classic "assume a spherical cow" approach to problem-solving strikes again! Engineers and physicists love to simplify reality into neat little equations by ignoring pesky things like friction and air resistance. Sure, your calculations say you'll slide to lunch at Mach 3, but reality has other plans. Those penguins strutting with such confidence perfectly capture that moment when theoretical elegance meets practical disaster. Next time your calculations predict teleportation to the cafeteria, remember these smug little birds and maybe factor in that we don't live in a vacuum.

The math function literally forms a smiley face! That integral of arcsin(sin(x)) turns into this beautiful mathematical expression that, when graphed, creates the universal symbol of happiness. It's like the function is saying "I solved myself and now I'm grinning about it." Mathematicians spend years learning calculus just to discover that equations have a better sense of humor than most people.

The most brilliant math joke hiding in plain sight! This shows France's map as a mathematical revolution around the z-axis—literally a "French Revolution." The country is rotating in 3D coordinate space, with the blue representing the post-revolution orientation. Mathematicians and historians collectively shedding tears of joy at this perfect pun. Next time someone asks what polar coordinates are good for, just point to this masterpiece of computational humor. Marie Antoinette might have lost her head, but this graph is losing its axis!

Ever had that moment when a seemingly simple math problem turns into an existential crisis? That's what we're seeing here! The exam question "Prove that 1+1=2" for a whopping 100 marks is the mathematical equivalent of asking someone to explain why water is wet... in 50 pages. What makes this hilarious is that proving 1+1=2 is actually a notoriously complex problem in formal mathematics! Bertrand Russell and Alfred North Whitehead needed 360 pages in their "Principia Mathematica" to build up enough logical framework to prove this "obvious" fact. The contrast between the cartoon character's blissful ignorance and the other's horrified realization is every math student's nightmare come true! Next time your professor says "this should be easy," remember this meme and prepare your nervous breakdown accordingly!

The product of two imaginary numbers giving you a real number? That's not just math—that's mathematical alchemy. Complex numbers (a+bi) multiplied together often produce real results, much like how combining two terrible ideas in the lab sometimes yields a publication. The universe runs on these elegant numerical conspiracies while mathematicians sit back and smugly watch everyone else catch up.

The green rage monster is weeping because he can't remember the formula for a triangle's perimeter—which is hilariously simple: just add the three sides together! The commenters are making it worse by suggesting ridiculous formulas like "0.25 x 4 x perimeter" (which is just the perimeter) and "pi multiplied by radius of the triangle" (triangles don't even have radii!). The real tragedy? Even with gamma-irradiated super-brain, basic geometry remains his kryptonite. Guess smashing buildings is easier than passing 3rd grade math!
