When Wrong Math Accidentally Gets The Right Answer
Look at this mathematical masterpiece where $(2+3)^2$ is expanded as $2^2 + 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 + 3^2$. The creator has accidentally stumbled upon the correct answer through completely wrong reasoning! This is the mathematical equivalent of saying "I don't know how I got here, but I'm exactly where I need to be." The formula they've used doesn't exist in any textbook, but somehow they've reinvented the binomial expansion $(a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2$ through sheer mathematical chaos. It's like driving to the grocery store with your eyes closed and still managing to park perfectly. The math gods must have been feeling generous that day!
