This isn’t intuitive to people?
2/sqrt(2) = ( sqrt(2)*sqrt(2) ) / sqrt(2)
Then cancelling out one of the sqrt(2)
s in the numerator with the sqrt(2)
in the denominator, you’re left with sqrt(2)
.
I do a lot of toodling around in OpenSCAD, though, and sqrt(2)
tends to come up a lot because, you know, Pythagoras and right triangles and all that.
Too soon.
