By confusing the hypothesis with the hypotenuse, by adding axioms to postulates, or by construct- ing medians as altitudes, Sophomores produced overwhelming proofs. The more ambitious of the upperclassmen resorted to a diet of pencil stubs in trying to solve the trignometric functions of X, y, or z. Erasures mounted. Sheets of paper cycled fruitlessly into the wastepaper basket. Finally, burst- ing into a eureka, the frustrated mathematician discovered I error. - his D TANGLING WITH TRIANGLES.
