    I have used a pizza cutter to cut more than one pizza. I have also wielded a sword, (Ren Fair and fought a dual), and cut pizza with it. I have also field dressed a couple of deer and cut a few pizzas, (along with apples and sandwiches) with a Victorinox Classic keychain pocket knife over the years.

    Of the 3 pieces of cutlery, I find the Victorinox Classic to be the most useful.

      That blade is not infinitely long unless you measure the same part over and over again.

        A sword by definition has a "pointed blade" accordingly any object with an infinitely long blade cannot be a sword. Rather, it's a blade ray.

            This is not a parallelogram and is therefore not a square

                That doesn't make the resultant diagram 90° at those vertices. That's just empiricist stupidity.

                OK, then what angle is it?

                  But that's correct in the image there - they are perpendicular or as you in the US call it "level", they are all 90° and pweze pweze don't forget you're trying to be pedantic in a comments section of a stolen meme in a community called shitposting like just chill 😄

                  It's not pedantry, you just don't know elementary level geometry.

                  https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_angle

                  Right angles must be comprised of two straight lines, and by also by similar definition a curved line can't be perpendicular to fucking anything.

                  That angle can be 90 degrees at the point of intersection because of how angles in this case are measured but it is not a right angle or perpendicular. This why the definition of right angle is more complex than "a 90 degree angle."

                    This image makes me angrier than it should. Those 4 "right angle" designations are all lies. You cannot have a curved line attached to anything and call it a "right angle". It's not. Like, factually. I don't care if it's 2 feet long, or 200,000 miles, it will never be exactly 90°, which invalidates the entire thing.

                    If it’s not a right angle, then what is it? Wouldn’t you just measure the angle between the tangent of the curve and the line? Working with the tangents is how you find the angle between two curves as far as I know. You say it will never be exactly 90 degrees, but it would be 90 degrees at exactly that point. That’s not a weird thing to say from a math perspective.

                    I think a bigger issue with this figure is that they’re using some internal and external angles for their count of 90 degree angles. (And that this is just a ridiculous twist on a square, lol.)

                      Swords without a sharpened point had existed. You could only use them for cutting, not thrusting.

                        pedantic/pə-dăn′tĭk/

                        adjective

                        1. Characterized by a narrow, often ostentatious concern for academic knowledge and formal rules.

                          "a pedantic attention to details."

                        You are very much correct in the fact that angles by definition are only present between straight lines. A secant line that is in the same plane as the circle and is crossing the centre of the circle is called it's normal and a normal is by definition perpendicular. The meme was fun
