:bike: ... On the road again (and singin' this tune)

Now, I'm heading to Tripartite Square, where I plan to dine at Fond of Pi? :cheers:
after visiting the three-dimensional abstract of the geometry toy box at the Gallery of Squared Circles (GoSC)*
in the town square (naturally, would we expect "town circle" or "town triangle"?
... but there is a quizzical circular drive around the square, crossing the sides at eight points). :scratch:

:? * An entertaining variety of pronunciations for GoSC ...
Squared circle aficionados tend to exclaim "Gosh!" as they tour the gallery,
but the Lindemann genus often mumble "Gauche!" or protest "Go See" (the proven math).
And the Suggestion Box often receives comments that "genus" is misspelled. ;)

:roll But all visitors claim their free slice at Fond of Pi? before returning home.

:?: Did someone say "Gallery of Squared Circles"?

GoSC embellished the story, but I had assumed that "story" was the sufficient reality. Wrong! I'm not certain what I was searching for most of the day, while "on the road again", but a sense of project completion that seemed necessary was elusive. :(

:scratch: After a full day of CAD exploration and doodling, I had seen many of the familiar geometric lines and objects ... even in new and interesting combinations! "How is one more design going to improve the portfolio?" I wondered. "There are just too many patterns in the toy box! Squared circle patterns are all alike: intriguing, mesmerizing, spectacular ... even unbelievable (geometrically speaking)."

Eventually, the portfolio's geometric Postscript began emerging from the doodles: :farao:
seven overlapping circles, all effectively squared; this should be the "finale"! However, I'll take my time with this design now that I know what geometry needs to be displayed. Besides, my little black mouse always at hand is more than saturated with today's quality time.

I tried to think of a potential title for this design (the title is often the computer file name) and could only proffer: "Rum Raisin". :roll:
Maybe this cool, sweet treat will be the best nourishment for creative energy and well-being to explore the design potential
of seven integrated circles, all squared. 8)

:o I quickly realized that this geometry - these seven circles - could require weeks of creativity to create impressive designs (and even more impressive designs could be created later, depending on one's color palette).

So, this first version defaulted to the project's mission: share geometric designs that promote circle-squaring geometry; geometry that visually suggests that "squaring the circle" is indeed possible. :roll

"Incorrigible" came to mind when I contemplated why I haven't stayed "on the road again".

:study: So, I Googled synonyms: inveterate, habitual, confirmed, hardened, dyed-in-the-wool, incurable, chronic, irredeemable, hopeless, beyond hope; impenitent, unrepentant, unapologetic, unashamed; bad, naughty ...

I'll compromise: "naughty" is the operative word (I keep postponing yard work ... and it's pleasantly cool now for this manual labor!) :roll:

:scratch: Wondering if Santa is reaching for his "Naughty or Nice" list, I glanced at the computer clock: 3:49. Hmmm ... I sense a prompt, but 3:49? Then, I remembered that these numbers are part of a line length that I've been trying to identify as a geometric clue: 1.349478..

:o Now, 4:03 is displayed as I type (relates to the 62.403.. angle of the squared-circle-defining radius).
Minutes later, 4:07 is displayed (relates to 0.70710678.., half the square root of 2).

Apparently, I'm naughty but can earn "nice" if I complete the Wedge of Pi design today.
I might even start trimming the hedge ... tomorrow. ;)

I then wondered if I'm really seeing "prompts" ... so, I peeked: 4:22.
Aha! :hithere ABC-22 may be the operative operative, cruising nearby.

Well, an early afternoon nap would be welcome right now (and might energize my creativity for the design later) , but I glanced at the clock to see if it was too early for a nap: 4:33. Who announced this prompting party?

However, I'll just assume that the Wedge of Pi geometry is getting ever closer to the goal :sunflower:
... and take a good nap now.

I see where this is going ... :cheers:

:geek: Apparently, the recent geometry well-presents the foundational lines, angles, and objects of a squared circle. Most likely, the ongoing theme will remain "convincing patterns", despite my desire to find something else (e.g., "solution"). A more complicated design (or at least as complicated as Wedge of Pi) is now emerging from the creativity sandbox.

:thumright: So, for my own benefit as well, "Let There Be No Doubt" (LTBND) is the best choice of title for this next convincing pattern.

:flower: Re: ZzPT (new design)

According to legend, the mysterious story of Zzzz and its "short nap" version, Zz, was quietly shelved by the Squared Circles Committee (SCC); only the geometry was permitted publication ... and with minimal explanation. The intent was to maintain popular belief that squaring a circle is impossible. After all, this fact had been proven mathematically - end of story!

Today, the widely accepted "impossibility" still reigns but has been challenged by a recent revelation ... :roll

:study: In a diary found in a dusty old attic, reference to a missing page of the original hand-written story of Zzzz is recorded. The diary entry refers to a plastic overlay for the page showing the Zz geometry. Further, the missing overlay was noted as being explicitly removed by an SCC agent because it suggested the existence of geometric proof of a squared circle.

Well, an intriguing diary entry but still not much of a revelation! However, when the contents of the attic were removed later for house demolition, a certain plastic page was noticed on top of the debris in a trash can. By this time, the diary had already been moved to temporary storage for a planned "garage sale".

Long story short ... :arrow:

The demolition team's custodian, who had briefly inspected that plastic page, was also a customer during the garage sale later that year. He had not kept the plastic page, but easily remembered the simple geometric object: an isosceles right triangle. Of course, he was aware that many of the items for sale were saved from the house that had been demolished. But not until he browsed the pages of the diary did he know that the plastic page in the trash can and the diary's story about Zzzz were related.

:geek: Having been properly diagnosed with the "disease" of morbus cyclometricus (MC), this professional geometer had been asked to resign several years before his planned retirement. Since his severance pay was adequate, he worked part time for the demolition company and spent frugally while pursing impulsive MC explorations. After all, MC has no observable symptoms unless one talks about the rare appetite for this "impossible" geometry. "A secret shared is an oxymoron." was one of his favorite quotes (found online once during his many daily hours of surfin').

But I digress ... :roll:

One day while surfin', this hapless geometer was contemplating the diary's entry about Zzzz and its seeming relation to the plastic page when he chanced upon archived material showing the Zzzz geometry. "Not that impressive!" he thought ... "And aptly titled, considering the repetitive geometry and allusion to snoring. But it does well-represent the geometry of a squared circle." (he knew this thanks to the incessant motivation and inspiration of his MC affliction).

:scratch: "So, what was the purpose, meaning, and value of the plastic overlay?" he wondered. Within minutes, the baffling "ZzPT" note in the diary's entry had revelatory meaning: "PT" referred to Pythagoras' Theorem and its cursive attachment to "Zz" hinted that the overlay - the isosceles right triangle - performed geometric magic (or so he fantasized).

Indeed, when he reconstructed the Zz geometry, including his conjectured dimensions of the right triangle, angular magic seemed to materialize. The right triangle, as an overlay of the Zz scalene triangle, revealed identical 17.403.. degree angles and intimated proof that the circle is squared!

So, what is that proof? I don't know! His lips are still ZzPT. :shock:

:flower: Re: ZzPT design ("just one more" line)

Deep sleep was elusive last night because I was certain that someone on the email exchange would ask (about the overlay) "Which isosceles right triangle?" And I had already prepared a clever response: "Yes".

:geek: You see, with CAD software, geometric objects (as well as lines) can be drawn as overlays, one on top of the other. In fact, to create designs from the CAD geometry, colored objects have to be drawn in specific order to best highlight aspects of the geometry.

By morning, one hapless member of the exchange had accidentally reset his anti-spam setting to "Default". And this allowed recent geometry comments to roll into his workspace. Being a competent geometer, he had noticed that two isosceles right triangles were integrated with the scalene triangle. :roll:

:( So, the humor of my "Yes" was ambushed by his geometric discernment. Therefore, the only possible response now is the simple fact of the object overlay order: The yellow isosceles right triangle is the final and salient overlay (the object on the missing plastic page of the diary).

Unfortunately, the simple ZzPT geometry became a bit complex as more lines and objects were included to embellish the story. Nonetheless, the geometry is valid - the myth of the missing diary page provides subtle research guidance for those afflicted with MC: ;)

:idea: This "missing page" device advises that squared circle geometry needs to be studied as movable and contrasting geometric objects on a Cartesian palette, hopefully with lines drawn in contrasting colors (comprehension of this geometry without contrasting colors is nearly impossible, IMO).
