super advanced math help plz

[homemade]

i was just screwing around doing my math homework and then i just started play with numbers....i think i proved 2=1.....if i'm wrong please tell me where!

A=B
A[squared]=AB
A[squared + B[squared]=AB - B[squared]
(A+B) (A-B) + (A-B)B
A+B=B
B+B=B
2B=B
2=1

My question is why put this on a board with a bunch of people who are high.. I mean one of the effects of cannabis is difficulty solving problems! lol :stoned:

part in bold is wrong just noticed that right off the bat sorry.

you arn't smarter when you are high!

[daZenfmeister]

also to test all you have to do is put real numbers in and see if it comes out.

thanks...sorry capt carl i thought u said ppl who GET high not ARE high..

A=B
A[squared]=AB forgot parenthesis around AB
A[squared + B[squared]=AB - B[squared]
(A+B) (A-B) + (A-B)B
A+B=B
B+B=B
2B=B
2=1

2=2
2^2=(2*2)
2^2 + 2^2=(2*2) - B (where did that B come from?)


also you cant just change a to b whenever you want it just doesnt work when you're using variables or even representative terms like 'A' and 'B' because it allows you to manipulate it and combine/extrapolate more terms when you cant do it with real numbers. Numbers have to retain their identity even when they are equal. its the law ok
