Rose: Pros and cons of the quiz. You have to know 30 theorems, so that sucks. But on the pro side, you only have to know 30 theorems!

Rose: I am less than prepared today. My role is not to be an intellectual, my role is not to prepare for class. My role is to just grade precalc c quizzes for 12 hours a day. //later Rose: Because I am an intellectual, I spent hours not taking care of my children but instead typing up every step of this proof from Coxeter.

//Advanced Geometry Rose: I used to teach at this school with average kids. They weren't as intelligent as you guys, but if I taught stuff correctly they would understand. I will never forget this girl who often came to math help-- sometimes she'd be alone with us 2 math teachers and say, "I'm intimidated by you two!" Anyway, one day during math help I was demo-ing this classic proof that these triangles are similar, so that I could practice for next class when we actually did it. After I finished she just looked at me and said in the most confused voice, "...wolf pack?" And I was just looking at her like "What?" It turns out that she had never seen the Greek letter alpha besides stuff from biology like "alpha male", so when I used it as an angle, it didn't make any sense to her. //later, Daniel presents an important lemma that Rose had already forgotten from last class Reynald: Mr. Rose, you know that "wolf pack" girl? That's how Daniel views you.

//Advanced Geometry //Dzhu helping Reynald with geogebra Rose: Oh no... when Daniel Zhu is at the computer, weird things start to happen. //later Rose: Okay, Daniel Zhu, explain Pascal's theorem in an intuitive way to me. Daniel: So... Rose: NO COMPLEX NUMBERS! Daniel: Consider the equation for a hyperbola in complex form.
