Impossible Curve, Solved!

its not a curve
but a segment of a polygon. A curve as shown would require the same procedure but with an infinite number of loci.

  in theory yes, you are right... but for our eyes, it's a curve, and the bet woud be good. lol, nice reply to the loser of the bet tough... '' i ain't giving me my money. This is not a curve, it doesn't have an infinite of loci'' ! lmao

  thank you! finally someone shuts these people up....i dont know why everyone needs to prove they are so smart....if they were so smart, they would be out finding ways to make money, or get girls, or...having fun...instead of trying to make themselves feel important on metacafe

  once again the judgmentalists step up to the plate and once more they strike out. Your lack of insight is obvious. Educated people need to scramble around to make money ?? are celibate?? and dont have fun?? it is clear where your mind is, lol.

  thanks for getting the point. I feel if someone wants to share information he has the obligation to make sure it is correct. very good insight from 15 year old. Your english is very good, much better than most :-))

  Do you miss the point totally? I bashed no one but corrected something misleading so the misconception would go no farther. If you wish to live in darkness go for it as I see it makes you happy. Dont think you speak for anyone here. I dont shut up because i do care. Your comment is a reflection of an angry ignorant child.

- Pretty smart actually...
  it's actually pretty clever, you need to draw a tangent to find the gradient of a curved graph, so he drew many tangents and you get a curve...

- it is clever
  and every tangent would be on that curve. it is just not a true curve because of course the sections between the tangents are straight.

  are the one who miss the point. The video show how to draw a curve, better that one who could actually be made only by hand. But, think it over, who will win a discussion, Mike Tyson or Stephen Hawkins?. Last one could speak just like you, but first will kill him at once....so the winner is....the last who survive.

  what are you talking about? he used a ruler and right angle to set himself up. all i would need is a piece of string and it would be a true curve. in a couple of sentences you went from geometry to survival in the octagon.. damn more geometry.. if we are locked in a room he may win... if we can move freely.. the reach of my mind is much longer than tysons arms and he will not be last survivor.

not a curve
thats not a curve, its made up of straight lines. it is impossible to draw a curve with lines as there will allways be straight lines. the video above shows how to draw an illusion of a curved edge.

you are all wrong
at the atomic level, there is no curve. there is no line, we aren't really here, merely a coincidental grouping of atoms. :)

You don't remember the kits with nails, board and colored strings to do the same thing out years ago? It was the rage then, looks crappy now though. You can find it in any local thrift store by the bunches.

Project
I did this in Grade 8 for art class. I had fun doing this, some simple lines could make a nice picture. Also the border lines dont have to be a cross, just make some outline and connect the dots.

Fun for kids??
I dont know , but i think that something fun for kids is a cartoon or a toy, not a bunch of lines that you cant throw, hit , or play with... Any way , im not a kid and i loved your vid , keep posting.

Nope
While the drawing looks like a curve from a distance, it is actually several straight lines. There is a difference. If you zoomed in on the drawing this would be obvious.

why
are people so retarded as to think that they have to show up everyone about what they just learned in geometry class. its obvious its not a REAL curve. its impossible to draw a REAL curve or a REAL circle because its impossible to make an infinite number of anything. its just CALLED the impossible curve to amaze little kids. its just plan looks cool. so people need to shut the hell up and stop being douchebags.

It is labelled 'Fun for Kids'
Not 'Geometry for mathematicians', so I suppose a little leeway is in order.
Their schoolteachers will soon disabuse them on their erroneous notions.
