Hey math dorks, question.
So, 9-year-old is onto the Pythagorean Theorem. Hooray. Issue: the software she uses is having her do these problems where it gives her 6-digit numbers she needs to take the square root of. They're perfect squares, but the whole thing seems really tedious to work them out.
So... I busted out the calculator. Any reason not to?
