More Info on this Design
About the Design
This graphic features the equation √-4 = 2 followed by the phrase "It's all fun and games until someone loses an i." The design cleverly highlights a common mathematical misconception, pointing out the missing imaginary unit 'i' required for the equation to be correct in complex numbers.
What the Phrase Means
The phrase is a witty mathematical pun on the idiom "It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye." In mathematics, the square root of a negative number introduces the imaginary unit 'i', making the correct solution 2i. The joke plays on the absence of 'i' in the presented equation, making it humorously incorrect to those familiar with complex numbers.
