Love Triangle: The Life-changing Magic of Trigonometry

Details of this Event

 

Tonight we will discuss Love Triangle: The Life-changing Magic of Trigonometry by Matt Parker (a Sunday Times number one bestseller).

In this informative and entertaining book, Parker explains the importance of triangles. Examples include why no two people ever see the same rainbow and why a duck's wake always forms an angle of 39 degrees. He also describes how to cut a sandwich into three equal parts and measure the height of London's tallest building by using its shadow. 

The book can be purchased from David’s Bookshop in Letchworth (LALG discount makes it very competitively priced) or ordered from the library.
