Tensei Kenja no Isekai Life - Ch. 56.3

[EdenOfTheEast]

i really want to see the math problems,
like if its middle school math, it at most includes pythagoras, area of a triangle, intercept theorem and simple sin/cos calculations with like 30°, 60°, 90°.

which makes these problems really simple to solve, if language translation also works on his math writings. otherwise good luck proving pythagoras or what the sqrt(2) is...

You know, at that point I'd be tempted to admit to knowing Priest Steyl and saying he recommended the library for research.

Thanks for the chapter 👍🏼

He knew his objective? It must be common occurrence within the school to the point everybody want to enter the library.

"He's Come"
best first page ever

 

[lenovoaxioo]

I have .phd and i already forget most of my middle school lesson

 

[bakanisan]

No need to overthink that much bro, your Hellfire of Demise gonna obliterate the whole academy!!!

 

[sanctuary]

dumbledore homie kinda buff

Even though those questions definitely are middle school level, it's like hella advanced middle school level that most Americans would only encounter in high school. Plus, it's been such a long time for me that I couldn't imagine solving them, and Yuuji is in his 30s. This guy... how good is his memory?

East Asians hold mystical powers... coming from a Vietnamese btw.

Rote learning. Asians are pretty hot on the principle.
At the cost of flexibility and actual understanding, but you don't want your worker drones to get too creative...

And yes, asian schools have kids learn stuff that'd have american "students" crying in affront and despair. So do most european "highschools" that prepare for higher education.
And expect them to actually remember that stuff beyond the next test.

Almost all of the isekai writers underestimate how much math medieval people know. Euclid, for example, lived in the 300 B.C.s and the famous Fibonacci's postulate works with sequences, series, and ratios students today don't really learn until university calculus classes. Indians were doing advanced trigonometry in the 6th century, the trig value tables you use in high school were written by the medieval Indians. Just a few examples.

People weren't morons and ignorant. If these kind of academies are as advanced as the isekai authors claim to be, your high school math is not going to cut it and chances are, without an advanced education in math, and you go back to the medieval times and wants to enroll in an university, you'd fail the entrance math exam horrifically.

Pythagoras Theorem and algebraic equations are something most East Asian countries teach in lower secondary, meaning right after primary school.

You'd be learning that shit between age 12-15.
I guess that's middle school level?

By upper secondary, we're already starting on calculus and it hurts so much
Also, some "prep" schools go one step further and start teaching University level material in upper secondary.

The scholars will know, but the common person will not. I think it's only somewhat recently that we even have compulsory education for the common person.

They didn't expect someone who was just enrolling to get a perfect score. But it's not like they gave out math problems that they themselves couldn't verify the answers to.

NPCs: You are abnormal.
MC: I came from a faraway land.
NPCs: Say no more, your origins are no longer sus, we shant pry any further..

I mean being relatively amazing at math is unusual but not actually sus, could've just said yeah I'm good at it and left it at that instead of mentioning he came from somewhere far away.

Then uh, someone with particular motives probably would've just been less shit at the other two subjects, it's more just unusual than sus.

Got found out before getting inside the library. lol

Thanks for the chapter
