Interesting take on the usual "MC has advanced knowledge" trope; instead of portraying the natives as idiots, it actually went the logical route and invented a different method to arrive at the same answer.

Though, it does make me wonder if that other method actually works.
Based on what was written on the board, that was basically the proof for the Pythagorean theorem. It seems like they simple hadn’t distilled it down to a simple formula.

I came to the comments expecting a discussion about math, and I was not disappointed. Obviously I had to check it myself even if I kind of knew what the result would be, but yeah, that's a good visualisation for how you construct the starting formula. Then simplify.

Also, page 4 is very much varying degrees of want.

Am I the only one that knew the answer from memorization? After all 3:4:5 is a Pythagorean triplet.
As always when someone asks, "Am I the only one?" no, you're not the only one. You never are. Most people probably just thought it was too obvious to comment on, and went on to more advanced stuff to flex on.

Notice how none of the students are grown men or women despite them having a difficult fighting test among experienced adventurers.

Except maybe of this guy but dunno

If Yuuji doesn't want it, he should've just said it. This is his own fault.

TL;DR: They have Geometry without Algebra.

Symbolic algebra supposedly emerged in 1500s.
Simpler algebra supposedly much before that in 800s.
And geometric equations up to 3700 to 4600 BC.

So I think takeaway is "society in this fictional isekai is stuck in the Dark Ages" because of those salvation creeps and dragons.

tldr: the civilisation here already has the proofs and methods to get there, they just haven't optimised the formulas down to our modern equivalents.

It's not that Yuuji is cheating or anything, he just had the benefit of standing upon the work of past geniuses, and having those optimisations delivered globally via modern technology.

I tried watching the anime of this and it really isn't anywhere near as good as the manga because it doesn't have Yuuji's tired, wry internal commentary.

That's pretty much because they'll do what he says

Humans arent like that

Too many people are cocky and have inflated egos, even if someone has a good rep for excellence there are still people who dont listen to people in charge
Yup, true true. To add on it, most slimes are just there for Yuuji to cast his remote magic. If take out the personality, the slimes are just drones that's connected to Yuuji.

Also, the student standards are not equal to Yuuji standards. Remember the guild test? Most of the participants is dead tired to stay up a whole night while it is just another tuesday for Yuuji.

We have triangular question
But triangular theory hasn't been found yet?
The world was once destroyed by true dragon and the device that annihilate everything.

The probability of educational books also gone is high since people prefer preserve human lifes than books in face of extinction.

Basically Pythagoras Theorem is rediscovered.

With constant fight for your life with monsters is an everyday occurrence, higher education are only for the elites.

Aright! This is getting tough to read; his inability to function above the level of a moron in social situations usually isn't this bad, and the worse it gets the less I enjoy reading.
The "fremdschämen" is getting way too strong, and the exaggeration of Japanese submission is past ridiculous and into stupid af.

The reason why i still follow this series even tho it was an isekai is bcoz of the comedy on it is good enough to makes me laugh

It’s so rare to read a funny academy arc, usually you see it as a den of bitches and dickheads When they mention “royal academy”
