Here is a (very) easy enigma Find out the problem xD
We firstly fix :
X=1 and by definition, X = X (Don't tell me you don't understand ._.)
<=> X² = X² (square)
<=> X² - X² = X² - X² (subtract X²)
<=> X(X - X) = (X + X)(X - X) (Factorize, Note that a²-a²=a(a-a), and that a²-b²=(a+b)(a-b))
<=> X = X + X (Simplify)
<=> X = 2 X (addition)
<=> 1 = 2 (because X = 1)
1=2 ?? OMGG .____.
If you can't find the reason why it is buggy, click on the spoiler
The problem comes from those 2 lines :
<=> X(X - X) = (X + X)(X - X) (Factorize)
<=> X = X + X (Simplify)
Indeed, you simplify dividing by (X-X), which is equal to zero, which is IMPOSSIBLE
Hehe
Hope you liked x)

Because one side is x2 - x 2 while the other is 2x...
Why not? :O
take x=2, it makes
2(2-2) = 0
and
(2+2)(2-2) =0
so 2(2-2)=(2+2)(2-2) ._.
Do it with a and b if you prefer
a²-a²=a(a-a) (a is factorized) = (a*a)-(a*a) (developed) = a²-a² so a²-a²=a(a-a)
a²-b²=(a+b)(a-b) (that's a rules, you can develop it to be sure of it)
so you have
a(a-a) = (a+a)(a-a) so X (X - X) = (X + X) (X - X)

The first line :O..
X=X.. it's as if you were saying 10000=10000 (it's an useless line)
In addition, you just state that X=1.

Eh, X*X = X² and X+X = 2X
Take X=4
4*4 = 4²=16 and 4+4=8 which isn't 16

Oh.. Integrals and three-dimensional vectors .. Old days .. I just didn't think anyone would understand integrals on forums lul

oww
I'll give you some maths lessons if you want

This "demonstration" shows you why dividing by 0 is impossible : it would make incoherences such as 1=2
At the end, you get X=2X, and you stated that X=1 so basically, 1=2x1=2, which is impossible

You could show (X+X)(X-X), which gets X^2+X^2-X^2-X^2=0
And so X(X-X)=0, which you can check by first solving in the parenthesis, X-X=0. Then X(0)=0, so 0=0 which means that the incorrect portion is the X(X-X)=(X+)(X-X) in which it just ends there, there are no 1s or 2s.

I see what I did wrong. (x+x) (x-x) is 2x timessss 0. My brain shut down and thought there was a + in the middle of the two. (x-x) gives 0 and 2x x 0 = 0.
If practice makes perfect and perfection is impossible, why practice?
Oh, wait... No need to practice. iHax.
