Today, I had to Google how to find the area of a circle. I'm working on my PhD in engineering. FML

No no no! Smart is a verb! I see where you're coming from though. To nazi for the basic stuff.

We all forget the basics sometimes op. It's alright. There was a professional baseball player who was messing up simply for not focusing on the ball. :)

# 1 is right is a way. When u learn new, more advanced things, basic knowledge sorta just disappears

56, you do realize that pre calculus is times tables for OP, right?

If she doesn't know the area of a circle, the times tables might be a challenge as well.

Who cares why the OP is going for the PhD. Good job for not just doing the bare minimum!

As an engineer, I can tell you that you'll probably never stop looking up "basic" equations. being an engineer is more about creatively solving problems than remembering a few equations.

Why the fuck am I being thumbed down for saying the right answer, while others, who have done the same, are not? Do you people have something against your dirty old uncle?

You got that half right, I talk too much and it translates into my comments, yes, but I've looked very deeply into my soul, I even hired a PI to check out deep dark secrets I know nothing about. I learned I have an irrational fear of cotton candy, when I was four I thought a parakeet was going to kill me and ever since I love bunt cake, and that my subconscious is cheating on me, but nowhere did I find even a tiny scrap of attention whore-ness. Sure the signs are there, but they indicate something far stranger than what you are picking up. Sorry, try again?

^2 is to the power of two. To the power of two is also referred to as a number squared. Nice try.

Op...solutions manuals are not the answer (no pun intended). I'm an ME senior and appalled at how many...idiots...have made it this far using those, but maybe you just had a brain fart, I don't know. However, a word of advice: depending on which discipline it is, we usually just say (pi/4)D^2 because working with diameters is often more convenient.

Too bad engineers don't save lives on split second decisions

Engineers built the Tacoma narrows bridge. Just think what might have happened had a doctor or an ambulance been on that bridge when it collapsed. Engineers may not save lives in split second decisions, but they do save or endanger lives based on how well they do their work.
