    This question is flawed. "2 outta 3 is a forced answer. I have to push the ol'  "Price is Right' failure buzzer button.  As Paul Harvey used to say on his radio program ------- "Good Day!"

    Don't insult Paul Harvey---at the end of his program, at least we listeners had learned something.

    Rosie posted a proposed "given," and asked a question based on that "given."

    That is quite common in a geometry problem---didn't you just post that you weren't very good at math under the "nerd and geek" question?

    But Rosie's "givens" are usually so only in her mind. Mathematical givens tend to be based in reality.

    And you turn right around and post a "given" in your own mind: But Rosie's "givens" are usually so only in her mind

    Now that is an excellent example of the pot calling the kettle black.

    You have a respectable amount of knowledge in a number of areas, but I don't think but acting stupid and/or sarcastic is one of your long suits.

    And you turn right around and accuse me of stating a truth that exists only in my mind. But it's not just in my mind - quite a few folks agree with me. They just don't bother engaging in pointless arguments with someone who doesn't wish to consider other points of view and thus doesn't listen.

    Hello there Stu Bee
    I agree. This is a question that for many cannot be answered. In geometry the area of a given space is not that of opinion, it is or it isnt. In this question the measure of "irritant" is strictly a matter of opinion, as well as is "ignorance". If someone finds him neither irritating or ignorant then they cannot choose 2 of the 3.
    That aside, how can one be a "quotient", would they not instead be a measure of said quotient?..

     If you say so bh. Thank you for pointing out the reason you did not answer the question I asked and Happy Sunday anyway.
