Plimpton 322 has become of the world’s most studied ancient artifacts. Is it proof that the Babylonians used advanced math to solve real problems 1000 years before the Greeks?

As is often the case, inspired by a Pat Bellew post.
I hear that it was originally in french just a great dozen (dozen dozen), but of course English has a homynym, so...

Background is a woman walking through a verdant area with trees and bushes. Text reads, “Worth learning are alone those things that lead us to divine likeness; that make us ‘take counsel before the deed, so that no foolishness may arise’; that do not allow us to be led astray by anyone, either ‘by word’ or ‘by deed’; that render us capable of distinguishing the difference of the ‘words that come to men’s ears’; that persuade us to ‘bear heaven-sent fortunes lightly’ and to ‘cure’ them; that teach us fearlessness of death and poverty, the practice of justice, and control over the belly and everything pertaining to the belly; that introduce us to the laws of friendship and the honour of our parents; that indicate to us the respect we owe the superior classes of beings.” Hierocles, Commentary on the golden verses of Pythagoras, trans.

Distance Calculator: How to use the Distance Calculator to calculate Distance through Map
The Distance Calculator determines the exact miles, time and Distance between the two places or cities.
Input the city name you are starting or calculate the Distance from
the destination or desired location in the Calculator through the map.
Then tap on Calculate. It will calculate the Distance between two cities or any two places. The Distance Calculator determines Distance in miles as well as kilometres.
Ways the Calculator helps are:
It helps in determining how many miles away the desired location is.
The Distance between nearby cities is calculated in kilometres and miles.
It also calculates the air distance. It is the flying Distance between two locations.
Can Distance be a vector?
The Distance can not be vector. The Distance between two points is scalar. Hence you can use our Distance Calculator to measure the Distance between two points or locations. Displacement is a vector. It is with value and direction. Hence the Distance from A-B is the same as from B-A.
Displacement differs depending on the order given.
Which are the Distance Formula and its SI unit?
AllCalculator.net Distance Calculator uses the formula √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]. To calculate the Distance in seconds.
The formula works and fits well for 2D Coordinate Space. The coordinates are x₁ and y₁. It is quite easy. It is about the Pythagorean Theorem. The Distance represents the hypotenuse. The lengths are x and y or the catheti.
The SI unit of Distance is meter or m. A meter is approximately 3.28 feet. The International System of SI units also suggests cm and km be a unit of Distance.
How to determine the Dimension of a Distance?
AllCalculator.net Distance Calculator can calculate the Distance between different dimensions by altering the formula.
Distance is a one-dimensional space. The Distance between two spaces is the shortest. It is a short length in 1D space. If the Distance is divided, you can determine the speed and the dimensions of space.
Conclusion
AllCalculator.net Distance Calculator is used to calculate the Distance between two places simply. It could be for any logistics, travel, or to study and calculate the Distance to understand the desired location's fuel needs.

Forget a burn, that’s an incineration right there.
For real though, the op unironically tweeted that, with that haircut? Bro has the fuckin a^2+b^2=c^2 haircut 💀 My dude’s about to go teach SohCahToa

me fighting the urge to tell every alt person wearing a pentagram that it originated from an Ancient Greek math cult led by the guy who’s credited with “discovering” a^2 + b^2 = c^2, and proceed to give a short lecture on the golden ratio and the Fibonacci sequence
