Here is question on an math assignment I was given, I have no clue what it is even asking.
It's a Challenge Yourself question, I've typed it exactly how it is on my paper:
A student is having difficult figuring out what is wrong with his proof:
Let C=D
C^2=CD
C^2 - D^2 = CD - D^2
(C - D)(C + D) = D(C - D)
C + D = D
However C=D
D + D = D
2D = D
2 = 1 ???
