A team of engineers were
required to measure the height of a flag pole.
They only had a measuring tape, and were
getting quite frustrated trying to keep the tape along the pole.
It kept falling down, etc.
A mathematician comes along, finds out
their problem, and proceeds to remove the pole from the ground,
lays it down and then measures it easily.
As he leaves, one engineer says to the
other, "Just like a mathematician! We need to know the height,
and he gives us the length!"
