![]() ![]() When she wakes up again, in Kansas, it goes back to black and white. ![]() The first part was shot in black and white, to portray the bleakness of Kansas, but when she opened the door after the house landed, audiences let out an audible gasp, because it was the first time most of them had ever seen a movie in color. It had the best special FX to date, color, and was (I may be wrong) only the second mainstream movie to ever be shot in color. Shirley Temple was the casting director's first choice to play the part of Dorothy, but her mom was asking for too much money, so Temple went on to make some over produced piece of crap that nobody even remembers, and her career plummeted, while Garland's career skyrocketed. There was a "Jitter Bug" musical number that never saw the light of day, because they felt the jitter bug, was just a trend, and would make the movie dated, and they also didn't want the movie to be considered as a musical. They came very close to cutting "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" out, because they felt it slowed the movie down to much. They had to strap Judy Garland's boobs down, because they made her look too old for the part, and stuck stuff up her nose to make it point up a little bit. There were even a couple of movies made addressing it, one being "Under The Rainbow"(1981) with Chevy Chase. They end up in a brawl where they knock out the guards and take the guard’s uniforms.According to several cast interviews, the Munchkins were mostly all drunk the entire time, and knowing that, only makes their scenes better for me. However, they must quickly adapt their initial plan when they are discovered by three of the Witch’s guards. Upon reaching the castle, it is the Scarecrow who hatches a plan for how to enter the castle with the plan for the Lion leading the way. How does the Scarecrow get into the castle? There is a scene in the forest where Dorothy and the Scarecrow stop to pick some apples but the apple tree does not want to hand over the fruit so easily and puts up a fight. Where do Dorothy and the Scarecrow pick apples? ![]() What did Scarecrow say in the Pythagorean theorem?Īrmed with his new honorary degree, the Scarecrow, suddenly flush with intellect, stands erect and begins to robotically recite the Pythagorean Theorem, proclaiming, “The sum of the square root of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the third side.” As I kid, I remember thinking, “Wow, he’s not dumb at all!” In ‘The Wizard of Oz’, “the Scarecrow thinks he has no brain, but in fact he is a highly reflective thinker and given a little time to think he produces amazing solutions to problems. What was the Scarecrow’s brain in The Wizard of Oz? It is more precisely called the principal square root of 3, to distinguish it from the negative number with the same property. The square root of 3 is the positive real number that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number 3. When the side lengths of a triangle are in the ratio 3: 4: 5, then it is a right triangle. They are equal, and thus, the triangle is a right triangle. The Pythagorean Theorem is a statement relating the lengths of the sides of any right triangle.Ģ Answers. We are going to label the other two sides a and b. The word “hypotenuse” comes from two Greek words meaning “to stretch”, since this is the longest side. It is the longest side of the three sides of the right triangle. What triangle does Pythagorean theorem relate to? Later in the film, we learn the Great and Powerful Oz is actually from Kansas, so the weapon could have been his.Īfter Dorothy and her friends have completed their mission to kill the Wicked Witch of the West, the Wizard gives the Scarecrow brains (made out of bran, pins and needles – in reality a placebo, as he has been the most intelligent of the group all along). So where did the revolver come from? The Scarecrow doesn’t have it when the flying monkeys pull his stuffing out earlier in the film, so it doesn’t seem to have always been in his possession. Therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Universitartus Committiartum E Pluribus Unum, I hereby confer upon you the honorary degree of ThD – Doctor of Thinkology.” Scarecrow got his degree from a diploma mill, although not the one based in Spokane.ĭid the Scarecrow have a gun in the Wizard of Oz? “They have one thing you haven’t got: a diploma. To solve for c, take the square root of both sides to get c = √(b²+a²). In a right triangle with cathetus a and b and with hypotenuse c, Pythagoras’ theorem states that: a² + b² = c². The hypotenuse is opposite the right angle and can be solved by using the Pythagorean theorem. To be correct, he should have stood erect* and stated, “The sum of the squares of the two legs of a right triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.” The Pythagorean Theorem applies to right triangles, not isosceles triangles (duh). ![]()
