Who says you’ll never use math in the real world? 📐 On Wednesday, students took their geometry skills to the parking lot to solve a common construction challenge: squaring up a concrete pad.

Armed with only a string, chalk, and a 12 ft tape measure, they applied the Pythagorean Theorem to ensure every corner was a perfect 90 degrees. Precision is everything in trades, and these students nailed it! 🏗️
