In theory yes, but in practice those 4 people would be standing on a plane (i.e. Ground).

Pythagoras wasn't the first to describe the relationship and he didn't prove it mathematically, but he still got his name attached to it for centuries.
That's life goal stuff right there.

I love science memes, but this is just silly. It's so obviously "at least" 1.5 meters. If you're in this exact formation, you are 1.5m from 2 people... and about 2.12m from the other one.
5 0 ReplyThen why not write >= 1.5m? Check mate atheist
4 0 ReplyBecause it's implied...? The graphic is based on health experts' advice that people stay at least 1.5 meters apart, not that they stay exactly 1.5 meters apart with weird synchronized movements.
Sorry, I'm doubling-down on my argument! But the real reason is probably because not everyone knows what > and < mean...
