Two students were staring away at the flag pole in front of the college building. The professor of English walking by asked, "What seems to be the problem?"
One of the students said, "We need to know how to measure the height of this flag pole for our math class."
The professor of English quickly unscrewed the pole from its moorings, laid it on the ground, whipped out a measuring tape, measured it, and said, "It is exactly 20 feet long."
Looking at the English professor as he walked away, the other student said, "Smart alec. We wanted to know the height, and he tells us the length!"
