Oh ya, one thing I learnt over the weekend from my Mum-in-law. Chinese prefer having ROUND cakes instead of square ones. Apparently, roundness signifies completeness, no "corners" (or bumps as I interpret it) in life.
And all this while I have been making square cakes for their birthdays.
Now, I have to use my mathematical knowledge to find out what diameter tin I need to get to fit a cake that used to take up a 9" x 9" tin. Unfortunately, I have never thought the formulas I learnt in maths would be applicable one day. So is it pi x j squared or 2 x pi x j?
Answer is pi x j ( kuasa dua )
ReplyDeleteOic...round signifies completeness is it?...
I just know about this. Thanks for sharing.
