Set Squares and Trousers - a Quick Thought to Ponder Today

I am a person who likes to ponder. I admit that at times I over-think about most things and indeed it is totally unnecessary in the grand scheme of things but, again, I quite like it. It’s fun (I know it’s a fragment and no I won’t revise).

So here are two thoughts for you to join me in pondering:
· Why is a set square a triangle?
· Why if you ask for a pair of shirts and a pair of trousers do you get two shirts and one “pair” of trousers?
