If you sin 90 times, you'll only get caught 50% of times,
Because sin 90 = cot 45.
Because sin 90 = cot 45.
"Sin" does double duty as both the moral transgression and the trigonometric function sine — sin(90°) = 1 and cot(45°) = 1, so the identity sin 90 = cot 45 is a genuine trig fact. The joke smuggles a valid trigonometric identity inside what sounds like questionable life advice.
Say the setup like it's actual advice, then drop the punchline like a math identity that settles the matter completely.
Perfect for:
Math jokes rely on the same logical structure as mathematical proofs — setup (hypothesis), expectation (theorem), punchline (QED of comedy).
