Below are some mathematical Tom Swifties sent in by Dave Smith:
- "Really good proofs are hard to find," Tom said rigorously.
- "Numbers change back and forth from positive to negative when multiplied repeatedly by -1", Tom said resignedly.
- "(x2 + y2 - 2ax)2 = 4a2(x2 + y2), where y > 0", Tom said half-heartedly.

- "1.111111...," said Tom repeatedly.
- "Minus one," Tom said negatively.
- "What's the square root of minus one?" Tom imagined.
- "Dodecahedron, cube and tetrahedron," said Tom, regularly and solidly.
- "Thirty degrees," Tom remarked acutely.
- "One hundred degrees," Tom said obtusely.
- "Ninety degrees," Tom said rightly.
- "Eighty degrees and ten degrees," Tom said complimentarily.
- "Everyone stand in line by age!" Tom ordered.
- "Rate times time," said Tom as he distanced himself.
- "It has to be the set of all points the same distance from a point, just because it is," Tom argued circularly.
- "When I have insomnia, I just start counting, 1,2,3,..." said Tom, sheepishly.
- "I've just traced the perimeter," said Tom, somewhat circuitously.
- "N-factorial," Tom answered emphatically.
- "y=mx+b," said Tom obliquely.
- "1/x," Tom reciprocated.
- "If n > 1, then there is always at least one prime p such that n < p <2n," Tom postulated.
- "2.718281828459045," Tom said, naturally.
- "That's not a parabola, it's a catenary," said Tom, unfocused.
- "-log[H+] > 7" Tom said bitterly.
- "This has no height and no width," Tom said, pointedly.
- "There is only one of these," Tom said, uniquely.
- "There are properties of all numbers," Tom said, theoretically.
- "If you take smaller and smaller steps and look at the result, you reach a limit," Tom calculated.
- "1,1,2,3,5,8,..." said Tom, seriously.
- "Who's David Pleacher?" puzzled Tom.

- "x times x = x squared," Tom said exponentially.
- "x = x," Tom said reflexively.
