I said that the surface is
$z\le3-x-y\left{0\le y\le3-x\right}\left{0\le x\le3\right}\left{z\ge0\right}$
smeagol
oh I think I forgot to curl F
brb
$F\left(x,y,z\right)=(x+y^{2})i+(y+z^{2})j+(z+x^{2})k$
smeagol
smeagol
,w curl((x+y^2),(y+z^2),(z+x^2))
got it now yay
I had messed up and forgot that I needed the curl

Can someone explain why is the inductive step like that
especially when the problem turns into (x^7 + 1)/(x + 1)
find the relation between $7^{7^n}$ and $7^{7^{n+1}}$ first i think
looklikesomethingulike
$7^{7^{n+1}} = \left(7^{7^{n}}\right)^{7}$
wait
$7^{7^{n+1}} + 1 = \left(7^{7^{n}} + 1\right)^{7} + 1$
the main idea is just factorizing the remaining components so that it will have at least two new prime divisors, am i saying wrong? (nice factorization btw)
the only thing i was wondering about the solution is if these two components are just a power of the same prime number
(so there will be only one new prime divisor)

,how would I go about solving this true or false? Sorry if it’s a stupid question, it’s grade 11 level work where I live
do you know what the distance formula is?
Yes
cool, so what would be the distance between (2, 4) and (-3, 2), using the formula?
I'll put it up here to help you
Okay wait I see now lol, I read the question kinda wrong
ahhh was it a reading issue? I see
Yes, thank you
yeah okay, so basically the problem-solving approach is:
- find the 3 distances using the distance formula
- check if their sum is sqrt(33)
Alrighty thank you!!!
cool if you're done type .close

how to solve this using cosine rule?
have you made a sketch of the rhombus
no not yet im a bit confused on visuallising and sketching it
try start with drawing a rhombus
not ideal but its enough to do the problem
yes sorry im drawing this using a mouse
draw in that diagonal (that doesn't cut those 128° angles) to get triangles
like the two formulas?
oh wait i think i get it maybe
like is it 8^2 + 8^2 - 2* 8 * 8 * cos(128)
like to find the diagonal
looks good
now apply properties of a rhombus to get the other angles
and then same idea for the other diagonal
not quite
wait how since the sides are the same?
i mean yes, but not really what you want
oh ok
you want the other angles of the rhombus
do i need another diagonal cutting the 128 degree triangle
yes, they want the length of both diagonals
will it look like this
so the formula to find the other diagnal is 8^2+8^2 - 2* 8* 8* cos(52)=c^2
c=7.01
yeh. that works
no
there's
Area = ab * sin(C)
for a parallelogram (which is applicable here)
so 14.38*7.01 is ab right?
no
wait what so 8*8?
Result:
50.4019
,w 88sin(128 deg)
rounding issues
multiple methods can be used
since they ask for the diagonals first, they probs intended for you to use that formula
they probably wanted us to use the generic rhombus area formula
but use the unrounded values from your calc if possible
because it was only covering cosine law
yes
thank you for your help

k
@tribal quiver
hi
wait why did u add p0
it is from the theorem
huh
From FTC2,
[ F(b) - F(a) = \int_a^b f(x) \dd x ]
Since, ${\dv{t} P(t) = P'(t)}$, we can sub them as the ${F}$ and ${f}$ pair. Also, let ${b = t}$ and ${a = 0}$.
[ P(t) - P(0) = \int_0^t P'(x) \dd x]
k
huhh
y ur adding p0
from this
y r ur letting b = t and a=0
yes
so that we can substitute t
to get P(t) at any time
for example t = 4 here
mmm
so we will sub 4 in
ok then
[ P(4) = P(0) + \int_0^4 P'(x) \dd x]
k
i thought p4 is just equal to the integral part
trapezoid rule is just one part
they want u to use this entire thing
ok i think i got it ty
also i have another question
for this one
i get up to theta is = 32
like up to this basically
(i used degrees not radians formula tho)
and how do u find the value of k from that
r u sure
there we go
k
all g lol
yeah so new is 25
so ${r' = (1.25r)}$ and ${\theta' = (1-k)\theta}$
k
plugging it in
[ \frac{\pi(\theta)}{360} \cdot r^2= \frac{\pi}{360}(1-k)\theta(1.25r)^2]
some canceling
k
[ 1 = (1-k)(1.25)^2]
k
,w 1 = (1-k)(1.25)^2
oop back
?
can u explain it this way
k

hi im back with more horrible fes
Find all functions $f : \mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{N}$ satisfying $\ f^{abc-a}(abc) + f^{abc-b}(abc) + f^{abc-c}(abc) = a + b + c \ \forall a,b,c \geq 2$
Copter
also i dunno if f(1),f(2) are findable are not
i will crash out if my sol is completely wrong 🙏
can someone check if this is correct? ty in advance
bro what is this question
i have no idea man💔
locked out for like 2 hours
<@&286206848099549185>
It is correct
f(1),f(2),f(3) are never used, so they can be anything in N.

Give me a method without using (dy/dt)/(dx/dt)
I can't do that long
Is there any short way ?
This is a parametric form of something?
solve one variable for sqrt(cos(2t))?
Derivative
probably lookingfor dy/dx
Find the derivative find dy)dx
Uhhh
just write y=cot^3 t * x and do it
Ahh I think it will make it more uglier , because it's already very ugly
How did you reach that conclusion?
eliminate sqrt cos2t
are you evaluating at a point or you need a general answer
Is this like a jee question?
Oh yes I can do that , but I have to eliminate t 🥲
i gave that suggestion , student didn't like it i think
sadge
what, why
I already did it but I can't eliminate dt easily
U should be afraid of everything
It’s math

lol
Yeah
Like u should either practice more
u can
The question asks you to eliminate t
were you planning on telling us the rest of the question or is it a secret
so why differentiate at all?
bruh
Yeah 🥲
it says without eliminating the parameter
WITHOUT
why did u not say that
LMAO

[ \frac{\dd y}{\dd x} = \frac{\frac{\dd y}{\dd t}}{\frac{\dd x}{\dd t}}]
k
u cant eliminate the parameter and u want a shorter method 
😱😱😱
you have 3 ways
the original problem
eliminate sqrt cos 2t
and log differentiate
choose
Actually these all are the parametric form of something like the first question is the parametric form of parabola so I thought this is a parametric form of something that I don't know
I think he wants a way so u can directly imagine the derivative 
Yeah okay
not all parameteric systems can be written without the parameter
I always look for approaches , I can easily do it by that long method but I thought that this could be a parametric form of something which will make it shorter
but the instructions said not to do so 😭
It’s just a normal exercise
Doesn’t matter how u do it
Yeah 🥲
it’s the basics book 
I was doing cengage then my teacher told me to think about this question now I'm overthinking it 😂
Think abt it
well
lemme see
Yes I've log and cot^3x I've already tried it , and to eliminate dt I have to go through that hard labour
And I think that is the shortest way to do it because there aren't many ways to do it
Ur preparing for jee
Yep
U should be
Enjoying the labour

Not run away
Not all questions have a short way
🥲 I don't enjoy labour I enjoy smart work but I already did the labour , now I'm finding different approaches
Yes
I think this question doesn't have any short way
But thanks for the approaches

$A$ and $B$ play the following game with a polynomial of degree atleast 4:$$\ x^{2n} + a_{2n-1}x^{2n-1} + ... + a_1x + 1 = 0 \$$ $A$ and $B$ take turns choosing a real number for one of $a_i$ until all are chosen. If the resulting polynomial has no real roots, then $A$ wins. Otherwise $B$ wins. If $A$ begins first, who has the winning strategy?

A sequnce is called zero-havy if there exists $M \in |N$ such that for all $N \in \N$, there exists $n$ satisfying $N≤n≤N+M$ satisfying $x_n=0$
\
is $(0,1,0,1,\dots)$ zero -heavy
wai
so a couple of questions
one if I understand it right, M is fixed, right
- so for every natural number there exists a fixed neigbourhood consisting of atleast one zero term
yea M is fixed
basically if you take any segment of length M+1, there's a zero in that segment
hmm, yea
This feels like denseness of some kind
like essentially a zero-heavy can only converge if it's ultimately zero
no i don't see why that's true
for example: 1, 0, 1/2, 0, 1/3, 0, 1/4, 0, ... is zero-heavy (with M=1 like your sequence) and converges to 0
oops, I should have said if the non-zero terms converge to 0
that's what I meant my abd
&bad
*bad
ugh typos
ah yea that should be correct
Lemme try proving that now
@twilit field Has your question been resolved?
Theorem : If a sequence is zero -heavy, then it converges to 0.
\
We prove that if a sequence doesn't converge to $0$, then it's not zero -heavy
\
Let the sequence be $(a_n)$, let its limit be $a$.
\
We then have $\forall \varepsilon>0 \exists N >0 : n≥N \implies \abs{a_n-a}<\varepsilon$
\
However, as $(a_n)$ is zero-heavy $\exists M \in \N \forall N \in \N$ , there is a $n$ in $N≤n≤N+M$
\
Let the sequence be zero-heavy
\
we let $\varepsilon = \abs{a}{2}$
we then have that for all $n$ greater than some $N$ , $\abs{a_n-a}<\frac{\abs{a}}{2}$. But as it's zero heavy, there is some $N'≥N$ such that $a_n=0$
\
We thus have $\abs{a}<\abs{a}{2}$, a contradiction.
\
Thus if a sequence doesn't converge to zero it's not heavy and equivalently if a sequence is zero-heavy it converges to $0$
wai
do you mean if a convergent sequence is zero heavy then it converges to zero?
yes
my bad
there are a few typos in here btw
Doesn't the example (1,0,1,0,...) contradict your theorem
yea it needs to be a convergent sequence
Oh I missed convergent sequence
yea, so convergent, my bad
like you said "let the sequence be zero heavy" after saying it’s zero heavy
and it should be a_{N’} on the fourth line from the bottom
and \varepsilon = \frac{|a|}{2}
also you said you’re proving by contrapositive but then assumed it’s zero heavy as if you were doing a direct proof
note that if you do it directly you can’t take epsilon = |a|/2 since this may be zero and we need epsilon > 0
I suppose making the contrapositive a proof by contradiction can save it
just do contradiction. assume the sequence is convergent and zero heavy but it doesn’t converge to zero that’s all you need
then you have |a|/2 > 0 so you’re fine and can do what you did
why not what I did
because it just makes it confusing and is inconsistent
@twilit field do you know the theorem that if a sequence converges to some limit L, then every subsequence must also converge to L?
Iyea
*yea
if so, then your desired result is almost immediate from that
true

just got a q that asked me to complete the left side of the graph, knowing it’s an odd function
it’s contradictory isn’t it
intercepts
k
use this
yeah but u cant just apply that
why not
because then you’d get
(0,2) and (0,-2)
and see how that makes it not a function
it becomes a relation
u get what i mean, right?
yep
odd functions need to go through the origin f(0) =-f(0) implies f(0) =0
or
arent defined at x=0
sure
alr
cuz it was an entry test and i js wrote that the sol can’t be found

Is this the correct graph?? I don’t see how I’d graph this, how do I appplt the H and K values?
they didn’t do it in the photo did they?
they just applied the stretch of 2?
black is parent graph I believe
yes
that's what the table on the right suggests
yea that’s what I thought
so then after I find the stretch I can just do the vertical and horizontal translations?
the stretching is somehow exaggerated tho
ye
okay that’s what I thought but I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing anything

can someone help me on how i would wtite this
tldr, if AB=1 then the equation holds, we can scale the diagram as we wish so we can scale it to where AB=1, since the equatiom is homeogenous then AB/BP must be constant
also in retrospect i shouldve said something with the fact that the min and max is just a reflection on the perp bisector of AB
cause AB=-golden ratio doesent make sense
@viral dagger Has your question been resolved?
@viral daggerproduct of the length of segments?
yea
nice question
Yu
WLOG, we can assume AB = 1 as we only care about the ratio, which is preserved under scaling
and the ratio of AP×BP=AB^2 wont change after scaling?
this method of assuming something is 1 can actually work right
yes
do you eben need to actually
well it makes the problem easier

Z91 is isomorpic to?? In modulo multiplication operation
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
Is it not isomorpic to z6×z12?
Yes. I know you told me early this morning. Actually I was explaining the question to someone else and he is not agree with line of isomorphic
Z_91 and Z_7×Z_13 are isomorphic as rings and therefore their unit groups are isomorphic also.
He suggested
and with the question of if $\bZ_{91}^\times$ and $\bZ_6^\times \times \bZ_{12}^\times$ are isomorphic, it's not immediately obvious to me.
Ann
can i see your convo with your friend
He only suggested about it
I told him in spoken
ok so no record of it
And he suggested this thing to me
Z_6^* = {1, 5}, it only has two elements
but Z_91^* has no element of order 2
so idk what your friend was cooking
If they are isomorpic then why it doesn't work for us
He is pointing out to me that operation is modulo multiplication
Let's see what he says. I have pointed out your point to him
Z6-->{1,5}
i don't want us 3 to play broken telephone
Yoo he is confused now. And he will call me this evening

Given any set $S$ of positive integers, show that at least one of the following two assertations holds: $\$ 1) There exists distinct finite subsets of $F$ and $G$ such that $$\ \sum_{x \in F}\frac{1}{x} = \sum_{x\in G}\frac{1}{x} \$$ 2) There exists a positive rational number $r <1$ such that $$\ \sum_{x\in F}\frac{1}{x} \neq r \$$ For all finite subsets $F$ of $S$
Copter
no idea where to start ;-;
the second assertion is weird
isn't that always true
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
yep
well if S = Z, then every number can be written as a sum like that
one sec ill go through my thingies
and presumably thats also true for other sets S
Hi, sorry for this simple problem but I really am confused if the domain of this rational function (2x+1)/(x²+1) is (+-1) or all real numbers
oh sorry
yep this is worded correctly
OH
well like
if S is finite then 2) holds
yeah it's that
this is the original
else then S is infinite
woah its from imosl??
yeah 2018 ISL
haven't done the problem, i can have a look later today when i'm done with work
sadly no💔
i see it now woops
well like whats the idea behind this
ummm as to where to start, maybe try creating a subset S such that (1) is not true
and then see why that forces (2) to be true
(you've already basically done the other way around)
aaaa
sps 1), 2) false, then let there be 2 numbers b < a and there exists a finite subset F of S such that sum(x in F) 1/x = 1/b - 1/a
If 1/b - 1/a < 1/a, it implies a is not in F so we can pick another distinct subset FU{a} and both sums are equal
if we want 1) to be false too then 1/b - 1/a >= 1/a => a >=2b
blehh
what do i do with this ;-;
oh well then
it follows that S = {a_1,a_2,...}where a_(i+1) >= 2a_i
crashes out
what if equality
yawn
assume FTSOC that a(i+1) > 2ai for every i, then there exists some rational number r in the interval (2/a(i+1), 1/ai) such that it satisfies 2).
also a(i+k) > 2^k ai
since r < 1/ai, we have that r< 1/ai + 1/a(i+1) + ...
r < 1/ai (1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + ...)
r < 2/ai contradiction since we chose r in the open interval
then a(i+1) = 2ai for all i
i MIGHT be on something here
THEN S = {k,2k,4k,8k,...}for any integer k
no
which implies
any sum of x in F is of the form (p/2^q)(1/k) for some integer q,p
F is finite, so we pick r = 1/3k not in S, contradicting the fact that we chose 1,2) as false

not sure how to approach these problems, ive tried using law of cosines to get angle E but still dont know where to go from there
@dawn pine Has your question been resolved?
you just find the ratio since they similar
then use law of cosines
this should help
now use law of cosines to find <D and <F
then u can find the length EG
by using sin
sinF = x/26
or sinD = x/24
i got an ss of what i got when you need to verify (i think it’s right, i hope so)
i mean it is an answer choice
@dawn pine Has your question been resolved?
ok lemme try
wait we dont know if its a right triangle so i dont think we can use trig
oh nvm i got it by just using law of cosines a bunch

this also works
what did u get btw
i js realized i made a huge assumption 😭
20.73
rounded to 20.7
i basically used law of cosines to find angle E and F
G is midpoint of DF so FG is 14
EF is 26
then just used law of cos again to find EG

Can someone help me
You know that the answer will be of the form $y=ab^x$ for some constants $a$ and $b$ which you need to find. You have two pairs of points that you can substitute in to get $12=ab^2$ and $6=ab^3$. You can now solve this system of questions to find $a$ and $b$.
@marble epoch
Hint: ||make a the subject of each equation and then equate them||
Could you just tell me the answer please
But then you don't learn anything
Also, I just worked through it and got the same answer as you

Sorry
Yeah, I don’t know why it keeps saying it’s Wrong
Maybe there's a mistake in the question
The second point looks a bit too low on the graph
Ok thank you for trying
yeah thats my thought lol
that point is at (3,4) not (3,6)
Or maybe the table displayed is for their function and not the actual point
It does say "for your use"
So
You know that the answer will be of the form $y=ab^x$ for some constants $a$ and $b$ which you need to find. You have two pairs of points that you can substitute in to get $12=ab^2$ and $4=ab^3$. You can now solve this system of questions to find $a$ and $b$.

how would I get a hole here?
I tried to factor it again and got it to this point
still don’t get a hole from here though 
Here’s all the work if that helps
x/x would still have a hole at x=0
Does that come from dividing the factored out x’s?
so that would mean this is wrong?
@quaint shoal Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
What
Yeah this looks wrong
the hole comes from these 2 x’s?
yes - because the denominator becomes 0 at x=0, but you can "remove" it by cancelling, then it is a hole
if the denominator is 0 at, say, x=c, and you cannot remove it by cancelling, then it is a VA
so x = -4 is still a VA
@quaint shoal Has your question been resolved?
ohh I see
I think I’ll be good with these for now
I forgot how to do all these stuff from 2-3 weeks ago already🥀🥀🥀

Guys is there an easier way to do this 😭
9^16 can’t be right lol
\begin{enumerate}
\item would be best to write $\log_9\big((3p+9)^4\big)$ to avoid confusing it with $[\log_9(3q+9)]^4$
\item you can do something else with the 4 instead of bringing it into the exponent
\end{enumerate}
haseeb
ohh I can just divide it?
that’s A LOT easier 
alternately, when you get to $(3p+9)^4 = 9^{16}$, you can try to "get rid of" the exponent instead of expanding it out
haseeb
i.e. raise each side to the power of $\frac{1}{4},$ or $\sqrt[4],$ and get $3p+9 = 9^4$. but here, you need to show that $3p+9 \geq 0,$ because it's an even root
haseeb
but the first way is easier ;)
thats what I kinda wanted to do but got stuck mid way 😅
yeah I’ll stick to that
yeah, if you find yourself expanding $(a+b)^4$ for a 5 point question, stop and recognize your teacher is not sadistic
haseeb
sounds good, lmk if it works out
🤣
got it
=2184. easy with diving it out thankss for the help haseeb!!

Let $n$ be a positive integer, and consider a sequence $a_1,a_2,...,a_n$ of positive integers. Extend it periodically to an infinite sequence $a_1,a_2,...$ by defining $a_{n+i} = a_i$ for all $i\geq1$. If $$\ a_1 \leq a_2 \leq ... \leq a_n \leq a_1 + n\$$ And $$\a_{a_i}\leq n+i-1 \$$ for $i = 1,2,...,n$ Prove that$$\ a_1 + ... + a_n \leq n^2$$
Copter
no idea where to start
and also the a_{ai} is kinda trippy for me
<@&286206848099549185>
well the bottom proof is equal to proving $a_j \leq n + j -1$ for all $i \leq n$
Copter
and its equivalent to proving that each of a_i is a permutation of {1,2,..n}? or something
Maybe try small n and see what sequences you can find
🤔
wait is it possible to contradiction this
Maybe starting to define for each integer ( j \in {1, 2, \dots, n} ), define:
[
c_j := # \left{ i \in {1, \dots, n} \mid a_i = j \right}
]
In other words, ( c_j ) is the number of times the value ( j ) appears in the sequence ( (a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n) ).
Clint
proof by contradiction
how would this help?
Then
$\sum_{i=1}^n a_{a_i} = \sum_{j=1}^n c_j \cdot a_j$
Clint
By summing the inequality ( a_{a_i} \leq n + i - 1 ) over all ( i = 1, 2, \dots, n ), we get:
[
\sum_{i=1}^n a_{a_i} \leq \sum_{i=1}^n (n + i - 1)
]
Clint
next time you can try the forum if you need it to stay between sessions
I have something but it's not a complete solution and might be a red herring. Firstly, observe by the division algorithm that for each $a_i \in {a_1, \dots, a_n}$, $a_i \equiv r_i (mod n)$ for some unique $0 \leq r_i < n$ and by the condition that $a_{n+i} = a_i$ for all $i \geq 1$, $a_{a_i} = a_{r_i}$ for each $i=1,2,\dots,n$. Hence, as $a_{a_i} \leq n + i - 1$ for each $a_i$, we have $a_{r_i} \leq n + i - 1$ for each $r_i$ (this one could be useful). Moreover, by the inequality, $a_1 \leq a_2 \leq \cdots \leq a_n \leq a_1 + n$, each $a_j \in {a_1, a_2, \dots, a_n}$ satisfies $a_j \leq a_1 + j$ (this one might also be workable).

What is proper fraction less than 100?
I didn't get it properly
Are they asking me to sum
1/100+1/99+1/98+....1
a proper fraction is a fraction that is less than 1
1/100, 2/100, 3/100, 4/100, 5/100..........99/100, 1/99, 2/99............1/2
So they are asking such sum?
1/100+2/100+3/100+....99/100+
1/99+2/99+.....98/99
1/98+2/98+......97/98
99/2+98/2+97/2+..
Ohh that's easy one
including duplicates like 4/100 vs. 2/50 vs. 1/25?
I think those count
like does this question mean $\sum_{j=1}^{100} \sum_{i=1}^{j-1} \frac{i}{j}$ or what
Ann
it is impossible to tell if this was meant or not
ok I searched up, the definition of a proper fraction is ANY fraction where the numerator is less than the denominator (both positive)

Hey can anyone help me with physics i have some doubts regarding friction
If the fbd's look like this then why doesn't the A block start moving first
And then B block and then C block
This is the next page of the illustration in case you need it
well in reality they'll all move at once
but yes you're pulling on C, which is pulling on B, which is pulling on A
So why wont A move first then ?
because friction can't act on something that's stationary
friction can't oppose motion where there's no motion to oppose
Static friction ?
static friction is the force you need to overcome to get something to start moving in the first place
static friction does not cause an object to move
otherwise, everything will remain in motion
So till C moves no friction will begin acting on it from B then ?
yes, because the primary force acts on C
once C starts moving all of them will begin to move
So order would be first C begins to move then B begins to apply friction to C then that causes B to move then A applies friction on B which then causes A to move right ?
C moving means ALL three will start to move at once
but in what order they will start slipping is a different story
Please elaborate 🙏
if there is an infinite amount of static friction, none of them would slip, agreed?
Yes
but for a limited amount of static friction, whichever block experiences a force that can overcome its static friction first will start slipping first
for example, if B is super dense and heavy compared to A, A will slip first even if B is touching C
also i need to correct a few statements that i made earlier, apologies
static friction does oppose impending motion, but static friction itself cannot cause an object to move
so this is also invalid
But then how is B moving doesn't static friction from C to B gets B moving ?
Ohh nvm thats kinetic friction
ok maybe i should add frames of reference
static friction cannot cause an object to move from the frame of reference of the object it is resting on
but yes, you are right that from an inertial frame of reference, static friction between C and B causes B to get pulled along with C
Okk I think I got it
Thank you very much for your help
Please do so 😅
ok
if you were standing by the side, watching C get pulled
to you, C and B moved together, and B's motion is very accurately justified by static friction
but let's say I am sitting on C
to me, B doesn't move
at least, not until F gets large enough
so static friction prevents B from moving against C until opposed
but you saw it moving
this is the difference the frame of reference makes
my frame of reference is non-inertial (another way to say that i'm moving)
So until the acceleration of both the blocks are same till then from C frame im not moving but when F gets sufficiently large enough then due to there being a maximum value of friction for B block B looks like it's deaccelerating from C frame
from C's pov, B will not be moving until F is large enough, then B will start to move backwards
but from an inertial pov, B will always be moving. when it slips, B will start to slow down and slip further back along C
Okk tysm I finally got it

can someone help me with this i dont really know much about vectors
im guessing O would be a good origin? considering P,Q,R,S (the ones we want to do with) have something with O in them
im stuck on finding the position vectors of P and Q
wait is it like somehow getting the midpoint of AD using position vectors, then position of P is 2/3 of the position of midpoint of AD?
call the midpoint E
how are you supposed to get position of E wsp O 😭
Yeah it's a way
vec(OE) = 1/2 (OC+OD)?
oh is e=(a+d)/2
C??
oh E is the midpoint of AD
My bad
but it does mean getting the vectors of OS and OR would be very complex
so there must be a smarter way
is the reasoning cause something something diagonals get bisected in a parallelogram?
ye
p=(a+d)/3
q=(b+c)/3
im guessing the relation between r and a-b is that they are perpendicular?
ok how is PQ perp RS <=> s(a-b)=r(d-c) what the hell
which theorem do i not know
Nahh, I'm watching cartoon man
@viral dagger Has your question been resolved?
coming back to this
is this not just dot product
teach me
hol up i havent read the qn😭
because p-q is basically ((a-b) + (d-c))/3
we need (p-q)(r-s)=0
<=> ((a-b)+(d-c))(r-s) = 0
Expand and you'll get s(a-b) = r(d-c)
you can just manipulate vectors as if it were regular variables??
uhh somewhat
there have been moments I did very weird things with vectors and got wrong results
whats your definition of vector
ok how did they get s(a-b)=ad-bc
sa-sb=...?
arrow
sadge
(s-c)(b-d)=0
sb-sd-bc+bd=0
s(b-d)=bd-bc
(s-d)(a-c)=0
sa-sc-ad+cd=0
s(a-c)=ad-cd
we want sa-sb+bc-ad=0
sa-sc-ad+cd-sb+sd+bc-bd=0
(sa-sb+bc-ad)+(-sc+cd+sd-bd)=0
so cd+sd=bd+sc?
also this
which is mostly the same identities you see with regular variables
fuck cursive man i aint (cant) read that
just ignore the text gng
did you say... fuck cursive????
😡
as if i know what the symbols mean
isnt |p> used for quantum mech?
:P
yeah but just treat them as vectors
Well, I solved this using similar triangle and dot product:) ||s.a=r.d and sb=rc||
@viral dagger Has your question been resolved?
@viral dagger u still need help?
hows u get that?
ROA=SOAD
||So OA.OS=OA.(OH+HS)=OA.OH + OA.HS=OA.OH and the same thing for OR.OD=OD.OK since OHD and OKA are similar triangles we have OA.OH=OD.OK||
Ko a
vcl vector
this is much easier via vectors
how does them being simmilar triangles imply they are the same
uh..I don't know what you want to say when u said "imply they are the same"
im asking why they would be in the first place
does simmilar triangles work with vectors aswell?
OA/OD=OK/OH
OA×OH=OK×OD
does this really work?
only in a few cases
Yeah
in this case cos(AOH) = cos(KOD)
oh if your purely working with lengths its true add the fact that the cos are equal you get the cross product is equal?
yeah
ohh
sa-sb=rd-rc
s(a-b)=r(d-c) which is supposed to equal to ad-bc?
im guessing we want ad=rd somehow? but is that really true
uhh, I don't think so but why we need ad=rd
guessinh
We have S and R is orthocenters but we only make us of OS and OR and any point lie on OS and OR also have the same properties we have to some how make use of CS,SO and BR,AR. that's what I thought of while solving this problem
hm
CS×SO=CS×(SH1+H1O)=CS×SH1
wait BR and AR?
BR×AR=AR×RK
if you do the same as before dont you need OSH1 sim to ORK1
or something like that
I label H,H1,K,K1 so I don't have to work with R and S but still have its properties
igtg sorry
damn alr ty
honestly why does this look so complicated for a single hint
or am i just that terrible (yes) at vectors so this is long and tedious

What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above

9x - 5x = 9
this comes from?
ratio.. (5 from 7:5 and 9 from 7:9)
ok but x represents?
i will be honest i don't see what meaning this x has at all
it's not clear to me and maybe not clear to you
i can share my method of doing it if you want
yes you can..this type of questions are only 2 in the sheet..
I can take this pill
7 and 7 are same in liquid A because liquid A is not changed..but liquid B
ok here is my strategy:
- we take 9 L of mixture from the vessel. the portion we take has the same ratio of A to B as the original mixture, i.e. 7:5. How much of A and B have we taken away?
- we replace 9 L of mixture with 9 L of pure B. this means that however much A was in the removed portion, we gained that much pure B.
- the fraction of B in the vessel has gone from 5/12 to 9/16. by how much did it increase?
- you know how much B was gained and what fraction of the vessel this gain is. find the volume of the vessel.
- find the initial volume of A.
