yeah the lines are parallel, thats the key

foggy heron
#

From alternating angles, you get that 30 + x = 75. x=45. From alternating axles again, we get that 45 + 55 =100. Therefore, the angle that is left is 80. From linear pair, n=100. From vertical angles, we get that n+m+30=180, since n = 100, then 100 + m + 30 = 180, m = 50. therefore, n=100 and m = 50

trim stump
#

But m=50

vivid igloo
#

@dim aurora

slim plinth
#

How about this

dim aurora
#

Can 55 and 75 alternate?

trim stump
#

125-50=75

dim aurora
#

M+55=90
M=35

trim stump
#

180-75=105

#

Okay

#

I thought we have a 90 degree rt triangle

Js making sure it is the measure of just Z as well? The teacher put a ? On it and marked it wrong

trim stump
#

Maybe u forgot to add °? Idk but Z= arccos 45/53

trim stump
#

30 can also alternate at SRQ since they're both a parallel line intersection

#

Assuming its a right triangle itd be 28

#

Which, arccos 45/53 is still right

#

yeah

#

yeah

#

it is 61 my good friends

#

At least

#

thats what i got

trim stump
#

I got like

#

1850 - if I remember 800√5

marsh marlin
#

I think so

#

just find the mini shaded triangles and add with bug triangle

#

big

trim stump
#

I was at some point stuck at getting point slope because I was bugging with the signs

trim stump
#

The (10√5,0) and (0,10√5)

marsh marlin
#

bruh

#

you didnt need allat

#

why does every high level mathematician like chucking things on cooridinate grids

trim stump
#

I think the only time I didn't use coords was when I solved for the radius

trim stump
marsh marlin
#

or u could subtract radius from the two square length to get mini triangle length

trim stump
marsh marlin
#

for radius

#

and then with radius u can directly find each of the shaded areas

#

no chucking on coord grid

trim stump
#

I went in to solve the slope of the diagonal line

trim stump
#

And then the point slope of those triangles

#

Hella problematic

marsh marlin
#

lol

#

more fun problems

trim stump
#

I love how I can apply pythagorean theorem on all my problems in math

Can someone tell me how to find the area of a trapezoid if I have the length of the shorter leg and the perimeter??

silent plank
#

doesn't feel like there's sufficient info

trim stump
#

How to solve it if it's iso or right angled

grizzled yoke
jaunty jasper
#

what does it mean by the shorter diagonal anyway?

trim stump
#

What's the full statement

jaunty jasper
#

(i think i currently do not have the paper with me anymore)

silent plank
#

diagonals are segments formed between non-consecutive vertices

trim stump
#

Maybe there's some extra infos like
base2 is x as large or smth

wintry stone
#

Hello, is anyone here?

#

I just wanted to ask a quick question regarding rotations in 3D.

#

Can someone help me on that??

grave pond
#

If you ask your question, someone might.
If you don't, you'll never find out.

wintry stone
#

ok

#

can i ask it

#

question:

#

basically, can a rotation in a tilted plane centered at the origin be represented as 2 or 3 planar rotations in the planes XY, YZ and XZ. Where, we rotate in a base plane by theta and then in the other 1 or 2 planes by alpha and beta which are tilt angles of the tilted plane in comparison to the X axis and the Z axis?
Plz ping if interested.

silent plank
#

maybe it was supposed to be a rhombus

what is 48?

#

now im guessing the answer shud be 42, due to 90 - 48

vocal sentinel

#

thank you

weary urchin
exotic chasm
#

would 4d geometry be a topic here also?

wintry stone
#

yo would someone like to discuss 3d rotations without quaternions or matrices

#

?

exotic chasm
#

3d rotations "without" fancy nongeometric stuffs? sure

wintry stone
#

ok so u know that rotations happen in a tilted plane

#

one that is tilted from one of the existing orthogonal planes(XY, YZ, XZ) by some angle right?

#

well, my idea was that we could represent this rotation in that tilted plane using rotations in 2 or 3 orthogonal planes by decomposing the tilted plane itself

exotic chasm
#

ngl had a feeling if instead of using planes we should use the axis instead(?)

wintry stone
#

wdym

#

in a way we are rotating around axes

exotic chasm
#

for example rotating with z axis:
get the x1,y1
change to r,θ1
rotate the θ1 until it becomes θ2
change back to x2,y2

#

and only applicable to a point

wintry stone
#

uhh

#

ok wait let me understand

#

ok

#

hmm

#

ok i get it

exotic chasm
#

oh z coord still the same

wintry stone
#

yeah yeah

#

yeah that makses sense

#

but you need the radius of that point "on that plane"

#

you need to find that first and that is slow

exotic chasm
#

radius from the axis though

wintry stone
#

cuz it take s 1 sqr root, 2 multiplies and 1 add

exotic chasm
wintry stone
#

i want smth faster

#

which is what i aimed to do with my method

#

do u want me to explain it?

#

ok so tilted planes

#

its tlted in one or 2 directions

#

i want u to think that a tilted plane is just a normal base plane like XY, but rotated by some angle alpha in the YZ plane and by some angle Beta in the XZ plane

#

so

#

we can represent any rotation on it, as a base rotation in XY and then account for the tilt by rotating it further (in order) in XZ and YZ

#

so that we account for the extra tilt

#

all in all here is the important thing - once we do that, all the angles match up, and the point in some sense has basically been rotated in that plane without us needing to project and reproject

#

u with me?

#

where

#

like what do u want me to elaborate on?/

#

ok

#

what i meant was that, when u rotate in a base plane right, u aren't accounting for the extra tilt that the point accumulates if it is rotated in a tilted plane

#

think of it like a book.

#

the tiltedplane, is what happens when u rotate it around you finger, so like a basketball, but u do it in one or 2 directions

#

if you move you hand over the original book, it wont be the actual position that u would get if you moved your hand on the tilted book.

#

so u move your finger on the base book first and then, you rotate it by the tilt angles, so u move it in line with how much the tilted book is off from the original base book

#

once u do that, u account for the extra tilt of the tilted book that u woulnt get if u just rotate on the book when u hadn't tilted it.

#

do u get it now?

#

i think it would be easier to see it with a demonstration maybe

exotic chasm
#

it is

wintry stone
#

so u do understand it?

#

i don't quite have a video on me rn, but maybe i can search for one

exotic chasm
#

so say, if a tilt angle with m_x=1/2 and m_y=1/3

wintry stone
#

whats m_x and m_y here

exotic chasm
#

slopes

wintry stone
#

oh

exotic chasm
#

bcos planes has "two" slopes right

wintry stone
#

one

#

like it is m = y/x

#

for 3D it would be 3 slopes so m_XY, m_XZ and m_YZ

exotic chasm
#

or one if you consider the direction

wintry stone
#

ahh i guess

exotic chasm
wintry stone
#

yeah

exotic chasm
#

cos in this case we have an extra dimension, namely z

wintry stone
#

yeah

#

so 3 slopes?

#

n 3d

exotic chasm
#

eh, we only need 2 ig, m_x=Δz/Δx and m_y=Δz/Δy

#

though technically you can calculate slope of x and y

wintry stone
#

yeah, i guess

#

you would get the ratios of x, y and z from 2

#

slopes

#

not to be condescending, but may i ask how slopes are related to rotations here, i mean if u want to represent points with slopes, then i can try my best

#

like if u want, i can try to explain rotations with how the slopes change

exotic chasm
#

i'll use the slopes to determine z values of known x and y points i guess

wintry stone
#

i think it would be more intuitive for you

#

that's great but there is a slight issue

exotic chasm
#

for (x,y) values of (-1,-1), (-1,0), (-1,1) ... determine z from the given slope

wintry stone
#

wait, are we still talking about 3d rotations

exotic chasm
#

eh nevermind

wintry stone
#

or about planar ones

#

i think this is for planar right

#

like in the XY, YZ OR XZ planes seperately

exotic chasm
#

eh it was kinda both though

#

cos the initial plan was to calculate 3d rotation using the tilted plane thiingy right

wintry stone
#

ok well, i gotta say smth

#

when we rotate in a tilted plane, x, y and z all change so you would kind of need a universal slope so liek maybe y/x/z or smth, But that does not work

#

so

#

..

#

instead, you might want to calculate the slope of the point on that tilted plane right

#

but the thing is, to do that, u would need to project the point on to that plane and then reproject back to our space

#

and u can definitely do that, but its a bit slow

exotic chasm
#

now i wonder,
how would 8 points at $(\pm 1,\pm 1,\pm 1)$ if rotated to any directions you like, with your way

somber coyoteBOT
#

tsuitachi (tuitati)

exotic chasm
#

as in, the process

wintry stone
#

the plane is tited - it is not aligned with our orthogonal axes or space, so you need to first move it so that is does align, then rotate using slopes and then move it back as to not distort the space

wintry stone
#

you mean u want me to explain my way

#

well i would be delighted to do so

#

yes

#

ok now that u get the idea of what tilted planes are (better than me cuz i am a nebie here)

#

we can move on to how u actually rotate

#

ok

#

so lets say we have a 2d point

#

with an angle of theta

#

and i rotate it by some angle alpha

#

what will be the new angle??

#

any guesses

#

origin

#

in 2d

#

2d

#

srry 2d

#

like a line from the origin like u would have in cartesian coordinates

#

like some point(x, y)

#

its angle is theta, you rotate it counterclockwise by alpha, whats the new angle?

#

?

#

yes

#

ok

#

now what did we learn

#

that when we rotate...

#

angles..

#

?

#

go on

#

uhh, we are just rotating points, by adding the current angle plus the rotation angle

#

dont think of a specific method, just think generally

#

when we rotate, what happens to the angle

#

yeah

#

that is true

#

yes

#

but just be general with it

#

think about a vector in space

#

when you rotate it counterclockwise

#

what happens to the existing angle theta

#

it adds right??

#

so theta + alpha = new_angle

#

quick question, have u learnt about multiplying 2Dvectors?

#

ok

#

what happens to the radii

#

no no

#

just liek normal 2d vector multiplication

#

using imaginary coordinates

#

so lije: (a+bi)*(a+bi)

#

i am specifically talkingabout imaginary multiplication

#

cuz that fits the purpose here

#

have u learnt about it?

#

like how to multiply 2 complex numbers.

#

?

#

ok

#

usually one of the parallel line angle theorems is taken as an axiom

silent plank
#

ok, so you want to prove that alternate angles on paralle lines are congruent

slim plinth
minor heron
#

i mean

#

you could prove it with corresponding angles

silent plank
#

usually you'd take corresponding angles as the axiom
since vertical translation doesn't change the angle

hazy harbor
#

yeah any one of the parallel line angle theorems can be taken as an axiom to prove the others

minor heron
#

yup dont rlly think u can prove it without using another parallel line angle theorem

It would depend critically about which particular theory you're trying to prove it in, and not so much about Lean details.
I'm not familiar with any common development of basic geometry in Lean.

I mean, a Lean library for that might very well exist, I'm just not personally familiar with it.

Asking the actual question right away is more likely to get responses.

Asking "Can I ask...?" or "Does anyone know about...?" doesn't give people enough information to decide whether they can help, and answering can feel like a promise to help with the actual question, which they might find themselves unable to.

Hi can smn help w this it’s noncalc. Also angle CDA is 154

vocal sentinel
#

Then use assumptions if I is midpoint of CK

gentle jewel
#

A

#

I still don’t k what x is cz idk y

vocal sentinel
#

Strange that ABC is 26

#

That angle looks like approximately 90

gentle jewel
#

The diagram drew it wrong n said this og:

vocal sentinel
#

If it is OBD it would make sense

gentle jewel
#

The text might b wrong instead then

vocal sentinel
#

Holy shit why the printing says OBD = 26 (like what i guessed) and ABC is 26 there lol

#

Anyways OBD is isoceles triangle

gentle jewel
#

Yea I think angle abc’s not 26

vocal sentinel
#

Then you can find BOD

gentle jewel
vocal sentinel
#

Yup the sides are radii

#

If you find BOD you will quickly realise this angle and x also subtend same arc

vocal sentinel
gentle jewel
#

Is it x + 26=180? But they’re not opposing each other

#

Oh wait

#

Mb

#

That’s wrong

gentle jewel
vocal sentinel
#

You see triangle BOD right

gentle jewel
#

Ya

vocal sentinel
#

OB and OD, are they equal

#

And why?

gentle jewel
#

Ohh do I use Pythagoras

vocal sentinel
#

No...

gentle jewel
#

Cz it touches the tip from the center

vocal sentinel
#

Look again, OB and OD are ??? Of the circle?

gentle jewel
#

Radii

vocal sentinel
#

Then, OB and OD are?

gentle jewel
#

90

#

Degrees

#

Ohh

vocal sentinel
#

😑

gentle jewel
#

Oh.

vocal sentinel
#

OB = OD

#

They are lines, not angles

gentle jewel
#

Oh wait I wrote that on my paper but frgt to tell u

#

Mb

vocal sentinel
#

Yet you still get it wrong :v

gentle jewel
#

😭😭

#

What do I do next then

#

How does that help me

vocal sentinel
#

So OB =OD

#

Then, what is triangle OBD

gentle jewel
#

Isosceles? Is that the name

#

2 equal lines

vocal sentinel
#

Correct

#

Then angle OBD and ODB are?

gentle jewel
#

26

vocal sentinel
#

Then can you find BOD now?

gentle jewel
#

Yes

vocal sentinel
gentle jewel
#

Bod=28degrees

vocal sentinel
#

How did you get to this grade genuine question 😭

vocal sentinel
gentle jewel
#

Bro idk

#

I understand better when I talk lol

#

BUT IVE NOT FAILED

#

I PROMISE

vocal sentinel
#

Then is angle x and BOD subtending same arc?

gentle jewel
#

What does that mean

vocal sentinel
#

You have not studied subtended angle theorem?

gentle jewel
#

Yeah it’s alr idc

gentle jewel
#

Idr the names of the stuff

vocal sentinel
#

It have many stuffs, if two angles covering same arc then it is equal

#

But for this case angle BOD is centre of circle so it is twice of x

#

Read pls

gentle jewel

Someone tryna help me prove the ns^2/4tan(pi/n) method

#

For area of a polygon

#

My teacher said she’ll only accept me using that method if I can prove it

split the polygon into isoceles triangles from the center

#

and split each of those triangles into 2 right triangles

#

then derive it from there

#

But like idk where to go after

#

Wait

#

Dont tell me

#

ok

#

Do we solve for x

#

And we use 1/2 bh

queen juniper

use the properties of the 30 60 90 triangle

slim plinth

I plug in values

#

Then will we use 1/2 bh

5x + 2y = 180

slim plinth
#

What’s y for

stray isle
#

one of the base angles in the isoceles triangle

stray isle
#

then substitute it in for y

#

5x + 2(180-7x) = 180
5x + 360 - 14x = 180
-9x = -180

#

||x = 20||

Ok

wraith pilot
#

I’m having trouble getting this problem started

silent plank
#

apply cosine rule

wraith pilot
silent plank
#

continue

#

also in the previous question you've incorrectly written
sinBeta = 43.8
(assuming the calculation was correct)
after using inverse trig to get the angle, you'll no longer have the sin there, i.e just Beta = 43.8

wraith pilot
#

I’m not sure what to do after I get 0.72

#

Just find gamma and I leave it like that?

#

Or do I use the inverse of sin beta and then find gamma

silent plank
#

inverse trig to get your angle

#

and since Beta isn't opposite the longest side, you don't need to worry about ambiguous case

#

and then you can use angle and m to get gamma

wraith pilot
#

I think I’m wrong

silent plank
#

Wrong notation

#

(your angle) Beta = 45.8

#

Not sin^-1 =

wraith pilot
#

ChatGPT is also getting different angles but I’m not sure if their trig answers are super accurate

silent plank
#

don't trust chatgpt/ai with math

#

you have some rounding errors,
(and notation issue above)
other than that it's fine

wraith pilot

can anyone solve it?

#

my teacher asked me this and i cant solve it

loud sphinx
#

F

#

That tricky

nova sentinel
#

its hard right?

grave pond
#

Looks like an "adventitious angles"-type problem; those are quite tricky.

#

You can fill in a lot of the angles by angle sums and isosceles triangles -- in fact every angle that doesn't include the line DE as one of the legs. But typically to get the last step of the way will require either some trig functions that miraculously work together to produce an integer for alpha, or a really inspired argument that depends on "accidental" facts such as 20° being exactly 1/18 of a circle, and putting 18 of these triangles together in a wheel or something like that.

nova sentinel
#

hmm

#

so there can be a trig solution

#

i havent tried it yet

grave pond
#

Sure, if trig bashing is acceptable, then after deriving the easy angles you can put everything into a coordinate system, say, with B=(0,0) and C=(1,0), and calculate away. That's not even conceptually difficult. But (given that the teacher asked about this configuration in particular) it is pretty likely that alpha will end up as some multiple of 10° exactly, and the trigonometry will be useless for understanding why.

upper echo
# nova sentinel

Hint: ||Let H be a point on AB such than CH=BC, then CHE is equilateral, the triangles DHC and DHE are isosceles. So, by angle chasing you find alpha=80.||

# nova sentinel can i prove it though?

If you still want a geometric solution to the problem, I recommend working through those hints above, as it’s one of the shortest approaches. You’re unlikely to find a significantly simpler or shorter geometric solution. That said, a trigonometric approach is quite straightforward here too. But I’d suggest first drawing a more accurate diagram where the angles are represented correctly. Your current diagram is a bit misleading, as the visual angles are far from accurate.

i have found the solution on youtube

Perhaps someone can, but only if you actually ask a question about something that stumps you.

tiny acorn
lime crownBOT
# mystic cedar Can anyone help me in trigonometry

Asking the actual question right away is more likely to get responses.

Asking "Can I ask...?" or "Does anyone know about...?" doesn't give people enough information to decide whether they can help, and answering can feel like a promise to help with the actual question, which they might find themselves unable to.

I am in class 10th and this year trigonometry is started and I am doing them easily but these formulas like

Does anyone have any tips for unit 10 in geometry? Covering 10-1, 10-2, 10-4 and 10-5? I’m having trouble understanding 10-5…

silent plank
#

post specific questions
we don't know what resource you're using or even have it

hasty juniper
#

it’s mostly about Inscribed angles, Arc measurements, Arc lengths, Theta, “How to find arc __ using degrees” and stuff. I’ll send a couple images

#

I don’t have much with theta since my professor says I won’t need it for my final exam

silent plank
#

theta is just a variable/symbol like x

#

did you make attempts, where did you get stuck

hasty juniper
# silent plank did you make attempts, where did you get stuck

Yes I have attempted, I’ve messed up around how to find the relations to the measurements (as in the degrees and arcs, such as the first image up there) so I couldn’t really finish the rest of the problem. I mostly need help with figuring how the information given relates to the diagram and how to find the information needed from there.

silent plank
#

do you know and/or have access to a list of circle theorems

hasty juniper
#

yes, I have access to circle theorems.

#

it’s just that the way my professor explains it makes it difficult to understand.

silent plank
#

do you know what angle the tangent makes with the radius?

hasty juniper
#

I believe it’s a right angle

silent plank
#

yes

#

from there you can apply angle sum and solve for x in the first one

hasty juniper
#

oh

#

so what would I apply for the rest? Because it won’t always be in these same conditions

#

would I just use the theorems to help move on?

silent plank
#

yes, identify what theorems are applicable
set up your equation and solve

#

marking info on your diagram also helps

What’s the equation for the area of a triangle?

solid pivot

(l * w)/2

wanton hawk
#

Yep

#

Well personally I would call it (b*h)/2, but same concept

solid pivot
#

yea

wanton hawk
#

So h doesn’t have to be an actual side, just how tall it is

solid pivot
#

was going to do that but it wasn't 3d so it didn't feel right

#

yea

wanton hawk
#

All the triangles have ab in their name, so they all have the line ab

solid pivot
#

yup

wanton hawk
#

Since ce || ab, that means that the distance between them is constant

solid pivot
#

yeathat makes sense

wanton hawk
#

If you take ab to be the base, you know h is constant (since distance is constant)

solid pivot
#

oh ok so like the height of all the triangles r the same then right?

wanton hawk
#

Right!

#

And if b is the same…and h is the same…..

solid pivot

then the areas r the same

i feel so stupid

that was so simple

Well a bike tire is a hollow cylinder if you don’t wanna be technical, and if you do it’s a torus

#

Y is the cosine of that angle

On the unit circle

#

And cosine is the x value on the unit circle

#

So the x value on the top and bottom of the x axis is the same

f(x) is even <=> f(x) is symmetric about the y axis <=> f(-x) = f(x)

winged plinth
violet sluice
#

no it's not

winged plinth
#

"cos(x) fulfills the definition of an even function because cos(x) is even"

violet sluice
#

you can see from the graph of cos(x) that it is symmetric about the y-axis. thus it is even. thus cos(x) = cos(-x).

cinder spear
violet sluice
#

thx

#

but yeah if you look at the unit circle or just a graph of cosx you see that it exhibits symmetry in such a way that cos(x) = cos(-x)

Does anybody know how to do these types of questions? 2 of this are vaguely similar and i dont really know how to get the answer. I got these wrong on my quiz. (were allowed to seek outside help for quizzes)

the 3rd one should be the intersecting secant tangent theorem

i believe

should C=38?

well it told me that was wrong

You can find arc AD then calculate

what is arc AD

vocal sentinel
limber dagger
#

yay

#

thank you

vocal sentinel
#

It should be correct now

#

No worries catgiggle

limber dagger
#

is this 50

#

12+12+3+3+8+8+2+2

#

thats how you do that right

vocal sentinel
#

I think it is 11 +11 + 14 +14

#

I dont know if they say 2 and 3 implies on which part of the line

#

Because 2 tangents start from 1 point are equal

limber dagger
#

oh

limber dagger
#

😦

#

whats the difference

#

they both equal 50

vocal sentinel
#

Yeah but that is the logic

#

It should be the correct answer

limber dagger
#

ok

vocal sentinel
limber dagger
#

yeah

#

question 3 i got 72 cus 112+32 then divided that answer 144/2 gives me 72 but it says thats wrong

#

so im

#

confusedd

#

oh wait

#

i see now

#

i need to do that with the other two arcs

#

but how do i solve for the other two arcs

vocal sentinel
#

then divide all 2

limber dagger
#

i got 108

#

112+32=144 then 360-144 = 216

#

216/2=108

#

is that righ

vocal sentinel
#

yup

limber dagger
#

also this should be 125 right because 360-110 =250 then 250/2=125

vocal sentinel
limber dagger

thats the one i really struggle with so i just wanted to be sure

so uhh

#

if i have 2 sides of a triangle with no 90 degree angle, a and b (7 and 10cm both) and i have the angle alpha (30°), why would i have 2 different numbers for beta? and why would 1 of them be "more correct than the other?

beta can be either 45.6 or 135.6 degrees for some reason, and apparently it has to be 135.6 degrees according to chatgpt (yeah i know, bad source but i cant figure out why it would even say beta can only be 135.6 degrees)

i already teated it out, both angles make a functioning triangle but why would chatgpt say 45.6 is wrong?

don't trust llm ai for math

there are two possible values due to properties of the sine function

If an LLM bot says something about math that you don't know for sure, then there's a fair chance it's right. (The chance is better if it's at high-school or undergrad level, and especially if it's a general claim rather than something specific to a particular problem).
However, when the LLM bot says something that you have a halfway cogent reason to think is wrong, then it almost certainly is.

How would y’all do this? I mean, I’ve done a similar problem but the reciprocal trig is so confusing!! I liked using a triangle visualization but I DON’T know that inverse trig means when trying to draw triangles and whatnot

upper echo
golden knot
#

Those are nice?? really?? 😭

#

my first approach was plugging them into the cos(a+b) thingy but it was a MESS

#

with all the ugly trig functions

upper echo
golden knot
#

elaborate.. now i'm interested

#

how does pythagoras help here?

upper echo
#

ok, you know at once that sin(a)=3/5 and cos(a)=4/5

golden knot
#

um

#

i don't

#

really know

#

about that

upper echo
#

and sin(b)=12/13 and cos(b)=5/13

golden knot
#

how do i know that instantly?

upper echo
#

ok, that Pythagorean stuff is just the same base identity: cos(a)^2+sin(b)^2=1

golden knot
#

yaa i'm aware of dat awesome identity

upper echo
#

it's another form of the Pythagorean theorem

#

It's easy to check that 3^2+4^2=5^2 (In fact everyone should already know that) and 5^2+12^2=13^2

golden knot
#

yep yep that's all fine and easy

upper echo
#

so if you have a right triangle with an angle whose tan(a)=3/4 then you immediately know that its sides have a ratio of 3:4:5, and sin(a)=3/5 and cos(a)=4/5

golden knot
#

the fact that it's tan^-1 doesn't affect that at all?

upper echo
#

so, cos(a+b)=cos(a)cos(b)-sin(a)sin(b)=4/5 * 5/13-3/5 * 12/13

#

tan^-1 is just an angle. You don't need it. You need its cos and sine

golden knot
#

i don't really understand why tan^-1(3/4) wouldn't be tan(4/3) then you could construct a triangle with those sides tho

upper echo
#

say tan^-1(1/sqrt(3))=pi/6

golden knot
#

thennn tan(pi/6) = 1/rad3

#

right?
