Didint got the answer

#

The first answer is 2kpi/2 Where k is an integer

somber coyoteBOT
worthy root
#

🤔

#

Wot bro

#

Oh gotcha

#

Eeh

#

You equated the angles

#

I mean if sin(x)=sin(y) then we cannot imply that x=y

#

I am super confused

#

Where did that 2kpi came from

#

😭

dark sparrow
#

sin is periodic

#

that's where

worthy root
#

Ok I know that but

#

I think I mustdrop this question

#

That's ok

#

Makes sense bro

#

I got it

#

I appreciate your efforts !

#

I am done with trigonometry function . Now next is trig identities I hope I found then easy

#

Eeh

#

Sopving that equation I got - of the answer

#

t_2-t_1=-2pik/w

#

Sorry u were contact

#

Correct

#

I need help with b)

#

Of 9

#

@dark sparrow Ann can you help with this

#

Please !

#

It's the last question

dark sparrow

#

since x_1 - x_2 = 2a and x_1 and x_2 are both between -a and a, it must be that x_1 = a and x_2 = -a

quiet mason
#

krishna dont ask for that much help from here and try to understand them yoirself

#

youll see it will help you a lot

#

think till you get the answer

worthy root
#

Bro

#

I always try to do that

#

The text I am reading is not self explanatory

#

Also it has very limited knowledge

#

That's why

royal glade
#

ok so I've been stuck on this for hours and I finally broke someone help please

tawdry pivot
#

didn't you see the pic I gave you?

narrow sleet
#

It's quite obvious based on the pic

royal glade
#

yea I saw it but I need to find the sum with the infinite series and I'm struggling to find a and r

narrow sleet
#

What have you find?

royal glade
#

area of the first couple circles, but I struggle with anything trig related so I'm gonna see if I can work on it tomorrow morning bc it is almost 5am where I am at. thanks for the help!

narrow sleet
#

Did you find any pattern for the radius?

royal glade
#

there probably is one but I only have them in decimal form so it would be hard for me to see a pattern

tawdry pivot
#

consider circle 1 and circle 2, then consider circle 2 and circle 3, these 2 structures are similar so the radii are being multiplied by a constant factor each time

royal glade
#

ok that's where I'm struggling at. Well good night and thanks

narrow sleet
#

,rotate -90

somber coyoteBOT
narrow sleet
#

This should help

#

Basically find the GP of the sum of circle

tawdry pivot
#

you can directly calculate R and r and then immediately put them into an infinite sum to get the total area

narrow sleet
#

Yeah

night karma
#

Pi = 5?

narrow sleet
#

Stop posting in it in several channel and also this shouls be suitable in #chill

mighty narwhal
night karma
#

But.. is this a question of yours, or just something you wanted to share?

upper karma
#

its a meme he wanted to share

night karma
#

Ah, that explains 😝

worthy root
#

Of o am not wrong pi =3.14

#

\approx

mighty narwhal
#

Hmmm

somber coyoteBOT
mighty narwhal
#

Im pretty sure this wont be 5

#

I also have no idea how did someone came up with this formula

dark sparrow
#

ramanujan

#

it was all ramanujan

#

blame him

mighty narwhal
#

But how did he get this
Like did he just got high and had god come down to him and giving this to him?

upper karma
#

yes

mighty narwhal
#

Idunno what did he got high from but I want some too

subtle gate
#

how do you call lines go through the same intersection? copunctual? because if points are all in a line they're called colinear if they are in the same plane coplanar? Is there such a word for having the same intersection point?

idle bloom
#

Hold on is that expression = π or ≈π

subtle gate
#

it's pi.

idle bloom
#

How the fuck

#

How do you come up with this shit

subtle gate
#

Smart people. and it was probably not intentionaly found to calculate pi

idle bloom
#

Ramanujan did all this stuff without formal training or anything else so damn

subtle gate
#

For example $\sum_{i=0}^{\infty} \frac{(-1)^i}{2i+1} = \frac{\pi}{4}$ wasn't found to calculate digits of pi.

somber coyoteBOT
fossil ledge
#

Oh I came up with a way to calculate Pi once as a kid

subtle gate
#

Infact it's really, really, really insanely bad at doing exactly that

#

i only ever thought about the hexagon expansion thing that seems reasonable for pi

upper karma
#

how do you call lines go through the same intersection? copunctual? because if points are all in a line they're called colinear if they are in the same plane coplanar? Is there such a word for having the same intersection point?

#

@subtle gate concurrent

subtle gate
#

thanks!

vague pagoda
#

trig makes me triggered

#

:((

small raptor
#

how come? I've been poking at it on my own preparing for pre-calc. It's not that bad so far.

vague pagoda
#

being dumb here, trying to do some double & half angle identity limit stuff

small raptor
#

I find the applied trig to be quite interesting

vague pagoda
#

i just came back to the same result i started from

#

i tried to do some stuff with the identities but idk what to actually do lmao

#

i probably should study trig or something

small raptor
#

While I don't think I can help, you could probably expand on this by showing an example of a problem that you're struggling with

vague pagoda
#

uh its this

#

i dont necessarily want help but its the problem

small raptor
#

yeah, I don't have a whole hell a lot of experience in calculus either. 😛 Other than knowing that 2(1-sin(x)) where 1-sin(x) is 0/undefined. That's the extent of my ability.

vague pagoda
#

this real difficult for me lmao

small raptor
#

Not sure why double/half identities as that is usually when A/2 or 2A, this is just x.

vague pagoda
#

i also dont understand how the result can be 3

#

oh wait nvm

#

its the pythagorean identity..

#

my bad it was only pythagorean and double angle identities smh

#

ima try again

#

(another question ofc)

#

also what is this supposed to mean?

#

i mean the expression

#

it seems weird to me

devout shell
#

Says find the limit as θ approaches π/2 of the expression

vague pagoda
#

i know

small raptor
#

tan square is being multiplied to 1-sin

vague pagoda
#

what are [] supposed to mean

small raptor
#

It's just ()

vague pagoda
#

oh

small raptor
#

Brackets can be more clearer than ()

vague pagoda
#

i see

small raptor
#

I feel like I should drill trig identities before hitting calculus after this. 😛

steel hawk
#

yes thats a very good idea

#

makes some questions easier to handle

small raptor
#

Very much so. Like I can understand why they are undefined, but I wouldn't know how to actually solve the problems shown

#

Just general notions, but with great doubt.

vague pagoda
#

this is beyond horrible for me

#

i mean i like math but i cant understand trig identities

small raptor
#

They're generally derivatives of other identities in particular Pythagorean and Sum/difference identities

vague pagoda
#

i see

small raptor
#

Probably help if you can find a trig book for cheap and simply study the identities section

vague pagoda
#

i will be getting a trig book soon

#

like, very soon

small raptor
#

The one I'm using to study is like 10 dollars . 😛 very helpful thus far

vague pagoda
#

just waiting for the books to arrive lmao

#

its basically all of the hs math

#

we have

small raptor
#

I scrub used book stores to find mathematic books. I think I have a calculus book for 5 dollars.

vague pagoda
#

it was 50 euros for 10 books

#

so pretty good

small raptor
#

In any case, the basic identities are Ratio (based on right triangle), Reciprocals, and Pythagorean. So if you study those, you might have an easier time. The more complex leads to Sum/difference.

#

WHich leads to double and half

vague pagoda
#

aight i will study that

#

basically everything i know is sohcahtoa

small raptor
#

If you draw a right triangle, and play around with it using Algebra, you could potentially just figure out the identities yourself. They aren't exactly elusive

vague pagoda
#

so all im able to do is basically just find the sides and angles of right triangles lmao

#

the unit circle is taught AFTER diff calc here

small raptor
#

... That's silly.

#

Unit Circle is the core part of Trig. Like, my text book teaches it right off the bat after Right triangle identities

vague pagoda
#

i know

#

also the chain rule is featured on the "trig functions" course

#

yes its called that

small raptor
#

I know nothing of Chain rule. I assumed it was Calculus and not Trig

vague pagoda
#

so no, the chain rule isnt a topic of the course that has to do with derivatives

#

idk what kind of idea was that

#

yeah it is calc

small raptor
#

I'm ignorant after a certain point in mathematics, so no idea of the intentions.

vague pagoda
#

also i heard they just differentiate things on that course

#

i see i know nothing either

#

im a 9th grader

#

not even in high school here

small raptor
#

Teenager then? Ah, well, just accept the nature of it, and always take responsibility of your personal education.

vague pagoda
#

yea

small raptor
#

Although, surprising you're doing that stuff now. In my high school education, Highest math required is I think Algebra II. 😛 Regardless, going off topic here.

umbral snow
#

You need the unit circle definition to make sense of radian measure, and you need radian measure to make sense of trig derivatives

#

You must at least understand the unit circle, and radians?

vague pagoda
#

I see

#

I wonder what they differentiate on the "derivative" course then

umbral snow
#

Oh wait, you're not in calc?

#

Are you sure they don't mean "derive"?

vague pagoda
#

they mean differential calculus

umbral snow
#

Welp, good for them, starting that early

vague pagoda
#

and no, im not in calculus because that isnt taught to 9th graders here

fossil ledge
#

Just to be super clear, what’s the derivative of Sin 2x @vague pagoda

#

Or Sin x even

vague pagoda
#

sin x is cos x

#

im not in calc why are u askin

fossil ledge
#

Just really want to make sure you meant derivative and not derive, it’s pretty shocking to me

vague pagoda
#

what is shocking to u? please explain

fossil ledge
#

But hey, I guess different countries do it differently

#

Doing trig derivatives before a Calc class

vague pagoda
#

NO

#

thats the opposite I was saying

#

I said trig derivatives is AFTER calc class

fossil ledge
#

Oh, that’s standard then

vague pagoda
#

what they differentiate on the calc course? just power rule? :/

#

i just wonder that

fossil ledge
#

There is a lot in Calc then just derivatives

vague pagoda
#

i know...

#

i was talking about differential calculus course

#

no integrals

fossil ledge
#

Yes, there is still things than just derivatives in a Differential Calc course

vague pagoda
#

i know. they surely do differentiation too...

fossil ledge
#

Atleast where I’m from, we still did limits, curve sketching, optimization

#

Most of these require derivatives, but it’s not like you do power rule all day

vague pagoda
#

i mean because the chain rule isnt taught before the trig course

fossil ledge
#

Why would chain rule be taught before Calc

vague pagoda
#

i would imagine that is an important part of calculus

#

i mean why isnt it taught in the calc course

#

.-.

fossil ledge
#

It probably is

vague pagoda
#

it isnt

#

its taught in trig course here

small raptor
#

Calculus is a broad topic though. There is a lot of topics to cover for beginners

vague pagoda
#

i know just wondering

fossil ledge
#

You just said you didn’t do derivatives in your trig class wtf

vague pagoda
#

dont mind me

#

i think u got confused

#

it is taught in the high school trig course which comes right after diff calc

fossil ledge
#

What is taught in your HS TRIG

vague pagoda
#

chain rule + trig derivatives

#

._.

fossil ledge
#

so the sequencing is fine then

vague pagoda
#

(and trig stuff obviously)

#

yeah i guess so

#

people just said to me its weird that chain rule comes after calc

fossil ledge
#

It’s weird that your trig is after your Calc

vague pagoda
#

thats only because the basic trig is included in the geometry course

#

(there are 10 courses of hs math here)

#

all mandatory ones

small raptor
#

Depends. In my high school, trig was not a thing at all, and generally shoved as a subsection of Pre-calculus and Algebra II

fossil ledge
#

We had only 5 math courses

vague pagoda
#

we have "Numbers and sequences", "Polynomial Functions and Equations", "Geometry", "Vectors", "Analytic Geometry", "Differential Calculus", "Trigonometric Functions", "Root and Logarithmic Functions", "Integral Calculus" and "Probability and statistics"

#

idk what is this and why was there a need to have this many courses

radiant nimbus
#

arcsin is the same thing as saying sin^-1 right?

tawdry pivot
#

yes

radiant nimbus
#

cool ty

fleet skiff
#

can someone help?

#

the teacher never taught us this and expected us to know how to solve it

olive solar
#

please don't use the helper ping without waiting 15 minutes first

fringe dirge
olive solar
fleet skiff
#

i apologize.

#

i forgot. my bad.

#

i'll reread it

olive solar
#

what do you know about parallel lines, the property of angles formed by the transversal, and supplementary angles?

#

what do you think, at least

#

give me your reckoning

fleet skiff
#

supplementary angles are 180 degrees

#

parallel lines never intersect

#

besides that, i think im clueless.

#

we just started this topic and

#

the teacher was really vague

#

disregard i got the answer

#

thank you though

olive solar
#

alrighty

vague pagoda
#

finally i am starting to get this trig identity thing

#

i got the right answer

#

at least.

tranquil birch
#

I always read this Gyazo as gay zoo

worthy root
grand raven
grand raven
#

ok i know that but i don't know how to do it

worthy root
grand raven
#

can you tell me how the hell we find the length of AP

fossil ledge
#

That’s where I was lost, the non-square makes the question pretty weird imo

small raptor
#

Well, since the four corners are essentially right triangles, I would just use the radius of the circle to get a right triangle, then get the length of the arc. Once you get the arc, you got a segment of the corner triangles. However, if it's a rectangle, would the circle be more of an oval?

grand raven
#

not necessarily

#

R and Q would just be placed differently for APQR to be a square/rectangle

small raptor
#

Oh, I misread the statement.

spark stag
#

Suggestion/hint: set up the equation for Pythagorean's theorem, using some variable to represent the length of the red line.

grand raven
#

ok yea but i don't know the length of AP

#

shorter side QP = AR = 5 is the only given

spark stag
#

then use that to find the length of AP

grand raven
#

but how

spark stag
#

wait, hold on

#

that shape is... impossible

grand raven
#

APQR is not a square

spark stag
#

rather, APQR must be a square

grand raven
#

it does not necessarily have to be

spark stag
#

it must be

#

either that, or the shape inscribed is not a circle

grand raven
#

no. by adjusting the points R and Q you create a shape with different dimensions

#

and also dragging P with that

spark stag
#

oh, sorry; I thought the red and blue triangle that was drawn formed a right triangle

#

apparently not

narrow sleet
spark stag
#

yes

narrow sleet
#

In case you guys need a bigger diagram

spark stag
#

I was missing context

#

anyway, in that case this can't be solved

small raptor
#

Could the nature of parallel of a rectangle be used? It's bisecting another parallel line (The square) albiet, a small segment.

spark stag
#

there's infinitely many solutions

#

oh wait, I was missing AR = QP

#

sorry, I'm really tired

grand raven
#

yea it's a rEctangle

spark stag
#

that simplifies this a lot, though

#

consider where the point P must lie on the circle, then

#

wait, this is still unsolvable

#

🤔

#

are you sure this is all the information?

narrow sleet
#

Yes

#

I think there should mention what is AQ or PR

small raptor
#

is it unsolvable? Should the bisection make a 90 degree angle?

spark stag
#

with the information given, the shape could "look like" any of those rectangles + the circle

#

but those would all give different radii

#

(Excuse the terrible drawing, you get the gist)

grand raven
#

my teacher might have lacked some given but that's all she said

#

hmmm

small raptor
#

I think it's just trig functions since I feel we can bisect using QP and QR, this allows for a 90 degree angle. We already know one side is 5

spark stag
#

why is bisecting QP and QR helpful?

small raptor
#

Allows you to have a triangle

#

with a right angle

spark stag
#

what will the angles of that triangle be?

small raptor
#

Fair enough

subtle gate
#

Are in similiar triangles with scaling factor k, the lines connecting a vertex and the orthocenter also in ratio of the scaling factor to each other?

formal bolt
#

@subtle gate It seems so to me, try proving the angles of the arising triangles are the same

subtle gate
#

?

formal bolt
#

I think you want to prove that the triangles formed by the orthocenter and two vertices in both initial triangles are similar

subtle gate
#

mkay...?

formal bolt
#

Don't you? Maybe I misunderstood

#

Don't you wanto to prove that CGB and EHF are similar triangles? @subtle gate

#

I'm bad at drawing even with geogebra so be indulgent for that

subtle gate
#

geogebra has tools to help you... ehrm well yeah

formal bolt
#

I know it does, that's why I am bad

#

For not knowing how to use them

#

Then, as I was saying, prove that their angles are couple-wise equal

#

It is possible to do so using angles subtended by arcs

subtle gate
#

you click on more... and then there is orthogonals...

formal bolt
#

I'll save it for next time, now this seems sufficient

#

From then on you can use the power of imagination

subtle gate
#

this seems like something i could do

#

i'll try it on my own

formal bolt
#

Nice, let me know when you succeed if you want !

#

However I saw some of the commands you talked about, but for example I don't know how to expand the triangle by some factor

upper karma
#

can someone give me a few reasons to why i should use a compass and straightedge in geometry

cinder portal
#

Are you doing constructions?

upper karma
#

yeah

#

besides being inaccurate what are the disadvantages of not using a compass and straightedge

fringe dirge
#

I mean I'm not quite sure what answer you're looking for

#

Other than it's been interesting to see what we can and cannot do with those tools

#

The tools aren't powerful enough for you to be able to do everything

#

But they also aren't weak enough to not be able to do anything

#

@upper karma

upper karma
#

okay thanks

vague pagoda
#

what am I doing

worthy root
#

Not doing math

small raptor
#

Yeah, that question is a philosophy question

worthy root
#

Lol

grave fulcrum
dark sparrow
#

what is giving you trouble here

grave fulcrum
#

How do I solve for the dimensions? do I just solve for 4x=12?

fossil ledge
#

Yes

grave fulcrum
#

oh wow that easy my bad

upper karma
subtle gate
#

,rotate 90

somber coyoteBOT
subtle gate
#

,rotate 180

somber coyoteBOT
upper karma
#

Nvm thanks

dire rampart
#

@grave fulcrum it's a rectangle not a square

subtle gate
#

oki

grave fulcrum
#

so then what is the equation then?

upper karma
#

for 31

#

the sides of a triangle have lengths of 4, 6, and x. Write inequality that states the possible values of x

#

sum of two sides greater than third side

#

so like 6 - 4 < x < 6 + 4

#

2 < x < 10

#

-2 < x < 10

#

lol

#

should just be 0 < x < 10

#

the sides of the triangle can't be negative

#

Lmao

#

Ye

#

makes sense

#

thanks

#

np

formal bolt
#

Wait shouldn't x also be greater than the diff?

#

Like 2<=x<=10?

upper karma
#

Supposed it’s not equal

formal bolt
#

@grave fulcrum maximize xy when x+y=6
With am-gm, for instance?

upper karma
#

Just <>

#

Idk

#

If a triangle has two congruent angles it’s isosceles?

grave fulcrum
#

?

formal bolt
#

The triangle could collapse though

#

A=xy, x+y=6

dire rampart
#

*2x+2y

#

nvm

grave fulcrum
#

thanks man

grave fulcrum
#

If 2x+2y=12 then how do I get an answer since you cant find any variables values

upper karma
#

lol

#

you're maximising xy given 2x = 12 - 2y

chilly ocean
#

What would be the process to figure out sin(40)=cos(x)?

#

would I just take the inverse cosine of sine(40)?

fringe dirge
#

No

chilly ocean
#

How else?

fringe dirge
#

Draw a right triangle

chilly ocean
#

k

umbral snow
#

In a sense yes,
x = cos⁻¹(sin(40))

But that doesn't really give you more info

chilly ocean
#

then what does a triangle give me?

vagrant elk
#

draw it and see

fossil ledge
#

I wanna give hint but im not sure if its too much

vagrant elk
#

like, idk man, it's much easier to see what it gives you when you actually take what it has to offer

fossil ledge
#

okay ill give it try

#

@chilly ocean can you label each length A,B, and C?

glad snow
#

Given a point P lying on the x-y plane away from the origin O in a 3 dimensional space with axes x,y,z, is there a nice simple formula for converting the quarternion to the angle between the x axis and the line OP?

#

given we also have the 3 dimensional quarternion for the orientation of OP with P lying on the x axis

#

purpose: because in unity2d it only gives the quarternion i could not find how to find 'the usual beginner type of angles' and i found that its not really a linear relationship between the 'beginner angles' versus the quarternion angles

#

also, what are beginner angles called?

#

there are too many types of angles and i couldn't find a catalogue of the type of angles at least in this sense

chilly ocean
#

OOOOOOO

#

@fossil ledge THANK YOU SO MUCH

#

Its literally so simple

fossil ledge
#

the other little trick is sin(x) = cos(90-x)

#

no worries, its simple tricks but you dont really see them until you look for them :P

spark stag
#

i wouldnt call it "the other trick"

#

since you can see why it works when you draw the right triangle

#

since the angles in a right triangle add to 180, and there's already a right angle, the other two angles must add to 90

#

so x and (90 - x)

fossil ledge
#

yea I guess its just a shortcut if you have done it once tho

upper karma
#

Alright y'all

#

i need help

#

with my hw

#

can someone help me

fossil ledge
upper karma
#

it says

#

the line through (-1,-6) and is parallel to the line through (-1,7) and (5,4)

#

write the equation of the line

fossil ledge
#

okay so whats giving you trouble

upper karma
#

ok so

#

i want to make sure

#

this is write

#

right

#

i took the slap

#

slope

#

of

#

(-1,7) and (5,4)

#

and got -1/2

#

is that right firstof all

fossil ledge
#

no

#

how are you calculating slope?

upper karma
#

.

#

what do u mean

#

y2-y1

#

/

#

x2-x1

fossil ledge
#

yep

#

oh jheez i subtracted in my head wrong

#

no you were correct about -1/2

#

so yes the slope is -1/2

upper karma
#

ok

#

now

#

when i

#

do point slope

#

form

#

i get this

#

y=-1/2x+13/2

#

i used (-1,7)

#

is that right

fossil ledge
#

the line goes through -1,6

#

so use that point to solve for b

upper karma
#

-7*

#

I have put a geometry question in #help-4

fossil ledge
#

-1,-6

upper karma
#

-7...

#

not -6

#

i said (-1,7)

#

@fossil ledge

#

oh wait

#

ur right

#

but

#

thats not

#

what i want

#

i need to find

#

another point

#

that doesnt make

#

the b

#

a fraction

fossil ledge
#

you want a line that goes through -1,-6 and parallel with that other line

upper karma
#

can u help me witht hat

#

@fossil ledge

#

ok help me

fossil ledge
#

i am helping you, stop pinging me

upper karma
#

..

fossil ledge
#

we have the slope of the line we are trying to create

upper karma
#

i need

#

to find

#

a point

#

that doesnt

#

make b

#

a fraction

fossil ledge
#

why

upper karma
#

because

#

my teacher

#

is stupid

#

and she says

#

u cant plot

#

13/2

#

or 23

#

2/3

#

exactly

#

on graph paper

#

scaling

fossil ledge
#

scale your paper

upper karma
#

I am trying to help, but I really need help

fossil ledge
#

make each square 0.5

upper karma
#

mood

#

no

#

she wont

#

allow that

#

i need a point

#

that makes b

#

not a fraction

fossil ledge
#

well too bad then lol

wym

fossil ledge
#

thats not how math works

upper karma
#

you cannot do anything else

#

yes

#

u can find

fossil ledge
#

if b is a fraction, its a fractoin

upper karma
#

another

#

point

#

on the graph

#

that makes b

#

or scale the graph

trail minnow
#

what

upper karma
#

no

fossil ledge
#

cap

upper karma
#

she wont allow

trail minnow
#

there is no other point

fossil ledge
#

what is b?

upper karma
#

look

fossil ledge
#

do you know what b is

upper karma
#

the points given

#

are

#

(-1,7)

#

(5,4)

#

i found the slope

#

and created

#

the equation

#

y=-1/2x+13/2

#

now

#

i cant let

#

13/2

fossil ledge
#

where did you get 13/2

upper karma
#

i did

fossil ledge
#

you arent showing your work

upper karma
#

y-7=-1/2(x+1)

#

and then

#

y-7=-1/2x-1/2

#

and then added the 7

#

and got 13/2

fossil ledge
#

what

upper karma
#

its called

#

point slope..

fossil ledge
#

thats not how you find b

upper karma
#

formula

#

what do u mena

#

its called point slope

fossil ledge
#

first of all a few things

upper karma
#

im trying tofind

#

the equation

fossil ledge
#

point slope is y2-y1/x2-x1

upper karma
#

but then

#

thats not point slope

#

thats slope formula

#

u knwo

fossil ledge
#

using two points...

upper karma
#

u know what

#

let me take a

#

pic

#

number 5

#

@fossil ledge

fossil ledge
#

yes

upper karma
#

ok

#

u see it

#

ok so

#

i need to

#

make the b

fossil ledge
#

can you allow me to speak?

upper karma
#

ok

fossil ledge
#

so we found the slope to be -1/2

#

we are find the equation of the line through (-1,-6), NOT THE POINT-SLOPE

#

the equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is our slope and b is our y-intercept

upper karma
#

it says equation of a line parallel

fossil ledge
#

what does parallel mean

upper karma
#

.

fossil ledge
#

what is .?

upper karma
#

sigh

#

i think im better off

#

doing it

#

mysef

fossil ledge
#

thonkstein go ahead

upper karma
#

if you're still around, can you help me with that geometry question in #help-4

#

I just want to somewhat understand it, then go to bed

fossil ledge
#

im bad at geometry, Cap's question wasnt even geometry or trig

#

it was just prealg-algebra

upper karma
#

Yeah, seemed like alg to me thonkstein

fossil ledge
#

I do my best not to tiger-dad when I teach but like what do you do when they say what you are doing is wrong

lusty quest
#

if factored, the answer would be 5+4sinx

ebon spear
#

Just expanding (2+sin(t))^2 should yield something workable

lusty quest
#

holdup, is this asking me to just do:

#

(2+sint)(2+sint) + cos ^2t?

fossil ledge
#

expand the (2+sint)^2

lusty quest
#

(2+sint)(2+sint)?

#

mmm ok

@upper karma sorry to ping . But what would be a good book to learn trigonometry

worthy root

REEEE no reply

vague pagoda

Differentiation is not that hard. It requires a lot of time and dedication to master it, though. I tried to learn calculus in a few weeks. It was not a good idea. I ended up having to rewind most of the material.
My math teacher recommended me to start with Algebra.

fossil ledge
#

How are you learning Differentiation on before Algebra...

worthy root
#

broke i will learn calculus in weeks

vague pagoda
#

I know Algebra

fossil ledge
#

Derivatives are also learnable in a few weeks time

left ermine
#

when i was learning calculus in hs a lot of students did poorly bc they did not have a firm grasp on algebra

#

which impeded their learning differentiation

worthy root
#

I am good at algebra

vague pagoda
#

"Your text compares in readability to The New York Times. It is likely to be understood by a reader who has at least a 10th-grade education (age 16)." how to make my text easier to understand?

#

the sentences are short already

worthy root
#

Why don't you go to khancadmey

vague pagoda
#

I am there lol

worthy root
#

And start from very basics of it

#

I am learning calculus for physik in weeks

vague pagoda
#

I have done 25% of the AP calc course there

worthy root
#

Don't worry you will this shit

vague pagoda
#

huh

worthy root
#

It requires a little bit of dedication

#

And also concentration

vague pagoda
#

didnt u read what i wrote

worthy root

No

"Differentiation is not that hard. It requires a lot of time and dedication to master it, though. I tried to learn calculus in a few weeks. It was not a good idea. I ended up having to rewind most of the material.

#

its from a school thing

worthy root

Ohk

its not real life

Wdym by "not real life "FeelsSpecialMan

vague pagoda

a story for school

#

that is

#

for English class*

worthy root
#

Bye

vague pagoda
#

bye

#

have fun differentiating

worthy root
#

I am very tired

#

The challenege problems literally depress me

vague pagoda
#

why

#

just try harder

worthy root
#

They take s lot of time

vague pagoda
#

I did this

worthy root
#

For example

vague pagoda
#

wasnt that difficult

fossil ledge
#

Not everyone is at the same level cotton.

vague pagoda
#

i know

worthy root
#

For example finding the inverse of f(x,y)=(x+y,x-y)

fossil ledge
#

Just because you can do challenge problems doesn’t mean everyone can

worthy root
#

I am small bren

vague pagoda
#

its easy

#

just trig identities

worthy root
#

For example finding the inverse of f(x,y)=(x+y,x-y)

vague pagoda
#

I barely even knew what trigonometry was 4 months ago

worthy root
#

Is the hardest thing I have done today

vague pagoda
#

or calculus

#

or precalc

fossil ledge
#

Who are you trying to impress cotton

vague pagoda
#

no one

#

just stating the truth

worthy root
#

Lol

small raptor
#

You only did one problem

left ermine
#

you guys give me cancer

vague pagoda
#

my point was, you can learn too

#

i did many problems

worthy root
#

He is not trying to impress

#

SHe was just trying to motivate me

vague pagoda
#

she* but yes

#

neveza, it was an example..

#

ive done many problems

small raptor
#

She he... What is the difference

vague pagoda
#

gender

fossil ledge
#

You can motivate without stating your accomplishments

#

I did Calc 1 and 2 in 3 weeks

vague pagoda
#

yeah i know

fossil ledge
#

But I don’t need to state that to help someone

small raptor
#

Sounds more condencending than motivating

vague pagoda
#

youve mentioned it

worthy root
#

Who are you trying to impress ?

fossil ledge
#

Exactly Neveza

vague pagoda
#

Well thats an opinion

fossil ledge
#

I’m trying to show you that going above your current grade doesn’t make you some savant, lots of people do it

vague pagoda
#

If I can learn you can learn too

#

I already know it

#

I do not want to be one

#

"savants" are usually autistic or intellectually disabled but have 1 special skill

fossil ledge
small raptor
#

Heh

fossil ledge
#

Well, I leave you be then

vague pagoda
#

lmao ok

#

what was the point of yours?

fossil ledge
#

Good luck on the rest of your education and academic goals

worthy root
vague pagoda
#

thanks

#

idk what I even did

small raptor
#

Gosh wish I was a savant. Then I would have a skill

vague pagoda
#

wish you were gifted instead

#

tbh i already estimate most of you are gifted in mathematics

small raptor
#

Well, I am certainly special

worthy root
#

Lmao

vague pagoda
#

special I see

worthy root
#

The gifted are the one who have solved hell lot of problems

vague pagoda
#

have you considered twice-exceptionality?

worthy root
#

In math

vague pagoda
#

Krishna

worthy root
#

Yes

vague pagoda
#

Its about the level of knowledge not solving many problems

#

although that comes with it, too.

worthy root
#

Well mathematics is all about problem solving tbj

#

Tbh*

small raptor
#

Solving problems shows your knowledge

vague pagoda
#

yeah

#

of course

worthy root
#

Yea

vague pagoda
#

depends what kind of problems they are and what is your current knowledge level

worthy root
#

Solving basic problem show level of understanding I understand

vague pagoda
#

if its basic arithmetic it really doesnt show much if you are a mathematician

#

but that is good for a kid

worthy root
#

Even though I have small bren

#

I am smarter than all of you 😎

vague pagoda
#

u got big brian

#

:))

worthy root
#

hype yup

#

Bye . I will lesrn transformation today

#

And graph of trigs****

#

Trigs

vague pagoda
#

graph of drugs thonk

worthy root
#

Graph of trig functions lol

vague pagoda
#

I see

#

have fun with maths

worthy root
#

Tbh

#

People say math is fun I totally agree with it

vague pagoda
#

I agree

trail minnow
#

math in an of itself is not all that stressful

#

math classes and feeling like you have to do good can be tho

worthy root
#

Math can be stressful sometimes

fossil ledge
#

Math is not stressful

trail minnow
#

rly?

#

it can certainly be frustrating at points

worthy root
#

Yes

fossil ledge
#

Your own goals are what make it stressful

small raptor
#

Math can be exhausting though

trail minnow
#

but i don't know if i've ever found math in isolation to induce stress

fossil ledge
#

Exhausting I agree

worthy root
#

I mean frustrating

#

Sorry English is my second language

vague pagoda
#

I set too high expectations for myself

trail minnow
#

it's okay 👍

worthy root
#

Yeah sometimes it's frustrating

trail minnow
#

let's not find out how my word choice looks in hebrew monkaS

vague pagoda
#

And get disappointed when its not a perfect score

#

I should stop doing that tbh.

trail minnow
#

i used to feel that way with math

#

then my math teacher put AMC problems on my test and changed them to be harder and I stopped living

fossil ledge
#

I’m happy with 80 lol

trail minnow
#

i try to get 100s on most tests tho

vague pagoda
#

In last math exam I failed with the simplest thing, that was measurement units

trail minnow
#

define "failed"

worthy root
#

For example 15. Mins ago I didn't got why when we add a positive constant to input it shifts leftwards but I know understand the behaviour so it's no more stress.

small raptor
#

I am d student back in high school. 🤷

vague pagoda
#

Luckily only 2 points were subtracted

trail minnow
#

in the US a failing grade is a 65

#

lmao

fossil ledge
#

2 points

#

Failing

vague pagoda
#

I mean the question

trail minnow
fossil ledge
trail minnow
#

i can relate tho

vague pagoda
#

I got 1 out of 3 points

fossil ledge
#

It’s a familiar sight but that’s not failing bud

vague pagoda
#

all because a simple mistake

#

:(

trail minnow
#

when i get below a 95 on a bio test i feel like i fucked up too

worthy root
#

The feeling of confusion in mathematics is the most uncomfortable one .

vague pagoda
#

failing is 20-30 percent here

#

and its middle school

trail minnow
#

oof lol

#

you're 15?

vague pagoda
#

the exams are little different here

#

14

trail minnow
#

ah

worthy root
#

I am 15

trail minnow
#

noice

vague pagoda
#

No multiple choice questions usually

trail minnow
#

i am too

vague pagoda
#

u need to write the answers

trail minnow
#

math exams at my school tend to be 7 multiple choice and then like 3 short answer

#

god i hated geo

vague pagoda
#

or I mean

trail minnow
#

fuck that class

worthy root
#

I like geometry

trail minnow
#

it cut my GPA

#

so bad

vague pagoda
#

u have to calculate them in a piece of paper and u can use a calculator

trail minnow
#

not that bad but still

worthy root
#

Geometey is my thing man

small raptor
#

I slept through geometry and made a high B

worthy root
#

Algebra is what I suck at problem solving

fossil ledge
#

Geometry is pandaRee

trail minnow
#

it went down by like 2 points cause of that class cry

vague pagoda
#

in our geometry exam the equations were on the smart board so everyone could see them

worthy root
#

Geometey is very easy to Me. Because I can see what I am trying to do

vague pagoda
#

I mean stuff like pi * r^2

small raptor
#

Pies are round

fossil ledge
#

Memorizing equations doesn’t make you good at math

worthy root
#

But in algebra . We do a lot of trials and errors , guesswork

vague pagoda
#

I know it doesnt

fossil ledge
#

Most math exams I’ve had had formula sheets

vague pagoda
#

but you could also use a calculator

narrow sleet
#

Can I have someone explain how math class are split into different classes. Cuz the maths I had here is a combination of algebra, geometry, trig, stats and some set theory

vague pagoda
#

how is that math at all

#

when the questions are easy

fossil ledge
#

Having a calculator won’t always help you either?

vague pagoda
#

in this case it helped a lot

fossil ledge
#

In a geometry test

worthy root
#

Goat REEEE

vague pagoda
#

you should see what the exams are like here

fossil ledge
#

Where they are testing your geometry skills, not your algebra skills

vague pagoda
#

they are different

#

I mean this for real. High school courses are weird shit and there is 10 of them

worthy root
#

Bakrieid is coming soon. Don't mess with me lol .Goat

trail minnow
#

lol what

fossil ledge
#

What

trail minnow
#

you do 10 classes?

vague pagoda
#

yes

fossil ledge
#

Not at same time Sloth

worthy root
#

10 classes OhNo_cat

trail minnow
#

10 classes ever?

#

wow

worthy root
#

I had only 7 classes a day

#

And 8 when I was in remedial classes

vague pagoda
#

we have "Numbers and sequences", "Polynomial Functions and Equations", "Geometry", "Vectors", "Analytic Geometry", "Differential Calculus", "Trigonometric Functions", "Root and Logarithmic Functions", "Integral Calculus" and "Probability and statistics"
idk what is this and why was there a need to have this many courses

trail minnow
#

oh for math lmao

#

i thought

#

uh

vague pagoda
#

what

trail minnow
#

anyway i can see the point i guess

vague pagoda
#

see

trail minnow
#

is each one half a year or a trimester or something?

vague pagoda
#

lol high school is 3 years here

narrow sleet
#

Are those just classes or topic in a class?

vague pagoda
#

classes

fossil ledge
#

They sound like units

vague pagoda
#

no they arent topics

narrow sleet
#

Yeah

fossil ledge
#

Also you didn’t answer the question cotton

trail minnow
#

how long does each one last?

vague pagoda
#

each one lasts 6 weeks

fossil ledge
#

Wait

trail minnow
#

uh

vague pagoda
#

what question

fossil ledge
#

That’s like a unit lol

trail minnow
#

how does 10 * 6 = 60 weeks get you

#

three years of hs

vague pagoda
#

3 school years

#

u know

#

and idk last year u dont do a lot of math usually

fossil ledge
#

So you do like the same amount of math as everyone in Hs

vague pagoda
#

Ye

#

Except that calc is high school level here

worthy root
#

Even in India

trail minnow
#

how r i g o r o u s is your calc

#

sadly high school calc is often quite bad

vague pagoda
#

can’t judge r i g o r o u s But ok

worthy root
#

In India we go a quite a lot in depth

trail minnow
#

i don't mean what you learn

#

i mean how you learn it

vague pagoda
#

I know what rigorous means

worthy root
#

What does it mean btw ?

fossil ledge
#

You can judge rigorousness

vague pagoda
#

well we learn the epsilon delta proofs n shit

#

but otherwise not really proofy

worthy root
#

,w rigorous

somber coyoteBOT
vague pagoda
#

we go thru calculus in more depth and multivariable calc in 13th course

worthy root
#

Multivariable calc in high school? You kidding me

vague pagoda
#

(yes I said there is 10 but 11-13 are nationwide optional advanced classes)

#

also every school has their own advanced courses or no advanced courses at all

worthy root
#

Out education system assumes everyone has the same capacity .

#

That's really sad

#

😭

vague pagoda
#

the high school I am going to has diffy qs, matrix calc, complex numbers and equations, game theory n shit

#

interesting stuff

#

😍

worthy root
#

n shit
Interesting stuff lol

vague pagoda
#

Lmaoo

#

(many more)

narrow sleet
#

Nice

vague pagoda
#

also a lot of science courses in general

worthy root
#

Since I came to this server I began to feel like we hoomans are really overrated.

trail minnow
#

: o

vague pagoda
#

I like it.

trail minnow
#

those are nice courses

worthy root
#

Wolf's,cats and dogs are better than most of the hooman

#

At math aswell

trail minnow
#

for now i am looking at doing calc I, II, III, lin alg, and set theory stuff

vague pagoda
#

Yeah they are great courses

trail minnow
#

maybe as a junior i will try to get some intro to analysis or intro to abstract algebra

vague pagoda
#

Also self-study course for basics of mathematical analysis

#

(ie. Real analysis in this case)

trail minnow
#

basics of mathematical analysis should hopefully not be real analysis with no intro course before hand

#

if so
