#

@little osprey

little osprey
#

No the ratio

#

the exact ratio

lavish glacier
#

Wjt?

#

Idk what exact ratio is?

little osprey
#

You said you learned exact trig ratios

lavish glacier
#

No

#

I learned teig

#

Tan, cos, and sin

little osprey
#

yeah did you learn 30 60 triangles

lavish glacier
#

Yes

upper karma
#

Yep

little osprey
#

ok

#

so what is tan 60

lavish glacier
#

What kinda number u looking for?

upper karma
#

Just tell him to use the 30 60 90 triangle rule

#

It’s way easier

little osprey
#

one with a square root

lavish glacier
#

But i dont have any other variables

little osprey
#

yes you do

upper karma
#

X/6

#

And then get x by itself

little osprey
#

28-16/2

#

12/2

#

6

upper karma
#

Yep

lavish glacier
#

Ok

upper karma
#

But do you understand how we got 6

little osprey
#

Do you understand the process

lavish glacier
#

6i s what?

little osprey
#

^

#

the adjacent side

#

the base of the triangle

upper karma
#

It’s the length of the triangles

#

Yes

lavish glacier
#

Oh

upper karma
#

@lavish glacier You got it

#

I believe in you

lavish glacier
#

28-16/2
@little osprey

#

Can u explain this?

little osprey
#

so basically

#

you have a rectangle

#

and in a rectangle

#

opposite sides are equal

#

so 28-16

#

would give you the length of the base of the 2 triangles

#

and

#

28-16/2 would give you 1 triangle base

upper karma
#

Very hard to explain through words

little osprey
#

Hope u get it

upper karma
#

Good luck u people

little osprey
#

ok

lavish glacier
#

Ok thx

#

Very much for yalls help@little osprey @upper karma

#

And for the moral support

little osprey
#

No worries

#

I just really hope you understood

upper karma
#

yes

gritty sail
#

can someone help

#

note: this is not like a test q or anything its just an old practice

#

i know how to do it but i keep getting wrong answer. ig ill lay out what i did

#
Consider the top triangle and the first time it hits a square (let this height be h). This triangle is similar to the triangle where it hits the diagonal of the second square.
2/h=(2sqrt(2))/(h+2+sqrt(2))
h=(2+sqrt(2))/(sqrt(2)-1)
h=4+3sqrt(2)

height of the whole triangle --> h+2+2sqrt(2) = 6+5sqrt(2)

Now consider similarity of the triangle with height h and the whole triangle. let the base of the whole triangle be x
(6+5sqrt(2))/x=(4+3sqrt(2))/2
x=2(6+5sqrt(2))/(4+3sqrt(2))

Now find the area
A=1/2 * (2(6+5sqrt(2))/(4+3sqrt(2))) * (6+5sqrt(2)) = (6+5sqrt(2))^2/(4+3sqrt(2)) = (86+60sqrt(2))/(4+3sqrt(2))=3+48sqrt(2)

After subtracting area of squares (2*4=8), you get 48sqrt(2)-5

WHIch is WRONG
upper karma
#

woah there son

gritty sail
#

uh nvm

#

apparently i can't rationalize the denominator

#
not what i said above```
wary bone
#

how call those triangles where circumference = surface area ?

dark sparrow
#

uh what

#

did you mean triangles whose perimeter is equal to their area?

#

because that's a unit-dependent property

#

like idk

#

if your triangle has the same number of meters in its perimeter as square meters in its area

#

it won't be the case anymore if you measure it in feet even though it's the same triangle

#

@wary bone there is no special name for those

wary bone
#

there is... i found it on the weekend but forgot it 😦

#

and yes i mean perimeter

#

there are only 5 that work iirc

#

units can be converted... i just want the numbers. n wait, i wanted the name of thos triangles!

upper karma
#

@wary bone do you mean degenerate triangles

#

so triangles which are a line

wary bone
#

doesn't matter. i think 2 of them were pythagorean.

#

OK i found a working (rectangular) triangle:
a = 5, b = 12, c = 13
Perimeter / Circumference = 30
and Surface Area = 30

just how are they called??

#

(also that works with feet and meters likewise, if Ann is still interested here)

soft gulch
#

Equable shapes my dude

#

@wary bone

wary bone
#

@soft gulch BIG TY 🙂

upper karma
#

Find the surface area of the cube with the cylinder removed

#

is the answer 115.47?

dark sparrow
#

that doesn't look right

#

how'd you get 115.47

upper karma
#

I did 6x6x6

#

o wait

dark sparrow
#

don't use x for multiplication

upper karma
#

666

#

6 . 6. 6*

#

then I found the surface area of the cylinder which is 2 pi 2 * 6 + 2 * pi * 2 squared 100.53 as an answer

#

then i subtracted the prism by the cylinder

#

216 - 100.53 = 115.47

regal shell
#

Subtract the 2 circles from the prism but add the inside

upper karma
#

oh

#

You got it son

#

I believe in you

#

lol

#

190?

#

the answer

#

Hold on son

#

yeah ok

#

Yes

#

190.86

#

U got it

#

oh

#

surface area is that correct?

#

Yep

#

okay thanks

#

👍

#

what does a hemisphere with a closed base mean?

regal shell
#

It’s not hollow

#

Ur talking about surface area, right?

upper karma
#

yea

regal shell
#

Include the circle in ur calculations

dark sparrow
#

it's a hemisphere but the circle at its base counts towards the surface area

upper karma
#

Noice

upper karma
#

Find the surface area of a hemisphere with a closed base, and has a circumference of 26 cm

#

is this 161.53?

#

or 161.38

#

or neither lol

dark sparrow
#

it'd be much better if you gave exact answers rather than decimal approximations ngl
would be a lot easier to check

upper karma
#

161.5369243

#

not sure if it is correct tho?

eternal crag
#

she means in terms of pi

upper karma
#

oh

eternal crag
#

i don't think 161.5369243 is the exact value

upper karma
#

My hw assignment tells me not to put it in terms of pi

#

actually it just doesnt say anything

eternal crag
#

then don't approximate

upper karma
#

im not?

#

Im using my calculator and pluggin in the formula

dark sparrow
#

it'd be nice to see WHAT you're plugging into your calculator as opposed to just the output

upper karma
#

ok

dark sparrow
#

also yeah

#

exact doesn't mean seven decimal places

upper karma
#

what does it mean?

tame ore
dark sparrow
#

exact means exact

upper karma
#

3 * pi * 4.14 squared

dark sparrow
#

no rounding

#

where'd you get 4.14 from

upper karma
#

oh

#

oh I get 4.14 cause I guess and checked until I got the circumference of 26

#

In order for me to get the radisu

#

radius*

dark sparrow
#

you GUESS AND CHECKED????

#

wut

upper karma
#

yea with a claculator

#

calculator*

dark sparrow
#

do you not know the formula relating the circumference and radius of a circle

#

or do you not know how to do algebra

upper karma
#

Probably forgot

dark sparrow
#

C = 2πR
can you isolate R in this formula

upper karma
#

To be honest no idea

dark sparrow
#

bruh

#

no

upper karma
#

I just plug in formulas

dark sparrow
#

alge-bruh

#

oh god.

#

oh god oh no.

upper karma
#

So can you help me?

#

Ann are you actually going to help me or no? simple question

dark sparrow
#

i was away, sorry

#

anyway i'm just kind of upset that you've chosen to go the "mindless plug and chug" route

upper karma
#

It does not really matter to me yet

dark sparrow
#

...

upper karma
#

Online learning for me in math is so bad

dark sparrow
#

i mean ok like... you couldn't even go from $C = 2\pi R$ to $R = \frac{C}{2\pi}$

somber coyoteBOT
upper karma
#

Plus I am pretty sure I got the radius correctly

dark sparrow
#

,calc 26/(2*pi)

somber coyoteBOT
#

Result:

4.1380285203893
dark sparrow
#

you rounded it

upper karma
#

wtf

dark sparrow
#

which probably caused some really unwanted imprecision in your answer for the surface area

upper karma
#

I blame my texas instrument

dark sparrow
#

no

#

you blame the fact that you rounded inappropriately

upper karma
#

you might be right on that

dark sparrow
#

don't round until you've got a formula for your desired quantity in terms of everything you're given directly

upper karma
#

damn it

dark sparrow
#

yes, you will have to do some algebra

#

you can no longer get away with mindlessly throwing numbers into formulas

upper karma
#

my hw is multiple choice which is kind of why I got confused

#

I guess your right

stark breach
#

Hello

#

How can I calculate the remaining angles?

upper karma
#

Which angles are you given?

#

do angles 1-18 have the same angle?

#

also, are rulers expensive where you live?

#

because you can use the side of a book or a copybook, you know

#

inscribed angle theorem

outer ravine
dark sparrow
#

x^2 + y^2 = 1

outer ravine
#

Ok I kinda figured it out after looking at math open reference

finite fractal
#

help

outer ravine
#

@finite fractal no clue of this is right but I tried m8

#

just do line tan or cos or sin or somethin

finite fractal
#

yeah i did that its apparently wrong

outer ravine
#

really?

finite fractal
#

wait 1 sec

#

yeah

outer ravine
#

oooh im retarded

#

1 sec

civic jolt
#

How

#

Y does
x approaches 1 negative = 0?

harsh lintel
#

0k isnt it just cos inverse of 8.6/11.9? or is that the wrong answer as well

finite fractal
#

yeah no

#

the answer was apparently 67

#

lol

harsh lintel
#

67 + 2

outer ravine
#

well you couldn't do my thing because if you just take a point from a random section in the triangle and angle length of that hypotenuse is different

harsh lintel
#

true true

supple onyx
#

we solved it in #help-2 it's all good

outer ravine
#

😦 I wanted to solve it

civic jolt
#

A little help with mine pwease

upper karma
#

@civic jolt JustAsk

civic jolt
#

Up there

#

Y is x approaches 1 negative = 0 ?

upper karma
#

Well do you know of limits when x approaches by a side?

civic jolt
#

?

upper karma
#

Basically $\lim_{x\to{1^{-}}}{f(x)}$ means the limit when f(x) approaches x from the LEFT side

somber coyoteBOT
civic jolt
#

Oww

upper karma
#

And $\lim_{x\to{1^{+}}}{f(x)}$ means the limit when f(x) approaches x from the RIGHT side

somber coyoteBOT
upper karma
#

So now look at the function

civic jolt
#

Alright

upper karma
#

Point with your finger at x=1 ON the function

civic jolt
#

Ok

upper karma
#

Whoops

#

Well yeah it isnt continuous

hot trail
#

can i ask questions here?

#

or should i ask in the questions thing

#

sorry, you're in the middle of something

#

finish what you are doing

upper karma
#

Now notice that when we move the finger a very little bit to the right side, it is y=1

civic jolt
#

My finger is on x=1

#

Can't go vertical, right?

upper karma
#

Uh lemme think of a way of explaining this verbally

#

Ok now i think i have it

#

Limits is an important concept so you gotta understand this well

#

Now

#

Remember what i said and remember the definition of a limit

#

Basically $\lim_{x\to{1^{-}}}{f(x)}$ means the limit when f(x) approaches x from the LEFT side

somber coyoteBOT
civic jolt
#

Yes

upper karma
#

Where the function from the left side of x=1 is at

civic jolt
#

0

upper karma
#

Its not at y=1

#

Good job

#

Thats it

#

Its like thinking of a very close value for f(x) without touching x=1

#

For example f(1.99999999)

#

Which is f(1.999999)=0

civic jolt
#

So isn't x-> 1 positive = 2?

upper karma
#

No, look again. What would be the value of f(2.00000001)

#

Or from the other way of looking it, move the finger a VERY little to the right

civic jolt
#

Approaches from the right side to 1

upper karma
#

Yeah its 1

civic jolt
#

Not 2?

upper karma
#

No

#

You can test it yourself

#

Or from the other way of looking it, move the finger a VERY little to the right
@upper karma .

civic jolt
#

It doesn't touch 2

upper karma
#

Where is your point after doing this? At y=1

civic jolt
#

Wait

#

I hv to follow the graph?

upper karma
#

The function on the graph, yeah

#

Not the x-axis

#

Probably what you were doing

civic jolt
upper karma
#

Uh those 2 lines aren't graphs

#

Are parts of the function

#

The graph is the whole thing

#

The function is basically, "the lines that are drawn"

civic jolt
#

The given graph is
f(x)=[x]

upper karma
#

You should reread all i said, bc i wont keep repeating myself

#

Saying the function won't really help if you wanna locate it graphically

civic jolt
#

I know x-> 1 negative means that it's approaching from the left side and x-> 1 positive means that it's approaching from the right side

upper karma
#

Good

civic jolt
#

But what I don't get is y can y=1

#

Because isn't the finger always on the x=1

upper karma
#

You do understand that $\lim_{x\to{1^{-}}}{f(x)}=0$?

somber coyoteBOT
civic jolt
#

No

#

Wait

#

Yes

#

I don't understand the x->1 positive=1

upper karma
#

Aight what is f(2.000001)=?

civic jolt
#

2?

upper karma
#

No, you should give the y at that point of x

#

f(whatever value)=y

#

f(x)=y

civic jolt
#

2

#

2 approach from the right is 1

upper karma
#

2 approach from the right is 1
@civic jolt yeah

#

(As an example)

#

Do you understand it now?

civic jolt
#

f(x)=1

upper karma
#

Its taking values of x very close to 1, from the right, but without being 1

#

Wait im tripping

#

I mean f(1.0000001)=1 SORRY

civic jolt
#

So it's y=1

upper karma
#

Yeah

#

My bad

#

So as a summary

civic jolt
#

But x=1

upper karma
#

$\lim_{x\to{1^{-}}}{f(x)}=0$ and $\lim_{x\to{1^{+}}}{f(x)}=1$ because look, we take values of X, close to 1, from the right like 1.0001. Do f(1.00001)=?, we can put into the function f(x)=[x] or look at the graph and think when we move the finger from point (1, 1) a VERY LITTLE to the right, y is ....? We notice that its y=1 after moving

civic jolt
#

1<y<2

#

f(2.00001)=2

upper karma
#

Shoot

#

Wait

somber coyoteBOT
upper karma
#

Now

#

f(x)=y

#

f(1.00001)=?

civic jolt
#

1

upper karma
#

Thats it

civic jolt
#

So WHATEVER I do
Y=/ 2

upper karma
#

You gotta look at values of x, very close of 1, from the right WITHOUT BEING 1

#

So WHATEVER I do
Y=/ 2
@civic jolt ?

civic jolt
#

Y is nvr 2

#

If x=1

upper karma
#

Obviously

#

Bc the function isnt like that

civic jolt
#

:nervous_laugh: isn't obvious to me...
:sweats_profusely:

upper karma
#

You dont see that there is no point at all of the function at x=1, where y=2?!

#

On point (1, 2) there is literally nothing

#

Its blank

civic jolt
#

I know it's blank

upper karma
#

Then the function doesnt exist at x=1 y=2

#

Neither does the limit

civic jolt
#

Is it like this for every graph?

upper karma
#

No

#

Each graph has its different form and shape

#

It can exist or not

civic jolt
#

Aight

#

Lemme try the following questions

upper karma
#

Ok tag me help is needed

civic jolt
#

Ok

#

Y is this discontinuous at x=1?

#

@upper karma

#

I've already simplified it to x-1
Where x=1

upper karma
#

dont simplify it tho

#

the domain of a fraction, is when the denominator = 0

#

x-1=0 and x=1

#

so x=1 isnt continuous

civic jolt
#

How?

upper karma
#

the domain of any fraction doesn't exist when the denominator = 0
SO WE ARE GONNA LOOK at when the denominator equals 0. We set up the denominator to 0, x-1=0 and x=1
so x=1 isnt continuous

civic jolt
#

What is meant by "the domain of any fraction"?

upper karma
#

you haven't heard of the domain?

civic jolt
#

I may hv forgotten the name

upper karma
#

wait lemme search a better definition

silent plank
#

the domain of any fraction, is when the denominator = 0
didn't make sense

upper karma
#

oh whoops

#

the domain of any fraction doesnt exist when the denominator = 0

#

the domain or set of departure of a function is the set into which all of the input of the function is constrained to fall. It is the set X in the notation f: X → Y. @civic jolt

civic jolt
#

f: X->Y

#

I think I get it

upper karma
#

good

finite fractal
#

is this open

#

i need help with simple trig again

upper karma
#

post it

civic jolt
#

How do u prove that it is discontinuous by doing
lim f(x)=f(a)
x->a

finite fractal
#

pls explain how this is fucking 33.

civic jolt
#

It's 33.213 haha

finite fractal
#

how GWnonexUmaruCry

#

eaxplien

civic jolt
#

Ow shit...
I can do this but I can't even solve my own...

upper karma
#

How do u prove that it is discontinuous by doing
lim f(x)=f(a)
x->a
@civic jolt it is continuous at that point iff: the limit at that point, the limit at that point from the left side, the limit at that point from the right side and f(that point) are all equal

civic jolt
#

I see

upper karma
#

as you can see, f(1) doesnt exist

#

but you should first check for the domain first than everything else

#

always

civic jolt
#

Yes
Because 1 does not =0

finite fractal
#

KAI HALP

civic jolt
#

Did u get 5.94 for the height of the pyramid?

finite fractal
#

was i meant to get the height GWnonMuugu

silent plank
#

height isn't needed

civic jolt
#

I used tan to get the ans haha
Das y

#

Ok

#

Without height

silent plank
#

did you determine the length of the diagonal of the base square (or length from vertex to center)?

civic jolt
#

What do u hv?

finite fractal
#

isnt AE just 5.5/2?

#

:')

civic jolt
#

No

#

U hv to do the Pythagorean theorem

finite fractal
#

you

#

fucking

#

genius

civic jolt
#

Wdym

#

My sch already drilled this into my head

finite fractal
#

ok thank u

#

im peanut brain

civic jolt
#

So m I

finite fractal
#

shhh

civic jolt
#

Shhh

finite fractal
#

after u do pythag

civic jolt
#

U got 33?

finite fractal
#

u divide by 2 yes?

civic jolt
#

Yes

finite fractal
#

ok thank u

civic jolt
#

Wait

#

Yes

finite fractal
#

uh

#

oke

silent plank
#

depends how you're applying it

finite fractal
#

:>

civic jolt
#

We're counting the base first

finite fractal
#

im doing a differnt one now

#

cuz i got that one wrong

#

so its reset

civic jolt
#

Ish...

finite fractal
#

but i get the process now

civic jolt
#

Ouch

silent plank
#

i.e. whether you're using a big triangle to get the long diagonal
or applying it to the small triangle to get the length you need directly

finite fractal
#

xd

civic jolt
#

Yesh!

silent plank
#

pythag isn't actually needed since you can just use trig

civic jolt
#

trig?

silent plank
#

trignometry

finite fractal
#

:> what is this big brain sayin

civic jolt
#

What formula does it involve?

#

I m rly, rly, rly BAD with names

silent plank
#

from properties of a square and right isosceles triangles
AE=BE=CE=DE = 5.5cm/sqrt(2)

civic jolt
#

Op
Idk dat

upper karma
#

Yes
Because 1 does not =0
@civic jolt thonkzoom

civic jolt
#

If I determine the value of f(a)

upper karma
#

x=1 is the only value of x that makes the denominator = 0, which is indetermined

#

If I determine the value of f(a)
@civic jolt wdym

silent plank
#

alternatively,
BD =AC = 5.5cm * sqrt(2)
AE = AC/2 = 5.5cm * sqrt(2)/2 (= 5.5cm/sqrt(2))
and then apply the appropriate trig ratio

civic jolt
#

sub x=1

#

Which will result in f(x)=0

upper karma
#

you wanna find f(1)?

civic jolt
#

No

#

I just wan to prove

upper karma
#

when the denominator x=1, the denominator = 0, BUT NOT THE FUNCTION

civic jolt
#

Y is it
x, 0, -x
?

#

Yes I get what u mean

upper karma
#

any fraction when the denominator = 0, is indetermined

#

ok

#

lemme see

civic jolt
#

Thanky

upper karma
#

are you asking if the answer in blue is correct?

civic jolt
#

No

upper karma
#

then what are you asking

civic jolt
#

How do u get the highlighted ans

upper karma
#

welp you can't if they just give you the drawing, with no values

#

if thats what you are asking

harsh lintel
#

omg bruh i literally just learnt what { meant today but i forgot

civic jolt
#

Welp
I've lived 11 yrs through unclear instructions...

regal shell
#

That’s a piecewise function

civic jolt
#

?

upper karma
#

welp you can't if they just give you the drawing, with no values
@upper karma .

civic jolt
#

Yeah

#

Welp
I've lived 11 yrs through unclear instructions...
@civic jolt
N I'm still alive...

regal shell
#

The question says the graph is abs(x)

upper karma
#

do you mean if you are given f(x)=|x|

regal shell
#

So you know the values of the graph still

civic jolt
#
  • & - yeah
regal shell
#

The graph shows a visualization of where to split up the piecewise function

upper karma
#

i dont understand what your question is, when you have specified tag me

civic jolt
#

I winged that question already
Hope it's correct

#

Doing a new one now with no graphs given

regal shell
#

What’s the function

upper karma
#

post it literally

civic jolt
#

Just this.

#

Question (3)

upper karma
#

what are you asked

obsidian ravine
#

do you have to graph it?

civic jolt
#

No

#
If a certain limit does not exist, write "does not exist".```

That's the question
upper karma
#

do. the. domain

civic jolt
#

-1-[(2)/(x-1)]

#

1

#

-1

upper karma
#

what on earth is that

civic jolt
#

Domain

upper karma
#

the domain of the previous function was all real numbers except x=1

obsidian ravine
#

lol

upper karma
#

because x=1 made the denominator = 0

obsidian ravine
#

it cant be 1 or -1 lol

#

yh

#

what he said

upper karma
#

-1 can be tho, it'd make the denominator = 2

obsidian ravine
#

ah forgive

civic jolt
#

The range?

obsidian ravine
#

sorry bout that hahaha

upper karma
#

the domain of the previous function was all real numbers except x=1
@civic jolt

obsidian ravine
#

im an idiot

upper karma
#

no worries lol

obsidian ravine
#

didn't see the modulus lol

upper karma
#

The range?
@civic jolt the range is for y values

#

instead for x values

civic jolt
#

The first impression of domain I got was the "set of all inputs"

upper karma
#

Is the domain here?
@civic jolt as you can see at the right side, the function isn't expressed on x=1

civic jolt
#

The ones in the brackets?

upper karma
#

it is on 1<x and on 0<x<1 but not on x=1

#

yeah those on brackets

civic jolt
#

Isn't that the range for x?

upper karma
#

what, idk about the english specific terms tbh

#

not native

white cradle
#

it's a piece wise function

#

defined over different values of x

#

the set of all the values of x mentioned in the function definition, is its domain

obsidian ravine
#

flynnxd how are you not a helper yet hahaha

#

you're very helpful that's for sure

white cradle
#

oh it's a choice, you can get the helper role, but I'd get pinged everytime

obsidian ravine
#

ahhhh

#

i didn't know that

white cradle
#

thanks for the vouch though :p

upper karma
#

yeah

#

sometimes good sometimes overwhelming

obsidian ravine
#

i wouldn't want to be pinged all the time hahah

civic jolt
#

So...

upper karma
#

but its fun to help to ppl

obsidian ravine
#

i just help when i feel like it

white cradle
#

yeah plus it'd be stuff I can't help with sometimes too

civic jolt
#

x range is the domain?

white cradle
#

Ohno don't do that

#

don't use both terms together like that

#

range is associated with the values that y can take

civic jolt
#

Yes

white cradle
#

domain is the values that x can take

civic jolt
#

Ehh

white cradle
#

here you see function is defined for
x<0
0<x<1
x>1

upper karma
#

Yes
@civic jolt have you really understand it now while i have repeated that a bunch of times?

civic jolt
#

So the domain is a subsitute for x

#

"range" haha...
:sweats:

civic jolt
graceful narwhal
#

adding a 0

#

try adding 1 + x - 1 - x to the nom

#

then simplify the fraction

civic jolt
#

Simplify the denominator first?

#

(1+2x+x^2) / 1-x^2

graceful narwhal
#

the denom was just turned around you can do this by multiplying the denom with -1

civic jolt
#

(1+2x+x^2) / 1-x^2
@civic jolt
Like this?

upper karma
#

idk this

#

tag me if u can help pls

harsh lintel
#

@civic jolt so

  1. multiply 2/(x-1) by -1
  2. multiply -1/1 by (1-x)
  3. add the numerators
  4. simplify
#

@upper karma it would be D im pretty sure because the perpendicular restriction rules out A and C, and the congruent restriction rules out B

upper karma
#

how does it rule out b

silent plank
#

it doesn't

upper karma
#

so kite works right? because every rhimbus is a kite

harsh lintel
#

oh lol true i just looked up the definition im small brain

#

the question asks for the most restrictive class though so idk

silent plank
#

you can only conclude that it is a kite from that info

#

wait

#

yeh

harsh lintel
#

although e would always be a valid answer

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

upper karma
#

ok kite

stark breach
#

Which angles are you given?
@upper karma None of them, that's the funny part

#

also, are rulers expensive where you live?
@upper karma Haha, funny xd
It should be done just by calculation, not by a ruler

#

Already calculated it

obsidian ravine
#

work out all the other angles first

#

yes

upper karma
#

what makes you think it's 80?

soft gulch
#

@vital plank १०० है

upper karma
soft gulch
#

It's a triangle

#

40+40+N=180

upper karma
#

but then n would be 100

soft gulch
#

Exactly

upper karma
#

also, what makes you think angle CDE is the same as angle CED?

soft gulch
#

Radius

#

It's an isosceles triangle

#

x=m

#

Since you dont know the theorem

#

Those two triangles are congruent

upper karma
#

you don't know that

soft gulch
#

I can deduce such

upper karma
#

how about now?

soft gulch
#

Oof

upper karma
#

is "x = m" now?

soft gulch
#

CE=CD

upper karma
#

same radius, same thing

soft gulch
#

Yes

upper karma
#

CP = CE

#

@vital plank yes

soft gulch
#

@upper karma so?

#

What do you want to say?

upper karma
soft gulch
#

What?

upper karma
#

hint: ||vertical angles||

soft gulch
#

Yeah

#

You were refuting me

upper karma
#

@vital plank well?

soft gulch
#

Dspider you are circumventing the method

#

It's three steps max

upper karma
#

good

#

which means arc BE = ?

soft gulch
#

No it's 100

upper karma
#

@vital plank ?

#

well?

soft gulch
#

God you are confusing him ahaha

#

@vital plank are you familiar with arcs?

upper karma
soft gulch
#

Each arc corresponds to an angle

#

@vital plank no

upper karma
soft gulch
#

ARC BC will directly correspond to angle BCE

#

As c is the center

#

If the the vertex is touching the circumference

upper karma
#

arc BC?

soft gulch
#

Be

supple onyx
#

Bc is not an arc

soft gulch
#

Typo

#

If the the vertex is touching the circumference
@soft gulch then the angle would be half the direct correspondence

upper karma
#

@vital plank so if arc BE = 80 degrees, angle m = ?

#

yep

soft gulch
#

Btw

#

N=100

light star
#

can someone help me figure out how to solve the missing sides & angles

regal shell
#

Use law of sines for angle b

#

Then get angle c by doing 180 - b - a

light star
#

ohh right, i literally wrote it down then forgot

regal shell
#

And u can do law of sines or law of cosines for the last side

light star
#

quick question: why do you to have sin(-1) after you fin the result of a law of sines equation

regal shell
#

?

light star
#

see at the end it says to do "inverse sine" with a -1 exponent

umbral snow
#

So you have
sin(B) = 0.7614

But you don't want sin(B), you just want B

#

So in order to take the sin off, you have to inverse sin both sides

light star
#

thanks that makes sense

light star
#

arent you supposed to multiply the entire equation on the right side by 20.25? he only did it to the numerator

umbral snow
#

Multiply both sides by 20.5

light star
#

but why did he only multiply the numerator by 20.25

umbral snow
#

$\frac{\sin(C)}{20.25}20.5 = \frac{\sin(29)}{12.8}20.5$

#

That's me multiplying both sides by 20.5

#

Maybe I should TeX that haha. 1 sec

light star
#

ok, if it becomes (sin(29)/12.8)20.5, then wouldnt the product of that equal: sin(29) * 20.25 / 12.8 *20.25 because its in one bracket

somber coyoteBOT
umbral snow
#

Okay haha. THAT'S after the multiplication by 20.5. That's a legal move.

#

Now, I hope you can see that, on the left, the 20.5 just cancels

light star
#

yea that I get

umbral snow
#

Therein why we did it in the first place

#

On the right, you can put the 20.5 onto the numerator. That's the same thing.

#

$\frac{20.5}{12.8}\sin(29)$

somber coyoteBOT
umbral snow
#

That's a legal answer too. It even looks pretty!

light star
#

the thing is i would accept that, but I did another question by multiplying the right side's numerator and denominator and I got the right answer

#

this is what I did with another question, on step 3, i mulitplied the left side by 3

#

but on this question if i did that, according the teacher, i would get a wrong answer

umbral snow
#

And you did, lol

light star
#

yea lol i know but why did it work for that equation and not this one

umbral snow
#

,w 3sin(50 degrees)/2.5

somber coyoteBOT
umbral snow
#

It didn't, you got the wrong answer

light star
#

wait what

umbral snow
#

There's a cheaty way to think of this:
If something is in the denominator, it can be moved to the numerator of the other side.

Likewise, if something is in the numerator, it can be moved to the denominator of the other side

light star
#

how??? if you do sin-1(0.3053), you get 17, which is the answer for angle B in this triangle:

#

so i got the wrong answer in the equation but the right answer for the angle?

umbral snow
#

I don't know what info you started with

#

I'm going to guess that you accidentally used your answer to get the other answers, and thus constructed a working triangle, but the incorrect one.

light star
umbral snow
#

,calc sin(50 degrees)/2.5

#

light star
#

oh i get this now, i remember how a number as a whole is a fraction so 3 would be 3/1

umbral snow
#

Huh, grats it does obey the sin law everywhere

light star
#

the previous answer?

umbral snow
#

Your triangle

light star
#

i only figured out the 17 part so far but i guess that wouldve let to other parts too

#

wow i dont how i missed this

#

its because theres two possible answers

#

thats literally what the lesson was about and it went over my head

#

thats why i got 0.3053 and the robot said 0.9

#

i got triangle 1s answer, robot got triangles 2s answer

#

thanks for your help

onyx nova
#

Hello i neeed help can someone help me

eternal crag
#

Maybe

upper karma
#

@onyx nova Yes

#

We are here for you

#

Just send in chat

light star
#

i cant figure out how to do C)

#

i tried doing solving the big triangle first but got the wrong values

regal shell
#

Use law of sines to find the top angle of the combined triangle

#

U have the 25 10.5 degree pair so use that to complete the 66 pair

#

Then use 180 degrees in a triangle to find angle y

#

@light star

#

Since the medium triangle is isosceles, the angle next to angle x is equal to angle y

#

Since they make a 180 degree angle together, angle x is equal to 180 minus angle y

light star
#

yea i did the first 3 steps, but i got the wrong answer

#

text book said Y was equal to 18 degrees, I got 28(steps shown in the other pic)

regal shell
#

Ur abc is wrong

#

Angle a isn’t paired with side 66

#

Angle b is paired with 66

light star
#

wouldnt it be the same if I did the same equation but B and C instead of A and B?

#

sin B / 66 = sin 10.5 / 25

regal shell
#

Well the top angle isn’t y tho

#

After you find the top angle, you still need to find y

light star
#

then i get 180 - 28.68 - 10.5 = 140.82 which is impossible, how can angle Y which is clearly acute be obtuse

regal shell
#

The calculator will show 28 because the angle is 90+28

#

@light star

#

The top angle is 118

light star
#

where did you get 90 from

regal shell
#

That’s how calculators work

#

This is an ssa triangle, the special case

light star
#

i remember hearing about something like that from my teacher

regal shell
#

Calculators can’t produce angle values higher than 90

#

When using sin

light star
#

but if its 118, then angle y is: 180 - 118 - 10.5 = 51.5

#

right?

#

yea but didnt you say its 118, not 110?

regal shell
#

Idk nvm my brain is on the fritz lmao

#

Yeah 51.5

light star
#

but the textbook says y is 18 degrees 😦

regal shell
#

Probs a mistake in calculations I’ll go over them again

#

Oh wait I see problem

#

When dealing with ssa triangle, it’s either the given angle or 180-the angle

#

Since using sin rule gets us 28, we do 180-28 which equals 152

#

And 152 fits and gets 18 as the right answer

#

Sorry it took me a while haven’t done this or any math in a while lmao

#

@light star

light star
#

where does 152 fit

upper karma
#

Rip

anyone know how to solve this? I figured out C I think, but got stuck trying to find A and B

wooden current
#

Do you know Circle Theorems? It should be pretty easy to find a and b, and with the values of a and b you can compute c. I don't know how you found c though.

oak shale
#

Ill check out the circle theorems right now, thanks

upper karma
#

c is kinda long

wooden current
upper karma
#

the process of c is: knowing a and b, get the third angle value of that triangle by the sum of angle's theorem. And as they are both angles congruent, it should be the value for c

#

well not really long lol

#

but yeah

#

@oak shale

#

@oak shale how did you found c?

#

the process of c is: knowing a and b, get the third angle value of that triangle by the sum of angle's theorem. And as they are both angles congruent, it should be the value for c
@upper karma .

oak shale
#

idk i usually use some really flawed math and i think i thought that the angle next to C was 42

#

so ijust did 180-42 = 138

#

idk if its correct tho

upper karma
#

,w 21+42+c=180

somber coyoteBOT
upper karma
#

c is 117

#

@oak shale look at my comment

#

the process of c is: knowing a and b, get the third angle value of that triangle by the sum of angle's theorem. And as they are both angles congruent, it should be the value for c
@upper karma .

oak shale
#

ohhhhhhhh

#

I see

upper karma
#

all of the angles from a triangle need to add up to 180

#

good job repeting what i said xD

"triangle angle sum theorem"

which is basically that

Wrong chat

#

lol it's ok

upper karma
#

Can u help me with probability?

wooden current
#

Probability is not my strong suit, sorry.

pearl lava
#

When you rotate a square, does the orientation of the figure stay the same?

upper karma
#

what?

#

no

#

it's now oriented to the right (or to the left)

#

you meant "shape", right?

#

not "figure"

pearl lava
#

this is the problem

#

idk the orientation of figure

#

I only know the corresponding

upper karma
#

this is more of a philosophical question

#

"if you rotate a circle does it really change its orientation?"

#

but I mean, if you rotate any shape, it does change its orientation

#

if you rotate a square that was "pointing" up, by 90 degrees to the right (clockwise), it's now "pointing" right

#

you can tell by the corners of the square

pearl lava
#

Do the orientation of the vertices change in a rotation?

upper karma
#

🤔

#

this guy says nah

#

and your question has a negative in there, so then its "true"

#

"true" as in "that's right, the orientation of the figure does not change"

pearl lava
#

So a square would be an exception?

lavish umbra
#

Aight I need some help

#

very strange problem

#

I can do everything besides the last condition

but let's see

lavish umbra
#

Its in my geometry book =/ sorry

#

Pretty stumped on this one

upper karma
#

🐣

lavish umbra
wooden current
#

wait oops nevermind i didnt read the first part

#

so for the first digit we can have { 2, 2, 3, 3, 5 } = 5 options. For the second digit 5-1 = 4 options. For the third 4-1+2 = 5 options. For the fourth 4 options, fifth 3 options, 6th 2 options and for the 7th 1 option. So the number of possibilities is 5 x 4 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 = 2400. So the probability is 1/2400.

#

@lavish umbra

lavish umbra
#

Alright this seems to be good, thanks!

#

I think I get it now lol

wooden current

No problem !

@lavish umbra Wait can you use the digits more than once?

True or false: if sinA is positive, then sin A/2 is positive as well.

#

idk how to solve this

I tried indicating the range

#

using A = 90 for example

#

I solve for sin A/2 and it's always positive

draw it on a unit circle

how?

do you know where 90 deg is on the unit circle?

#

sory

#

I was working on the problem

#

@upper karma ok I'm trrying to understand it

upper karma
wooden current
#

@molten holly Idk why "smaller" segment. But the area of a segment is basically area of sector - area of the triangle determined by the radii. Since the angle is 60 degrees, the area of the triangle is $r^2\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} $ ( properties of equilateral triangles ). The area of the sector is just that formula with angle = 60 degrees.

somber coyoteBOT
viscid ginkgo
#

I tried sin 120/2 but it's positive

#

sin 60/2 is 1/2

upper karma
#

yep

viscid ginkgo
#

why did you write 12?

upper karma
#

it was meant for @molten holly

viscid ginkgo
#

lmao

upper karma
#

but for your problem, do you see the area marked in blue?

#

this entire half is 180 deg

#

if you split it in half, 90 degrees is pointing straight up

#

so do you see where the green "sin" line would end up?

#

straight up

oak shale
#

x^2+y^2+6x-24=8y

how would I convert this into a standard equation of a circle?

viscid ginkgo
#

uh

upper karma
#

@viscid ginkgo and since it ranges from zero to "whatever the radius is"

#

let's say... 12

#

from 0 to 12

#

but it can be any number

#

on the unit circle it's usually 1

viscid ginkgo
#

damn, it really has been a while since I did equation of a circle...

upper karma
#

the radius is 1

viscid ginkgo
#

let me tryu

upper karma
#

anyway, A/2 will always be positive

viscid ginkgo
#

it has to be false though

#

that if sinA is positive, sin A/2 is.

upper karma
#

yep

#

True or false: if sinA is positive, then sin A/2 is positive as well.
@viscid ginkgo

#

it's "true"

viscid ginkgo
#

book says false

#

maybe the book is wrong rofl

#

(x² + 6x) + (y² - 8y) = 24

wooden current
#

^

#

@oak shale the standard form of the equation of a circle is (x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r. It's just basically completing the square in terms of x and y.

slate bay
#

book says false
It's false. A = 361 degrees is a counter.

upper karma
#

361 degrees = 1 degree

viscid ginkgo
#

361 huh? that's interesting

upper karma
#

same spot

slate bay
#

Does A have a domain restriction?

viscid ginkgo
#

no

slate bay
#

361 degrees = 1 degree
Sure, but 361/2 degrees does not coinicide with 0.5 degrees, right?

upper karma
#

it does, yes

slate bay
#

Wait, really?

upper karma
#

360 = full rotation

#

means you end up in the same spot

wooden current
#

but the condition was sin A is positive. why choose A > 180

upper karma
#

doesn't matter

#

,w sin(181)

somber coyoteBOT
slate bay
#

@wooden current sin(361 deg) > 0

upper karma
#

sin(361) = sin(1)

wooden current
#

yea sin(A+2pi*n) = sinA

#

for n integer

slate bay
#

Yes, I agree with sin(361 deg) = sin(1 deg).

viscid ginkgo
#

(x+3)² + (y - 4)² = 24

slate bay
#

Wait...

#

Is the statement sin(A) positive implies sin(A/2) positive, or sin(A) positive implies sin(A)/2 positive?

wooden current
#

first i think

slate bay
#

I interpreted it as the former, yeah.

viscid ginkgo
#

"If sin A is positive, then sin A/2 is positive as well."

#

sin(A/2) ofc

slate bay
#

Red HerringToday at 4:37 PM

361 degrees = 1 degree
Sure, but 361/2 degrees does not coinicide with 0.5 degrees, right?

DSpiderToday at 4:37 PM
it does, yes
Ok, clarification needed.

wooden current
#

where are the parantheses

slate bay
#

It does coincide?

#

361/2 degrees coincides with 0.5 degrees?

viscid ginkgo
#

sorry

slate bay
#

Or it does as in it doesn't coincide?

viscid ginkgo
#

I thought it was obvious because of half angle etc

wooden current
#

it's ok

viscid ginkgo
#

it seems sin (361/2) = +?

wooden current
#

maybe you can use the fact that sin(A/2) = $\pm\sqrt{\frac{1-cosA}{2}}$

slate bay
#

361/2 degrees = 180.5 degrees, which does not coincide with 0.5 degrees is my reasoning.

somber coyoteBOT
wooden current
#

?

viscid ginkgo
#

yes I got a positive answer for 361

slate bay
#

it seems sin (361/2) = +?
No, it's negative, because 361/2 degrees is 180.5 degrees is below the x-axis.

#

Right?

upper karma
#

,w sin(180.5) = sin(0.5) in degrees

viscid ginkgo
#

hmm

#

I get a positive answer on my calc. I think what I have to do

#

is apply a negative?

#

but if it's in Q1

#

then it's positive?

slate bay
wooden current
#

wait

viscid ginkgo
#

so is everyone else as confused as I am?

slate bay
#

I'm confused with what the problem with my counterexample would be.

viscid ginkgo
#

well I did the calculation with sin A/2

#

sin 361/2 = positive

upper karma
viscid ginkgo
#

hmm 361 = 180.5
