Have you learned trigonometric ratios yet?
Im pretty sure yes
I might have missed it tho when my teacher was talking about it
You have two angles and a side in the right triangle from the furthest deer to the top of the hill, then straight down.
lol sorry, just finished an exam and I’m trying to eat while explaining, so I am not as my desk atm to draw it out.
Haha no problem im just thankful your explaining it at all
But you have the adjacent side and the angle to use cosine.
For the hypotenuse to the furthest deer.
so use the adjacent side and the angle with cosine to figure out the hypotenuse of the furthest deer? Which would give me 46.6?
acos(35/51)?
Ah. Give me a sec again.
Okay np
You want to use the cosine of this theta.
So cos(theta) = 51/y
And you solve for y.
Theta?
Theta just means the angle you are using. In this case, it is 55 degrees since you subtract the angle of depression from 90 degrees.
Since we drew that imaginary perpendicular line from the top of the hill straight down.
Ah okay so id do cos 55= 51/y?
Okay I kinda understand but im still confused on how to get y somehow idk why tho
That part is just algebra. Multiply both sides by y.
So now: y cos(55) = 51
Then divide both sides by cos(55).
So: y = 51/cos(55)
I got y = 88.91
Yeah. I made a mistake earlier when I was explaining. That is just your hypotenuse for that triangle.
But you have two sides of that larger triangle now, so you can use Pythagorean Theorem to solve for that last side.
Okay I got 72.83 for the last side
Yep.
Sorry I'm really bad at understanding stuff what would I do now to try and get x ?
So now you have a strategy to find x.
x + z = 72.83
You find z by applying the steps we did in the first triangle to the new one.
I feel bad for making you explain this all but what are the steps before didnt we do like cos 55=51/y?
Ignore the marker bleeding through.
Your hypotenuse is y.
No relation to what we solved for earlier.
Cos(43°)=51/88.19?
Yeah, my bad…I should have used a different variable.
This y is not the y we solved for earlier.
Think of it as a new variable.
Ohhh
Like a.
Okay so then I just multiple a on both sides then a cos(43°)= 51 a?
Not quite.
When you multiply 51/a by a, the a’s cancel out.
But the a shows up on the other side.
a cos(43) = 51
So to isolate a, you divide both sides by cos(43).
Giving you: a = 51/cos(43)
So a=69.73?
Yes!
So now you have two sides of the triangle.
Use Pythagorean Theorem to get z, the last leg.
So then z would be 47.55?
Yes!
So then the distance between the deer is 25.28?
Yep!
Yaya
😃
Ay thanks so much
Glad to help.
ty man ❤️
how do i even solve this? my teacher just slapped these problems on me but i dont know how the heck i should do to solve this vector thing.
Just draw
And from there you can also work on seeing how to solve without drawing aswell using algebra and some geometry
Recall how vector addition works purely by drawing
7,0
So I have done the math I just dont know if the x should be on the opposite or adjacent
<@&286206848099549185>
The elevation angle is always created between the hypotenuse and the "shadow" of the hypotenuse on the ground, such as in the diagram.
In this case, you are being asked about how far Linus (the black circle) is from the point directly below the kite, which is the point where the right angle is.
This distance would be the golden side.
Since that side is one of the sides near the angle, then it would be the adjacent side, not the opposite.
Okay thank you so much
566766992180298, normally, you should be told which is the leg with respect to the angle, but in this case, since it's an isosceles right triangle, it doesn't matter.
Are you familiar with how to use sine / cosine / tan in this case to find the measure of the side?
Moreover, are you familiar with sine / cosine / tan values of common angles?
Here's a diagram to help.
can someone help me with this? (find the area of triangle ABC)
In this specific case, after drawing the diagram, you can see that you're given two sides, as well as the angle between them.
Are you familiar with the formula:
S = a · b · sin (C) / 2
for the area of a triangle given those pieces of data?
I only know 45-45-90, I’m not sure what sin cosine and tan is
These are ratios between sides in a right-angled triangle.
The sine is the ratio between the opposite side to a specific acute angle and the hypotenuse.
The cosine is the ratio between the adjacent side to a specific acute angle and the hypotenuse.
The tangent is the ratio between the opposite side to a specific acute angle and the adjacent side to the same angle.
Im starting to understand, so in this problem it’s adjacent over hypotenuse
Exactly. 👍
One more thing to note is that if you get one of these common angles, you may be expected to use these values as opposed to simply multiplying / dividing by sin (angle), cos (angle) or tan (angle) on a calculator.
The angles at the bottom of the top row are measured in degrees, as in the question you've shown.
The top row is in radians, which is another measurement of angles that you may encounter later on.
sorry! but yes i am familiar with that formula
@twilit zenith thank you so I have to follow a formula
sorry! but yes i am familiar with that formula
In that case, since these are the exact pieces of data you're given (meaning, two sides and the angle between them), then you can use that formula to find out the area right away.
In more convoluted example, you may have to perform additional calculations before that, such as using the sine theorem in order to find out one of the sides you need.
thank you so I have to follow a formula
The general way this type of question is solved - yes.
The formulas you typically use are:
sin (angle) = opposite / hypotenuse
cos (angle) = adjacent / hypotenuse
tan (angle) = opposite / hypotenuse
So, for example, if the angle you're given is 30°, and you're told that the hypotenuse is 10 cm, and you want to find the opposite side, you use the sine formula:
sin (30°) = opposite / 10 cm
30° is a common angle, so you use its sine value: 0.5, and you get:
0.5 = opposite / 10 cm
and from there, you solve for the third side.
In some other occasions, you may have both sides, and then you need to calculate the sine, cosine or tangent of the angle, from which you can extract the angle.
Ah thank you so much for taking your time to explain it to me I’m very grateful @twilit zenith
Anyone know how to do proofs?
Yes. It is assumed someone will be able to help you here. Just post the question you have.
what is the best method to find cos(x) if you know sin(x)?
use identities
there are plenty
for example, sin(theta) = cos(pi/2 - theta)
if you are using deg
its 90deg - theta
or pythag
not in all quadrants sin(theta) = cos(pi/2-theta) is it ?
but it general thats correct ...
$\sin^{x}+\cos^2{x}=1$
83247839
@compact jasper
Can anyone explain how to do this please
shouldn't you just use pythagorean identities
for 90 45 45 triangle
yea i’m just confused on this one now @old fable
the angle is 60 tight
right
and you can see from the triangle that the angle opposite of the 60 degr is 90
so it means that the triangle is a 30 60 90 one
yea
you can use the same identities
ohhh ok
you get it?
yea ty
np
i feel like i did something wrong @old fable
np
How do u do this
if you're being given a single angle like 5pi/12 and you need to split that into two for a sum and difference are there any tricks to do it without a unit circle?
Do you know the Inscribed angle theorem? I'm not sure it is the only way to solve this but it should work...
yo really need help with this
idk how to lay out geometry in english so hopefully it's clear
i have an exam in 2 hours and theres a small concept i still don't understand in my trig class, can someone dm?
Ask here
trig identities is so confusing for me
i literally cannot do any hw i’m assigned 😭
Can someone help me with this one?
I got x is 5
Can someone tell me if I’m correct
<@&286206848099549185>
that is incorrect
can you tell me where I went wrong
i don't know how you got x=5
calculate a random side and hope for the best?
one of the legs has a length of 5 but it won't be the length of the longer leg
oh my i got the short side
instead of the long side
I misread
is it 5 sqrt 3
?
yes
oh didn't know geogebra can graph vector
yeah click on the line segment button and it should come up
can you help me with my problem too @versed river
Can someone please explain to me how they figure out the letter order and what letters to use? (Probably not the best at explaining so message me if you need me to try and explain it another way)
@naive tapir
I'm going to destroy you
wdym letter order, if you want to name an angle the middle letter is the angle, the left and right dont really matter in the order of naming it, unless you’re gonna correspond it with another angle.
is anyone available to help explain some stuff to me??
Could anyone help me out with some trigonometry?
For ellipses, does the square of the major axis mean anything in regards to its area? Trying to look at a geometric proof for a physics problem and it's buggin me hard. This is the proof, from the wiki page on "Shell theorem". I made it fine up to just after the ratios of the ellipses. Once it says "Therefore the two ellipses are similar, so their areas are as the squares of their major axes" that part kind of loses me.
I think the point trying to be made is that for each unit of distance from P, the area of the ellipse is proportional to the square of that distance
is there any books on trigonometry that uses geometry to solve trig identities and build up on geometric intuition
And some books on problem solvinng for harder trig problems
Well, I thoroughly enjoyed reading Euclid, but I know some who did not so I guess it's not for everyone. Worth checking out though: https://mathcs.clarku.edu/~djoyce/java/elements/toc.html
@icy dome ^
Thanks @dark sparrow
Can someone solve 154 = x(x+15)?
we don't give out answers here
yes someone can solve that
I have the ability to solve that
Please help me
You need to prove that the triangles ∆DEH and ∆DFG are congruent and the required result follows from that
Since you're told that $\overline{VT}$ bisects $\measuredangle STU$, it often suggests that you should use the angle bisector theorem. The theorem states that the ratio between the two segments partitioned by the angle bisector is equal to the ratio between the lengths of the corresponding sides. In this case: $\$
$\frac{TS}{TU} = \frac{SV}{VU}$.

To anyone curious, the error is 0.3%, with the angle at approximately 15.04339 degrees.
Anyone here to answer a quick question on a triangle
I'm assuming that from the right angle to the side is where you start from that is the hyp, and then I'm not sure how to determine from theta if "b" is the adja and "a" is opo.
I figured it out nvm I wrote it backwards.
Theta and the right angle is adj
and the other side "b" is opo
question how do i find out the shaded region
The radius of the big circle is equal to the diameter of a small circle
@crude patio
Can you solve the problem with this info ?
Hi, don't know if this should be posted in trig or in calculus, but I think it's more trig related so here :
Here, the person explaining this is trying to prove that the limit of sin(x)/x as it approaches 0 is 1, which, good on him and all. Is that actually necessary to know ? I mean I could literally just graph the function and I'd end up with the same result in a quicker way.
So the question is actually : Is that necessary to know as you're learning Calculus 1 ?
if khan academy teaches it then its needed
But why ? In what part of calculus would I need that ?
No you don`t need the proof of that to get through calc 1
But it is needed in calc 2 or 3 then ?
Ah I see, well thank you! I was wondering, this felt like the formal definition of limits all over again
Yeah... you just need to know what a limit is conceptually and how to find the limit of a function
if you want to get intuition behind something then look up a proof
Like I can know that the derivative of e^x is e^x. But why? Then I look up a proof
Yeah I see exactly what you mean, thank you ! It is great that Khan academy goes into details and proof like that though
Yeah the number of available resources the internet offers is incredible for learning
@unreal beacon thxxx i got the answer from before
$\lim_{x\to 0} \frac{\sin(x)}{x}$ is quite the famous limit.
pᴉʞɔɐp
There are multiple ways to go about it, but the way Khan does it is quite nice and geometrically clear.
Also, if you have learned about the definition of the derivative, this limit will appear when trying to find the derivative of sin(x).
I do indeed know about derivatives but not fully, our program had this weird math syllabus where we learned things that are in calc 1 without learning pre-calc beforehand, nor trigonometry, which is why I'm teaching myself all over again
But thanks! I didn't know that this was the derivative of sin(x) yet !
I'm not gonna lie I still prefer the graphical way of proving it but I'm sure the geometrical way has its benefits that I might just not be familiar with yet
This isn't the derivative of sin(x), that is not what I meant.
Care if I show you what I mean in #calculus ?
Yes of course ^^
Alright, I'll meet ya there
The angle subtended at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference? If the angle at the centre is 90° (right angled), then ∅ is 45°... I think. Let someone else confirm
not true. it's x^2 + x^2 = (9sqrt(2))^2
I am trying to inscribe an ellipse in a convex quadrilateral using five points. The four points where the ellipse intersects the sides are found using parallel projection. The fifth point is where some bisectors meet, as indicated by this sketch.
This first looks like it works, as seen here.
i forgot about the ^2 thanks for reminding me
However, for some arrangements it does not. Is this an error in my construction or an error in GeoGebra?
Fiddle here: https://www.geogebra.org/geometry/evpxxz6g
No ideas as to why that construction "mostly" works?
Because angles can be bigger than 90 degrees, @gray minnow ?
@peak flower not in triangle
isnt trigonometry about triangles
no wait
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
There are also "non right" triangles which have more than 90 degree angles
And also, trigonometry has many other uses.
sorry if this sounds stupid
but
why sin(pi/2 + a) = cos(a)
i saw unit circle definition on khan academy website
i did not understand why in 2nd quadrant triangle adjacent side to angle becomes sin
he said side OA becomes sin(theta + pi/2)
shouldn't it be cos(theta + pi/2) because base/hypotenuse = cosine??
@gray minnow I don't really know how to explain it on the unit circle but look at the graph of sine and cosine, then it makes perfect sense.
,w plot sin(x) and cos(x)
im starting to understand now
that unit circle definition doesnt really follow that ratio property outside 1st quadrant
in unit circle definition y coordinate is sine and x coordinate is cosine, the ratios doesnt reallly matter
correct me if im wrong
its because of this definition that sine and cosine graph follows that wave fashion
hi i need help with qn
@hasty flare Are those planes specified in hessian normal form?
Or is it the parametric form, but with only an r component?
Is the scalar product form
So, those two are parallel planes, given that the normal of the first is a multiple of the second. I don't know how to construct ABCE though, so I'll pass.

Or like why I can t see advanced math
Server
Or math meme or discussed question learn new info
@gray minnow you are right in thinking that the adjacent side is related to cos, but the identity sin(pi/2+a) = cos(a) shows that they are equal. both things are saying pretty much the same thing. should it be cos(theta+pi/2)? well cos(theta+pi/2) = cos(theta) * cos(pi/2) - sin(theta) * sin(pi/2) = cos(theta) * 0 - 1 * sin(theta) = -sin(theta). does oa = -sin(theta)? cos(theta) = OA/hyp --> OA = hyp * cos(theta). In a unit circle the radius is 1, which is also the hypotenuse of this triangle. After you simplify you get OA = cos(theta) = sin(pi/2+a). Thus cos(theta+pi/2) does not equal OA. hopefully that helps
yes i can see that the trigonometry identity fits with the relation
can i have help please
well whats the perimeter of a square
Perimeter of a square is 4 times it's side length. If the perimeter is 100, then that means one side of the square is 25. If the side length is set to 4x-3, then 4x-3=25. Therefore 4x=28, and x=7.
use trig ratios:$\$ $\theta = 72$, adjacent = 8, opposite = x, hypotenuse = unkown
$$\sin(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$$
$$\cos(\theta) = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$$
$$\tan(\theta) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}$$

whats the definition of adjacent @dull reef
Im pretty sure they were helping Keane...
hello
i have a problem
so if i have an arrow and its facing upwards, to move it i would decrease y
if its facing right, i would increase x
and etc
my question would be, how would i know how much x/y should i change by if the angle is unknown
for example if the object is facing upwards the angle is 0
if right then 90
and etc
but if the angle is for example 233, how would i then know by how much should i change x/y if i want to move it upwards
I think you're talking about vectors, so you would just break it into components
idk whats a vector
well not really
???
can u join a call and i would screenshare (i wont talk)
this was just an example
its a bit different in reality
im confused with the whole cosine and sine ting can some1 help?
try posting a question youre confused about
sure
there are many ways to explain it
this is the right triangle method of trig is the image below.
other things like include: cotangent = adjacent/opposite, secant = hypotenuse/adjacent, and cosecant = hypotenuse/opposite iirc
the full version goes for all angles, not just those from 0 to pi/2.
notice how tan(theta) is a tangent line on the circle
is this correct
i think it is
actually
nvm
it isnt
wait
ok i made some miscalculations
false is the correct answer
but try to look for cases where this would be wrong
which ones are wrong if u guys can help me
my teacher takes homework seriously
#17 im working on still
do you know the side ratios for a 30 60 90 triangle
shortest side is a, longest leg is a root 3, and hypotenuse is 2a
Can anyone please help with this question? I dont know where to start.
@grand mango ez
if there is a gp with three terms
a ,b and c what is there relationship with each other?
||use that to throw 2 sin theta , 1 + cos theta and 4 sin theta and then multiply b and c and use (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 ||
|| then use sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta = 1 to get rid of the sin^2 theta ||
finally do a bit of manipulation and you have your result proven
the key to the question is to know the relationship of a geometric sequence's (first) three terms
Thanks, but i dont understand what they want as a result
who ?
the question
they want you to proove the identity
This is too hard, lemme try
i can send you the proof written down if you want

Does anyone know how to do this
For part a, apply distance formula using the known point (5, 5).
Where a is obviously equal to the distance between R and Q or S.
Working on the proof atm.
Probably not with that small of a screenshot
Does anyone know how to do this?
I think you should be able to solve that given that you can draw an apothem and have two sides of a right triangle.
Er, rather, you have one side of a 30-60-90 triangle, which you can use to find the apothem, which is also the radius of the circle.
help with what
did you post a question earlier that got buried?
@rough stone could you (re)post your question please
so the answer comes out to 22.52 degrees
but I'm getting 0.383
excuse me what
can you show exactly what youre putting into it that gives you an answer of 22.52
?
pic uploading
you're trying to evaluate 4 sin(50°)/8, yes or no
so really you want the value of B given that sin(B) = 4sin(50°)/8
yes
,w arcsin(sin(50°)/2) in degrees
I was trying to find the values of the angles to get the values of the sides
Wolfram Alpha doesn't understand your query!
Perhaps try rephrasing your question?
Click here to refine your query online
so I take the inverse of sin
you got 22.52 degrees from your calculator?
so I've been putting 4sin50/8 and not the arc sign
hold on
I just don't know how to compute it in the calculator lol
I feel retarded
What did I do wrong here?
Ignore the 4 extra row of problems, not sure why it’s doing that.
show work?
Sounds like Ann got you taken care of
these solutions are a little hard to diagnose for faults
Okay, first, make sure your calculator is in degrees
Yes it is
Okay good.
Now do $\sin^{-1}(ans)$
dackid
Where ans stands for answer
Wow how does that work o.0
I’ve been sitting here for 2 hours trying to figure out this problem
Lol
The ans takes account of the last output given by the calculator
You can also store outputs as variables
So let’s say we didn’t do it that way
Is there an easier way?
Or would that be the easiest to input
- answer is super easy to do, but we can do this in one go
I tried in wolfram and get a different answer like 21.94
[\sin^{-1}(\sin(50)/2)]
dackid
So when inputting this I get 25
Yes you are. You are putting the 2 inside the sine, which is not where it should be
So in terms of the half is that determined by the 4/8 reduced to 1/2?
Yep
Let’s say if it were to be 3/9 it would be arc sin(sin(50)/3
You forgot to close the arcsine, but yes
You betcha
Lol I used to think is is what people meant when they said algebraic geometry
How can you determine whether a triangle has two triangles or one?
is that the arc sign of the answer?
What does it mean for a triangle to "have two triangles or one"?
In what context did you see this wording?
Ah, thanks

Post your question.
is this correct
Its 1/2abSinC
if you have an angle in between two sides you can use the trig area rule (1/2)absinC but you may need to manipulate the values based on which variables you have
Ill never understand why people suggest heron's first and foremost >.>
Those are tangents to a circle.
Do you know the formula to find the angle formed outside the circle by two tangents?
answers?
For the triagnle, use Pythagorus Theorem
That will then get you all of the polygon sides
is the solution x = (7pi)/6 + (2pi)/6, n is an element of the integers equivalent to the ones in the screenshot?
x = (7pi)/6 + (2pi)/6, how come you divided 2pi?
"What name refers to an angle whose terminal ray is positioned on the x or y-axis"
is it standard position
$$\cos{(a+b)}=\cos{a}\cos{b}-\sin{a}\sin{b}$$
ninnymonger
What’s the standard name for this formula? (And its sister formula for sines.?)
It’s not the double angle formula.... that’s only true when a= b.
it’s not the law of cosines.
is it named after some famous dead persian math boi?
You can prove it using complex algebra....dear lord I don’t know the name of its identity.
I was just trying to find a shorter solution to the answer, would (7pi)/6 + (2pi)/6n be an equivalent solution because adding (2pi)/6n can reach both 11pi/6 and 9pi/6 While replacing +(2pi)n if multiplied by 6?
You don't divide the 2pi. I'm trying to remember properly but from memory, 2pi is the period and the 7pi is when it occurs. n is how many times it goes around
ok thank you
i need help with this
@remote bronze Marking the center and drawing radi to the corners will give you isosceles triangles. You are given the central angle for one of them. For the other two, use the central angle theorem together with the given inscribed angle.
ah ok
i got x = 65
That's correct.
ok ty
Yo anyone know how to even start this problem I’ve been stuck for a while now
Find x using Pythagoras. Find the angle for which 6 is opposite and 15 the hyp. This will in turn give you the other angle in the bottom left corner. Use tan for that now known angle with y as opposite and x as adjacent (with x now known).

oh yup
gotcha
basically
we want to factor x^2 - 9x - 22

or i just never learned them or i just don't know them or a combination
¯_(ツ)_/¯
@silent plank this is my last wrong answer. do you know the answer to this?
or better question,
how to solve it?
,w calculate 2(27.4 - 5.9 + 5.9 + 12.2)
I have a intresting question it camed to my mind
If i have a jigsaw puzzle. 48cm X 34cm and it have 500 piece
How can i calculate each piece avrage possible size
Yeah maybe
apply properties of similar triangles
^
also use substitution with pythagorean theorem after getting a certain side
if u dont wanna use similar triangles thing
ahh nvm
u end up getting two extraneous answers
wtf is $m$
spoon
$\text{wtf is} : m$

Late reply, but ΔEFG and ΔHFJ are similar, so you can use that to set the angle measures equal to each other.
I’m a bit confused by what you are asking…r is the radius of the circle and is not half the of the rectangle’s length. A radius touches the perimeter of the circle, so if you would draw that radius parallel to the rectangle’s longest pair of sides, it would be longer than half the rectangle’s length.
Since r can touch where the two sides of the rectangle meet (since it also touches the circle there), you can draw triangles if you would ever need to solve for things.
Well, I asked because the radius is counted at the corner of the rectangle so I thought maybe?
The relationship with what I think your are talking about is a triangle where: r^2 = (b/2)^2 + (h/2)^2
Which would be what happens when you draw a line from the center of the circle to the midpoint of the shorter side of the rectangle.
hey ive been trying to figure this out. can some of you help? you have to find the length of red and green lines. also the main lines are parallel
apply properties of similar triangles
yes i know i just dont know where to begin
GA is similar to GX, and GB is similar to GY. Use a proportion since you know three of those lengths.
one way is coordinate bashing i guess
could be done with angle sums, properties of certain triangles
what is the difference between arc sin of x and sin invere of x
Is 6 the answer?
howd u get it
did u get the area of the rectangle
then like
got the square root
Yeah
Is 75 the answer?
N is the foot of the perpendicular to the tangent at what?
the last word(s) got cut off
Tangent at P
ah.
hm
...which of these answer options even represent points on your ellipse in the first place?
it feels as if only option A fits just that alone
all the others don't give you 1 if you evaluate x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2
I though of taking parametric coordinates ( a cosø ,b sinø) but the process is very tedious and long
Yes ik options can be put to get the answer but rn I’m more into the method without using brute calculus
is this one of those "solve in under 10 seconds" questions
bc under THAT time constraint the only method is to test the answer options
okay so like
you can try letting $P = (x_0, y_0)$, try to write down the equation of the tangent, then find the coordinates of $N$ and maybe there's something clever to be done along the way that they expect you to just know

No definitely not a 10sec question but must be done within 10 min or so
I don't know what category of geometry this math goes under, but I'm building a function to make the 0-intersection of a hyperbola fit two spheres like one sphere is a light source and the other is the object casting a shadow. I have everything working except for the position of the 0-centered sphere.
Can't quite find where to insert the remaining aspect that takes Bx into account.
is this correct
Looks correct
What test is this??
homework
,w (r-10)²+12²=r²
,calc 61/5
Result:
12.2
Looks correct
In Right Triangle xyz, with integer side lengths x, y and z, P = 510, and A = kP for some prime number k. Determine all possible values of k
<@&286206848099549185>
That's how it be sometimes
How do I solve this?
Notice how c on dcf lies on the circle
A rule of circles is that if there's an angle with its midpoint lying on a circle the the arc it creates is twice the angle
Since a circumference is kinda measured in 360 degrees
Then If an arc created by an angle who's midpoint is in the center is measured in an angle then the angle is the same as the arc
So boom that should be what u need
hmmm
maybe join M with A, B and C and consider the areas of the six triangles your ABC is split into?
just spitballing here, it may very well be useless to do that
I think I've seen something similar
yeah try drawing || parallel to AC through M, parallel to AB through M and parallel to BC through M ||
bmo1 problem
exactly
yeah it's pretty weird
hello. How did the 1-sintheta/costheta become 90-theta/2?
i may have copied it wrong
^
but i'm not sure if they're equal?
@tender prawn you have your angles in radians there you need to switch them to degrees in the settings (top right)
eek noob mistake my bad
xd
oh use =(1-cos(x))/sin(x) where x is 90-theta, and then cos(90-theta)=sin theta and vice versa @nocturne junco
hopefully that's right 
Did you draw a parallelogram?
This is basically just asking you to list the properties of a parallelogram
yeah
You know or you don't?
i dont...
Do you have a textbook?
Where do you learn from then?
Well, then google parallelogram
what did you learn before this
uh
algebra
and
dis new lesson
geometry
and i have no clue at all
so a parallelogram is a quadrilateral with opposite sides being parallel
did u learn any geometry before this
nope
previous lesson
is
algebra
then moved to geomtery
and dis paralelogram thing
hmm
tmx 4 try
do you know how to prove triangles congruent or anything like that
yikes
yeah ik im so dumb
they probably just want you to google properties then 
nah it's not rly ur fault
they kind of threw u into the deep end if u have no prior geo knowledge
what grade/age?
9th grade
do you know about corresponding angles or alternate interior angles in parallel lines
i gotta do smt, here's a video

it has most of the stuff, if you have questions on why some of the stuff is true just ask
and this. p and q are parallel lines cut by transversal r, the numbers with the same color have the same measure, that should help with some of the angle stuff
Type faster
think the transversal is 't', not 'r' .
Parallelograms in 9th grade right after algebra? That's a strange introduction to trig.
if anyone can solve this ima be forever thankful
Do you know how to find angles?
they left the server.
sad
Hello, can anyone help me with this question <@&286206848099549185>
since the arcs are congruent i assumed that the central angles would also be congruent

oh sry
but would the arc length be the same as well?
But what you have picked is correct
They tell you the arc length is the same
Since the radius is the same, so will the angle
I was confused between a and c
Oh it is c sorry
I didnt even look at the other answers lmao
Yeah cause b is also correct for the same reasons so answer is def c

"If sin A is 0.865 what is angle A"
guys is there a formula for how to do this question
?
oh okay thanks
Does anyone know how to do the law of sines
yes
loads of people do in fact
Yeah im having hella trouble
however, if you want help with using law of sines, ask the question rather than ask if anyone knows X
cause best bet is someone in a math discord knows that math
a cant both be 65 and 30
moshill1
ohh ok
so then solve for b
then you can find the gamma angle by angle sum of a triangle, then use law of since by with gamma and c instead of beta and b
Find the straight line parallel with alpha1 : x +2y +4z = 8 and Alpha 2: x - y - 2z = 6 and trough p(2,1,0)
This is my solution. Is this correct?
@nocturne thicket https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inscribed_angle
In geometry, an inscribed angle is the angle formed in the interior of a circle when two secant lines intersect on the circle. It can also be defined as the angle subtended at a point on the circle by two given points on the circle.
Equivalently, an inscribed angle is defined by two chords of the circle sharing an endpoint.
The inscribed angle t...
so 45 degrees then?
Yes
Thanks!
let GF=x, what's the length of EF?
21-x
right
so both GFH and EFH are right triangles
so you can determine the value of x since HF is a common side
They are teaching this in my Geometry CBE class
But for some reason he didnt talk about how to find JM
@quartz torrent wow, took a bit but I have the solution which I will lead u to
Ok thanks!
Notice how, when the medians are drawn, it creates 2 right triangles
Relative altitude is the highest altitude throughout the whole quadrilateral I'm pretty sure
Which is given
ok
But anyways these are the 2 triangles created @quartz torrent
So now u can use substitution with the pythagorean theorem to find C
Can anybody get the area of the striped part of the sphere
