this guy put it as an axiom that's why i say it
@grim rampart does "a" stand for axiom? it's a theorem
ah yeah
though of course different axiomatizations of geometry exist
so maybe all this is pointless
Yeah true
@grim rampart just make sure to not mix up axioms with theorems like in the specific axiom system you're using
oh okay
how can i solve certain geometry problems
i get stuck on how to start the proofs
make a diagram depicting all the info you're given
attempt to recognize familiar objects such as triangles or arrangements of straight lines
just to copy your diagram and make it slightly more readable
i have a stinking feeling like itll involve a lot of fuckery with the laws of sines and cosines
AD is parallel to BC?
if you make a copy of ABD and paste AB along CD (calling the new point E), ECBD will be a trapezium and point A will coincide C, so angle A will be equal to D = 50
the fact that its a trapezium can be proven by similar triangles ig
The trapezium trick is pretty

does anyone know why inverse functions are reflected in the line y=x? if we have a point (x,y) and we flip the order, how do we know those two points are reflected in the line y=x?
Cause the definition of inverse implies, expressing x, in terms of y. Now think of it :)
yeah i know the points swap but why does that swap cause a refelction in y=x
is there like a geometric proof of this?
Not sure of a geometric proof but think about what an inverse function does intuitively, for the original function it takes an input and maps that to an output. The inverse will reverse that process and revert The new input (which is actually the output of the original), into the output of the new function ( which is the input of the original)
When we find an inverse function algebraically, we swap the x and y’s in order for this to occur
Hence the functions are reflections of each other in the line y=x
oh ok that makes sense
thanks!
Hi! So I tried this problem but I keep getting 32 but my teacher says it's wrong and I'm not sure what to do-
I believe this is coordinate geometry
How are you working out 32 btw?
So first find the vector PQ and the vector QR, these are perpendicular to each other. Find the magnitudes of these vectors (the lengths) and multiply them together for the area of the rectangle
Oh sorry let me send the work I tried-
I did two things, I tried this square method which led me to 32 and also the distance formula which got me to 25
Wait
6 square is not 12 hold on
Hmm she says the answer is 30
I got that also
6^2 +3^2
Is 36+ 9
45*
Oh my I wrote 48 that's why-
So the other length is root 45, so area = root 45 x root 20
Which is root 900
Which is 30 units^2
Go ahead
See the triangle WXY? All you need to use is the fact that angles in a triangle sum to 180, so that 8x-3+3x+12 + <WXY =180
Then solve for the angle
Unless I’m under simplifying it lol
Oop- Honestly Imma take your word for it!! THANK YOU!!
But you need to find x first
But it isn’t, how did you get that?
Oh I just took the equation that you gave but took the wxy out-
I'm guessing thats not correct-
Bc it’s a rhombus the supplementary angles sum to 180, so that 8x-3+5x+6 + wxy also= 180
So now we have simultaneous equations
Am I overcomplicating this horrifically? Probably
XD
But yeah if we can solve the simultaneous equations we can work out wxy
Basically
These angles sum to 180:
And so do these angles
So we can form 2 equations in terms of x and WXY
And I’m assuming you know how to solve simultaneous equations I’m sure you can get x and the angle that way
Yep
Bc that’d eliminate the WXY
And then you can sub the value of x in
To find the angle
That equals 8x-3 +3x+12
Solve that to find x
SO WE PUT THEM EQUAL TO EACH OTHER-
Yes
Bc they’re both 180
Yep
Yep
Yaya!
Then just 180 - (8x-3)-(3x+12) for the angle
Would I substitute x in?
Ah alrighty!!
Does it give you the right answer?
Ah it's taking a bit sorry!! I was moving rooms
No worries lol I was just eager to know if all that was for nothing haha, haven’t done angles in years
Hmm I didn’t get that
138?
Oh wait
I got 138
Hopefullyyyy!!! THANK YOU SO MUCCHHH
No problem haha
: DDDD
Yep exactly that's correct.
Kind of XD
look, the diagonal acts as an angle bisector.
Or, use properties of isosceles ∆
It would Become a linear in one variable either ways
Hi, I would like to know how to solve the question 3. It says: "Find the equations of the tangent lines to the elipse (first equation describes the elipse) that are parallel to the line (equation of the line)
are you allowed to use calculus?
no unu
good luck 👍
xD
I´ve been trying to solve it with a friend for about 3 hours
time to mail my teacher, i guess
it's probably not that bad to solve tbh, make a line with the same slope with an undetermined y-intercept and make it intersect at one point, so that probably will end up amounting to setting a discriminant=0
Creo que había un método fácil para determinar tangentes a cónicas
it's really easy assuming calculus, by using implicit differentiation. Without that, Merosity's suggestion is probably the best way
I feel like if we scale the x and y axis properly and shift the origin, this will just be the same as finding a tangent to a circle with origin as centre of a given slope, and because of the perpendicularity of tangents to the line joining the radius i think this shouldn’t be so bad
Oh i just saw merosity’s answer, i think even in my way you would need to solve a quadratic so it isn’t really any better
Hey guys, I tried in the questions channels, without any luck. Since it's geometry, I thought I might try here:
I have two 2d coordinate systems, and I need a formula to transform a point from system 1 to system two. All I have is the information that 3051/7966 is -127.94/49.1 and that 9664.96/8836.96 is -114.4/155.55
Someone told me to normalize, and then compare angles and whatnot, but I'm unable to pick up from there.
Yike that's jibberish.
What is 3051/7966?
What does it mean for something to be "is"?
Maybe your point is (3051, 7966) and after the transformation you expect it to go to (-127.94, 49.1)?
yes 😉
and the other point too
my gut feeling tells me with those two "point pairs" it should be possible to come up with a transformation "formula", but I have no idea how
,w solve system -127.94 = 3051a + 7966b, 49.1 = 3051c + 7966d, -144.4 = 9664.96a + 8836.96b, 155.55 = 9664.96c + 8836.96d

Okay so there's exactly one linear system that can be used as a mapping for your points
If you keep (0,0) to (0,0) and stretch/rotate everything else, it can be done
I don't know what "do" means here
Well, come up with a "formula" to transform arbitrary points from the first coordinate system to the second. Sorry if I don't know the right words to ask the question, bear with me, I'm an old man.
Right. So if your point is (x,y) and you want to transform to (u,v) then:
u = ax + by
v = cx + dy
Where a,b,c,d are those numbers in the picture
oh! I'll try that, thanks!
They should probably be written as decimals oop Wolfram just didn't feel like doing that
sure, I can do that 😉
Good luck with it! Feel free to ask if you need anything else with it
thank you very much
@dapper bronze i can help.
It’s a practice test, what’s the rule against that
read test
The distance between A and D is 1
It's a equal sided triangle in a circle
Find a,CD and the radius
I've tried to use the cosine theorem after i got that 1+BD=CD but idk hot to continue
You have to calculate DCA
The angle DCA
Use the fact it is a cyclic quadrilateral
@narrow plinth
It's the angle formed by DC and CA
Okay thx
It's an inscribed angle
After that you'll notice AD is the side of a regular polygon inscribed in the circumference
And then u get the radius from that
One more question
I tried to do this
Is the sin of the angle CAD times CD equal to the gray line
Are you required to use trigonometry?
Okay do you know inscribed angles?
Yes
Okay, since the angles DAB and BCD are both subtended by the same arch, they are equal
And you know BCA because that's an equilateral triangle, so you can take the difference to get DCA
Btw all the answers are nested radicals
Is it possible to divide a circle's circumference by the distance a point has traveled along said circle to get the arc's degree of measure?
Or am I wildly drawing false thoughts
hello
the path travelled / circumference = angle degree travelled / 360 degrees
a basic EFG prism such as EF = 3cm, EG = 4cm and FG = 5cm and the height of 10cm
a) calculate the volume of the prism
b) calculate the lateral surface of the prism
c) calculate the total area of the prism
how do I find b (the period) of the trig equation y = 2sin(x)+1?
someone help me w this geometry hw 💔
for number 7
the amplitude would be 3
period is 2pi/2, which is pi
phase shift is none
cause there's nothing being subtracted or added to x (in paranthesis)
can somebody help plz
Use area of sector formula
which is? @uncut path
Pi r^2 * theta/360
what’s the theta? @uncut path
Angle of sector i.e 112
How can I find tan(275), given sin(85) = 0.996? Without using any calculators to directly calculate the value.
tan(275) = tan(275-360) = -tan(85) = -sin(85)/cos(85)
would it be 98? @uncut path
Triangle xyz will undergo a transformation to create triangle x'y'z' which of the following rules will result im triangles that are the same size?
Would it be the first and the 4th ones?
A triangle has angles that measure 35°, 65°, and 80°. If the shortest side of the triangle is
18 inches, find the length of its longest side to the nearest inch.
how would i solve something like this
You learn any trig identities yet?
nope
cause of covid we aint rlly learn anything
the course was all over
and idk how to do it
Well there is more then one way to solve this, but I'm not sure what tools you can use. I assume you can use the trig functions and Pythagorean theorem at least?
Eh, you could use the same method to derive the law of sines to solve it without the law of sines too
it'd be exceedingly cumbersome
A little, yep. But some parts of the world still teach it by asking them to solve it without law of sines first.
@half patio do you have access to the law of sines?
no, what is that
like cos sin?
$\frac{a}{\sin(A)} = \frac{b}{\sin(B)} = \frac{c}{\sin(C)}$
Ann
does this sound familiar to you?
yeah i seen it before
make a diagram of your triangle
and put all 3 angles in?
make a diagram of your triangle, label it ABC (for convenience), and label all angles with their values
just the angles for now.
then show me what you got.
ping me once you upload the pic here.
could've made the triangle not seem isosceles... but okay, whatever, we're not drawing it to scale anyway.
ohh
this diagram is fine.
it's not to scale, but it's fine.
now, the shortest side of the triangle is 18 inches.
are you able to identify, based on the angles, which side of ABC is the shortest?
uhh they are all equal but
no.
yeah i can pick one sure
no, they are not all equal.
no, they are not all equal. this is not an equilateral triangle.
yeah i know
yeah
okay, yes, you are correct. side AC is the shortest.
now, the problem asks for the longest side.
which side is the longest?
uppercase.
AB, yes.
AB is the longest side.
now, back to your diagram, label the side AC with its length 18 in, and label AB with the letter x
and show me the diagram once you made these labels
@dark sparrow
yes.
do you see how each fraction involves one of the sides and the angle opposite to it?
18/sin(35) = x/sin(80)
no, this is not correct.
and cut out the side we don't care about.
like that?
uhh not sure how to get rid of sin
sin(35) and sin(80) are just numbers.
no.
you cannot just erase the word "sin" from both sides of an equation just because you don't like trig.
that'd be like erasing the digit 7 from everywhere in an equation.
it's nonsense.
if you really insist on pulling out the calculator at this stage...
i wouldn't do that.
you're overthinking things.
all it takes to solve for x is multiply both sides by sin(80)
then the other sin would cancel out, but wouldnt it create another?
no! the sines would not cancel out!
what is it with you and your urge to cancel things out in nonsensical ways!
LOL i got no clue
sin(80) does not mean the product of 80 with a number called sin !!!
the answer is x = 18 sin(80)/sin(35) !!!
and NOW you can get your beloved calculator out and have it find the value of that.
jeez, hell if i know
but you need to round it to the nearest inch, which you definitely haven't done.
,w 18 * sin(80°)/sin(35°)
tyy
i need HELP with some ORTHONORMAL SYSTEM / TRIGONOMTERY
show that OH x 4√5 = 4 x 8
OH x EF = OE x OF
how do i do
consider area of a triangle
apply the formula for the area of triangle FOE in two different ways
i
think my calculations are wrong
i did (FO x EO) / 2 for the area
is that right
Area = 1/2 bh where
h is the altitude relative to the respective base b
yes
but in the end i use (FE x OH) / 2 = 16 ?
and replace numbers
but what about the equation they gave us
this is the question
(FO x EO) / 2
(FE x OH) / 2
can both be used to get the area of the triangle
and would give you the same value. note that I at no point actually asked you to calculate the area of the triangle
i see
thanks
we calculated the area in the question before
so ill use that and write them both will equsl to 16
thank you
I'm pretty sure a graph is needed, but wouldn't you be able to plug in A and t into the original equation?
are you familiar with Pythagorean theorem? a^2+b^2=c^2?
yea somewhat
let a=5 and 12=b, calculating those should allow you to find c
then do i find the square root of c
yes, since you squared both 5 and 12, you would reverse the process and square root the result to find c
All angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees; since you know two angles, can you figure out the 3rd using algebra?
If you want, explain to me the process you think is correct and I'll add on if needed?
right idea, wrong application; add the two known angles together, 90 and 36, and subtract that from 180.
then that will give me x?
That will give you what 3 * x equals
divide the answer you got by 3, and that will leave you with x
ok
What was your final answer for x?
18
Nice
how would i find x if theres no number with x
Using your last triangle, you would add 90 and 36, 126, and subtract 126 from 180
180-126=54, or x
oh so the number i get out of subtracting is x
yes
oh, hold on
i think i got it but idk how to do the other one
@lethal crow you could use the reciprocal of tangent to find x, since you have the opposite side with angle 25
how do i do that (sry im kinda dumb)
Using the reciprocal of tangent, (cot), you would do cot25(x/8)
@lethal crow or so I believe, I can't figure out my own question so I'm frying my brain over it
so 25x/200?
it's been awhile since I've done that, but I don't think that's it. There's a lot of external equations that go into that one
Sin=o/h Cos=a/h Tan=o/a
The thing to remember is these inputs will vary on what angle you choose, with the exception of the hypotenuse.
You also need to use an angle other than the 90 that's provided
@lethal crow
ok
what's that number supposed to be for?
Would anyone be able to help me personally with a couple find domain,range,period questions?
yes, glad I could help
Mosh is capable of helping you. I'm glad I could be of service.
Yes Mosh please assist me
Lol in the future just start with the question right away. What's up?
nono im stuck with the q so i cant proceed
Yeah what's the q?
so if u like look at A
The vertex would be ( -2, -3) right?
But there are 2 graphs that interesect at the same vertx
graph e and f
how am I supposed to know which one is the correct one?
One of those two graphs has more vertical stretch than the other
a and e have the same vertex, which has more vertical stretch?
Anyone need math help?
I’m stuck in a problem could someone help? I’m supposed to find the exact cube roots of the complex number, no decimals, and I’m supposed to use radians and leave my answer in polar form -4sqrr(2)(1-i)
@upper karma could you help me??
are u trying to find the angle in degrees?
I don’t think I’m trying to find angles
I’m supposed to get the cube roots of the complex number
In polar form
I’ll send a pic
aight
The instructions say to find the exact cube root for that complex number
Then to leave the answer in polar form
Okay so putting it into polar form is the first step
Ohh ok
If you can identify the magnitude and angle of the number, that's enough to put it into polar
Sorry missed the negative haha. Yeah! That's perfect
Now Demoivre's theorem, says that when we take the cube root, we can put it into the sin and cos instead
A cube root of this number is
2(cos(π/4) + isin(π/4))
We can get another cube root by first changing the angle by 2π, then doing this
There's three cube roots to get
I’m getting a little confused so I’m gonna plug in the cube root for sin and cos??
Instead of doing
[cos(t) + isin(t)]ⁿ
You can do
cos(nt) + isin(nt)
That's DeMoivre's theorem
n is 1/3 here
[walks into a restaurant] "Hellooooo!!! Can someone serve me some food!!!!!!!!!"
@earnest basin this is what you sound like rn
I would give Ann food before I helped Shoer with their unknown math problem.
Oh sorry i'm newbie
you should, first and foremost, tell us what you need help with.
Can you draw a picture?
this problem reads very weird to me
Nah, sorry..
it sounds like there's a lot of data missing
like... we are not told when or where the airplane lands. does it land at the airport? if it does, then how are we supposed to find how far it travels after landing?
.............
what is this smiley react supposed to mean?
Idk i just did it lol
K
What the actual...
i did one just like this with the correct equation and i got it wrong so i don’t rlly know what i was doing wrong it’s kinda confusing to me also
that's for the equation for radius,
you'd still need to go through a bit of work before applying that.
yea ik i do and then later on i made the a and b the centers
consider completing the square
and expressing the equation of the circle in centre form
completing the square is the most common method for
converting the equation of a circle in general form to center/standard form
which will let you easily identify the centre and radius of the circle
Can anyone help me with this question?
@ember loom Corresponding Parts of congruent triangles are congruent
So given the congruence statement of ABCD = EFGH,
A corresponds to E
B corresponds to F
C corresponds to G
D corresponds to H
the same applies with angles and sides
Thats what I was thinking but its apparently wrong
you need a numerical value
So I would be adding the angels togther right? I tried 307 which is the sum of the angles 127 + 127 +53 but it said incorrect again
Yes ,I did, E=53 so A does too, B=127, G=127 so C does too, You add them up and its 307, yet I tried that answer but it said it was incorrect.
angle ABC ≠ angle A + angle B + angle C
I dont understand, if I dont add them and its a numerical value then how what do I do to find it?
But this isnt numerical
the measure of angle ABC is the measure of angle B
that's pretty much it
A and C specify the rays that make up the angle
Hmm alright I think I understand
Any help?
thanks bro could you also help me with this
Hi. The exponential has sinh and cosh as its odd/even components. It turns out to be an important function. What about some function that has sin and cos as its odd/even components. It'd be f(x) = cos(x) + sin(x). Is that special or interesting somehow?
not very - though it does happen to be a sinusoid itself
to get the interesting stuff you'll want to multiply the sine by i
$f(x) = \cos(x) + i \sin(x) = e^{ix}$
Ann
<@&286206848099549185>
Wrong
there's nothing tricky in this question, you just need to plug the numbers into the formulas for the volumes of stuff and add them all together
Need a custom math course? Visit https://www.MathHelp.com.
This lesson covers the volume of a cone. Students learn that the formula for the volume of a cylinder is pi times radius squared times height, so the volume of a cylinder that has a radius of 10 feet and a height of 40 feet is pi times 10 squared times 40, or pi times 100 times 40, or 4...
preciate it alot
I ended finding the base for number 1 I think it's 176.8 but I'm not sure if I'm supposed to multiply the base with Height
This video was created to help teach students in Grade 5 or 6 how to calculate the volume of a rectangular prism. This was specifically designed to be used in a classroom with the teaching acting as the facilitator, but it could also be used for home schooling or personal learning.
thanks i'll check it out right now
i don't think the question gives you enough information to calculate the volume of the slanted prism but the volume of the prism that's standing straight up will be bigger
The height is NOT the slant!
Ways to find the height of a prism is using the Pythagorean theorem or trig functions.
help Q17
no
what have you tried so far?
ordering others to solve it
lmao "SOLVE THIS FOR ME" 
,w SOLVE Q17


the terms, as written, are all real
unless you are suggesting ||writing them as arg(3+i), arg(7+i), etc.||
isn't it just a simple telescopic series?
this might be more simple, never thought about it with the complex plane
my idea was using the tan^-1 (a) - tan^-1 (b) formula
the series' general term should be tan^-1(n+1) - tan^-1(n)

never thought about it in that way and now it seems like common sense
thanks 
draw a right angled tri
I think the angle within the line of the 90 degrees is the 15 degrees
I cannot draw
May I see the options for each one? (also DP and WS are given)
i solved by this later

yus circumference en radius
wat u ned help with
ty bro!
The arch is double of the inscribed angle
That's it
And the whole circle is 360 obviously
@digital rose
so the arch is 112 degrees?
Yes
could you help me with 2 more?
Uh maybe
The radius always forms 90 degrees with the tangent line
Well I mean what perimeter are they even talking about
Like the arch and the angle thing? Tf
no idea
i think it could be the arch?
nah it’s the angle
i think?
Ok so you know the formula for the lenght of cirumceference?
Yea exactly
So if you wanna know the lenght of an arch you are gonna have to take a fraction of that
So if you wanna know the lenght of arch VT you'll need to its measure in angles
so how do i get a fraction of it?
Well the radius forms 90 degrees with tangent lines
After that you get a quadrilateral with 3 known angles
The angles of a quadrilateral sum 360 degrees
The angle for VT is that unknown angle
i’m sorry dude i’m really confused
Anyone need math help
anyone know how to do this
do you know how to find the midpoint of two points?
@vital orbit
thank you very much
i have a question
a triangle with an angle of 30, 60, and 90
all of the triangle sides must not be a decimal number
what is the length of the 3 sides of the triangles?
i need this for my track piece for a game
it has to be proportional so that it can connect to each other
it kinda look like this atm
@elder violet, I don’t think there is any way you can have all 3 sides of a 30, 60, 90 triangle as whole numbers. I will try to double check tho
@elder violet why do you need all the lengths to be integers?
as it stands, your problem is impossible
for it to connect perfectly
but it's actually impossible
Yes, there’s no way not with this triangle
closest i can get
the sides of a triangle with 30, 60 and 90 angles are in the ratio 1 : sqrt(3) : 2
why can't you have non integer lengths tho
well it simply that there would be a tiny tiny gap that i bothered about
i need the end of the track has a position which is equal to the start piece of the track
it somewhat works
but the gap
note that according to your graph,
b > 0 > a
you have identified the 2 intercepts, but haven't associated them with the correct variables
oh i see
I cant factorise the qyadratic above
wait they are asking for the line of symmetry right?
no idea how the ans is (4,5)
I used the line of symmetry formula -b/2a thats how I got 4
not sure abt 5
i need help, How do you find the perpendicular height of a cone given volume, ab and radius
Use the equation for the volume of a cone and solve for h
Wait
Lemme check the volume of a cone
np
This is <AED correct?
Look good to me
thanks
What shape is the cleared area?
Given this shape, you can use a formula to find its area
@digital rose
a half circle?
👍
So if you can find the area of this half circle, then you have your answer
In order to find the area, you need the formula for the half circle
what is the formula for a half circle?
do you know what the formula for a circle is?
what was the formula you used for the half circle?
pie then radius divided by two
the divided by 2 is accurate - but the formula for a circle is πr**^2**
so your answer for the area of the half circle is
$\frac{\pi (12.75)^2}{2}$
Shen
👍
i don't have the equations memorized but once you look them up, you just put in the numbers and solve for x
lateral area = 100 pi = something something r
surface area = 136 pi = something something r
then you'll have 2 equations and 2 variables and so you can figure out what r is
do you know how to solve a system of equations?
The first part of this algebra video tutorial explains how to solve systems of equations by elimination and the second part explains how to solve systems of equations by substitution with 2 variables. This tutorial contains plenty of examples and practice problems.

@honest valley I think I figured that out but do you know how I would complete this:?
I know I have to use system of equations here but what formula or the equation basically
same strategy, set up the equations, put it all the information you know, and then solve the system of equations
do you know how to calculate the volume of those shapes?
you have all the info you need to solve it

Probably an error
@covert rune do you need help proving it?
It's unprovable
Thanks for the offer, though
@covert rune that is true what kind of question 😂
You perform the multiplication the same way as if it were two binomials: multiply each term within the trinomial by each term in the binomial.
Yo I'm online and I need help
It let me copy and paste it and I dont want to cheat and look up answers
"Find all points of intersections of the circle x2 + 2x + y2 + 4y = -1 and the line x - y = 1
Find the area of the triangle enclosed by the x - axis and the lines y = x and y = -2x + 3" I'm confused on 1 and 2
The second one you should approach by finding the point of intersection between the two lines.
That will give you the third vertex of the triangle, and from there, you can use distance formula, then Herron’s formula.
OH
OH I THINK I GOT IT
WAIT
ONE SEC
OH OH THANK YOU SO MUCH
LOVE YOU FOR THAT MAN
BYE
TY
bro
i need someone
to teach me
sin cos and tan
like
fast
n
good
;-;
its 9:30 pm i have been studying for
10:30 hours
i just want a revision my exam is tmrw
Sin is equal to the side opposite the angle that you are conducting the functions on over the hypotenuse which is the longest side in the triangle. Cos is adjacent over hypotenuse. And tan is opposite over adjacent, which means tan is sin/cos. this can be proved with some basic algebra.
JSJSJS I CANT
I'm doing a test
wait what grade are you in?
so basically
sin equals opposite/hypotenuse
so just think of it as the opposite
well yeah, no shit
its actually Sine, Cosine and Tangent
but its just shorten
tan adjacent 0 = adjacent cot opposite θ = Unit circle definition. For this definition 0 is any angle.
Are you on right triangles
Find DO, then draw OH. I think you should be able to see where to take that afterward.
DO is 4 in
no
Therefore OH is a radius.
That is correct, but you don’t necessarily need those.
Consider triangle ODH.
You said OD was 4.
And we know that OH is a radius.
Well, the problem states that the radius of the circle is 7.
oh ya
Do you know how to find DH then?
So in triangle ODH, you have:
Leg DO = 4
Hypotenuse OH = 7
DH is a leg, so we want to use the Pythagorean Theorem.
Yes!
ayyooo idk if i am too late but i remember them like this
this is for right triangles btw
Soh- Cah-Toa
Sin = opposite/hypotenuse
Cos =adjacent/hypotenuse
Tan = opposite/adjacent
i don't know if i am able to help you without seeing what you need help with
usually when they say this they will dm you and it's actually their test.
Can someone point me in the right direction here, I’m trying to help someone on their math but I haven’t taken geometry in 8 years
inscribed angle theorem
Yea I got that y is 48
But I don’t know where to go from there
Or is x just 33?
Inscribed angle is any that has a point on the circle?
Why they give so many things if you don’t need all of them 
Not mine I’d never use a MacBook but also who cares
Thank you I get it now
does it matter if you rearange (1-sin^2x) or (1-cosx) for this question?
i'm not sure what you're asking but you can always check if what you have is correct at wolfram alpha
,w tanx = sinx/cosx
can I answer this question without differentiating?
yes
my approach was to create another line, a normal to L
set the 3 equations equal to eachother and solve for the intersection
consider double root / discriminant
i am not sure how the discriminant is relevant here
it may tell me if they intersect, not where, no?
for a tangent you'd want the curve to just bounce off the line
here you'd only want 1 place where they intersect
the quadratic you get when trying to determine where they intersect
the k in y=3x+k tells me the y-intercept of L, no?
yes, but you aren't really interested in that
so if i rearrange $$ \frac{1}{3}x^2 + 8 = 3x+k$$ into $$ k = \frac{1}{3}x^2 - 3x + 8 $$
dlp
i am not sure how this gives me the intersection
basic principles of solving a system of equations
the solutions to this quadratic equation are the x-coordinates of the intersection points between the curve and the line
for a tangent, you'd want this to have 1 solution
consider rearranging this to general form
and solving D = 0
the latter equation is already in general form, no?
but then i'd have k in the quadratic?
yes
so c becomes (8-k)?
yes
very helpful explanation
Can someone please help I’m timed on this and I have no idea what I’m doing
How do i find the maximum area of a rectangle that's inscribed in a right angle triangle and one of the sides of the rectangle is on the hypotenuse
<@&286206848099549185>
draw a diagram to start
oh wait, side is on the hyp
Yeah
This is like the last step of this one big geometry problem and i just wanna be done with it
the earlier parts will probs be useful
I know all side lenghths
Its vertices will touch the middle of the side of the triangle maybe
Myb but how would i prove that
seems like this will involve similar triangles
does it look like this tho ?
Well it should look something like that ig
Found my mistake, it's 11 terms, not 10 
does anyone know how to graph a right triangle on geogebra ?
just graph two lines perpendicular to each other, and a slanted line intersecting those two lines
so imagine line rotating from that single point and than it hits circle
how do I find point where it meets circle
its basically how to find tangent but from specific point
again, what do you mean by "find"? do you want the coordinates of the point, or what?
yes I want cordinates of point where line and circle meets
okay
and i'm assuming the coordinates of the red point and the center of the circle are known? and also the radius of the circle?
yes
are you using any notation for them that i could follow?
what do you mean notation? Sorry english is not my first language
what is your first language
Croatian
okay nevermind
Oh wait I'm serbian I can help
have you given any names to the radius and the points
Lepo lepo
I am basically using old CAD program and I dont know how to find tangent of circle from specific point, sizes are not even important
they dont have function that automatically finds it
okay so you don't have any names
that's fine
i'll write O(x_0, y_0) for the center of the circle, A(x_1, y_1) for the red point, and r for the radius
if we write T for the point of contact, then we must have OT = r and angle ATO = 90°
so AT = sqrt(AO^2 - r^2) by the Pythagorean theorem
I am not sure if this is what you want to find exactly but, i think finding the Cartesian equation is what you are after. For that matter, let (xa,ya) be the coordinates of the red point A, and let (xo, yo) be the coordinates of the circle center O, and let P with coordinates (xp,yp) be the tangent point. So, finding the Cartesian equation of AP boils down to finding two things : a point that belongs to AP ( say A for example ) and a normal vector perpendicular to AP, which in this case is vector(OP) with coordinates (xp-xo = M, yp-yo = N). So the equation is : Mx + Ny + c = 0, and as A belongs to AP, so c = - ( Mxa + Nya ). And thus, (AP) : M(x-xa) + N(y-ya) = 0 where M = xp-xo and N = yp-yo
can you please explain how without cordinates?
Draw some lines and stuff
Quick question.
So we know with the trig identities that sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1
Considering that, would sin^2(2x) + cos^2(2x) = 1 work too?
well can you show me how?
this isnt really directly geometry, but lets say you have a hollowed sphere filled with a carbonated drink, will the sphere be strong from the inside? (I assume so)
