Oooo
If anyone is here for the question I asked earlier, this is kinda the follow up I guess
Hmm could you post the original if it's important?
how do I know whether I should do (2,3) - (1,5) or (1,5) - (2,3)
For the slope, it won't matter much. You will get the same slope either way
It was just about how to tell which point to minus which
Either through $\frac{5-3}{1-2}$ or $\frac{3-5}{2-1}$
but to get the vector?
VulcanOne
Ooo I remember it now
yee
idk how to make vectors in latex but it will be -2 over 1 vs 2 over -1 depending on which one I subtract from the other
$\begin{bmatrix}
-2 \
1
\end{bmatrix}$
VulcanOne
ye
that or the minus on the bottom
depending on which way I do it
so how can I tell which way to do it?
which is (a,b) and which is (c,d)?
Hmm
Usually there should be a phrase saying where it begins
Or where it ends
Because of this ambiguity
And I don't wanna make assumptions here but I guess it's safe to assume that the first point is the beginning
Ok
so the question is a mistake? Theyre always supposed to give us the direction?
A beginning or end, or they told you to assume that the first given point in order is the beginning
For the question you posted above, it's not a mistake since it doesn't deal with vectors
Are you sure? This whole chapter is on vectors...
It's a line that passes through those two points
Lines are infinite
All you need to do is to find the slope, and use point slope
hmm ok
weird that they would have a question not related to vectors in this section
Don't forget a vector has magnitude and direction
Well you can have eigenvectors, which are vectors that have the same direction but have different scales
I havent covered that yet haha
So expressing them by line is sometimes better
It's gonna be fun lol
ye I will do this
thank you so much for your help!

how would yall go about doing this one?
you can simplify by dividing both sides by 4. then notice that the arguments for both cos and sin are the same
$\tan(x) = \sin(x)/\cos(x)$

Is $\frac{2sin^2(\frac{x}{2})}{2cos^2(\frac{x}{2})} = 2tan^2(\frac{x}{2})$
ColdTee
Or $\frac{2sin^2(\frac{x}{2})}{2cos^2(\frac{x}{2})} = tan^2(\frac{x}{2})$
ColdTee
2's will cancel out
This one is correct then?
$\frac{2}{2}\cdot\frac{\sin²(x)}{\cos²(x)}$
haygiya
this one is correct
How did they $2tan^2(\frac{x}{2})$ to sec^2(x/2) - 1
ColdTee
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
What is that last one?
Is it from sec^2(x) - 1 = tan^2(x) cause i don't understand the inverse that the took
arctan x = secx?
this is wrong
what is the question
its tan(x/2) not 2tan(x/2)
Its the integration of 1 - cos(x)/ 1 + cos(x)
oh
so $\frac{1-\cos x}{1+\cos x}=\frac{2\sin^2\frac{x}{2}}{2\cos^2\frac{x}{2}}=\tan^2\frac{x}{2}=\sec^2\frac{x}{2}-1$
SilverSoldier
I didnt understand that they wrote 2tan^2(x/2) and from tan^-1x = sec(x) they wrote
Sec^2(x/2) - 1
these are all wrong

how does it go from step 1 to step 2?
well there is a trigometric identity that says 1 = sin^2 + cos^2
there is supposed to be a minus sign there?
i have to imagine so
ok, so just a missing minus sign
it would make it work
over here how would I convert it because nothing is squared
so I can't use an identity I think
i think its has to do with the unit circle
i dont believe an identity could help here
but i have no clue how to use the unit circle, its just my best guess so i cant really help
rip
for part a, I have to make it sin(80), but idk how to do that in terms of p
do you know identities sin(a+b) sin(a-b) cos(a+b) cos(a-b)
Assertion: If Product of two numbers is 2890 and their HCF is 17, then their LCM is 450.
Reason: LCM is always greater than HCF.
i think ur in the wrong channel
BRUH!
$1-cos^{2}(x) = sin^{2}(x)$
ayushch80
I know this
$1-cos^{2}(10) = sin^{2}(10)$
ayushch80
$cos^{2}(10) = p^2 -1$
ayushch80
$cos(10) = \sqrt{p^{2}-1}$
ayushch80
use this
so this is supposed to be $\sqrt{-p^2+1}$

this looks wrong, alpha/3 and beta/3 are the roots of the equation in terms of m
alpha/3 + beta/3 must equal the -(coefficient of x)/(coefficient of x^2) of ur equation in terms of m
(alpha + beta)/3 = -b/a from the quadratic formula. You forgot the minus sign and have the 3 in the wrong place
btw why r u calling the sum of roots POR and the product of roots SOR

how did they get the negative for the 2 cos 2(pi/2)?
Cos 2*π/2= cos π = -1
oh
do you have this memorized?
how were u able to just know it off the top of ur head
yeah but like dont you gotta go out of ur way to memorize them
You have to only memorize angles and their sines cosines, etc from 0 to π/2 rest can be calculated by imagining
im not quite sure what u meant by angles and their sines and cosines wdym by thay
What do you mean by this ?
Then
i was refering to something like this
Yes you will have to memorize it
so these are the values you were refering to? like memorize their angles and their sines and cosines?
Yes and by the help of these angles you can even find sin, cos of angles beyond this .Like 3π/4, 7π/6, etc.

How complex is to create an algorithm (or formula) which converts a real number (like 1.4142135623730951) into a fraction of integers or a fraction of integers and square roots?
(1.4142135623730951 = sqrt(2)/2 instead of 1.4142135623730951 = 70710678118655/500000000000000)?
(i know that 1.4142135623730951 is a real number but it could be approximated, i mean : 1.4142135623730951 is more 'equal' (is nearer) to sqrt(2)/2 than 70710678118655/500000000000000)
do you mean given a rounded real number find an irrational number that it could be?
i think he means that he's trying to find a formula or an algorithm that turns real numbers into a sequence of fractions.
Because in the exercise they said that y=tan*-1(x) soo when u replace it in the equation u get cos(tan*-1(x))=cos(y)
quantum isn't 1.4142135623720951 sqrt2 instead of sqrt(2)/2?
yea, sorry. I was thinking to an other problem while i as writing
is alright buddy
yea
anyways there are certain ways to approximate a real number
but it actually depends on the number
the original problem seems like the “opposite” of that?
yea i mean that also 1.41 is sqrt(2) (approximated)
i am looking for a formula which converts a number (could be 1.41 or 1.41142135) to it's fraction representation (in that case both 1.41 and 1.41142135 are approximable to sqrt(2))
there's exactly a formula i know
it's one of my favorites
By talking of math formulas i think that there is no one which converts both 1.41 and 1.41142135 to sqrt(2) but it could be possible to do with programming, for example :
if numerb_taken_in_input == 1.41 or number_taken_in_input == 1.41142135 then the number is sqrt(2)
yeah you're right
but the problem of this condition (don't take this example as programming question) is that also 1.411421 is sqrt(2)
so the solution would be to approximate every number inputted to a calculator with 2 digit number
what you could do is round up the number to let's say 3 digits, so 1.411421 to 1.41
and then say that if numerb_taken_in_input == 1.41 then the number is sqrt(2)
but to check which number correspond to 1.141421 the only solution should be to generate fractions until the fraction generated is approximated to that number, like :
Number = 1.4114
for each number in that range of numbers : 0-200:
if sqrt(number) == Number: the program is finished
i am talking too much about programming, but it's required to explain myself
oops
i mean that to get the fraction representation of a number taken in input from the user (like a calculator does) you should try to generate random fractions until you find the one which result is 1.4114 and that is not possible to do because this program would take much time
you got it?
yeah
but couldn't you say that you don't do an algorithm that does it from 0-200 but instead do it into a certain group of numbers, because you know 1,41 is between 1 and 2. that means that number that you're trying to find is a number somewhere between 1 and 4. that when sqrted becomes 1.41...
just try to see if the number have a Repeating decimal like for N digit
What do you mean?
he means a number like 0,25252525...
but how to know the right exponential
yeah but what if you got a nummber where if sqrt is still an irrational number?
but the problem persists if the number is not a square root, like sqrt(2)/2
yea
however, i am not here to find a formula for that. i was just curious if there is a known formula for it
(sqrt(2)/2)²=1/2 which is not an irrational number
Well, i don't think that a so complex algorithm can be created, because python algorithm returns 70710678118655/500000000000000 as the convertion in fractions of 1.41142135
i think the only formula i know is the infinite continued fraction.
isn't there the reverse formula of that?
Like getting sqrt(2) by knowing the result (1.4114)?
Mehdi_Moulati
you can't
the good new is
you don't need to
reason?
computers were made to approximate this stuff
the original problem was "how do we represent these real numbers in a manner that let us work with them and give use the results we want sufficiently accurately"
the reverse problem serves no purpose
also
there's no way to separate between sqrt(2)/2 and actually 70710678118655/500000000000000)
what if you wanted the latter?
maybe you'd say "I just need an answer that's close enough"
Yea
then 70710678118655/500000000000000 is close enough
better yet
1.4142135623730951 is close enough
Hmm what if we just simplify the fraction?
(or however the computer represents that in memory)
what
then you get 141421356237.../1000000000...
6/8 = 3/4
I don't know what that has to do with what I said
i guess he want to simplify the approximation of the sqrt
Because today's algorithms represent sqrt(2) with this fraction :
70710678118655/500000000000000
it does?
I see that both numbers can be divided for 2
the nominator is odd lel
what type of algorithms?
by 5 you meant?
Yea I am stupid
fractions.Fraction() function in python (idk algo name)
you can look at the reference to figure out how it works
doesn't python have a way to simplify fractions?
You might want to look at continued fractions, which provide a way to find the "best" fractions appoximating a given real, where "best" means that no other fraction with smaller denominator gets closer.
Thanks
This leads to successive "best" approximations for sqrt(2): 3/2, 7/5, 17/12, 41/29, ..., 22619537/15994428, ...

a
what is your problem?
hello
im a 7th grader and ijust came back from a math exam and there is this question
that is confusing all of my friends and family when i told them it
tell it please?
and i myself didnt figure it out
the tempature of mashhad is -3 celcius
the tempature of tehran is 4 degrees celcius less than tabriz
the tempature of tabriz is the average of tehran and mashhad - 5 degrees
what is the tempature of tabriz?
haha
we are learning about algebra and x and y and such things
wait is mashad -5 degrees or -3 degrees?
they didnt tell temp of mashhad
wait
no
they didnt tell temp of tabriz and tehran
mashhad -3
Worded weirdly
english is not my first language
and it was put weirdly in the exam aswell
its 5 less than the average of tehran + mashhad,
Wondering if it’s “[the average of tehran and mashhad] - 5 degrees” or “the average of tehran and [mashhad - 5 degrees]”
you pick 3 equations out of this :
a = tempMash = -3
y = tempTehran = TempTabriz - 4
x = tempTabriz = ((TempMash + TempTehran)/2) - 5
1st one
[tehran and mashhad] - 5 degrees
[tehran and mashhad] /2- 5 degrees
and you want to find temp tabriz right?
ok
in this case x = (-3 + x - 4)/2 -5
bruh how do you type so fast
i dont understand anything you guys are saying i just am extremely curious about the answer
💀
idk if you guys find the same
i got it
what is it??
shadow how do you type so fast lol
wait shadow you made a mistake
please ping me when you find the answer
old on
yeah
mb
in this case x = (-3 + x - 4)/2 -5
so if i pick the x/2 out it's 1/2*x = -17/2
x = -17
exactly
does that sound right to any other helpers ?
and then you know that Tehran temp = -21
there
Tabriz's temperature is -17
x = -17?
maybe put x as temp tabriz
oh
x is tabriz's temp
yes

I wanted to know if there are any distinct non-zero integers a, b, c such that this expression is also an integer.
can't just you kick the square roots out ?
easy say that a=1 , b=1 and c=1
then it's equal to 1
Distinct integers
you can't this is a sum not a multiplication

Kick?
but if you go ^2 on both sides
it's still the same

both being 1, 2 etc
you get it ?
No
if you pick all of them with the same value you can have IN solutions
you want distinct a, b, c such that sqrt( (a^2+b^2+c^2)/3) is an integer, yes?
Yes
But they'll not be distinct
Also I don't know if that's even possible, I just made that up on my own
So if not, is there a way to prove that it's not possible
do a, b and c have to be integers?
Yes
wait shit
that's right
Result:
25
3 should be in root
yes
sqrt(75)/sqrt(3)=5
,calc sqrt(1^2+5^2+7^2)/sqrt(3)
Result:
5
there you go
here you go

The answer is a, but im getting b
Yes the given answer is correct
Please tell how are you getting b
The unit of time in graph is ms
It's wrong a is not equal to v/t it's equal to dv /dt
You will have to calculate the area of graph
F=mdv/dt
mdv=F dt
Integrate put respective limits m=1 here
v= area of graph( velocity at any instant is the area till that time)
at t=0 v=0
Now simply calculate the area till 0.2 seconds using 1/2 base* height
You will get 8m /s
Velocity
idk what the limits are bro
is it 0 & 200
m is outside the intrgral, right?
Yes you can take it out as it's a constant
And moreover it's value is 1
Integral of Fdt will give you area of the graph
So in other words you have to simply calculate the area
Making sure time is in seconds
1/2*80×0.2= 8m/s
ok sure but when i input everything i still get 16
.
ok but how does an integral give me the 1/2??
It is the area of graph Fvs T
Integral Of Fdt means area of F vs T graph
Between respective limits
i get that
but when you actually write the integral and do everything
there is no 1/2
1/2 is coming because I am calculating the area of traingle in graph
We already figured out that v will be equal to area till 0.2 s
So now time to calculate area
Integration was just to show that area=v
If we were given relation between F and t then we could have directly solved through integration
But here there is no relationship between F and T
So we have to rely on graph
As the meaning of integral Fdt is the area covered by curve between the respective limits
If you read properly these things must have been mentioned in your text book , proof may not be though
But it must be there in some form of statement

@bright remnant Has your question been resolved?
What doubt do u have boi
I wrote a whole long Paras while explaining
Just ask in which part are you facing problem
@bright remnant
im sorry but im extremely busy with something
thats critical to me at the moment
would you mind showing some working out?
with the integration and stuff
i get that you have to find the area and that u use calculus
Ok i am sending you pics in your dm
I just want to be able to apply this in any situation

hi, i don't understand this step which i marked with a red arrow. From my understanding this will be used the chain rule to show that f(x) =ax^n -> it's derivation f'(x anx^(n-1) os valid for real numbers. What i don't understand is how a*1/q arises.
It's just the power rule for derivatives, since 1/q is rational
Did they prove that x^{1/q} differentiates to (1/q)*x^{1/q - 1} before that point? If so that’s just chain rule
Oh, they're differentiating a function with a rational power
So 1/q being rational doesn't really matter lol
Yeah my reading of OP’s post is that they start with it for n being natural/integer and then work from there to get it for all real numbers(?)

do you mean this?
Hmmm not quite - that seems to be proving for integers given it being true for naturals
Does anything come after that but before your one here?
If you give me a second, I’ll typeset what I was expecting to see
@misty oak Has your question been resolved?
Set $f(x) = x = x^{\frac{q}{q}} = \left( x^{1/q} \right)^{q}$ for some integer $q$
Then $f'(x) = 1$, but also $f'(x) = q \left( x^{1/q} \right)^{q - 1} \left(\dv{}{x} x^{1/q} \right)$ by chain rule and what we already know
Simplify and equate, you have $1 = q x^{1 - \frac{1}{q}} \left(\dv{}{x} x^{1/q} \right)$, therefore $\dv{}{x} x^{1/q} = \frac{1}{q x^{1 - \frac{1}{q}} } = \frac{1}{q} x^{\frac{1}{q} - 1}$

Hi, I need to determine the intervals of monotonicity and extremum of the function
idk if there are any formulas or barely know anything about this topic due to the fact that I was too sick to attend my classes, can anyone help
It's just asking you to determine the sign of the first derivative
oh, didnt know that, so it will be 3x^2-4, right?
Yep
and from where do I get the sign of it
the original question is to determine the intervals of monotonicity and extremum of the function (question is in polish so i just translated it, hope i did it right)
Monotonicity hmm
Well extremum is easy
You determine when the derivative is 0
And see what x makes the derivative = 0
so i got x=-2sqr3/3 or x=2sqr3/3
Hmm I now understand monotonicity
Ok so you determine if the derivative gives negative values or not
how do i know that? cause one of my x is negative and the other one is not
Nope not like that
It's gonna be quickest with a graphing calculator
But I don't think it is allowed
So an easy way to check is you pick an x value between your critical points (x values that make the derivative = 0)
so can I pick 1 for example?
cause i think my critical points are these and they equal -1.15 and 1.15
okay and what do i do with that 1
Try it on your derivative
i got -1
If it gave you a negative, then it is decreasing in the interval between the critical points
Yep decreasing function at the interval -1.15<= x <= 1.15
can i write it like this? f(x)(arrow down) x=(-2sqr3/3;2sqr3/3)
$x \in (-2\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}, 2\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3})$
VulcanOne
With the f(x) arrow down
Or you can write decreasing when $x \in (-2\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}, 2\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3})$
VulcanOne
ohhh, ok, and it will be rising from -infinity to the -2sqr3/3 and from 2sqr3/3 to +inf?
And increasing when $x \in (-\infty , -2\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}) \cup (2\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3} , \infty)$
Yep
ohh, okok, and what will be the extremum of the function
Evaluate the original function at the critical points you got
You'll get your y values
Use them to label the points as maxima and minima
$\cup, \bigcup$
riemann
so i need to put 2sqr3/3 into my first function?
VulcanOne
Tysm 
Yep both the (2sqrt(3))/3 and it's negative counterpart
and do i need to put it exactly or can i put 1.15?
Well does the question accept approximation?
Wait
You can store the value of (2sqrt(3))/3 into a letter
Let's say A
And plug in A instead of (2sqrt(3))/3
so i got -16sqr3/9 +5 and 16sqr/9+5
So 8.079 and 1.92?
wait, the second one is 16sqr3/9 +5
yeah i got this
Okay
Okay
Now you have
(-1.15, 8.079) as a maximum and (1.15, 1.92) as a minimum right?
they can be wrong tho cause he makes a lot of mistakes
yeah i also think i am right
so i will try to make the second question and will text in few min, will it be alright?
Sure
@south timber Has your question been resolved?
k, so i got it i think
so i got y(arrow up) if x=(-2,0) and y(arrow down) if x=(-inf,-2)u(0,inf) (not including -1, cause x =/=-1)
and fmax=0 and fmin=-4
The increasing part is actually 2 intervals
And (-2, 0) is not the interval
You have to consider also that there might be discontinuities
Like at x=-1
Which will make the function become undefined
oh, didnt know that
oh, so the lim for x-->-1 (-)?
Yeah
and do i do that for the frst function?
or for the derivative
k, so to which point is this done good and from where is it bad
Your increasing and decreasing
and are the extremum also bad?
They aren't, but they are switched
The minimum you wrote is the max
And the maximum you wrote is the min
oh, and how do i know which one is min and which is max
You check your decreasing and increasing intervals
Like (-inf, -2), the derivative gives you positive numbers
Then at (-2, 0), -{-1}, it gives you negative numbers
And (0, inf), it gives positive numbers
ohhh, k i know where i did wrong, thank you

so from limes i got -inf and inf
limes?
lim
vulcan i find it strange that you're helping someone with math while listening to fnaf 1 ambience
we call it limes at my college classes, is it wrong?
I'm listening literally now to fnaf music also, so respect
I wanna get into a certain mood to feel the need to study
Lol
I was listening to REPULSIVE - 1908 (Vol. II) and it evolved from there 
But ngl, FNAF ambience makes me feel serious
it's the intense music keeping you up
so what do i do with my limits?
What did you get for the limits
?
Wait
i got inf and -inf
That's in the original function?
yeah
Hmm
Well true
But
I think I messed up
You should use the limit in the derivative

This means that your function is decreasing
in -1?
In the region around -1
It tells you that x = -2 is a transition point from an increase to a decrease
And x =0 is a transition point from a decrease to an increase
Yep
so wait
ill try to write it
so i got y(arrow up) if x=(-inf,-2)u(0,inf) and y(arrow down) if x=(-2,-1)u(-1,0)
yes?
Yep
Oki
k, so i got my derivative and its e^x+xe^x
and my x's are x1=do not exist and x2=-1
and what now
Wait you take the limit to check which x will make e^x = 0
it does?
Yeah
idk really what it is but yeah, keep going
VulcanOne
ok
Check for each interval
and i need to know which decrease and which increase?
And see if you have a maximum or not
Yep
so i need to put -1 in the place of x?
That will give you the extreme
and do i put it in the first function or derivative
Where do you find the maximum y and minimum y?
literally have no idea
That finds you the minimum/maximum
so i get 1/e?
-1/e yeah
Oki ^-^
and thats my max?
Now we wanna know if -1/e is a minimum or a maximum.
yeah
We check the intervals and plug a value in between them inside the derivative
To know where the increase is and the decrease is
literal magic words
Like a number between (-inf, -1) and see if it gives a positive or a negative
like 0?
Same thing for a number between (-1, inf)
0 is between (-1, inf)
and i put it in derivative, right?
Yeah
i got 1
So the interval (-1, inf) is increasing
ohh, and the -inf,-1 will be decreasing?
Yeah if you tried it, it will give a negative
and what will be my min
Any transition point from a decrease to an increase
Your x=-1
On its left, is it increase or decrease?
decrease
And on its right?
increase
Why?
Correct
cause its on the bottom
It's a minimum
but yeah, its min cause its on the bottom
Which means that it is the point which makes the function go from decrease to increase
yeah
-1,inf
-inf,-1
yes yes
know its time for the d)
now
k my dude cause its literally 23;00, imma head to sleep, but thank yoou for your help, hope your pillow is cold on both sides

i wouldn't do it that way
when you find $\tan(3 \theta + 20) = \sqrt{3}/3$, use the periodicity of tangent
riemann
yeah which is 30
that's not the periodicity
whats periodicity
$\tan(x + \pi) = \tan(x)$ for all $x$ in the domain of tangent
riemann
,w plot tan(x) for pi/2 < x < 7pi/2
,w plot tan(x) for 0 < x < 3pi
what would you do next
$\tan(x + n \pi) = \tan(x)$ for any integer $n$ and $x$ in the domain of tangent
riemann
when you find $\tan(3 \theta + 20) = \sqrt{3}/3$, instead of just $3 \theta + 20 = 30$, you need to add $n \cdot 180$ to the right side
riemann
$3 \theta + 20 = 30 + n \cdot 180$
riemann
3?
what is your question
3 values
what are they?
one second
you can just check them by plugging it in
whatever theta you find, verify it by calculating tan(3 theta + 20) and see if you get sqrt(3)/3
.
your limits being 0 <= theta <= 180

Just a general question guys, i am just not 100% sure of this but if the denominator of a said function is just a number(never 0), can we be 100% sure that the graph has no vertical asymptote
If the numerator has none too yes
excuse me but, wdym?
$\frac{x^2-1}{x-1}$
riemann
at first glance, you would think there's an asymptote at x-1=0, or x=1
but there isn't because $x^2 - 1 = (x-1)(x+1)$
riemann
so a factor cancels and the fraction simplifies to x+1
Exactly so, if we put a function in its most simplified form to where it doesn't have a denominator, we can be 100% sure that the function lacks a vertical asymptot right?

I'm not clear on whether or not the default unit is angle or radians when using the Microsoft .NET 7 System.Math static type functions in PowerShell 7.2.8. Does anybody know?
I did, I used Microsoft's PowerShell 7.2.8 and then I used their calculator's "sin" button on a 45 degree angle. They didn't match up. So, I'm confused.
so what did sin(45) give?
0.850903524534118
thats radians
Ah, okay, I'm not to that in trigonometry just yet. I wonder if I can flip a switch to have it do degrees for me.
I'll look, at least you confirmed it's giving answers back in radians. I figured something was up when they didn't match right.
Thank You

would anyone kindly help me w this qstn pls ?
it looks as though it's a simul eqn at first but I don't think it is
calculus?
Ask yourself this question
Which point must always be on the line mx-y-2=0 regardless of m?
is there such point?
yes
(0,-2)
yes
Now, for some point (x0, y0) on the circle, consider what the equation of its tangent line must be
Then, that tangent line must go through (0, -2)
does "touches" mean tangent?
yes
this is the closest page I can find in the textbook
do u know the formula fr the distance from a point to a straight line
not sure what the difference is tbh
between algebra and calculus?
yes
I would assume something to do with finding the line's perpendicular but I'm not sure what the formula is
yes
do u know how to find the perpendicular of a line?
so if u have a line ax+by+c=0, the distance to the line from the point (p, q) is
$\frac{|ap+bq+c|}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}$
SilverSoldier
y' = (2x)^(1/2) ?
I know how to find the derivative of simpler expressions but not sqrt over two terms
