@hybrid mountain Has your question been resolved?

hybrid mountain
#

No I still need help

#

<@&286206848099549185>

versed lark
#

ok

#

first find where the function is indeterminate

hybrid mountain
#

Ok

versed lark
#

in those points are the asymptotes

hybrid mountain
#

It might take me a bit I’m new to this

versed lark
#

just in ordet to help

#

csc(3x)=1/sin(3x)

#

so you have to find the points where sin(3x)=0

grave basin
#

You can also just transform the parent function, csc(x)

versed lark
#

yea

glacial fossil
#

Hello can I get help with this trigonometry question please

limpid heart
#

sketching it out always helps

glacial fossil
#

Yeah but Im just confused on what to even do Im sorry

limpid heart
#

its asking for the distance traveled to reach its highest point

cerulean zealot
#

?

shrewd prism
#

Yes!!

glacial fossil
#

so I should use Sine ?

shrewd prism
sour mica
#

wait what? since when is projectile motion not parabolic?

cerulean zealot
#

discurs travelled hypotenuse or horizontally?

sour mica
#

What grade of studies are you in rn?

shrewd prism
#

They would have to give the equation if it wasn’t a straight line

glacial fossil
sour mica
#

So you should use equations of motion to find the path.

#

Use this kind of stuff, with gravity and everything

glacial fossil
sour mica
#

ffs, idek what kind of person designed this question then

glacial fossil
#

Thank you everyone I figured out the answer.

glacial fossil
sour mica

modern skiff
#

u can find the value of simx+sin^3x and use it maybe

timber nimbus
#

yeah but how

#

i got cos^2 x interms if sin

#

but i need integer vaues

mossy jasper
#

Have you tried taking a factor of sin(x) for the first one?

#

Since the sin^3(x) is the tricky part to get in terms of cos

#

sin(x)(1 + 3sin(x) + sin^2(x) )= 3 maybe?

timber nimbus
#

ya did that

#

cos^2 x is still in terms of sin^2 x

mossy jasper
#

Do you know your double angle formulas?

#

If so, you can use them to sort it

nimble fern
nimble fern
mossy jasper
#

Actually, hold on, wait a minute, there's a way simpler method I think

#

Are you allowed to use a calculator?

timber nimbus
#

nope

mossy jasper
#

Ah, that's sad

timber nimbus
#

thast what i come to

proven depot
#

sinx(1+sin^2(x))

#

convert to cos

timber nimbus
#

uhhh

#

how

#

using what identity?

proven depot
#

sin^2(x) = 1-cos^2(x)

timber nimbus
#

okk

#

done

proven depot
#

square both sides

#

then simplify

proven depot
timber nimbus
#

cos^2 x comes out to be (-3 + 5 root3)/16, (-3 - 5 root3)/16

proven depot
#

we have this

timber nimbus
#

yup

proven depot
#

square both sides

timber nimbus
#

squared both sides

#

substitutes sin^2 x

#

ooh

#

i forgot a step

proven depot
#

I'm squaring bc I want to convert everything in the equation in terms of cos

timber nimbus
#

kk

#

ok

#

simplified tuns out to be

timber nimbus
#

8cos^4 x -3cos^6 x -4 = 0

proven depot
#

no

#

do you get this

#

focus on LHS

timber nimbus
#

yes and then write sin^2 x = 1-cos^2 x

proven depot
#

yea

timber nimbus
#

then multiply and simplify

proven depot
#

yea

#

then you would get this, maybe some mistake in multiplication

#

simplify RHS and send LHS terms to RHS except the 4

#

send me a pic of what you have done

timber nimbus
#

dont have a phone rn

proven depot
#

oh

timber nimbus
#

and my working is too messy

proven depot
#

multiplication mistake then

timber nimbus
#

i doont get it sometimes 🥲

timber nimbus
#

ima do again

#

i got that aort written dowm

proven depot
#

goodluck

proven depot
#

you RHS

#

simplify those

#

and also send all terms to RHS except the 4

timber nimbus
#

4 = 8cos^2 x - 3cos^6 x +4cos^4x

proven depot
timber nimbus
#

😢

proven depot
timber nimbus
#

okk

proven depot
#

^ thats the final answer

timber nimbus
#

multiplication mistake

proven depot
#

yea

timber nimbus
#

i really need to atart working neatly

#

ty

#

oh and

#

if i need ot ask another q do i opena new channel or just post here as a folow up

proven depot
#

if you have the question now you can ask it here

#

if you want to ask it later then close

timber nimbus
#

right

#

its another one with algebraic manipulation

#

but i cant seem to get it as one of the options

proven depot
#

you may post it here and wait

#

because I gotta go rn

strange edge
#

I am working on proof with epsilon-delta definition. And the specific case that I am stuck with is to proof lim(x->2) x^2 = 5 is false. When x^2 = 4 I can factor it to (x+2)(x-2) but in this case I can't. Other solution I got from the internet is by providing a value of epsilon which makes the statement fail, but I don't really get how they get those epsilon values.

cerulean zealot
#

what about (x+sqrt5)(x-sqrt5)

strange edge
#

It wouldn't work since it has to be related with 0 < | x - 2 | < delta

tardy stag
#

hmm what if you wrote down x² - 4 - 1

strange edge
#

That is what I tried but it was a mess when I got into absolute values

tardy stag
#

what are you trying to show?

strange edge
#

I am trying to show that lim(x->2) x^2 = 5 is false by using the definition of limit

tardy stag
#

okay

#

what does that mean though

#

what does "lim{x -> 2} x² ≠ 5" mean?

strange edge
#

By definition I believe its
for all epsilon > 0 there exist delta > 0 such that 0 < | x - 2 | < delta does not imply | x² - 5 | < epsilon

tardy stag
#

hmm that doesn't seem right

strange edge
#

How?

tardy stag
#

that's not how you negate qualifiers

strange edge
#

Oh wait

#

for atleast epsilon > 0 there does not exist delta > 0 such that 0 < | x - 2 | < delta implies | x² - 5 | < epsilon

#

Is this better?

tardy stag
#

the qualifiers can be kind of a mess but consider the intuitive idea: you can show that no matter how tight of a circle you draw around x=2, you can find points inside that circle where f(p) is nowhere near 5

tardy stag
strange edge
#

Oh

tardy stag
#

"as you get closer to x=2, you don't get closer to f(x)=5"

cerulean zealot
#

i never understood these epsilon deltha thing....

strange edge
#

Then how am I suppose to find the ε

tardy stag
#

well, it may help to look at a graph

strange edge
#

ok I will give it a try

#

Oh

#

Is it anything smaller than 1?

tardy stag
#

i think that would work!

#

you don't need to describe every answer though, one example is good enough

strange edge
#

Okay I think I get it now

Thank you for your help

hot needle
#

yo how to calculate such an integral

#

$\int {\frac{\ln(x)}{x}}dx$

lone heartBOT
hot needle
#

do i have to use this formula?

#

$\int {u'v}=\left[uv\right]-\int {uv'}$

ocean sealBOT
cedar juniper
#

Whats the derivative of lnx?

ocean sealBOT
hot needle
cedar juniper
#

What would happen if you sub ln x as u

hot needle
#

huh

#

u/e^u?

dim garnet
#

Write it as $\int \ln(x) \cdot \frac{1}{x} \cdot dx$

ocean sealBOT
#

DeadTomato

hot needle
#

$\int {u'v}=\left[uv\right]-\int {uv'}$

ocean sealBOT
dim garnet
#

no

hot needle
#

oh i get it

dim garnet
#

But you have ln multiplied by its derivative

hot needle
#

$\int u \cdot u' \cdot dx$

ocean sealBOT
hot needle
#

like that?

#

or

cedar juniper
#

Yea

hot needle
#

alright

#

and what next

cedar juniper
#

Then its basically the integral of $\int u \cdot du$

ocean sealBOT
#

Adarsh

hot needle
#

so it's integral of ln(x)?

#

which is ln(x)²/2?

#

wait no

dim garnet
hot needle
#

🤦🏻‍♂️

dim garnet
#

It’s integral of u

cedar juniper
hot needle
dim garnet
hot needle
#

cuz then u get u²/2

#

and since u is ln(x)

#

u just replace

cedar juniper
#

Yup

hot needle
#

yeah i got it thanksssssssssssss

cedar juniper
#

One more thing

hot needle
#

i mean i get it but idk how to say it

hot needle
cedar juniper
#

Use it only if you have to

hot needle
#

why so

cedar juniper
#

Cause its usually lenghty

dim garnet
#

I mean you can use by parts here I think

cedar juniper
#

Yea ig

#

Take lnx as v

#

Anyway u substitution works best here

hot needle

alright thanks

cerulean grove
#

If f(x)<a for all x then lim f(x)<a ?

lone heartBOT
fickle heath
#

"lim f(x)" doesn't mean much, you need to specify the limit point

#

If you include lim_{x -> inf} f(x), then no

cerulean grove
fickle heath
#

Well basically it depends what you include in "for all x"

#

You can't just say "for all x", you need a set

#

If you mean "for all x in R", then +inf and -inf aren't in R

#

If your function's domain does not include 0, but for all x =/= 0 (in R) f(x) < a, then the limit at 0 can still equal a

fickle heath
ocean sealBOT
fickle heath
#

but arctan(x) < pi/2 for all x in R

cerulean grove
#

@fickle heath what about at x->0?

fickle heath
#

-x^3/x < 0 for all x in its domain (R without 0), but the limit at 0 is 0

cerulean grove
#

-x^3/x ?

fickle heath
#

Yes

cerulean grove
#

-x^2 you mean?

fickle heath
#

-x^2 except not defined at 0

cerulean grove
fickle heath
#

Well you could build a function to disprove it entirely

#

f(x) = {x=0: -1, -x^2}

#

(-1 at 0 but -x^2 everywhere else)

#

This is < 0 everywhere (and the domain is R)

#

Yet the limit at 0 is still 0

#

This is a case where the limit does not equal the value at that point (discontinuity)

#

If you specify that f must be continuous, then I don't think you can build a counterexample

#

In other words, if f is continuous on R and f(x) < a for all x in R, then for any l in R, lim{x -> l} f(x) < a, simply because lim{x -> l} f(x) = f(x)

#

Note that l cannot be +inf or -inf here

#

However you can easily build a non-continuous function for which that isn't true

cerulean grove
fickle heath
#

?

#

The limit of -x^2 at 0 is 0

#

Yeah

#

Limits care about neighborhoods

#

which is why you can have a limit at a point where the function is not even defined

cerulean grove
#

Why is it 0?

fickle heath
#

I don't know where you got that from

cerulean grove
#

Isn't that this?

#

Then how did you get the limit at 0 without using this?

fickle heath
#

This is the definition of the derivative

#

It uses a limit, it isn't the definition of the limit...

i don't understand how like

|a| - |x| <= |a-x| = |a-x| < |a|/2

|a| - |a|/2 <= |x|

i don't understand how there is = ?

#

isn't |a|/2 came to left from < |a|/2

lavish cave
# alpine sable

this makes sense if you know the concept of absolute value as a distance

#

so |x - a| < |a|/2 means that x is less than |a|/2 away from a

alpine sable
#

yes

lavish cave
#

exactly |a|/2 away from a will be

alpine sable
#

know about that

lavish cave
#

$|a| - |a|/2$ or $|a| + |a|/2$

ocean sealBOT
#

south's secret twin brother

lavish cave
#

and it's in between

#

btw this technique gets used all the time

alpine sable
lavish cave
#

yeah just keep practicing

alpine sable
lavish cave
alpine sable
#

😭

lavish cave
#

actually that implies x < c

alpine sable
#

💀

lavish cave
#

say 3 <= 3 < 3.1

alpine sable
#

oh

#

lmao

#

|a| - |x| <= |a-x| = |a-x| < |a|/2

im still not getting how

#

|a| - |x| <= |a|/2

#

isn't the inequality should be

#

just <

alpine sable
#

how there is that =

#

even if u take the upper bound of |a-x| thats just gonna remove the equality sign from the inequality

#

|a| - |x| <= |a-x|

|a-x| < |a|/2

|a|-|x| < |a|/2

lavish cave
alpine sable
#

yeahh

#

right

lavish cave
#

the normal triangle inequality has <= (= is for a degenerate triangle)
so the reverse also must have <=

#

or >=

alpine sable
#

no no

#

i meant

#

now if u know the maximum value of |a-x| which is |a|/2 and u replace |a-x| with it in this case >= should become

#

just >

guys I'm stuck on this one exercise, it says that function f is defined on R except Pi, and i need to prove that it's extendable by continuity to Pi, and the fact that it's a function with trigonometric functions makes it even worse, can I get some help with it?

alpine sable
#

show the problem

earnest chasm
#

f\left(x\right)=\frac{x\sin\left(x\right)-\cos\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)}{x-\pi}

dusk depot
#

put $ around it

#

$f\left(x\right)=\frac{x\sin\left(x\right)-\cos\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)}{x-\pi}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Merosity

earnest chasm
#

yeah that one

#

so pls can I get some help defining the limit on Pi

#

if u do it in a direct manner, it turns out as undefined value (obv)

sterile trench
#

L' Hospital allowed?

earnest chasm
#

it looks ez but made me suffer

#

and yes l'hopital allowed

sterile trench
#

since its 0/0 form

#

apply LH

#

LH = L Hospital

earnest chasm
sterile trench
#

oh

#

differentiate numerator

dire cloak
#

wsg guys wats the Q

sterile trench
#

and differentiate denominator

earnest chasm
earnest chasm
#

splitting the limit, conjugue, denominator changing, value changing, trigo properties

#

nothing worked

dusk depot
earnest chasm
#

$lim\ \frac{x\ \sin\left(x\right)}{x-\pi}-\frac{\cos\left(\frac{x}{2}\right)}{x-\pi}$

ocean sealBOT
#

YassTheLion

earnest chasm
#

I tried splitting it as I said

#

but still can't see any obvious property to simplify the function

dusk depot
#

don't split them, just take the derivative of the numerator and denominator

sterile trench
#

he meant show your work where you tried to use LH

earnest chasm
#

so as we said we'll take x-Pi as f(x) and the numerator as g(x)

#

and we'll take the g'(x) and f'(x) and calc their division

#

right?

#

but I'm not sure if we got the right to use the Derivative of the COS and SIN functions...

alpine sable
#

are u allowed to use equivalent ?

#

and do u know the answer ?

earnest chasm
earnest chasm
alpine sable
#

i get (1-2 pi)/2 but not sure tho

earnest chasm
#

it says "define the continuity extension in Pi"

earnest chasm
alpine sable
#

?

earnest chasm
#

pls can u show me how u did it?

#

just lightly explain

#

if u don't mind ofc

alpine sable
#

i did h= x-pi

earnest chasm
#

okay value changed

alpine sable
#

and used formula to make appear sin(h/2)

#

and with the equivalence of sin, the h simplify

sterile trench
#

i am getting 1/2-pi

earnest chasm
#

formula being 1-cos(x) divided by x?

alpine sable
#

but i need to verify i did fast

alpine sable
#

cos(a+b) and sin(2x)

#

im checking ill be slower

earnest chasm
alpine sable
#

no

earnest chasm
#

wait I changed the value to h but still didn't see a way to apply the formula of sin(a+b) as sin(h+Pi)

alpine sable
#

imma send a pic

earnest chasm
#

thanks so much man

alpine sable
#

sin(h+pi) = -sin(h)

earnest chasm
#

and how exactly did u manage to make the sin(h/2) appear?

#

wait so we take sin(h)/h=1 and we're left with the other stuff?

alpine sable
#

ok

#

,rotate

ocean sealBOT
alpine sable
#

do u agree @earnest chasm ?

earnest chasm
#

yes i checked and it's correct

#

damn dude I can't tell u how grateful I am

earnest chasm
#

thank*

alpine sable
#

np ive had the same experience ik how it is

earnest chasm
#

will it be the same even after using LH?

alpine sable
#

idk i never used lh

earnest chasm
alpine sable
#

im 19

earnest chasm
#

so I'm yass and I'm 17, it was very nice meeting u brother

alpine sable

told u i had luck here

#

whats the Q

craggy idol
#

, \frac {p} {k}

#

bruh how we write it

#

How do we prove ((k-1)! / (k - 1 + p )! ) - ((k)!/(k+p)!) = p*((k-1)!(k+p)!)

#

idk how to put it in latex

waxen flame
#

Use the $ to indicate the beginning and end of a Latex command.

#

$\frac{p}{k}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Kookiemon

craggy idol
#

oooh

#

okay

waxen flame
craggy idol
ocean sealBOT
#

Alozens

craggy idol
#

so i need to prove this

#

and I don't know how to do that

#

One of my classmate recommendd me to use binomial coefficient but I still don't get it

tight marten
craggy idol
#

yeah

#

so that would mean uh

#

multiplying the two other fraction with k-1 ?

tight marten
#

why k-1

craggy idol
tight marten
#

what is (n+1)! in terms of n!

#

or perhaps phrased better can you think of a relation between these two things

craggy idol
#

is it (n+1)n!

tight marten
#

yes

craggy idol
#

we learned that in class yea

tight marten
#

so what is (k+p)! in terms of (k+p-1)!

craggy idol
#

hmm

tight marten
#

how about this first

#

n! in terms of (n-1)!

tight marten
craggy idol
#

then i assume it's (n-1)n!

tight marten
#

not quite

#

we want n! = something

craggy idol
#

so would it be (n-1)! = n!/n ?

tight marten
#

yes !

craggy idol
#

i see

tight marten
#

you can see this with (n+1)! = (n+1) n! and set n = m - 1

#

that gives m! = m (m-1)!

tight marten
craggy idol
#

yes

tight marten
#

ok so far ?

craggy idol
#

yeah

tight marten
#

cool

#

now how about (k+p)! = something with (k+p-1)!

craggy idol
#

so then we have (k+p-1)! = (k+p)! / (n + p)
therefore (k +p)! = (n + p)* (k +p-1)! ?

tight marten
#

if by n you mean k yes

craggy idol
#

well i thought k would then become n because it's product from k to n

#

we remove biggest value

tight marten
#

huh ?

#

there is no n involved in either the expression (k+p)! or (k+p-1)!

craggy idol
#

oh

#

right

#

so that means we get (k + p)! = (k + p)*(k + p -1)!

tight marten
#

perfect

tight marten
craggy idol
#

so then we get $\frac{(k-1)!} { (k - 1 + p )! }$ - $\frac { (k)!} {(k+p)(k+p-1)! }$ = p* $\frac {(k-1)!} {(k+p)(k+p-1)! }$

ocean sealBOT
#

Alozens

tight marten
#

its going to be easier to focus on the first fraction

#

getting its denominator to be (k+p)!

craggy idol
#

ooh

#

okay

tight marten
#

also you can ignore this part

#

that is our end goal

craggy idol
#

yes that's true

#

so then we get $\frac{(k+p)!(k-1)!} { (k + p )! }$ - $\frac { (k)!} {(k+p)! }$

ocean sealBOT
#

Alozens

tight marten
#

not quite

craggy idol
#

oh yeah there no factorial

tight marten
#

yep

craggy idol
#

so then we get $\frac{(k+p)(k-1)!} { (k + p )! }$ - $\frac { (k)!} {(k+p)! }$

ocean sealBOT
#

Alozens

tight marten
#

nice

#

now you can write them all on one denominator

craggy idol
#

yes

tight marten
#

also you dont need the brackets around k, you can just write k!

#

its not wrong just not needed

craggy idol
#

$\frac{(k+p)!(k-1)! - k!} { (k + p )! }$

#

okey

ocean sealBOT
#

Alozens

craggy idol
#

so then we get this right

tight marten
#

drop that factorial on the top and yep !

craggy idol
#

oooh i see

#

$(k-1)! - k!$

#

oh wait

#

i got it wrong

tight marten
#

no you cant do that

craggy idol
#

yea

tight marten
#

i just mean (k+p) on the top instead of (k+p)!

tight marten
craggy idol
ocean sealBOT
#

Alozens

craggy idol
#

so this ?

tight marten
#

bingo

#

now we're almost done

craggy idol
#

nice

tight marten
#

k! = ?? in terms of (k-1)!

craggy idol
#

so (k-1)! = k! / k
Therefore k! = k(k-1)!

tight marten
#

yep

#

how substitute that in for k!

#

now*

craggy idol
#

$\frac{(k+p)(k-1)! - k(k-1)!} { (k + p )! }$

ocean sealBOT
#

Alozens

tight marten
#

yep

craggy idol
#

oooh i think i see now

tight marten
#

do you see how this simplifies

#

nice

craggy idol
#

yes

#

so we develop and we remove the k(k-1)! with -k(k-1)!

tight marten
#

yes

craggy idol
#

ooh damn

#

$\frac{p(k-1)!} { (k + p )! }$

ocean sealBOT
#

Alozens

craggy idol
#

we end up with this

tight marten
#

\begin{align*}
\frac{(k-1)!}{(k+p-1)!} - \frac{k!}{(k+p)!} &= \frac{(k-1)!}{(k+p-1)!} \cdot \frac{k+p}{k+p} - \frac{k!}{(k+p)!} \
&= \frac{(k+p)(k-1)!}{(k+p)(k+p-1)!} - \frac{k!}{(k+p)!} \
&= \frac{(k+p)(k-1)!}{(k+p)!} - \frac{k!}{(k+p)!} \
&= \frac{(k+p)(k-1)! - k!}{(k+p)!} \
&= \frac{(k+p)(k-1)! - k(k-1)!}{(k+p)!} \
&= \frac{(k+p-k)(k-1)!}{(k+p)!} \
&= p \cdot \frac{(k-1)!}{(k+p)!}
\end{align*}

drifting seal
#

Quick question:
Is there any general method to find the formula of a series?

alpine sable
#

what's the "formula of a series"?

drifting seal
#

Or I should say the 'general form'

#

E.g. 1 + x + x^2 + x ^3 + ... = 1 / (1-x)

drifting seal
#

oh...

subtle birch
#

however, you can be limited to a certain type of series

#

are you asking this question from curiosity or are you learning about them

#

beneficial to give more context

drifting seal
#

I want to learn more about how to turn a series into a formula

subtle birch
#

how far you wanna go

drifting seal
#

into analytic continuation or maybe that's another story, lol

subtle birch
#

for example cosx is 1-x^2/2!+x^4/4!....

drifting seal
#

how about some polynomials?

drifting seal
subtle birch
drifting seal
subtle birch
drifting seal
#

with only a single term

#

'series' = 'a single term'

subtle birch
drifting seal
#

ye

subtle birch
#

anyways

#

you can try to evaluate the following

#

x+2x^2+3x^3+4x^4...

subtle birch
#

I reckon you are interested in these so called AGPs

#

arithmetico geometric progression

drifting seal
#

oh

subtle birch
#

the general idea for such series is to multiply the sum by the common ratio and then subtract it from the original series term by term excluding the first term of the original series. so a1-A2, a2-A3 and so on where a_i represents the original series and A_i represents the new series

pliant estuary
#

proof, that if m < n and matrix A has a full rank, the system of equations has infinitely many solutions

pliant estuary
#

so I know, that rank A = min{m,n}, m<n -> Rank A = m and Rng A = R^m

#

but the next step states, that it has infinitely many solutions, because A has a non-trivial space, can somebody please tell me, how to know if the space is non-trivial?

#

i have like the intuition in my head, if you have more variables than equations (m<n), than you will have infinitely many soultions, just dont know how to say it formally

oki

#

I have this

#

first of all, we know that the eigenvalue is -3 with multiplicity 4.
Now we are looking for the eigenvectors so we compute (A - lambda I)v=0.
I found only 1 eigenvector, that is v = (1 ; 1 ; 1 ; 1).

#

so we are looking for 3 power vectors such as (A - lambda I) w = v.
I found 2 power vectors : w1 = (2 3 0 1) and w2 = (0 0 1 0).

#

we are looking for a last power vector. We compute (A - lambda I) y = w1. But now there is a probleme because we have the matrix
(1 0 0 -1
-1 1 0 0
-1 1 0 0
3 -1 0 -2)
and we get the system
y1 - y4 = 2
-y1 + y2 = 3
-y1 + y2 = 0
3y1 - y 2 -2 y4 = 1

it's incoherent for row 2 and row 3.

#

So how can we find the Jordan canonical form for this matrix ??

pallid scarab
#

you might need to use a combination of w1 and w2 to find a last power vector, as now you found from which rows an incoherent system may arise

sinful flame
#

oh ok ! how can I write my system with a combination of w1 and w2 ?

pallid scarab
#

since you already know w1 and w2 satisfy (A - lambda I) w = v

#

any combination aw1 + (1-a)w2 will also satisfy that

#

now time to find an appropriate value of a such that (A - lambda I) y = aw1 + (1-a)w2 is not incoherent

sinful flame
#

why aw1 + (1-a)w2 ? 🤔

pallid scarab
#

so w = aw1 + bw2

#

but if you want the left hand side to equal v

#

you need b = 1-a

sinful flame
#

mmmmmmmmmh

#

I'm still not sure to understand 😅

pallid scarab
#

try out this method for now

#

we can get more into the specific of why it works afterwards

$$\lim_{x \to a} \frac{x² - (a - 1)x + a}{x² - a²}$$

#

what

jagged cobalt
#

its because youre writing superscripts

#

just use ^{2}

obsidian ember
#

$\lim_{x \to a} \frac{x^2 - (a - 1)x + a}{x^2 - a^2}$

ocean sealBOT
obsidian ember
#

there

#

me and my friends all got different results

#

idk which one is right

#

i wrote the numerator as (x-a)(x+1) + 2a and the denominator as (x+a)(x-a)

#

(x-a) cancels out leaving me with

#

$$\frac{(x+1) + 2a}{x+a}$$

ocean sealBOT
jagged cobalt
#

thats not how that works

obsidian ember
#

why not?

jagged cobalt
#

thats like saying (6+1)/2=3+1

#

2a does not have a factor of (x-a)

obsidian ember
#

oh

#

ohhh

#

how should i solve it then?

jagged cobalt
#

if you sub in a
you get (a^2-a^2+a+a)/(a^2-a^2)=2a/0

#

provided a is non zero, what would that mean

obsidian ember
#

i have to fsctorize it in some way?

jagged cobalt
#

no

#

dont over think it

obsidian ember
#

the function is not continuous at that point?

jagged cobalt
#

uh, sure, that would be the case no matter what a is

obsidian ember
#

right

#

soo

#

what should i do then

#

😭

identify the quadrant where theta can be found, and find the exact value of the specified trig functions

a.) cos theta = 2/5 and sin theta < 0, tan theta = ?

lilac jolt
#

what i did was
a.) focused on the sign, since (cos,sin) is (x,y), therefore (+ , -) is in quadrant IV.

b.) used sin²x + cos²x = 1 and sub cos(2/5), and then finding sinx we get -sqrt(21)/5

c.) sub sin and cos in tan = sin/cos, we get -sqrt(21)/2

#

is this correct

lilac jolt
#

cotx = 3 and cosx > 0, sinx = ?

#

same process?

#

im trying and i cant get it

silk lintel
#

ig so

#

do yk what is the equivalent of cotx?

lilac jolt
#

cosx/sinx

silk lintel
#

yes, though i was thinking of 1/tanx

#

cotx=1/tanx, r u aware of this?

lilac jolt
#

yes

silk lintel
#

so

lilac jolt
#

but how is 1/tanx more helpful here

silk lintel
#

we have 1/tanx = 3, which is also the same as tanx = 1/3 yeah?

silk lintel
lilac jolt
#

yes

#

oh

silk lintel
silk lintel
# lilac jolt oh

we know now that tanx is postive and the qn tells us cosx is postive too, thus it must be in the first quadrant

lilac jolt
#

qn?

silk lintel
#

yes

lilac jolt
#

whats qn

silk lintel
#

um

silk lintel
lilac jolt
#

oh u meant question, sorry

silk lintel
#

its okay nws!

lilac jolt
#

if the cosx in tanx is positive, then the sinx must also be positive is what i got from your statement

#

am i correct?

silk lintel
lilac jolt
#

now finding the sinx

#

how

silk lintel
#

from here im going to approach it in a way u may or may not have done before but ill try to explain it

#

do yk how like tanx = opposite/adjacent, with a right angle triangle

lilac jolt
#

soh cah toa yes

silk lintel
#

yeah!

#

hold up let me draw smt

#

you could use pythagorus to find the length of the hypotenuse

#

in this case hyp = root( 3^2 + 1^2) = root10

#

so you can say to find sinx, sinx= opp/hyp = 1/root10

silk lintel
#

and thats how i would solve qns like these

#

does it kinda make sense?

lilac jolt
#

oh

#

so sinx = 1/sqrt(10)

silk lintel
#

yuh

lilac jolt
#

but the radical on the denominator

#

i just multiply both top and bottom by root10 right

silk lintel
#

sure

lilac jolt
#

so i get

lilac jolt
silk lintel
#

r u sure?

#

root10 multipled by root 10

#

for ur denominator

lilac jolt
#

thats just 10?

silk lintel
#

mhmm

lilac jolt
#

oh, so just root10/10 then

silk lintel
#

mhmm

lilac jolt
#

OMG

#

i got the question wrong

#

but i get the idea now

#

the correct question was

silk lintel
silk lintel
lilac jolt
#

cotx = 3 and cosx < 0, sinx = ?

#

cos is negative

#

ill try answering it on my own, wait a min

silk lintel
#

okay!

lilac jolt
#

nvm i cant

#

i have an answer key and it is quadrant 3

#

how so?

#

i found that sinx is still the same as earlier

#

am i wrong

silk lintel
lilac jolt
#

negative

#

but i wouldnt know it was quadrant 3 if not for the answer key

silk lintel
#

mhmmm

lilac jolt
#

so how would i know

silk lintel
#

hmmm

#

have u heard of the rule

#

ASTC

#

or all stations to central

lilac jolt
#

nope

silk lintel
#

um

lilac jolt
#

pls explain

silk lintel
#

ok so

#

yk how thers 4 quadrants yeah?

lilac jolt
#

yh

silk lintel
#

lemme draw hold up

#

these r the 4 quads yeah?

#

the first quad is the top right and then u go in like a C shape to get to the last quad

lilac jolt
#

yhhh

silk lintel
# silk lintel ASTC

this rule essentially stands for, all sin tan cos, where it follows the same order of the quadrants, so like the first quad ALL is positive, second quad ONLY SIN is positive, third quad ONLY TAN is positive, fourth quad ONLY COS is positive

lilac jolt
#

ohh

silk lintel
#

so that means eg, the seocnd quad ONLY SIN is POSTIVE, so the other 2, cos and tan has to be negative

#

and vice versa

#

so in this qn, we first know tan is postive, thus it could be in EITHER FIRST or THIRD, since those 2 quadrants will allow tan to be postive

#

but next we find out cos is negative, which eliminates the option of the first quadrant

#

so it MUST be in the THIRD quadrant

#

so since its in the third quad, if we want to find sin in it, it will be negative
