good ev
you know your trig, right?
yes
then consider tan(60).
since tan=opposite/adjacent=30/PB here.
and we want PB.
okay,
do you know how to rationalize the denominator?
ahhhhhh, i forgot that...
yes, i do
better yet, note that $10\sqrt{3}\cdot\sqrt{3}=30$.
;(
thank you, now i got it
so what can we do to that pesky rt(3)?
👍
multiply both, up and down and get the result there
thank you

hi so
im really confuseed with imagtinary numbers
like how am i supposed to do this
what am i supposed to do
sqrt of 72 is 36
no
idk
Have you learned about prime factorization of numbers in school?
get tuah the point psl
What are the prime factors of 72?
your answer is nearly correct
i dont think 4,6 are prime
8
I mean 4 isn't prime but it is square so that's important to note
can u visiualize this
Start with 2 and keep dividing 72 by it until u can't anymore
where did the 28 come from
it is only an example
The amount of times you can divide a number by a prime shows how many times that prime divides the number
What.,
Ok so since 72/2 = 36
That means 2 is a factor of 72
Since 36/2 = 18
That means 2^2 is a factor of 72
And so on
hiido, i dont think mela understand about prime factorization
Yeah I guess not
Hmm
Idk how else to explain it
it would be better if you could explain it first
can you guys draw it
we dont need to draw it
im a visual learne
Sadly being a visual learner can be unfortunate with math
alr let me try to help
Idrk if there's a way to visually show this
draw the equation and the steps
I guess let's try to find sqrt(18)
Oh yeah that's a cool way
factor tree?
Yes
And the amount of primes u get at the very bottom
Is the prime factorization of the number
So 32 = 2^5
Bc there's 5 twos
U just multiply it at the end
Since $\sqrt{-x} = i\sqrt{x}$
hiidostuff
yeahh
I learned by teaching people on here
i still used my keyboard like 2^2 or 3*4
i still use ^ and *
I mean it's good for short form stuff
But if ur doing more complicated math then texit is the way to go
Anyways @vapid sundial is everything good now?
What's your simplified answer?
So so close
But do u agree that $6\sqrt{3} = \sqrt{6^2 \cdot 3}$
hiidostuff
And 6^2 * 3 isnt 72
yea
72 is 6^2 times what
12
hiidostuff
2
hiidostuff
well you know that $\sqrt{96} = 4\sqrt{6}$ now
hiidostuff
since you factorized it
so just multiply by -i
since you have a negative outside and inside the square root
/ is square root
oh
no its not but ig for now it can be
dont forget i tho
you need to multiply ur answer by i bc u have a negative in the square root

Does anyone know how to integrate this one, i tried many times but dont see the way to approach it tho
Doesn't look like the antiderivative would be nice
Maybe integration by parts
Doesn't sound fun for an indefinite integral
I did try D I method, but it wasnt any better tho
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
hmm
,w integral of x^2/(1 + e^x)
ok wow it does not look promising
Are you sure you don't have to do a definite integral
not an ordinary one
yeah
well not really
It's actually a piece of a question, I just divided into smaller one cuz I thought it would be easier tho
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
This is the original question tho
Yes this is indeed a definite
yeah
It was definite 🥲
😭
Invert it about y and you get rid of the denominator
Kings rule and add, the deno will vanish
what the fk is king's rule
Wherever man is, it's king's rule 
😭 oh it's just a substitution
But the question is letting that definite integral= api + bpi^2+c*pi^3, So basically i was finding a, b, c (a, b, c belongs to Q)
what is king's rule btw
yeah idk
Lol. Read what I said
Basically let y = -x
it's just a sub from x -> a + b- x where a and b are your integration bounds
hmmm
This is why !xy exists
ok, letme try to do it then and see where it goes
You have to add the two integrals

It's really useful for integrals of the form $$\int_{-a}^a\frac{E(x)}{1+e^{O(x)}}\dd{x}$$ where $E(x)$ is an even function and $O(x)$ is an odd function
kheerii
And that's what you have
Um what am i supposed to do next
um still confused
Like now I have to put it back into integral or what?
Simplify it first
Like letting y=-x ?, and having nearly the same function?
That's what you did
And yes, the point is that you have a function very similar to the original
yeah
Try to see what's different about it
You just undid your work
Simplify the top expression
splitting it into two?
Why did the -x in the exponent turn into x?
Tihsho
u mean in the sine then yeah?
No, in the denominator
oh yeah
$2I = \int_{\frac{-\pi}{2}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} \left(\frac{x^2 + \sin^2 x}{1+e^x} + \frac{x^2 + \sin^2 x}{1+e^{-x}} \right) \dd x$

is what you should have

wait, how do we get this one, cuz like can we use it for any function?
or is there any specific requirement?
You can substitute u=a+b-x
and yes it works for every function
It's a property of the integral operator, not the function

can you solve this by taking infinite circles using dynamic radius?
yeah
but to do that we have to take account of the slope right using arc length formula?
but i do not understand why we need to take account of the slope when we have infinite circumferences of circles
kronium_
nah
when the thickness of each cylinder is small enough, the slope of the line is nothing
thts exactly my thinking too, but apparently u DO have to take account of slope
but why?
consider the surface area of these two curves revolved
dont follow you
they have the same horizontal width (both of them go from x=1 to x=2)
but the green one is clearly bigger
but while integrating from 1 to 2 wont the y axis and x -axis dynamically change?
the axis??
when you integrate you break it up into tiny slices. for the blue curve, a slice of width 1/10 will contribute 2πr = 2π*1/10 to the surface area
for the green curve, a slice of width 1/10 will contribute much more
dont follow you
hmm
can you see that the green surface will have more surface area than the blue surface?
this is the point im stuck in
yeah because that's only true for volume, where the rest of it dominates
for surface area the slope is all that's there
so it doesn't vanish
dominates?
if you've done arc length this is similar to that
"is substantially larger than"
yea u use that formula too
yes
wont u split it into infinite circles whose circumferences you can stack to form the SA
each one of those tiny circles (really squished cylinderish things) has a surface area which is bigger than that of a cylinder
ok...

so I'm trying to prove part a)
I've been able to show that S^n-1 is compact, and that the annulus A is open
then there's a theorem stating that in such a situation, there's a smooth bump function from h: A \to R
that means 0 <= h <= 1 on A, h(x) = 1 on S^n-1, and h is compactly supported in A (i.e. h(x) = 0 outside a compact subset of A)
you can smoothly extend this h to be defined on all of R^n by defining it to equal 0 everywhere outside of A
call that extended function h'
now I want to define a smooth g: R^n \to R that agrees with f on S^n-1, and is 0 outside of A
but I am struggling to do this
I tried
\begin{align*}
g(x) =
\begin{cases}
h'(x)f(x) & x \in S^{n - 1} \
h'(x) & x \in A \setminus S^{n - 1} \
0 & x \in \R^n \setminus A
\end{cases}
\end{align*}
but this has the issue that it's not necessarily continuous, let alone smooth
ourfallenstars
because the function doesn't quite smoothly transition from S^n-1 to A \ S^n-1
so I'm stuck 
that's because h'(x) is at most 1, so g(x) <= 1 on A \ S^n-1
but h'(x)f(x) = f(x) could be much greater than 1 on S^n-1
maybe this is the wrong approach? 
you need some kind of smoothing function that is 0 on x=|1-e| and 1 on x=1
that is in C^inf
I have such a function: h (or h')
the issue is using it to extend f to all of R^n
I can't seem to find a way to do that
that doesn't fix the issue that that f(x) could be much much larger than 1
in which case the extension is discontinuous
so obviously not smooth
if you have a point x on the annulus then you can find the nearest point that is on the unit sphere
thats the point you want to smooth with
sure, and I could multiply the h'(x) in the annulus with that point (to get a smooth extension), but how would I formally write that down?
the closest point on the circle to a point p is clearly the intersection point between the circle and the radial line emanating from the origin 
but idk how to turn that into a formula to extract that point
like this is what you wanna do
the distance is $||x_1-x_2||_2$ with $x_1$ the point and $x_2$ the point on the circle
Bonk
it should be, yes
we're gonna be multiplying points a short distance away from each other by different constants
if you smooth it radially, it should be i think
like, imagine its a pie and you take a slice, that curve on the slice should look kinda gaussian around r=1
mby its easier to work in spherical coordinates?
then r=1, ezpz
like this is my situation rn, yeah?
those are the graphs of f and h', resp.
then like, we have a point x in the annulus, and we take the intersection of the radial line to x with the circle, and consider the value of f there
whats that intersection point
wdym?
like, how do you find it
call it a, idk
okay updated graph
$\frac{x}{||x||}$
Bonk
😄
this is my situation now
that gives you the point on f
that not necessarily smooth, but yes i see what you mean
you want like a sin or smth
like this
yeah ik
s.t. for $||x||=1$ sin(x)=1
Bonk
yup
but idk how to draw so that's what we have
now uhh
okay I just took a section of the graph of f to show what I want g to look like
but is that actually what g will look like? 
I'm worried about horizontal non-smoothness
like say between the two yellow lines
$\sin(p(x))=\begin{cases}0 \text{ for } ||x-\varepsilon||=1\1 \text{ for } ||x||=1\end{cases}$
Bonk
you need smth like this
no don't worry about the sin thing
okok
like I have this already
h is my bump function
we don't need a new one
I just need to extend f
no need to give a definition?
.
and the message below that one
but this remains my concern
with the possibility that the function g isn't smooth as we move sideways
obviously it's smooth in the radial direction
it depends on your smooth bump function
we don't know anything about it
but im pretty sure you can define your smooth bump function in a way such that its also smooth when going sideways
can you give the theorem?
it is guaranteed to be smooth sideways?
cause if so, then I'm done
if not, then I'm stuck
i think so
start here
does it not come from C is compact?
what does?
that its smooth sideways
how does it follow from compactness?
idk, thats the only way i can think of it being smooth sideways lol
so its probably somewhere in there
compactness is smth like every cauchy sequence converges?
uhh, that's completeness, no? 
compactness of C means every open cover admits a finite subcover
fk
hmm

Closed by @summer dirge
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
what was the solution??
it's indeed smooth sideways
f(x/|x|) is smooth cause f is smooth
product of smooth is smooth
so g is smooth

.I had bad intuition and that's what made me fail to see it

It says two sides of the triangle ABC are AB=BC=18dm Bisector AE together with side AB make a 15 degree corner find 1) Bisector BK length 2) length of AC 3) Area of triangle ABC
i would do part 2 first and then part 1 and then part 3
yes
and bka =bkc=90 degrees?
yeah because sin of 30 is 1/2
yea so BK =9 right?
correct
apply the pythagorean theorem because you know 2 of the three sides of a right triangle yes
yeah that is correct
ok, but now there is a problem
3rd question
area of triangle ABC
1/2ah?
so 1/2 * 18 square root of 3 * 9?
and i dont get a normal answer
the big triangle is made of two congruent triangles so if you find the area of those two you have the area of the whole

log X/ log 10 is not equal to log(X/10)
u are wrong at the second line
log X - log 10 = log(X/10)

idk what to do with the log 5/x
$\log(\frac{a}{b})=\log(a)-\log(b)$

Someone else is already using this help channel. If you need help with a question, please open your own help channel/thread (see #❓how-to-get-help for instructions).
what is the original que
for the first term use this but reverse
so u get base 10 of log (x^2+x)
hmm wait
this que is weirder than i initially thought
i got log 2 x(x+1)^1/2 for the first term
so, $\frac{\log_4(x^2+x)}{\log_4(10)}+\log(\frac{5}{x})-\log_2(27)=7$? i recommend you convert everything into $\log(x)$ first before you proceed.
;(
you can.
.
.
thats not true here.
hmm
yes.
or, you can just combine the rest.
oh wait
you can use the reverse of properties stated above to combine all the terms.
as well as this.
ii dont understand
i have stated the properties.
log (x^2+x) + log5 - logx - log_2 27 = 7
combine log (x^2+x) with -logx
so is
log (x+1) +log5- log_2 27 = 7
please let OP figure that out.
because of change of base.
kk
;(
now, can you isolate the log(x+1) term for me?
nice!
not necessarily.
$\log(x+1)=7-\log(5)+\log_2(27)$
;(
Oops my bad you reverse the (x+1) and the 7-log5+log2 27
I’m pretty sure
what do you mean?
10^7-log5+log2 27 = x-1
yeah, for that whole constant term.
then, you add one, and you’re basically donez

$\int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{1-cos(\pi\omega)}{\omega}*sin(x\omega)d\omega$
TheOnlyCheezIt
The question is show that the above integral is equal to pi/2 for 0 < x < pi, and 0 if x > pi
I'm pretty confused, and dont really know what direction to go
If i try to expand it out and do integration by parts i feel like it leads me no where
Pretty sure im supposed to use this equation
but i dont really know what do do with it
Plug in f(v) = (1-cos(pi v))/v
I get the B(omega) equals (1-cos(pi omega))/omega
Or plug in B(w) = pi/2 if 0<w<pi and 0 otherwise
but how does that become f(v)?
This one will show
Much easier to compute

A ferry is attempting to cross a river. The current of water is moving downstream at a cosntant rate of 3.0m/s. The ferry can move at 4.5m/s relative to the water in the river, as measured by an observer on the ferry. Propose a way that the ferry can cross the river to reach a point directly across from its starting point.
How do I draw the diagram for this question??
2. draw a downstream current
3. draw a ferry on one side of river, label it A, and a point exactly opposite at B
4. realize that for the ferry to reach point directly across, its velocity component upstream should cancel the velocity for downstream current
5. send the ferry off at an angle theta to shore```
@static wagon
so like the bottom diagram??
? where's the river ... where's the ferry, points A, B angle theta??
if you don't want to listen, why ask 
ur wlc
the "along the river" component of the velocity of the ferry wrt water should be equal and opposite to the velocity of the river.
proceed from there
i dont get this
could you explain this diagram pls
this is the only thing needed to solve this.
If you don't get this, then try again
wdym explain this
like explain the process of drawing the diagram
You won't learn anything if you are spoonfed
downstream current is 3
ferry is sent upstream at angle theta from shore
the green line is ferry's ideal motion
v_y is ferry's velocity's vertical component that should negate downstream current
v_x is horizontal component that gets the ferry across river
so we're just solving for costheta then?
which is 3/4.5
yes
but would that mean that the ferry has to depart 48 degrees downstream?
so that it would travel along its ideal path
and it wasn't "just". You couldn't even figure the diagram so this question was significantly tough for you
also, no.
cos theta = 3/4.5 = 2/3 gives an acute angle
so it'd be 48.19 degrees upstream
oh so the river would push the ferry downstream and allow it to travel along its ideal path right

Hey guys, I am currently working through the Book of Proof by Richard Hammack (mostly to get back into math).\bigskip
1. $\{ 5n+2b: a,b \in \mathbbm{Z}\}=\mathbbm{Z}$\\
2. $\{ 6n+2b: a,b \in \mathbbm{Z}\}= \{all \; even \; numbers\}$\bigskip
Assume $\{ 5n+2b: a,b \in \mathbbm{Z}\} = A$ and $n \in A$ and represent all integers.
Also assume $5n+2b$ represent all integers.\\
Therefore:\\
for $a=n,b=-2n$\\
$\rightarrow n=5(n)+2(-2n)$\\
$\rightarrow n \in A$ and $A = \mathbbm{Z}$\bigskip
I know this is not pretty and complete but shouldn't I also show that $A \subseteq \mathbbm{Z}$ (what i remembered from Uni) ?

@nimble zealot Has your question been resolved?
seems like you assumed the conclusion you wanted to prove
also, shouldn't it be {5a +2b : a,b in Z} and not n?
the idea of using n and -2n seems right though
@dire gazelle ty for answering! {5a +2b : a,b in Z} is indeed in Z but i couldn't find where i wrote that it is in n
ohh right my mistake it meant to be a
care to elaborate how i should be doing it in the right order? TY!
i'd get rid of this part
you can say "Let A={5n+2b:a,b in Z}"
if you just want to give it a name
my small brain was thinking, ok we want to prove that there exist an n in A, which can be any element of the integer, therefore yada yada and thus we can put n = 5a+2b
and through that we can prove that A is indeed equal Z
or do i overcomplicate it ?
For all $n\in\mathbb{Z}$, let\
$a=n$, $b=-2n$\
$n=5(n)+2(-2n)$\
$n\in A$ and $\mathbb{Z}\subseteq A$
Axe
ohhhhhh
so just to understand the steps:
- we define for all n in Z, there exist an a = n and b = -2n (since a,b are elements of Z)
- now put them into equations and say that n is indeed an element of A which we defined as Let A={5n+2b:a,b in Z}
and also that Z is a real subset of A
yeah, a exists because n exists. b exists because you can multiply n by -2 no matter what n is
a is an integer because n is an integer
b is an integer because integers are closed under multiplication
oops i fixed a typo
and we dont have to prove that Z is a real subset of A right? kinda redundant
yes that implies A=Z
thank you so far! i will read more on how to prove that these subsets are kinda equal and will come back with more questions!

✅
@dire gazelle i looked up the definition of subsets, is this maybe correct?
since we know $n\in\mathbb{Z}$ we can say:
$\mathbb{Z} \subseteq A \Leftrightarrow \forall n : (n \in \mathbb{Z} \Rightarrow n \in A)$
manonmars
so i just have to do it from the other direction again correct?
that's right, and you don't even need to know n is in Z
this is the definition of a subset
yes now you need to show n in A implies n in Z
we also proved that $n \in A$, $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z} \Leftrightarrow \forall n : (n \in A \Rightarrow n \in \mathbb{Z})$
because of $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z} \wedge \mathbb{Z} \subseteq A \Leftrightarrow A = \mathbb{Z}$
manonmars
or did you mean i had to do it all over again for n \in A
so that i can come to the conclusion that n is indeed in A ?
because that might be my mistake
we don't need to prove $A\subseteq\mathbb{Z}\Leftrightarrow \forall n : (n \in A \Rightarrow n \in \mathbb{Z})$ \
we only need to prove $\forall n : (n \in A \Rightarrow n \in \mathbb{Z})$
Axe
yes now let n be an element of A
hmm ok, i will need a minute on that, ty for the input!
and show that n is in Z
i see i see, it's just reversed
jup i am typing up the solution 1 sec
ok
For all $n\in A$, let\
$a=n, b=-2n$\
$n=5(n)+2(-2n)$\
$n \in \mathbb{Z}$ and $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z}$
since $n \in A$ $\forall n : (n \in A \Rightarrow n \in \mathbb{Z})$
$A \subseteq \mathbb{Z} \wedge \mathbb{Z} \subseteq A \Leftrightarrow A = \mathbb{Z}$
manonmars
this doesn't seem like the right approach
we should say
For all $n\in A$ there exist $a,b\in\mathbb{Z}$ such that $n=5a+2b$
Axe
since multiplication and addition are closed over the integers, and since a and b are integers, we can say 5a+2b is an integer and so n is an integer
i feel so stupid now.... so the first direction we literally proved that n is in Z because of the combination of a,b in Z, now we want to prove that n is in A which is 5a + 2b and it is done?
the first direction we proved that $n\in\mathbb{Z} \implies n\in A$
Axe
jup
and now i just showed that $n\in A \implies n\in \mathbb{Z}$
Axe
understood
does everything make sense?
it does now haha, i am just sitting here thinking that i might be too stupid for proofs lol
i don't know, practice should help

guys if you have 5^4+(-4)^2+(-2)^7 and now betwen 5^4 and (-4)^2 there is a + now what will be done first the + and - to go and be - or first that (-4)^2 which will make 16 in + and + and + gives +
The - sign is inside the bracket so it will get squared first before anything else, so the second thing you said
5^4 + 16
i need help

Im doing definite integrals, area between curves, and need feedback where I went wrong and if im using substitution correctly.
😭 put that on latex
don't worry
i'm going to
I noticed an error you did: you forgot to change the integrand bounds when you changed variable
For the sqrt? It gave me the same answer afterwards if I used x or kept it u
oh, yeah i see now that you switched back to x before using the integrand bounds, so that's fine actually
Okay, so the substitution is fine. The answer is wrong on webassign for some reason. I plan on talking to my teacher, but I want to make sure my math is good first
Could you send the problem statement?
Evaluate the integral and interpret it as the area of a region.
A picture perhaps? Your calculations are entirely correct, I also got apprx. 11.58. The only options are if the webassign is incorrect or you've misunderstood the problem statement
My sketch matched the correct answer on webassign, so I guess its webassign
I think you made a latex error in the top right corner
The sqrt in the integral from 6 to 9 is sqrt(5x+6)
I think you made an error with the bracket here
Second bracket its 1/2(9^2-6^2) instead of subtracting the squares from 1/2
yup xd
lol
All the calculations of that integral look correct to me. That's all I can say with the info you've provided
All right. Thank y'all for the help
I think i misinterpreted the question. It wanted the equation after evaluating the integral, not the answer
Yo this is why I told you to send the problem statement lmao
Yea this is what I typed before
I'm confused, did you find the issue?
This is the answer format it wants
Yea no calculator. Clearly I did to evaluate everything on this one, so I guess that was my issue
I think I have my own stuff to work on and doing simplifying radicals without a calculator

why is it multiplying everything by 2
you add 9/4 to both sides you get 9/8
im not sure what you mean
they only added the sec^3 integral to both sides
so on the left you have 2 of those
no the sec^3 integral has 9/4 in front
yeah 2 * 9/4
right but then you multiply the other side by 8/9
im stupid why tf did i keep getting 9/8
okay yea it should be 9/2 lmao
wait but shouldnt everything be over 2
the left is the integral * 9/2
since you only want the integral =... you multiply both sides by 2/9 to get rid of it
(i imagine)
unless you actually want the result of 9/4 * integral
in which case yeah divide everything by 2
so we're just manipulating it to get what we want lol
thats maths

I think if you haven't already you could try expanding (x+p)(x+q) to get an understanding
If I'm reading this correctly
Wait are you asking how you go from the bottom line to factors of the equation?
So the constant term c must equal to pq
And the coefficient of the x term must be equal to p+q
and you are stuck at the bottom line?
it’s right
i’m just trying to understand what you are stuck on
so on the bottom you have x(ax+p)+1(qx+c) correct?
i see why you are confused because now i’m looking at this confused lmfao
i see what you are saying, you can’t just do the normal thing since what is in the parentheses is different
ah i c
@fallow quest Has your question been resolved?
i think what this does is literally proves that it only works for whenever (ax+p) and (qx+c) are equal
@fallow quest do you know what splitting the middle term is?
This video explains why the Splitting the Middle technique works when factorising quadratics. I would recommend watching my video on using Splitting the Middle first: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtHEk6Yy6N4
see if this video helps
can you rephrase?
mhm
it’s just a way to formalize factoring by grouping
or splitting the middle term
yep
same principles
in both of them, you are seeing what adds up to, or multiplies to
try both the x method and factoring by grouping on the same equation
(ax+b)(cx+d)
how do you factor this out?
sorry
how do you expand it
tell me what you multiply in each step
yo
yep

And the teacher’s teaching way too fast
i think the issue might actually be that variables are y used
yeah, because then there are issues with like terms
for instance, in any example, for b, d, a, and c, they would be numbers
so logically if this is true, the only variable would be x
both only have x therefore they are like terms and can be added together
so it just gets a little weird because they aren’t technically like terms when you make them all variables
x^2+ 6x+8
(x+4)(x+2)
xx + x2+4*x+4times2
simplifys to x^2+6x+8
so the two terms multipled (first and last, second and first) became the middle term when added. The last term is simply last times last
it’s really hard to conceptualize since you are dealing with like terms, multiplying and adding
but it will definitely make sense later
you can still wait tho if you would like, i’m sure someone will be better at explaining it than me
yeee

find prime number a, b, c, d, e, f so that:
a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + d^3 + e^2 = f^2
i use module 3 and able to work out in a, b, c, d, e at least one of them is divisible by 3
should they be different?
no
its d^3 ?
so case 1 if d is divisible by 3 then d=3 (d is prime) so d = 27
27 + a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + e^2 = f^2
i use module 4 and 2 of them is divisible by 2
so 2 of them is equal to 2
35 + c^2 + e^2 = f^2
then i use mod 5 and there is no solution to this case
case 2: a or b or c or e is divisible by 3
$a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + d^3 + e^2 = f^2$?
Arya
yea
d^3 is interesting to me here
are u sure that the primes can be the same?
yes
