exact value doesnt matter
but therefore the quotient is 10^25-(nearly 7) = 99999....93.something

The point of a vector field is to kind of get a feel for how a function affects each point in space right?
For example, if I have a complex function to which I apply the transformation w = i*f(z)
Anywhere on the axes, i would draw a perpendicular vector, because at those points, the function is "pulling it" upwards while it tries to rotate the point by 90 degrees
Similarly, at some point say (1,1) on the complex plane, I would get a vector at that point thats kind of "diagonal"
Because the transformation w vector at that point has an x component and a y component
or an RE IM component
Is this interpretation correct?

(doesnt matter)
why?
well you can find out something about what Dp for p constant could be. but it doesnt change anything about whether D is surjective or not
often, 0 is thought of as a polynomial with degree -infinity or -1 depending on the situation
hm
i'm thinking for this exercise i'd examine how D acts on P_m(R) and prove that it's surjective in P_m(R)
then somehow generalize it to P(R)
idea is good
D isn't surjective in P_m(R)
D from P_m(R) to P_{m-1}(R) may be
@zinc haven Has your question been resolved?
yes, typo
would induction work?
start with verifying m = 1, then work up to m = infty
if i suppose arbitrary m, then i struggle to prove im(D|_P) = P_(m-1)(R)
you could phrase it as induction, sure. but where are you even using the induction hypothesis
remember, you only need to hit a spanning set
hit?
the elements in the image are those that you "hit" with your function
oh wait, this might be simpler than i thought
by rank-nullity, m = dim(ker(D|_m)) + dim(im(D|_m))
but by definition, D only reduces p degree by 1, so dim(ker(D|_m)) is basically 1, which is the space of all constant polynomials
i think?
not quite
just asking, if i want to prove im(D|m) = P(m-1)(R), then is double inclusion viable?
i can show subset, but i'm still thinking on supset
yes thats viable
hm, i have an idea of the proof
but it would require that i can rewrite p in P(R) as a_0 + a_1x + a_2x^2 + ...
a basis of P_0(R)?
span(x) is a set
D(set) should also be a set
D(set) means "apply D to every element in the set"
ok, then P_0(R)
what is D(x^2) ?
a basis vector of P_1(R)
more precise please
a member of a basis D(x^2), D(x) of P_1(R)
why do D(x) and D(x^2) form a basis?
well if we write it as a sum, we have D(a_1x + a_2x^2), which is an arbitrary polynomial in P_2(R). we can prove that im(D) restricted to P_2(R) is precisely the space P_1(R)
nono, thats what I want to prove using this
D(x) is a (nonzero) constant polynomial
D(x^2) is a linear polynomial
so they are two polynomials of distinct degrees
so they are lin independent
both living in P_1(R) which has dim 2
hence they are a basis
oh yeah..
ok so we can extend this to P_m(R)
what i'm worrying is how to extend this to P(R)
you only need to hit a spanning set of P(R)
e.g. a list of polynomials of all degrees
or you can also phrase it differently, to show surjective you need to show that every polynomial is in the image
but every polynomial lives in one P_m(R)
so you are done
yes, i prefer the latter approach
axler doesn't really define a spanning set for infdim spaces
in fact, it's the definition of infdim spaces
just because axler does it that way doesnt mean that you also have to do it that way. at some point you will encounter infdim spaces so it doesnt hurt to touch them from time to time
P(R) is barely even infdim, it still behaves very nicely
alright sure

What is the turning point of the function: -x^4 - 2x^3+2x^2+4x
I got the derivative (-4x^3-6x^2+4x) then put it into chat gpt but it seems to have an answer inconsistent with the maximum of that curve in the function. Its answer was -1.41,0 but the maximum of the curve was different
Whats a turning point?
The point in a curve where it goes from increasing to decreasing
Or id assume its the maxim of the curve
Oh yk, what's your problem
What the turning point of the first curve in the equation is
I got the derivative then failed to equate it to 0
failed to equate to 0 ? Why?
What did you get as the derivative?
I think you missed a + 4 here ...
In the derivative
-4x^3-6x^2+4x+4
I thought y didn’t factor that
When finding the derivative
constants go
Ye mb
I agree it's not going to be easy to factorise the derivative
do you get to use a calculator
Yes
Why does my calculator give a different turning point of -1.7 =x
Chatgbt insisted -1.41
Is that an error on chatgbt part?

do i just work out
lets suppose that the intersection point was R
of those two lines
do i just work out
MR and PR
or
AM AR
and
AP PR
you can extend PQ so that it intersects BC at E and AD at F
then prove that CE = MF

Just some simple geometry homework if someone can help, I also have a answer key (provided by teacher) if need be
Do you know about rotational symmetry?
jog my memory
If you can rotate a figure around, and the rotated figure looks exactly like the original figure, the figure has rotational symmetry
^ only if you can keep rotating at a constant angle and end up with a 360-deg rotation
yeah i believe she mentioned that
my teacher
Can you try solving #1?
ive got no idea what its asking me
i missed todays class
Ok one sec
Since there are 5 equal parts to this figure that differ only by a rotation about the center of the figure, the figure can be rotated 1/5 of a full rotation
yeah understandable
Can you try solving #1 similarly, by counting how many equal parts there are
but then wouldnt the circle be able to be infinitively rotated
You can rotate a circle as little or as much as you want, and you'd end up with the same figure.
*infinitely, not infinitively
ok
but this time id rotate it 8 times because thats the amount of slices right
No
There are 8 equal slices
But how many times must you rotate the object to get an identical looking object?
∞
Are we talking about the circle or the figure in #1
so id rotate it 8 times right
why
Since each slice is off from another by 1/8 of a rotation, you must perform 1/8 of a rotation to align the current slices with where the previous slices were
So put 1/8 rotation
And also find how many degrees is 1/8 of a rotation
i could do that by dividing 360/8
✅
huh
You need to write 1/8 rotation AND 45 degrees
this is what my answer key says
now i need help with this
<@&286206848099549185> i need hep nobody's responded in 15 minutes
What is this question?
Try graphing where the x cordinate is the sides and the y cord is the diagonals
huh
what
The question is asking for diagonal’s for certain shapes yeah, so if you graph the sides to the diagonals and find a relationship you will find the answer

Im trying to wrap my head around chemistry mole/gram/etc calculations but i am struggling, i know how to do the formula when its put in front of me, but knowing how to set it up from the raw data is where im struggling.
I pretty much need to be taught it in a percise way so i can actually do the problems.

22.4L/mole of gas at stp, so if you have 4 moles you want to cancel the moles and turn to volume (litres), so 4moles*(22.4L/1mole)= 4x22.4L of gas occupied
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).
nevermind you're answering the question im stupid
lol all good
when doing unit conversions you want an equal ratio, so 60sec/min, 2gramH2/mole H2, and you can flip that ratio to do what u wnat with it, as long as it remains equal. So like 5 minutes to seconds would be 5min*(60sec/1min), and notice how now on the bottom you have minutes, and at the top u have minutes, so they cancel and now youre just left with seconds as units, so 5x60sec
i get that part i suppose, but i struggle with building the actual formula from the raw data
like
when its in front of me filled out
its easy
but like
taking from that world problem
what raw data?
and turning it into a formula to solve is where i go brain dead
there are some ratios you have to memorize, like 22.4L/1mole, 6.02x10^23/1mole (i think i havnt used avagadros number in a minute)
like see in 7. i stopped midway becuase i realized i didnt actually know EXACTLY what to do,
6.02x10^23
im aware of stp being 22.4
and 6.02x10^23
i ust get messed up actually setting up the raw formula, for example
80gMethane = mol / g
would i put the base weight of methane as a whole (16.04) where grams is and 22.4 where mol is so
80g = 22.4mol / 16.04g
oh okay
like that
to actually set it up, i dont know what to do, but i know how to solve it, weird lol
Ch4
so its 16.04
in molar mass
CH4
okay yea so 16.04g/mole, so you have 80 grams of it, start with whatever you have 80gramsCH4 x 1mole/16gCH4 (now grams cancel, we have our same units opposite), so were left with moles of CH4 80/16 moles specifically
notice how the only units youre left with are moles
ill look this up lol for sure
so you want the same units as what you have opposite (so top of fraction or bottom of fraction) from where you start
then id multiply it by that so in a calc itd 80x1/16
and then id get my answer
yes, and then you get moles
i see i see, ill just have to remeber actually setting it up, since i can do the equation in front of me, but the upcomking test and all our work has me make the equation before hand from word problems
which ill get caught up in things like
27gH20x1mol/18.015gx6.02x10^23molcules/1g
yea the important thing to remember is to always cancel your previous unit, and keep your ratios equal
i ended up getting 16.02x10^20 which is wrong apparently
which question is this?
its just outta frame but it ask for
How many moles of water molecules are present in a 27 gram sample of water
which were now adding more operations to the formula lol, so it makes it more complciated
hence here where i got it wrong after coming up with this, from that word problem
actually thats just asking for moles, not molecules so no need to use avagadros
ah okay okay
so just this i think
oh 😭
if it did ask for molecules though (gimme one sec)
sometimes there'll be equations of large units itll have conversion rates (1000 = 1) stuff taht comes before which i also dont entriely understand the preresuquite for it to be needed
np
the important thing is to always convert to moles when it asks for a different unit
such as volume to mass
the 6.02x10^23 is the molecules to make sure
so thats like 1kg=1000g right?
so if it was asking for molecules i wouldve had the formula right 😭
yessir\
or mL to L
which L is different
yes there are 6.02x10^23 molecules or atoms in a mole of an element or compound
22.4 STP
ill just have to get more in the routine of using it ig, ill go to tutoring aswell
well theres 1000mL in one L, but a gas at stp takes up 22.4L
mhm, instead of 6.02x10^23
yea i mean theres a lot of different pathways in this
well theres a lot of things that can equal one mole right, like 2grams of H2/1mole
which is my problem i think, im usually good at math since its just memorization, but ive fallen flat for chemistry
the molar mass of an element is actually equal to the weight of one mole
im aware, it changes, hence why we have 1 mol / (molar mass)
the word problems may be messin g me up bad so ill mess aroudn with formatting it better
im about to be going to bed here, but thanks for answeing

What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
- I have begun but got stuck midway.
show your work then
3a + 5b - 7 = 0
a - 2b - 4 = 0
I stuck in this
because I don't know for this how to go
do you know elimination method
which variable are you trying to eliminate?
a or b
eliminate a first then eliminate b
can someone help me... i need 5 illustrative examples of angle sum theorem..
eliminating one should be sufficient to find the other
how should we do that?
!help
To ask for mathematics help on this server, please open your own help channel or help thread. See #❓how-to-get-help for instructions.
my teacher say that need eliminate a first
after calculate then eliminate b
but I don't know how to do
lets take a different example
x + 2y = 5
2x - 3y = -4
lets eliminate x first
so we can multiply the first eqn by 2
2x + 4y = 10
then subtract both the eqns
?
don't understand
which step?
all
@crimson dawn
there ah?
i may need some chinese explaination or make it simple
let me easy understand
@ocean seal
3a + 5b - 7 = 0
a - 2b - 4 = 0
Yea I'm back mb
你看那两个方程的左边
是3a+5b-7
没事
和
a-2b-4
我老师讲要eliminate a 还能拿到b
之后eliminate b 还能拿到 a
这是对的
我们要把这个方程做一点儿改变
所以我们有
3a+5b-7
和
a-2b-4
a-2b-4 有 a
3a+5b-7 有3a
如果我们把a-2b-4程3
可以变a-2b-4成3a-6b-12
这让这个方程有3a
因为a-2b-4=0
3a-6b-12=0*3
3a-6b-12=0
因为两个方程有3a我们可以减掉那个3a
(3a-6b-12)-(3a+5b-7)=0-0
3a-6b-12-3a-5b+7=0
那两个3a 被减掉
所以-6b-5b-5=0
-11b-5=0
从这应该可以把
@dawn otter
能简单吗
我很难理解
我去吃饭先
OK
@dawn otter Has your question been resolved?
eliminate 什么?
有啊
ok
我先吃晚餐
ok
@lone heart
set mine not complete
你选的是错的
wah
爆头咯
ok
所以那个长度是25-20=5
我们也可以看出绿色的长度是2b+b
ok
在这如果
3R-3S=-10
R-9S=2
把 R-9S=2 程三给我们
3R-27S=6
如果把(3R-3S)-(3R-27)会给24S
所以24S=-6-10
S=-16/24
哎这也很难解释😭
@dawn otter 你可以问你老师吗?
3a + 5b - 7 = 0
a - 2b - 4 = 0
这一个
可以教多一次吗
equation
3a+5b-7=0(equation 1)
a-2b-4=0(equation 2)
3*(equation 2) :
3(a-2b-4)=0*3
3a-6b-12=0(equation 3)
(equation 3)-(equation 1):
(3a-6b-12)-(3a+5b-7)=0
3a-6b-12-3a-5b+7=0
-6b-5b-5=0
-11b-5=0

we did this before break and ngl i forgot everythign. this is a new problem tho
do u guys have any polynomial functions that can graph a heart
im using geogebraaaa
find ur own channel.
oker
Since they're rotating, think of both of them as functions of sine and cosine.
yup
Area would be length × width
i think they want me to find the distance or smthing?
Area of the quadrilateral ABB'A'
it would be the distance formula or smth right
how would that be possible
I'm thinking A(t) = l(t) × w(t)
l(t) can be in terms of sin and w(t) in terms of cosine.
Think of the two dots as oscillating points.
Yes
ok
$l(t)=6\cos(\omega t)\$
$w(t)=6\sin(\omega t)$
GoldBarley
so the center=the midline right
wait i ithought the radius=the amplitude? why is it 6 instead of three
center of the circle? or is that only for problems with one circle
But there are two circles.
so u times 2 because its 2 circles?
Yea, and considering the signs of the trigonometric functions in each quadrant of a unit circle, things should be fine.
what is the omega part?
The angular velocity.
the what?
i havent learned that yet 😭
im a sophomore in high school
$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{time period}$
GoldBarley
ohhh ok
Oh 😅
I thought thinking in terms of oscillations rather than two rotating circles would make things a little easier. Sorry.
yeah its ok. only reason i sorta know oscillations and sine waves is cuz i play around with synthesizers in my free time. so i know the sound but not the visual 
When calculating omega, keep the units in mind. Because it says you'll have to graph A(t) as well.
^
Huh, I didn't think about that. But I think the length function remains unchanged.
I considered length to be the horizontal displacement and the width to be the vertical. So you can add +3 to the width function.
so if its 2π over 8 minutes itd be π over 4 in a minute?
wnat abt phase shift/horizontal shift
I thought of them as independent oscillations (the two circles).
You can add -π to the oscillations of the first circle because they're rotating clockwise.
That will only change the signs of the trig functions, ± π doesn't change the functions themselves.
so in the form of y=asin(bx-c)+d there is no c?
There is a phase difference between the oscillation of both circles.
The first circle is π radians behind the 2nd one.
but what would that look like for l(t) and w(t)
I really think it's best to keep it unchanged 😅
That causes some trouble because then both functions become 0.
Since a phase difference of pi doesn't change the functions themselves, i think it's simpler if we just keep it as it is.
Perhaps l(t)=-6cos(...)
w(t) = well this is getting difficult
w(t)=-6sin(...)
So I think the area remains unchanged.
hmm ok. Ill ask the teacher abt it tmr
u mind if i friend u to dm if i have any questions before class tmr? I needa go to bed but imma attemp the problem on the bus @tough relic
Sure
This is probably what A(t) should look like. I'm not too sure now.
(t in minutes)
says ur not accepting requests. Plz friend me
Oh yes

hello
does anyone have trigonometry questions??????
@waxen turtle Has your question been resolved?
@waxen turtle Has your question been resolved?
can somebody help me with finding the x values in equations like this: x^2+10x=-12
i think u move the 12 to the other side and factor
quadratic equation :>
wow
@waxen turtle Has your question been resolved?
can you send the raw data set
like in a txt file
actually you dont even need to do allat
find the position with (P/100) * (n+1),
where P would be 79, for 79th percentile
whatever number it is, round up and down to find out what positions your value is inbetween
and interpolate
(lower value) + (the decimal part of your original value) * (upper value - lower value)
round to one decimal place
and thats your number
is 0.999... + 0.000...1 = 1?
What is even 0.000...1
How many zeroes are there?
infinitely many
And how would you define such a number?
For example, 0.37 = 3/10 + 7/100
0.1337 = 1/10 + 3/100 + 3/1000 + 7/10000
So you basically add up fractions
A number with infinitely many digits is represented as series
Series for 0.999... is 9/10 + 9/100 + 9/1000 + ... + 9/10^k + ... = 1
(sum of geometric progression)
And now hopefully this question makes sense ^
is there latex here?
yes
\sum
$\sum$
spindle
$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{10^n}$
ye91
Yeah that's how you define 0.111...
$\lim_{n \to \infty} 10^{-n}$
ye91
zero
the limit is zero
Which object are you refering to?
?
$\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}10^{-n}$ is a well-defined real number. In fact, it's $0$
spindle
the limit is zero
it's never 0
if we say that that's zero
what's the point of limits
infinity is a concept
it doesn't work with real manipulations
Let's make it clear: $10^{-n}$ is never zero for any natural $n$. However, $\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}10^{-n}$ is zero (literally and mathematically)
spindle
just because some mathematicians said so doesn't make it true literally
its basic logic
I think you misunderstand the concept of definitions in mathematics
Limit of a sequence has a strict definition
$a \in \mbb{R}$ is the limit of a sequence ${a_n}$ iif for any $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $N \in \mbb{N}$ such that for all $n > N$ the following holds: $|a - a_n| < \varepsilon$
spindle
because we will always get bigger numbers
Verfiy this for a=0, a_n = 10^{-n}
if we don't use that then the area under the graph will just be equal to the limits
which is not true
Alright at this point I think you're just trolling
I'm not
I don't like definitions that exist simply because that's how they look
it's not intelligent
wdym
and could be wrong
How a definition can be wrong? As long as the object being defined exists, the definition is correct
well infinity is not defined
In mathematics we have a collection of certain axioms. We then build more stuff on top of those axioms by introducing definitions and proving theorems
The entire thing is purely logical
I'm not even mentioning infinity anywhere, look at this definition of the limit: #help-0 message
is 1 = 0.999...?
Yes
ok well now your playing with infinity
0.999... really means "the limit of the sequence 0.9, 0.99, 0.999, ..."
The sequence is well-defined, the limit is well-defined
it's a limit
a limit to an infinite series
which only approaches the limit
which is why it's called a limit
which why it'll never reach the limit
well it's numbers
numbers are infinite
it's like saying that the expansion of the universe is equal to some value
the universe is infinite
it will never reach a limit
sorry I meant space in the universe, but yea I think the rate of expansion is also increasing
lol I just had an argument with a kid at school about 0.999... equals 1 so I came on here
I mean it's inherently simple logic
Again, of course the elements of the sequence don't reach the limit, but we're talking about the limit itself
We define an infinite decimal fraction as the limit of a certain sequence
So $0.999...$ is really just a shortcut for $\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}\sum_{k=1}^n \frac{9}{10^k}$
spindle
And by definition of the limit this number is 1
Again, I know that $\left{\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{9}{10^k}\right}_{n\in\mbb{N}}$ doesn't contain $1$, but the limit of the corresponding sequence is $1$, and that's what we assign to $0.999...$
spindle
My bad, should've redirected them
We can proceed in a separate help channel if you want

@waxen turtle Has your question been resolved?
Hello, sorry for the time it took to get some help, I'll be giving you some right away
Since you needed to get the 79th percentile, k will be 79 here
Since there is 117 numbers in the data set, as stated in the exercise, we will have n=117
The result from this calculation will normally give you a number which will be looking similar to the numbers in the dataset. More precisely, it will either be exactly like a number in the data set, or it will be in between two of them
If it's the same, then you just found your percentile
If it's not, then you will be able to calculate your percentile with the two values besides the one you found with the previous calculation with this :
With d, being the number minus the floor of that number (we also call this the decimal part)
And your previous number being in between $x_i$ and $x_{i+1}$

Ow okay lmao very sorry, no pressure then !
@waxen turtle Has your question been resolved?
OK IM HERE
Idk how
<@&286206848099549185>
I tried this but it was wrong
<@&286206848099549185>
@waxen turtle 64th percentile means 64% of all people have less than X score. How many people are 64% of this population?
like 26
I think
Omg i got 26.24
The population is 40, and so 64% is 40 * 0.64 = 25.6
okkk
Unfortunately, fiddly bits about how to handle the 0.6 person exactly, and whether it's less than or equal or strictly less than depends on the exact definitions that your text uses, so I would ask that you give your text's definitions
i think it is like a decimal number idk
Wat do I do
The essence of percentile is this idea
@waxen turtle
I'd honestly say the answer is just "64" or "63" depending if you're using < or ≤ in the definition
But I'd have to see your definition of percentile to tell you for certain
I'd have to see your definition of percentile to tell you for certain
I'd have to see your definition of percentile to tell you for certain
Idek waht it is
It should be in your book
heeh
Is it 23.76?
Guys what's the Taylor Lagrange formula in order 2 of tanx
Around 0
<@&268886789983436800>
"Your previous number being in between $x_i$ and $x_{i+1}$" as I said. And it was 26.24, so it is in between 26 and 27. So here it would have been $x_i=26$ and $x_{i+1}=27$
Epsilia aka Epe
Other than htat the rest was good
You can see how there is multiple ways to approach things like these. Although I'm surprised you haven't had any sort of definition, like a proper course ??

Give the bot time to do things
Ok
You need to type .coose not .close in this case

Why is a Hilbert space?
bot still hasnt closed this?

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).
But the short answer is that it's a closed subspace of a hilbert space
Yeah
but I can show that this space is closed in the space 𝐻^1 (0,1).

the answer is supposed to be $\frac{1}{2}log|tan{\frac{x}{2}+\frac{\pi}{6}|$

why tf r u doing integrals swerriee
that's such a mess
try to rewrite the denominator using the identity
it's probably the same integral
$a\sin x +b\cos x= R\sin(x+a)$
yajat
where $R=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}$ and $\alpha=\arctan \frac{b}{a}$
yajat
You don't have to do allat
once it becomes a function of sin, convert it into csc and use $$\int \csc x \text{d} x = \ln |\tan\frac{x}{2}|$$
yajat
yea that's just #help-0 message
why shouldn't I lol
you're a commerce student, aren't u?
commerce with maths exists
just in case you forgot
there's no way they teach this level of integrals in commerce
whta
this is ncert pal
stop being so egotistic
...mpc students and mec students study from the same book.
OH WELL GUYS MY FINAL INTEGRATION RESULT MIGHT BE WRONG
I ALWAYS FORGET INT SEC X DX
how is that being egoistic?
wow
,w int sec x dx\
r u serious lmfao
what's that
mpc, mec 🤔
pcm and commerce eco maths
yea im sorry js ignore the last part im sure u can handle that
I'm trying
do you know how to derive int sec x dx?
Log(secx+tanx)?
yes, and don't forget the +C
yeah
this should be that
i messed up, mb
but it's still not the same is it
they told js to get the same answer whatsoever
I'm sure they used that formula
um a min
yes they did
or did they
in what world do you need to use this for that problem
it's just overcomplicating stuff
,w int 1/(sinx + √3 cosx) dx
what if I converg it into sin(a+b) n trh
well then you'd have 1/2 int 1/(cos(pi/3)sin(x) + sin(pi/3)cos(x)) = 1/2 int 1/(sin(x+pi/3) dx
1/2 int csc(x+pi/3) dx
I GOT IT
i mean it's still the same function, you'd just get the answer in different forms
yesssss
and then int of cosecx is log(tanx/2)
thank you!!

@smoky marten Has your question been resolved?
you need help with question b ?
Yes
I do this and i dont know if it is correct
i’ll try and see if i get the same value give me a minute
i tried to make the steps as clear as possible lmk if there’s something you don’t get
@smoky marten
I think this is incorrect
Thanks you but i need to go to my school

can someone help me with this.
you have to find the shaded area
can you first try writing down the equation?
have you seen this before?
for any triangle that has a right angle (90 degrees)
okay
here, what is a b and c?
smth..
any guesses?
4.357995321
of this triangle
b and c are equal..?
yay
yup
omg
so fill that into a^2+b^2=c^2
in this.
yes, but you didnt fill in a and b
a=x
b=x
yes.
Bonk
(keep it in exact form)
first
solve that
write x^2+x^2 as 2x^2
are you writing along?
yes
Bonk
agreed?
you got what?
nothing
(are you sending a photo?)
times?
divide..?
i think dividing left and right hand side by 2 is more preferable
you wanna take it over?
