are you familiar with the trig formula for area of a triangle?
sir anyone know?
@wheat shore this channel is occupied, please move.
;-; where?
a channel that isn't occupied
does anyone know what a phase line portrait is
oh
is the (trig) formula for the area of a triangle
where a and b represent the lengths of two sides and C is the angle between them
first set up an equation (applying this formula)
yes done
what's your equation
4.5 = 1/2 (3)(4) sin(C)
oh i should use A?
be consistent with what's presented in the question
ok, I believe i should use A
oh i should solve for A?
A not a
sin(A) will be 0.75
ok
and then using inverse trig and apply properties of sine to determine the two solutions to that (for 0<A<180°)
by the time you're given this problem, you should have an idea of how to do those things
sorry
you should at least know how to use inverse trig from right triangle trignometry
have you done any trigonometry problems with right triangles before?
yes, but i vaguely remember
eg would you be able to find an approximate value for x here?
sin(x) = 3/7
so you haven't seen anything resembling:
x = arcsin(3/7) = sin^-1(3/7)
?
do you at least understand what's been written there?
given a trigonometric ratio, the appropriate inverse trig function can be used to help determine possible angles
given that
sin(A) = 0.75
you can apply the inverse sine to both sides to get the value of A between 0 and 90°
A = sin^-1(0.75) will give you one of the values they want
How do you calculate the power of hypothesis testing when using chi square distribution? I found the critical chi square value under H_0 but I don't know how to find the power
applying properties of sine,
sin(180° - A) = sin(A)
(and that you triangle could be acute or obtuse)
180° - sin^-1(0.75)
would be another possible value for A
I can find the power when using t distribution or normal distribution, but chi square just throws me for a loop
(and you can use a calculator to get an decimal approximation for those angles)
ok
How would I find a general solution to a matrix when I havent been given a b vector, but three unique solutions for it
i think you may have an issue with your wording
if there's three solutions then they aren't unique
uh so I have equations with 4 unknowns, but i dont have a given b vector
ohh oops
yh specific solutions is probably a better way to word it
so you're considering a linear system Ax = b, and you're not given A nor b, but you're given three different values of x which you're told are solutions to it?
no?
am i correct in understanding that you are given three vectors x1, x2 and x3 and are told they are all solutions to Ax=b
uh yep
then b will be A times any one of those.
but like even in my matrix i have like unknown coefficients
you have $Ax_1 = b$
Ann
yh
and also $Ax_2 = b$ and also $Ax_3 = b$
Ann
it would help if you showed the whole problem exactly as stated.
I dont exactly have the whole problem
$\begin{pmatrix}
-30 & q & r & s\
0 & 0 & -5 & t\
0 & 0 & 0 & 0\
\end{pmatrix}$
legend27
this is the matrix im given
that's A?
yep
$\begin{pmatrix} -2 \ -1 \ -2 \ 10 \end{pmatrix}$
legend27
$\begin{pmatrix} -8 \ 4 \ -4 \ -15 \end{pmatrix}$
legend27
$\begin{pmatrix} 1 \ -7 \ 5 \ 30 \end{pmatrix}$
legend27
general solution for the system
ahhh
if you know your way around linear systems, that is. because there's a trick.
first, observe that our A is in row-echelon form
yep
and there are 2 free variables and 2 pivots
yep
therefore our solution space will have dimension 2
yep 2 parameters
okay now you have three solutions given to you: $$s_1 = \bmqty{-2\-1\-2\10}, s_2 = \bmqty{-8\4\-4\-15}, s_3 = \bmqty{1\-7\5\30}$$
Ann
i've renamed them from x to s to hopefully have less notational conflicts later on
yh thats fine
so $As_1 = As_2 = As_3 = b$ (even if we don't know $b$)
Ann
this also means that $A(s_2-s_1) = 0$ and $A(s_3-s_1) = 0$
Ann
right
thus s2-s1 and s3-s1 are solutions of the homogeneous system Ax = 0
ahhhh
and you know that general sol = particular + homogeneous sol
so you have your general solution as $$x = s_1 + \alpha (s_2 - s_1) + \beta (s_3 - s_1)$$ where $\alpha, \beta \in \bR$
Ann
so $x = a + (\textrm{ General sol to Ax=0 })$
legend27
yes
Notice that ABC is a right-angled triangle, where BC would be our hypothenuse, right?
yuh i figured it out kinda
oh so you dont need help?
uh go dm
Ann sorry to disturb you once more, but would I need to find general solutions to Ax=0 or would specific solutions work as well?
I can explain it here
well you can check manually that s2-s1 and s3-s1 are linearly independent
or at least they should be
uhh i havent gotten that far in linear algebra lol
ahhhh
lemme find a helpful diagram for you
@alpine sable there we go
Ill post this again so that we dont have to keep scrolling up again
So now we have to find theta in this case
we have been given the opposite and the adjacent values, so what trig function would we use? @alpine sable
uh. I guess we would use toa
na its allg
16/9 rigth?
so we know now that $\tan(\theta) = \dfrac{\textrm{Opposite}}{\textrm{Adjacent}}$
legend27
yes
so $\tan(\theta) = \dfrac{16}{9}$
legend27
yes yse
now to find theta, we need to take the tab inverse of both sides
$\tan^{-1}(\tan(\theta))=\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac{16}{9}\right)$
i got 60.64 degrees
legend27
that seems to be the answer
could you double check just in case
What is $\int e^{-x^2} dx$
yep i just did
256bitEncoder
And why is it so special?
from what i know that that integrand doesnt have a anti-derivative
Ohh that's makes sense with erf(x) function
yep
we can find the value if we add bounds @strange plover
@strange plover maybe you wanna read this, if you have the time
@alpine sable sorry man, im kinda busy rn, i have some uni things to do
Yeah I will sure read it
maybe someone else in this server can help you
@grizzled ingot yo
oooooooooooo makes more sense
lol ok
had to open that one in browser
its still wrong though
when u factor that out
what about the 8x^2 times the second part
it wont be 9x^2 -1
$(x^2-1)^4+8x^2(x^2-1)^3=(x^2-1)(x^2-1)^3+8x^2(x^2-1)^3\$ Now factoring $(x^2-1)^3$ out, we have $\(x^2-1)^3(x^2-1+8x^2)$
111211211111221312211
and then group like terms
We all know the generalized stokes theorem $\int_{\partial M} \omega = \int_M d\omega$
So the integral of differential forms over curved space is meaningful, but from tensor calculus I know a fact that taking integral of a tensor in curved space is meaningless so what's the point?
256bitEncoder
can someone help me. i gotta find the x of the given figure
@foggy onyx Do you know how similar triangles work?
i forgot-
OK, similar triangles have all three angles the same, and the sides of one get multiplied by the same number to get the sides of the other.
So, let's look at the left side of the triangle.
See the two marks on each part of that side?
Like an equal sign?
No, the marks on the left side of the triangle.
Do you see the left side of the triangle?
What isn't?
Oh, OK.
<@&286206848099549185> Hey!, Could someone please help me out?

@strange plover Please read #❓how-to-get-help. @Helpers is only for use 15 minutes after posting a question, and you're not supposed to post a question to multiple channels.
Sorry I wasn't getting an answer but I ensured that 15 mins pass and it basically passed in every channel. Sorry for inconvenience.
How do i get the answers?\
You should learn about mid point theorem ... All the problems hera are based upon that
@sonic snow The top and entire triangles are similar triangles.
okok
not sure what the integral is that I should setup is
Chai T. Rex
Ahh, thanks Ann.
Can someone explain how i got this wrong, CAS says the answer is -380x^18
This is the question.
such bad notation in the notes
as in my answer or the question?
as in they shouldn't have used those $\floor{\ }$ which indicates floor
ℝamonov
what you did seems ok
yes
mmmm.
what exactly is the problem?
Do you know how to find the highest value in a matrix in excel/spreadsheet?
no but im trying wanna do this with just my pen and paper
So could you please elaborate a bit more on where you are exactly stuck?
What exactly do you not know to get an answer
with the total baseline added up for 12 months
thats my total kwh for the year
right?
that's not peak consumption though if i am understanding correctly
yeah this " peak consumption "
Guys?
as far as i understand it should just be the highest entry in the baselines
Can normal one forms exist?
okay so how can i find peak consumption
find the biggest number in the baselines?
that will be august = 27.13
Good and now that you know the peak consumption, calculate how much march's baseline is compared to that in %
march is 10.64
so what percentage is that of 27.13?
10.64/27.13 * 100%?
yes!
Hey, there!
yes that should be correct
Hey guys could I ask a calculus related question?
hold on 256 , there is an hard equation question being solve atm
Oh ok
I don't know, this was just what the question asked you to calculate
round to 2 decimal
is 39.22
wow
thanks
!!
thats correct answer
thanks glitched!
!close
Sorry but I didn't find any unoccupied channels that were active. Is this one free now?
yeah free
So the question is that how can we take the integrals of one forms over a curved space.
looks right to me
alright, thank you.
but integers are in rational numbers
So the site is wrong?
I think it is the notation
sets do not belong to other sets
they are subsets of other sets
is the set of all integers a rational number
time
you can have a set of sets (e.g. the power set)
you can't have a set of all sets
but $a \in A \subset B \neq A \in B$
PrettyPrincessKitty FS
you need to know the difference between $\in$ (element-of) and $\subseteq$ (subset)
Ann
$x \in \bQ$ means ``$x$ is a rational number''
Ann
alright
and $\bZ$ refers to the entire set of integers. not ``an integer'', the entire set of integers as a single unit.
Ann
Ann
thank you very much
Hey, there! Is Angular momentum different from a vector quantity?
As far as I know it is neither scalar nor vector
classically, angular momentum is a vector
uhh 
@strange plover According to the following page, angular momentum is a vector: https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-physics/chapter/vector-nature-of-rotational-kinematics/.
What does the line above z mean?
Oh, complex conjugate.
Yes
Chai T. Rex
there is no work i genuinely dont even understand what is being asked
they want you to find out complex numbers z which satisfy the equation z^3=z'
that is another way of doing it
it's asking for all solutions for z where that is true. Would probably recommend multiplying both sides by z and solve that and/or writing in polar form
Z^4=|Z|^2?
yep and then we have z=|z|e^(i\theta)
e?
cis(theta) can also be represented by e^i(theta)
i need to go over the textbook again i guess none of this sounds familiar
no you don't you probably haven't learnt it
the e^(itheta) they're talking about is just your cis(theta)
dunno what cis theta is either : (
Pls help
cis(theta) is cos(theta)+isin(theta)
(i do see it in the picture i posted )
use a different channel this one is busy
Can anyone help ??
oh.
Ok
can also be done with expanding (a+bi)^3=(a-bi) then remember both real and imaginary part must be equal. So we can write 2 equations with 2 unknown and solve that (more tedious than what I suggested but works)
im going over the chapter for this again ;x
wait so when using polar coordinates
do i need theta or tan(theta)
Expanding (a+bi)^3 gives us:
(a+bi)^3=a^3-3ab^2+i(3a^2b-b^3)
For z^3 to be equal to z conjugate we must have real and imaginary parts equal, so
a^3-3ab^2=a and 3ba^2-b^3=-b
Then solving above gives the solutions.
theta
can someone please help with this q
can you make an equation for the length of the rectangle
@marble otter channel taken please move
oh ok
(unless scapeprof and corylus are done)
i might have followups but its going to be sporadic as im reading through this i wouldnt claim the channel for this
maybe just to confirm this is ok
Oh guys actually I found Angular momentum to be a bivector totally unfamiliar to me
me?
I meant that the term "bivector" is not familiar to me
how exactly do you go from tan(theta) to theta?
im noticing in all the examples in the book its assumed to be something known and obvious
i goes directly from calculating the tan to choosing which of the theta options are correct
arctan..?
moshill1
the wiki is kind of loaded is there a simple calculation for it? like how tan theta is y/x
the button on your calculator. . .
@Corylus $tan^{-1}(x)$ basically gives the angle that helps u to create a tangent line with length tan(x)
256bitEncoder
R u fine with the solutions u got?
If not then just mention.:)
oh no i dont have the slightest inkling of understanding about any of this
right now trying to understand how you go from tan theta = -sqrt(3) to theta=2pi/3
knowing exact values or calculator and knowing what quadrant
tan^-1 of -sqrt(3) gives me -60 on my calc but i dont even know if im doing it wrong or its a different way to write it
It actually has a intuitive meaning but is often calculated on calculator as it is just a compositional inverse of a function.
yes that's the quad4 angle, 300degrees or 5pi/3
@glass lichen is right
quad4?
quadrant 4
how do you get that from -60
cause it went 60 clockwise
oh its backwards circle from 360
man this would have been so much easier if they actually taught the relevant information
$Q_4: \theta\in\left(\frac{3\pi}{2},2\pi\right)=\left(0,-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)$
moshill1
If u want some more explanation u can go to #geometry-and-trigonometry
ok and how do i go from this to pi?
convert between deg and radians
@_@
60 degrees is pi/3
can i convert on the calc as well?
yeah. .
Use trig identities
So I think I got the last one
But the first one I think I wasn’t supposed to get this answer
So I’m wondering how it’s supposed to even look
Such as $1 - sin²(\theta) = cos²(\theta)$
what button is that? ;x
256bitEncoder
No fucking clue, idk what calc you have.
Kinda lost tbh
And inverse trigonometric functions
Get $\alpha$ and $ \beta$ by $sin^{-1}(\theta) and cos^{-1}(\theta)$ then ur good to go :)
256bitEncoder
So in this case
It would be...
How did I get 0 🤦♂️
I definetly am doing something wrong
I just want to se show you did 1 so I can do the rest
256bitEncoder
So do I write this way as an answer for example: (12/13) or so I literally write the whole thing
Wait I am telling the vals
And the whole thing I mean the whole a=sin-1 (40/41
Of alpha and beta
Yeah I was kinda confused why lol
Alpha approximately is 77.3 degrees
Beta is approx 67.3
Welcome
:)
LRLRLRLRLRLRLR
<@&268886789983436800> le epic trolls come to raid
So cos of it is -0.99 approx
So 143.61 or just -0.99 as the answer?
Oh sorry my unit circle had a mistake
I didn't see the rads and degrees form
It's -0.809
Is it -0.322
Which should I use
U can't get a value that low because 144.6 is real close to 180
The one that's listed
If it isn't then insure to put degree symbol
So can you show a way of how u did it all in order for the first one so I don’t miss anything
0.5605
0.00978
These r radians not degrees
I can't use inverse trig functions
U should use radicals I believe
Idk then
Radicals r essential for this question
I am a physics student so I work with degrees
Where I can use inverse funcs
you can use inverse functions with radians as well
why would inverse functions not work with radians
Oh u mean to convert into degrees
Radians*
Te get it
But @proper hare has a bit different problem can u help him out
I am not great at trigonometry
arcsin(1)=pi/2 , arcsin(1/2)=pi/6 arcsin(sqrt(3)/2)=pi/3
Hey I did that one I’m good on that one guys!
Now this one I need help
If I can get both these I can do the rest
It’s just these 2 are more difficult than usual
those look a lot like the format of the compound angle formulas ay
they sure do
True
just a passing observation
Could someone help with these 2? Would mean so much 🙂
try using the formula sin(A-B)=sinA.cosB - cosA.sinB
Is it this
Yeah
correct..
For both?
exact answer
?
yess
.8660 is not exact
Then what is it
with fraction
?
the bottom box wants sqrt(3)/2
and the top one wants the single trig function you evaluated to get sqrt(3)/2
But I’d it’s not what I said for decimal idk
$sin(2\pi/3)$
ie sin(2*pi/3)
What is the exact decimal then
256bitEncoder
I mean top box
please use actual latex with the bot 🥺
What is the top box supposed to be
The value is irrational, there is no exact decimal

Bro
the top one says to write the trig function you used to get sqrt(3)/2
1st box is sin(3π/4)
lmao
,w sin(3pi/4)
Guys
Pls see the first ques
Says to write ans as
Sine of a expression
2π/3
I am an idiot typo psycho sry
And then u have to write fac
Fraction
In second one
Wait really
Yeah it says that express it as sien and the expression should be fraction or integer
Can someone assist me in 4 if anyone is free?
not really, have you seen $\sin^2(\theta)+\cos^2(\theta)=1$?
Element118
erm... no
don't just blindly plug stuff in
I’m not
you can get two more equivalent identities by dividing $\sin^2(\theta)+\cos^2(\theta)=1$ by $\sin^2(\theta)$ and $\cos^2(\theta)$, try it out
Like put that as box 1 or actually do it
Element118
I get 0
This is really off
What is it supposed to come out as
I am definetly missing something unless I get what you get
Okay, I got the answer, but idk how to explain it
it's supposed to be equal to sec t - cos t
Let's try this exercise: Divide both sides of $\sin^2(\theta)+\cos^2(\theta)=1$ by $\sin^2(\theta)$
Element118
You'll get an equivalent form of the Pythagorean identity
also try dividing by cos^2 theta
So on the top I was just supposed to do COs t because
erm... I don't get what you mean
Okay, basically you are supposed to find an expression equivalent to tan^2 t
to keep equality
@woeful pulsar can I dm u to show what I did?
hmm, I guess
have you tried it out yet? @proper hare
the exercise dividing by both sin^2 and cos^2
,rotate
ignore the writing on the right
prove that if $f(x)=\sin^{-1}(x)$, then we have the fact that $f(-x)=-f(x)$
moshill1
aren't we supposed to use substitution
and not function theory
or are we allowed to use that
function theory?
I just wrote f(x) to save me writing \sin^{-1}()
-f(x)=f(-x)
. . .
the question is to verify that something is odd
so all we know is sin is odd
part a is: Use the fact that sine is odd to show that $\sin^{-1}(-x)=-\sin^{-1}(x)$
moshill1
Can anyone help with an accounting question?
channel occupied
you can start by showing that $\sin(-\theta)=x$
moshill1
which just stems from the definition of theta in the question and the oddness of sine
im left with this
any help?
$\sin^{-1}(x)=-\theta$
channel occupied
abe
$\theta = \sin^{-1}(-x)\implies \sin(\theta)=-x\implies x=-\sin(\theta)\ x=\sin(-\theta)\implies \sin^{-1}(x)=-\theta$
moshill1
in use
abe
right
yes, then isolate for x
$\implies \sin(\theta)=-x \ $
Now, $\sin(-\theta)=-\sin(\theta)\$
$\implies \sin(-\theta)=x \ $
So, $-\sin(\theta)=x \ $
$\therefore \theta = -\sin^{-1}(x)$
Yea
@carmine lion r u gud in calc I got a question if u don't mind
Related to stokes theorem
dont ping random users. Just ask the question in an unused channel and be patient
Oh ok
IN AN UNUSED CHANNEL
Like $\int_M d\omega$
Oh sry ❤️
abe
is that working good
No
huh
cause you did -sin(t)=sin(-t)=-sin(t)
where
which doesnt progress you anywhere
and the therefore statement came out of nowhere
the Now, line
whats wrong with that
the line after that doesnt progress you towards the answer
cause it undoes what you did
$\theta=\sin^{-1}(-x) \implies x=-\sin(\theta) \implies x=\sin(-\theta)\implies -\theta =\sin^{-1}(x)$
moshill1
condensed it, so obviously in the final answer it would be flushed out
yeah
but i don't want that
yes you do
i want -sin^{-1}(-x)
what????
oh wait nvm
No you dont
You'll have that $\theta = \sin^{-1}(-x)$ and that $\theta =-\sin^{-1}(x)$
moshill1
so $\sin^{-1}(-x)=-\sin^{-1}(x)$
moshill1
QED
$\qed$
abe
ty
this channel is now open
and to whoever asked me
i have not even learned calculus yet
so don't bother pinging me
ur wasting both of our time
what have you tried?
I don’t know where to start.
find a less active channel which doesn't have a message just one minute ago
do you know what slope is?
Yes 1/6
Yes that’s the slope of the line
abe
do you notice anything here @safe sable
Would I do 1-y=1/6(5-x)?
$\frac{1}{6}=\frac{y-1}{17-5}$
abe
right?
Not sure.
you're given the value of the gradient
and if you know the gradient formula
then you can solve for an unknown coordinate
right?
So then I would take 17-5 and multiply it by 1/6?
$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \text{ or } \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$
abe
correct
you can easily find y2 as well now right?
y should be 3
hey can someone help me decipher a problem, i dont even understand where to start
Then i divide by 6 on each side, to get 2=y-1
yes
Do I move the y to the other side and change the sign?
Ok, so 3=y then correct?
yep
Thank you.
well done c:
yo @carmine lion u got some time?
<@&286206848099549185>
"for a quadratic function describes y=f(x). y'=0 when x=3. Find the highest and lowest values between 1<= x <=6"
so i understand that when x=3 there is either a minimum or maximum point
idk what to do here
3?
oh nvm its 6
in this interval
english is hard
uh wait
is it just 6 is maximum, 1 is minimum and 3 is middle point
"extremepoint"
for this quadratic function
the maximum of the entire function is at x =3
or minimum
the extrema
this means that the function is moved by 3
because the normal quadratic is x = 0
is the extrema
does that make sense?
yep
alright
shapewise
yeps
alright
so we know for a fact that that is either a minimum or maximum
yep
because it is the global minimum or maximum
in the entire complete function
so if it is in our interval
it is also the minimum or maximum
you agree?
yep
alright
so at x = 3 we have one
what else do we know about quadratics
we know they're symmetrical
yep
this means that if the dy/dx = 0 point of the quadratic is at x = 3
is this a channel where i can ask about runtime and correctness of an algorithm?
ok so its highest or lower point is at dy/dx = 0
so we know it goes out from that point
yes
the other point that we want
lets say for the sake of understanding that our dy/dx = 0 point is the maximum
alright
for clarity
it can be either maximum or minimum but for clarity it is maximum
we know that the function goes down on either side of that point
you agreE?
yea but
my book says minimum and maximum
not either
which is incredibly confusing
im guessing both minimum and maximum is the same then
because we know it is symmetrical and goes down in both direction from x = 3
in our interval
[1, 6]
we need to find the x value that is furthest away from x = 3
because that would be the most down
does that make sense?
yea
what do we do to find the furthest away from x = 3?
ah
holdup lemme show a graph to explain
so 6?
exactly
since its 3 away while 1 is 2 away
i see
we have the interval [1, 6]
with the dy/dx = 0 point at x = 3
see how the x = 6 is the minimum in the interval
telescopic sum i guess
the same induction that is used to show f(n)=n^2 can be used to show that sum
ye i understand now
tyvm
im at the part of the mathbook where each problem takes like 10-15mins cause i have to draw graphs and calculate functions by hand its so annoying
gotcha
that helps
geogebra.org/classic type in :
a = 1
b = 1
if(1<=x<=6, a(x-3)^2 + b)
that is the generalized version
play with a and b
it shows you that it doesn't matter what a and b are
x = 3 and x = 6 will always be the answers
i c
anyway
tyty
@woeful pulsar I think istill need to be clarified on how they get to n(k^2 - 1 + n)
solve $\dv{y}{x}=\frac{-2}{25}$
moshill1
how
algebra
yeah so you have f(1)=k^2
can you calculate f(2)?
f(2)=f(1)+f(1)+2
and you can continue f(3), f(4) and so on
it means you need to find out the asked angles for given polygons
hi, when exactly is sum of averages different than average of sums? when variables are not independent?
I forgot
context?
sorry, just analyzing elapsed time in a workflow. An analyst calculated the total average time of workflow cases as the sum of the averages (of all cases) of times on each stage of the workflow. I was challenging whether we should also calculate the sum of times of all steps and then average them. I think I recall it's not always the same.
im a dumb bitch
yeah, that makes a bit of sense
what if one step is performed 100 times and another step is performed 10 times>
