It is terrible written but first graph is f(x) and second graph is g(x) so if you approach from + it means you approach from right side so it is -2
and -2 is g(x)
yes
no problem

Quick question, I'm really stuck on the concavity here
So I was able to find the second derivative, and I found that with any negative number, the answer would come out as positive, thus the concavity is upwards when t < 0
But it keeps marking it incorrectly and I can't necessarily see why
It asks for interval notation, so maybe you have to write [ (-\infty , 0 ) ]

how do i complete the square
Start by factoring out the coefficient of the squared terms with the squared terms themselves and the ^1 term
Nonna
then do i move the 100 to the other side?
Keep it there for now
now it's easy to complete the squares
let's complete together 4(z² - 10z), shall we?
4(z^2-10z+25)?
yup
But!
We added something that wasn't there before
that's 25 in this case
to make our equation still true, we can subtract it immediately after
There's another caveat
25 was multiplied by 4 because of the parenthesis, so we will have to subtract 100
So our square, completed, looks something like this:
4(z² - 10z + 25) - 25 * 4
= 4(z - 5)² - 100
Do you understand?
not the last part
Where, exactly?
this
Let's say we have an equation,
n = n n can be whatever you want.
Of course, if we add something to the left side, like we did to complete the square, it doesn't hold true anymore
n + k ≠ n if k is not 0
To make things right, we can sum k to both sides
n + k = n + k
or subtract it immediately after
n + k - k = n
But when we added 25, we also multiplied it by 4 because of the parenthesis
4(whatever + 25), if you expand that you get 4 * whatever + 100,
so actually, we added 100, not 25
Sure, if you want that's 4(x + 0)², but it seems useless to write it like that
Thank you

i need help completing the square
Wait didn't someone just help you with this
so what do you have so far
4x^2+(y^2-4y)+4(z-5)^2-100=0
would i do (y-2)^2?
wait where did you get the -100 from btw? in the equation you just posted
this
oh bet
so you've got 4x^2 + (y^2-4y) + 4(z-5)^2 = 0
and yep you would do (y-2)^2 that's correct!
but then what do you have to subtract out at the end
-2?
then i move 4 to the other side?
yep!
how do i do completeing the square for (x^2-2x+1)+(y^2-4y+4)-z=0

look for some other angles that you do know how to solve for. there ought to be at least one that's immediate.
also recall some things about triangles and their angles.
Wait, take a step back. What are you first trying to find?
Yes, but what do we need to be able to find angle A?
We need more information.
i think this is a "show don't tell" scenario.
i suggest that you find this angle i've marked in red.
Ye
well you could say it like that, yes.
Yeah, but I'm ngl I've never heard of the 3rd angle theorem.
What you are doing is correct tho.
If a triangle has angles a b and c, the exterior angle of a = b+c
Exterior angle theorem? Never heard of 3rd angle either
Yes, exterior angle theorem.
What type of triangle is this?
So, do you know a property of an isosceles triangle that would help us find x or y?
Ye.
So like, you found one angle.
And the angle that you found is congruent to which other angle?
👍
So now we know that lower left angle and y. Now, we can use a known fact about triangles to find x.

the nature of the material is the same, find the resistance of A.
Suppose that you wish to fabricate a uniform wire out of 1.0 g of copper. The resistance of wire is to be 0.5
ohm and if all of the copper are to be used, what will be the diameter of wire? Specific resistance is 1.7x10*

Like, find something perpendicular to (1,-3)?
In 2D such a question makes sense, but for most vectors it doesn't
Or at least, I don't know how wolfram would display them all?

✅
orthogonal vectors are those which have a dot product of zero with the original vector
this means that if you see the original vector as a matrix A then you get Ax=0
vectors x that satisfy Ax=0 are in the null space of A
x is a vector
the vector? not really sure what you are asking
(0,1)
well relying on wolfram is a crutch anyway
you should know what it means to be orthogonal
and be able to calc all that stuff yourself
if the vector has 3 components then the space of all orthogonal vectors is 2 dimensional
in general if v is an orthogonal vector then so is cv for any scalar c
so there is no unique choice v in any case
there is no "the" orthogonal unit vectors
there are 6 different orthogonal unit vectors
one choice is c*(2, 4, 0, 0) because clearly the (2,4,0,0) is orthogonal because the dot product is 0 and then we normalize with the length c=1/sqrt(2^2+4^2) so that it is a unit vector
you can be asked to find a perpendicular vector
but not the perpendicular vector
clearly red blue and green are all perpendicular to v
and a lot of other choices aswell
and if I could paint in 3d I would also give you an example in 3d space
where you have even more options
because you can also now go in a third "direction"
which rule
u and v are orthogonal if the dot product of u and v is 0, yes
you can only multiple a mxn matrix with a sxt matrix if n=s
here you are trying to multiply 2x1 with 2x1 which doesn't work
I don't know how you specify for wolfram alpha that you want to calculate the dot product of two vectors
you can also use the dot product from wolfram alpha, but then you need to enter row vectors
,w {5,0}.{a,b}
we already saw that the dot product is equal to 5a
so you are trying to solve 5a=0 for b
clearly any choice of b is valid here
and this shouldn't be a surprise, because clearly any vector (0,b) is orthogonal to (5,0)
how about you learn how to do this stuff by hand

What did I do wrong here? My answer sheet says the answer is x = 2
i've learned a bit of log but not that good so i might be wrong
why did you multiply the left side of the equation by log(10^5)
Bc 5 = equal to that
anyways.... i dont think that log(a) * log(b) = loh(ab)

I'm stuck on question D
what you wrote will not be helpful here.
prefer writing tan(3x) as tan(2x+x) and making use of the result of part c.
oh
so
it didn't want me to use the double angle formulae
for part D
okay that makes it easier lmao thanks
formulae, plural?
or just the one for tan
also can i see the instructions not to use those in writing please?
it didn't say that
I just assumed I had to use the double angle formula because it was in the exercise in the chapter for double angle formula
😫
I got the answer, just using the compound angle formula
thanks for the help 👍

f(x)=ax³+bx²+cx+d
a>0
roots of equation (f o f)(x)=2x : 0,2,p,4,q(2<p<4<q)
f'(2)<0
f'(4)<0
f'(4)-f'(2)=13
f(9)=?
have you made any progress on this so far?
no
i suggest writing the equation f(f(x)) - 2x = 0 in factored form
also, just to make sure
are the roots of that equation given as 0, 2, 4, a and b? as in, the same a and b that serve as the coefficients on x^3 and x^2 in f itself?
ok
isnt that too long
even if i factor
the equation has degree 6
and you know it has five roots so one of them will be doubled
yes
perhaps it might do you some good to think about which one it might be
maybe consider some cases
idk yet, but you can keep them as-is until enough info turns up to get any of them
oh wait hold on
sorry, i miscalculated
f composed with itself has degree 9, not 6.
by the way i think you would've done better to name the two unknown roots of f as p and q
right now you've got a name conflict again
do you have a picture of the problem with the names given there?
even if it's in another language
ok so now you're going to ignore my request to send a picture (or tell me you don't have one) and instead ping helpers.
sounds just the tiniest bit rude.
i dont have one
right so then say so instead of acting like you did
ok so help
i can share another thought:
the multiplicity of 0 as a root of f(f(x)) - 2x may not be able to be all that high
like, maybe consider what happens when d = 0 but c ≠ 0, and what happens when d=c=0 but b ≠ 0...
i'm sure you'll get something along the lines of "multiplicity of 0 is at most 1" or something.
are you actually willing to put in any effort yourself, by the way?
you've shown no work so far. just cries of help and "i don't know how"
well i can atleast get that d is 0
cuz idk where to start?
do you think putting f(x) into f(x) is efficient?
d=0... that tracks.
so we now have one less variable to worry about, by the looks of it.
i would now think about whether c can be 0
yeah
wdym
can the conditions of the problem be satisfied if c = 0?
what if c isnt 0
like, maybe they can't, and then we can go forward knowing c ≠ 0.
@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
hm
well, there's always the unpleasant bashing route...
i.e. painstakingly expanding everything to get a system of equations and inequalities of high degree in a, b, c, p and q

¬( (p ∧ q ∧ ¬r) v (p ∧ ¬q ∧ r) v (¬p ∧ q ∧ r))
would this be a correct answer for this question?
this is correct
the professor wrote this as a comment "For P = T, q = T and r = F, the first clause becomes T and T and T = T. and marked it as incorrect, so is she wrong?
Let's try it. For $p=T, q=T, r=F$ we have $$\lnot((T\land T\land\lnot F)\lor (T\land \lnot T\land F)\lor (\lnot T\land T\land F))$$ $$\equiv\lnot((T\land T\land T)\lor (T\land F\land F)\lor (F\land T\land F))$$ $$\equiv\lnot(T\lor F\lor F)$$ $$\equiv\lnot T\equiv F$$
bad at maths
yeah that's what i thought, but my prof marked it wrong and the regrade request wrong too
maybe she didn't read the solution properly

assuming this graph doesnt extend beyond what is shown what are the intervals where f is increasing. The graph is y = f(x)
bad wording
but yes, [-5, 0] would be one of the intervals on which f is increasing.
well in fact it would be the only such interval.
if the derivative is undefined how do you know if it’s increasing? I thought an increasing function has a derivative that is greater than 0
you look left to right
and if it is going up from left I thought that meant that it is increasing
the defn of increasingness has nothing to do with differentiability
i did confirm your answer, so...
but if the derivative is positive then it has to be increasing right? so there is a correlation
the [0, 2] for decreasing?
you got that the wrong way around
alr thanks
is there an example where derivative is positive and it’s not increasing?
if the function is differentiable and increasing then its derivative is positive

okay for the sake of argument let’s say we flip that around, then is the statement not true?
if the derivative is positive than the function is increasing
ah wait no.
I don’t see how that can be not true
the statement is true
it just requires the function to be differentiable in the first place
but if it’s not differentiable then you can you define increasingness? Is there an alternate definition?
sure is.
let X be a subset of R, we say that a function f: X -> R is increasing (on X) if for every x1, x2 in X such that x1 < x2 we have f(x1) < f(x2)
that is sometimes called strictly increasing to resolve ambiguity
Hello lol
Where can I find topics for Algebra, Trigonometric Ratios, Pythagoras' theorem, volume and surface area of prisms and cones etc?
is there an example of an increasing function that isn’t differentiable anywhere in its domain?
I'm 14 years old btw
@lime tartan please open your own channel. #❓how-to-get-help
a nowhere-differentiable increasing function?
I know this doesn’t have to exist per your definition, but I’m just curious
let me try to think of something. I think i have something in mind.
ah yes
this
...oh wait except it might be differentiable at some points
so not quite what you asked for
maybe you could try making some modification of the weierstrass function...
yeah I guess you could put an absolute value somewhere and it’ll work lol
anyway, thanks!

Hey guys
Need help with this limit
I tried using the binomial formula on (1-v^2)^n but didn't got far
how about investigating the behaviour of lim (1-v²)^n for various values of v
humm
if it is 1 or -1 then its 0
otherwise we go to infinity
if v = 0 then the limit is one
what if v=1/2 ?
yeah
well you could try showing that for some intervals [a;b], it's going to be 0
and for some others that it diverges
and for those that contain 0, something deeper
so for a = 0 and b = 1 we would have 0
I am thinking like we can integrate both sides but it feels so wrong
it depends if you know some theorems about swapping limits and integrals
or if you know theorems that say that the integral of a positive function is positive
brb there is a critter outside
I think it wouldn't exist for both?
I don't think so
cuz |1-v²| < 1 there
oh I see
wait
no I don't
the integral exist if for both v = a,b we have |1-v^2| < 1 ?
uh what ?
well there are some "easy" cases
if the interval avoids values of v where 1-v² is large
for [1/4;3/4] you should try actually proving the limit exists and goes to 0
by estimating the integral

if ln 1 = 0 and log 1 = 0 does that mean log = ln?
$ln \equiv log_{e}$
dldh06
What you are saying is ln is equal to the log if the base is the same?
log isnt the same as ln
Yeah that is true
I'm saying if you just wrote log, the default is $log_{10}$
dldh06
While $ln \equiv log_{e}$
dldh06
I understand this
Generally:
$$\log_{a}1 =0$$
for every $a >0 \wedge a \neq 1$.
This not implies logarithms with different bases are equal.
but not this
Modus
ln, or natural log, is log base e
so ln is only equal to log base 10?
So if you wrote $log_{e}$, that is just ln, or natural log
dldh06
No, ln is log base e
so ln = 10?
No, you are misunderstanding
So as I stated, just writing log, is denoted as $log_{10}$
dldh06
Yes that I understand
For ln, which is natural log, that is $log_{e}$
dldh06
I dont get this. What I am understanding here is that ln is equal to log base
So log base e, is equivalent to ln
So pretty much $ln \equiv log_{2.718...} = log_{e}$
dldh06
Because anything to the 0 power is 1
this is a property of logarithmic function of form log_a(x)
$log_{10}(1) = 0$ can be written like $10^0 = 1$
dldh06
So $log_{e}(1) = 0$ because $e^0 = 1$
dldh06
How long does it take to learn integration?
I don't really know what do you mean, by knowing this property rather doesn't help doing integration, it's only a property, small thing
I think the integration question was unrelated to the log and ln question
Yeah
maybe if you calculated definite integral with same log and bound was 1
the questions are unrelated
I am talking about integration notation subsititon, are, limits
aa sorry I didn't notice you've edited
Any thoughts
imo it depends on your working (time you spend studying) and your current knowledge
If its zero on integration
it's not really about integration, you are familiar with derivatives?
so I'd say u can learn basics doing 120-150 (overall) good common examples of different types (u-sub, trig sub, trig integrals, rational functions, IBP etc.)
120-150 what is that?
amount of examples
you're talking about extrema
ah ok, it's really useful thing, especially optimalization
You got any resources I can check for that
mhm, I'd say u can find resources on the internet or some books about differentiation/integration (math analysis generally)
I do that than
And for differentiation and integration the best thing to do is just practicing??
for every topic at maths the best thing is practicing, doing questions and analyzing them
And if you come across a question you dont seem to understand what steps do ''you'' take?
understanding is the key thing here
the topic or the question?
both, you need to know what you do
I can understand the topic
but sometimes there comes a question I cant seem to solve/understand
it's normally, nobody knows at sight how to solve some questions, especially if you haven't seen that or similar question before
this is why understanding is so important, it makes you are able to come up with ideas how to solve them

Look for periodic behaviour
Yes, the previous digit dictates the latter.
Just list out multiples of 13 with 2 digits
13, 26, 39, 52, 65, 78, 91
Then you can form loops like so, (1 3 9) (2 6 5)
wait that's incredible
look
the first number is 13, and 1*3 = 3
the second number is 26, and 2*3 = 6
the third number is 39, and 3*3 = 9
now comes 52, and 5*3 = 15 = ?? = 2
if you notice, 15 mod 13 is 2
6*3 = 18 = 5 (mod 13)
this seems to repeat
sorry idk if that helps lol
Say the first 2 digits are 13. If you want to make a larger number by appending a digit to this number, then your choice can only be 39. Then the number becomes 139, if you want to make it larger still, your only choice is to append 1, and so on
starts with 7 : well fuck
indeed
appending, i.e. adding a new digit at the end of the number
the only ways of having a two-digit number which is a multiple of 13 are, as bad at math listed :
13, 26, 39, 52, 65, 78, 91
the only one of these numbers which starts with a 3 is 39
so if you have a 3 somewhere in a special number like defined in your question (special as in any two consecutive digits form a multiple of 13)
the following digit has to be a 9
let's hope you didn't have a heart attack here

What did they do here?
So am I supposed to do (3- cos(pi/3) + isin(pi/3))^2?
(3 - e^ipi/3)^2
= 9 - 6e^ipi/3 + e^2ipi/3, but 2pi/3 is basically -pi/3, so we have:
= 9 - 6e^it + e^-it
there's an identity that goes like e^it + e^-it = 2cos(t), so i think that's how they get the 2cos(pi/3)
Oof, that's a new identity to me
it's pretty standard
basically:
e^it + e^-it
= (cos(t) + isin(t)) + (cos(-t) + isin(-t))
= cos(t) + isin(t) + cos(t) - isin(t)
= 2cos(t)
_ _
similarly:
e^it - e^-it
= (cos(t) + isin(t)) - (cos(-t) + isin(-t))
= cos(t) + isin(t) - cos(t) + isin(t)
= 2isin(t)
Where did the -t in cos(-t) go?
i didn't
not sure how they do it, something going on there
let's draw a diagram
i mean we could separate it like
9 - 6e^it + e^-it
= 9 - 7e^it + e^it + e^-it
= 9 - 7e^it + 2cos(t)
but i don't see any 7's? so maybe that's not the way
t = pi/3 so 9 - 7e^it + 2cos(t) = 10 - 7e^ipi/3
actually we can just brute force this
e^ipi/3 = cos(pi/3) + isin(pi/3) = 0.5 + isqrt(3)/2
so 10 - 7e^ipi/3
= 10 - 7(0.5 + i (0.5sqrt(3))
= 6.5 + i (-3.5sqrt(3))
and |6.5 + i (-3.5sqrt(3))| = 0.25 |13 - 7isqrt(3)| = 1/4 sqrt(13^2 + 3 * 7^2) = 1/4 sqrt(316)
which is wrong
hmmmm
oh wait i'm an idiot
|z|^2 = zz*
@dense cape Has your question been resolved?
so we have
(3 - e^it)(3 - e^-it)
= (9 - 3e^it - 3e^-it + 1)
= 9 - 3(e^it + e^-it) + 1
= 9 + 1 - 3(2cos(pi/3))
then just divide through by 20
ok that's way easier lmao
i'm smoothbrain
sorry for wasting your time lmao

Renting a bike costs 58 dollars for the first thirty minutes plus a dollar for each succeeding minute. If Ike paid 97 dollars renting a bike? How long did he have the bike?
I am trying to understand how to solve this problem because I am getting 69 minutes but is wrong
show work
just can you help me understand this
58 dollars for the first thirty minutes and then goes up every minute after that
wouldnt it be 97 - 58? and add that to minutes that what i thought of but is wrong
let's just go full tryhard and hit it with algebra
so the amount ike pays is gonna be 58 + (x - 30)
if he has the bike for longer than 30 minutes
so 58 + (x - 30) = 97
solve for x
actually wait i also get 69
who's saying its wrong
the book shows 77 min
are you sure that it wasn't $50
it was 58
some places/people write 0s that look close to an 8

What’s the question?
What do you mean outline it?
That looks correct.
ok, let me try and draw it
its a bit hard for me lol
im still a little confused about the orientation
Would the orientation be like this?
i completely agree with you lol
Just draw that on the left picture
ok but could you explain something to me
so z=x^2 open up on the z plain
and y=z^2 open up on the y plain
so whatever variable is on the left is the plain that it will open up on?
and that will determine the orientation?
is this is true then i can conclude that in problem (c) x=z^2 will open up on the x plane?
Well, you can try to look it this way, the single variable only has one number that can take that one value. While the squared variables has two numbers that can take the values.
Example: y =-2, 2 both translate to 4 on the z plane
Repeat this for the others
oh yeah it doesnt matter if it negative since we are squaring it
So you should have a parabola extending from y=2 and y=-2 going to z= 4
Let me try to draw on my phone
In your graph you don’t have any negative y values
Not drawn to scale
And as y moves out the parabola should get bigger
I put it on this 3d calculator thing and this is what I got
I think your calculator has the blue line as y green as x
Your problem has it rotated
The y is coming toward you and z is vertical on your problem sheet
Rotate it so that the red line is vertical and the green line is horizontal
Ahh shoot
I drew mine weird
I drew mine the opposite way
I hate these charts so much
Yeah that looks right now
In the other calculator you see how the gray plane “shade” is slicing it in half
i have to slide this on the x axis
You can imagine that y = z^2 is also y=z^2 + x Where x is always 0
Hell yeah it is
ill draw it in a bit
but for x=z^2
would it look like this
it would be the same thing no?
I think like the blue line I drew
You see how the red shade the parabola is growing out of the red x-axis?
So x=z^2 should grow out of the y axis
Green axis
so the parabola that i drew is wrong
Now this is should be correct with the orientation of your paper:
That is x=z^2
Not wrong
What you drew is correct but you rotated it
You drew the same thing and just switched the x and y in your two pictures
So that is a slice of it
So that one slice would look like:
The next slice next to it the exact same
So that it looks like a valley moving horizontally with the y-axis being the dip
wouldnt that be the same as the 1st one?
man this whole orientation thing got my head smoking
Me too
I think we did the first one wrong
The first one should be like this one
@visual vale
This
Because x ^ 2 can’t be negative on the x-axis and we got it moving into the negative direction on the first one
your graph of z=x^2 is correct
and i dont really understand what you mean by the graph of z=x^2 is the same as x=z^2?
sure
yes
yes that is correct
ok
is there a simple way to know which orientation its going to face
thats the part that i have the most trouble with
i know that the missing axis is the one you slide it on
you shouldn't really be worrying about that. The main thing that you have to identify is that firstly, which variable is going to take part in the equation, secondly is that are there any particularly slices that can help aid drawing the graph. For example with the equation y=x^2, z is not dependent of y and z, and hence the graph will have a unique slices for any values of z, here z=0 gives you a parabola on the yx-plane. and similarly for z=1, 2, ... the slices all give a parabola graph on the yx-plane
this is usually how one graphs, but of course with other more complicated functions, it's a much much more tedious task to do it by hand
by doing this, you can also graph any equations of 2 variables in the 3-d coordinates systems
for example like cos(x)=y
just try to draw out the slices first and then connect them together to create your graphs
(kind of like how in 2 dimensional coordinates system, you would connect the points)
Waler, on his part c, why is it orientated so that z^2 goes into the negative z plane on one half of the parabola?
basically the variable on the left it can be x,y,z, thats the plane that the graph will open on
z=x^2 it opens on the z plane
y=z^2 it opens on the y plane
x=z^2 it opens on the x plane
that's because z is dependent on x and vice-versa
unliess i got it wrong
But z^2 is always positive?
i mean there's no real reason why it's such, it's that that's how it looks
yes
but z is not always positive
z is any real number
x=z^2
No matter what z you pick it should be in the positive range once squared
No?
why can x be negative in y=x^2? the graph of y=x^2 in 2d coord system is a parabola but x is still negative
yes i agree, z^2 is positive
but z is not always positive
because z^2 is positive, x is always positive
👍
so wait are there negative planes that i should be aware of?
ok so you just named the direction of the axis, im still not sure what you are trying to say
like for x=z^2
it faces towards me
is there a case where it faces in the opposite direction?
that would be the case where you look at it from the other side....
or unless you are talking about the graph of x=-z^2
for this, the graph is now reflected across the yz-plane
yes, i was talking about this
my bad lol
so yeah, that would be the graph of x=-z^2
ok i see
i think i understand it a lot more
i was super lost in the beginning of all this
if you are just going from 2 dimensional to 3 dimensional geometry, you should always remember that shapes in 2 dimensional geometry is just a shadow of 3 dimensional objects
or as we like to call it, slices of 3 dimensional objects
when you expand out to another axis, you are basically expanding out to another variable
the graph y=x^2 in the xy-plane is a simple curve of a shape that we call a parabola, expanding this to 3 dimensional coordinates we need to also remember to "expand" the graph to anther variable, here it would be z
ah ok i see
and there are infinitely many slices
and thats what gives us the shape?

I have 2 problems that I couldn't figure out.
I have tried a few things but none of them works
for #1: let n = 2009 and write A in terms of n
maybe something interesting will happen
@polar barn Has your question been resolved?
tried as mention above given sqrt(n^4+2n^3+3n^2+2n+1)
are you sure you did not make any typos just now
nope
"nope" as in "nope there are no typos, this is correct exactly as written" or "nope i am not sure and i think there might be some typos"
there are no typos, this is correct exactly as written
then im pretty sure you're wrong and it should instead be sqrt(n^4 + 2n^3 + 3n^2 + 2n + 1).
oh
my bad, i thought you were referencing to the exercise and not what i typed above, thus i did not check
yes, it should have been n^4
are you sure you did not make any typos just now
but ok
n^4 + 2n^3 + 3n^2 + 2n + 1 = (n^2 + n + 1)^2, as it happens.
i don't even know at this point any more HAHAHA
give me a second, i will check
yep it is
turn's out im just stupid

Hi, I am trying to mark up my pool table to run a cutting drill but I don't understand how to do the math which would give me the solution for my plot points. I have a total of 15 marks I need to make on a 70" line. Ball 1 will be at 0", and ball 15 will be at 70". I need these points to start off being closer to one another but gradually getting further and further away if that makes sense. I do understand that the average separation should be 4 and 2/3" but I dont know the rest of the math... Can someone either give me those points or show me the formula used to calculate the solution. Thanks in advance!

If I have a square root of a difference of squares, is there anything I can assume that would remove the need to use a square root?
Do you mean given $\sqrt{a^2-b^2}$ is there any way we can get rid of the square root?
bad at maths
Not to get rid of it in general, but by assuming something about a and b that isn’t necessarily true
To get rid of the square root
Are there any cases where that expression can be simplified?
a=b=0
I mean a = 0 or b = 0 are trivial cases
I’m looking for something where the simplified expression still has a and b
generally if you are able to rewrite it as the square of something then it's possible to simplify it
Clearly it can’t be simplified without assuming something about a and b
b=0 or a=0 that's some cases
or if u want it expand it using it's series expansion 💀
which I think people won't do that generally ig
Is there a series expansion for that entire expression?
Or just what’s under the square root
,w series expansion of sqrt(a^2-b^2)
Oh no
u sure u want that?
if a, b are constants and u are looking for a non trivial case
They’re variables
Basically I have a function that’s defined only in a certain area, and I want to create a new function that’s defined everywhere, that matches the original function in the area where it’s defined
And the term that is causing the issue takes the form $\sqrt{a^2-b^2}$
AverageHuman
$\sqrt{a^2-b^2}$
is defined
∆y/∆x=πy+π^2x
oh ok
I want the output to be real
uhh that's a hard question

probably calculate the series expansion
which will give some approx
and polynomials are defined everywherw
$\sqrt{|a^2-b^2|}$
AverageHuman
This works, but there’s no way to simplify it
u wanna get rid of the sqrt also?
u can write it as $| \sqrt{a^2-b^2}|$
∆y/∆x=πy+π^2x
What grade
I’m in college but it’s a personal project
