we both just made up a model

Who is "they". Please show a picture from the task!

If I have 255 Green Colors, 255 Red Colors, and 255 Blue Colors - what is the amount of possible colors I can create? Or at least, what would be the equation to find out?

This looks like a made up task from "King TK" himself. I have never seen a task written like this.

soft burrow

$(0,2) \cup [3,4]$

obtuse pebbleBOT
warm shaleBOT
soft burrow
#

by simplifying we get the set {1,3,4} right?

kindred cedar
#

Only if you do it with natural numbers.

soft burrow
#

how is it with real numbers?

kindred cedar
#

You can't really simplify it further.

soft burrow
#

it's an interval

#

so real numbers

kindred cedar
#

Two intervalls

soft burrow
#

the minimum is 1 right?

#

with real numbers

kindred cedar
#

Yes

final thunder
#

Doesn’t it just have to be bigger than 0

soft burrow
#

yeah but how do I define it

#

as a number

final thunder
#

Can’t really define it

soft burrow
#

so there is no min

final thunder
#

Probably if not too sure

soft burrow
#

i'm not sure too

#

anybody knows?

final thunder
#

Ah

#

I got it

#

There’s no minimum because

#

Let’s say m is our minimum

#

But we can do (0+m)/2 which is halfway between 0 and m

#

This leads to a contradiction

soft burrow
#

ok, i think this is enough as explanation to write

#

the supremum is 4 ?

elfin zenith
#

please help, I'm really stuck

obtuse pebbleBOT
final thunder
#

I mean sinx = cosx only when x=pi/4 in the interval (0,pi/2)

elfin zenith
#

were the angles*, translation mistake, sorry

elfin zenith
#

I tried to use wolfram alpha but the answers were not useful

final thunder
#

,w solve sinx=cosx

final thunder
#

Yeah…

elfin zenith
final thunder
#

So you got 45 and 45 angles

#

Lmao

#

Wth

elfin zenith
#

so, is there are any other solutions?

final thunder
#

Don’t think so

#

Not possible for a triangle to have these ratios probably

#

Ah await

#

Acute triangle

elfin zenith
#

yeah, a triangle with 3 acute angles

final thunder
#

Nvm I thought it meaant only 1 was acute

elfin zenith
#

yeah, this question has a mistake I guess

final thunder
elfin zenith
#

my teacher wants the answer by Tuesday

final thunder
elfin zenith
#

well, can I change the question?

#

I want to make it: proof that this cannot happen

Thunder7

timid silo
#

since g is not injective, then g(x)=g(y) with x≠y. Then consider the preimages of x and y

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@uncut robin Has your question been resolved?

timid silo
#

its the definition of injectivity

uncut robin
#

yeah I get that

#

but after that?

timid silo
#

since f is surjective, you can find an element z such that f(z)=x

#

then use those two facts to construct a counter example to injectivity

uncut robin
#

$\\text{So } \exists x_1, x_2|g(x_1)=g(x_2) \implies x_1 \neq x_2
\\text{But } x_1 \text{ and } x_2 \text{ can be written as } f(z_1)=x_1 \text{; }f(z_2)=x_2
\\exists f(z_1), f(z_2)|(g\circ f)(z_1)=(g\circ f)(z_2) \implies f(z_1) \neq f(z_2)$

warm shaleBOT
#

Thunder7

timid silo
#

yup, now show that z_1≠z_2

uncut robin
#

how so?

timid silo
#

f is a function

#

what does this tell us if z_1=z_2?

uncut robin
#

f(z_1)=f(z_2)

#

do I have to use the inverse?

timid silo
#

nah you dont need to use the inverse

#

just use the contrapositive of that statemenet

uncut robin
#

what statement

timid silo
#

z_1=z_2 => f(z_1)=f(z_2)

uncut robin
#

but z_1 != z_2

timid silo
#

yeah exactly, thats what we want to show

uncut robin
#

so if z_1=z_2 then f(z_1)=f(z_2)
so if z_1!=z_2 then f(z_1)!=f(z_2)?

#

I'm lost

timid silo
#

no, we have that if f(z_1)≠f(z_2), then z_1≠z_2

timid silo
uncut robin
#

but how do you know is it always prop1 = prop2 then prop3 = prop4
prop3 != prop4 then prop1 != prop2

timid silo
uncut robin
#

ohhh ok

thanks a lot

hi

obtuse pebbleBOT
timid silo
#

how do i rationalise this

high lily
#

multiply numberator and denominator by conjugate of denominator

timid silo
#

i always mess up somewhere tho bc my answer is wrong

high lily
#

that is the conjugate yes

timid silo
#

yeah

#

but i think i multiplied it wrong

#

i got 20rt5 + 4rt8/22

high lily
#

yeh, you multiplied wrong

#

where's rt(8) coming from

timid silo
high lily
#

doesn't tell me how you're getting 8 under the root

timid silo
#

i’ll show my working

high lily
#

$\sqrt{a} \times \sqrt{b} \red{\neq} \sqrt{a+b}$

warm shaleBOT
#

ℝamonov

timid silo
high lily
#

you added the 3 and 5 instead of multiplying...

timid silo
#

ohhhh

#

wb this

kindred moss
#

9 and 2

#

3sqrt(2)

#

go from there

#

Instead of root18

But i'm not sure why

is longer like... in curve length?

#

how about if f is constant?

solar trellis
#

You should find a counterexample

scarlet oriole
#

Ok

#

Here is the answer sheet

#

But I am confused

#

I don't know why it is 2sqrt(1+f') instead of sqrt(1+f')

sullen imp
#

The top one😭

#

I solve for Y and input it in but i keep getting one of the wrong answers

granite lark
#

so what did you find y as?

sullen imp
#

-4 and 0

#

Its supposed to be -4 and 2

#

So im prob doijg the math wrong

#

WAIT

granite lark
#

hang on let me try work it out here

sullen imp
#

I meant solve for x

#

I solved for Y on the second eqtn and then plugged it into the first

#

To find X

granite lark
#

you solved for y on the 2nd equation?

sullen imp
#

Yeah

#

Y= 12/x

granite lark
#

as in xy = 12?

#

ohh

sullen imp
#

Then put thay into the first

granite lark
#

okay

#

so what does that give you when you sub y into the first equation

sullen imp
#

-4 and 0

#

For x

#

But it should be -4 and 2

#

Did u get sum else

granite lark
#

I mean just as the equation

sullen imp
#

3x - 12/x = -16

granite lark
#

so 3x-24/x = -6

sullen imp
#

Wait

#

Whyd u get 24

#

OMG

#

I didnt see the two

granite lark
#

yh

sullen imp
#

In front of y

#

Omfg

granite lark
#

also 6 not 16

sullen imp
#

Omg

#

Sorry

#

Im really tired

Thank u sm

does anyone know how to do this?

obtuse pebbleBOT
uneven palm
#

find f'(x) first

#

and then plug in 11

fiery vapor
#

ok ill try that

#

idk how

uneven palm
#

have you learned how to find the derivative of something like this?

#

more specifically, quotient rule?

fiery vapor
#

do i solve it like this?

uneven palm
#

yea that's an example of quotient rule

#

but do you understand what to do from it?

real viper
#

hey guys i'm new

fiery vapor
#

do i plug in the 11 after i solve for f'(x)?

uneven palm
#

yeah

#

but do you know how to solve for f'(x)?

fiery vapor
#

i think so

#

ill just follow how he does it

#

ill let you know

uneven palm
real viper
#

i have a problem too

#

in mathematics

#

maybe u guys gonna laugh abt it

#

bc might be very easy

uneven palm
real viper
#

right

#

yo and how this chats work

#

like someone come to help u or smth

fiery vapor
#

this is what i got so far

#

idk if im on the right track

fiery vapor
uneven palm
#

yep

fiery vapor
uneven palm
#

looks right to me

fiery vapor
#

so that goes in the first box?

uneven palm
#

yeah

#

and make sure to simplify your derivative for the second box

fiery vapor
uneven palm
#

in the last step

#

5x - 40 - 5x = -40

fiery vapor
#

oh yeah oops

#

wait so its like the same thing

uneven palm
#

but otherwise it seems right to me

fiery vapor
#

i got it right

#

thank you very much

#

late mango
#

I need someone to check my answer and see if i did anything wrong

late mango
mental plaza
#

aye aye

#

wassup

#

hm

#

ur first one

#

man

late mango
#

Aye

mental plaza
#

It was going so well

#

then idk what happened

late mango
#

I just need checking on what i did right and wrong

mental plaza
late mango
#

Because i remember my instructor telling me about if the denominator is greater than the numerator then you add or subtract

mental plaza
#

what’s going on there

late mango
#

Its just how my instructor showed me how to do it

mental plaza
#

u got the answer

#

1/x

#

but idk what

#

u did with it

late mango
#

1/x to -4/4

mental plaza
#

so u got $(x^{-4})^{\frac14}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

right

#

then u got

late mango
#

Basically

mental plaza
#

$x^{\frac{-4}{4}}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

yea?

#

what’s -4/4

late mango
#

Power

mental plaza
#

what’s the result

#

evaluate

#

-4/4

#

calculate

late mango
#

So i got 1/x and x is to the -4/4th power

mental plaza
#

nope

#

if you want to do it like that

#

the negative

#

become positive

#

b ur first

#

but first*

mental plaza
late mango
#

So its just 1

mental plaza
#

what’s -4 divided by 4

late mango
#

Hmm

mental plaza
#

-4 divided 4 is -1

late mango
#

-1?

mental plaza
#

yeye

late mango
#

Yea

mental plaza
#

nice

#

so u get

#

$x^{-1}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

which is

#

$\frac1x$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

late mango
#

I see

#

But then whats the point of having x to the -4/4th power hold up

mental plaza
#

wdym

#

it’s just the exponent

#

the power

late mango
#

Lemmie show an equation me and my teacher went over that he said was right

mental plaza
#

yeye

#

sure

#

alr I checked

#

the rest

#

of ur work

#

and the second one

#

super close

#

third one

#

is right

late mango
#

Ignore the notes

mental plaza
#

wait nvm

#

third one isn’t right

#

it’s wrong too

late mango
#

Damn

mental plaza
late mango
#

He said it was correct so

#

I kept doing the method he taught me

mental plaza
#

what u did

#

in ur notes

#

is perfect

#

what u did

#

in ur work

#

isn’t

late mango
#

How

mental plaza
#

I see ur mistake

#

common mistake

#

repeated

#

throughout

#

ur work

#

for example

#

when u have

#

$x^{-\frac12}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

it becomes

#

$\frac{1}{x^{\frac12}}$

Yo

mental plaza
#

see the exponent

#

it becomes positive

#

the sign flips

late mango
#

Yea

mental plaza
#

yea

late mango
#

So im just flipping

mental plaza
#

u didn’t do that

pine reef
#

I still cant find out how to get a help channel

mental plaza
pine reef
#

Ok

mental plaza
#

u can see question 2

#

in ur work

#

u didn’t flip

#

ur final answer has -2

late mango
#

And it becomes positive again correct

#

After

mental plaza
#

yep exactly

#

when u take reciprocal

late mango
#

So for number 2 instead of what i got what would it have been

mental plaza
#

$x^{-\frac25} = \frac{1}{x^{\frac25}}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

so it’s $\frac{1}{\sqrt[5]{x^2}}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

late mango
#

So basically my whole issue is i didnt turn that negative number positive

mental plaza
#

yep

#

for the first one

#

that wasn’t the prob

#

idk what u did

#

for the first one

#

because u got 1/x

#

but idk what u did with it

late mango
#

So i got it but didnt get it fully

#

Because of the -4/4

mental plaza
#

ye I think

#

u got confused

late mango
#

So do i reanswer it as -1/x =1/x

mental plaza
#

what

#

why is - = +

late mango
#

Because -4/4 is -1 so then it turns into 1 no?

#

Or does it stay negative

mental plaza
#

yes

#

turns into +1 when u take reciprocal

#

1/

late mango
#

Hmm

mental plaza
#

for the third

#

u didn’t need

#

to take

#

1/

late mango
#

How come

mental plaza
#

u didn’t have negative power

#

not needed

#

u already had

#

$x^{\frac43}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

which is

#

what

late mango
#

1 something

mental plaza
#

no need

late mango
#

1 1/3

mental plaza
#

in terms of

#

roots

#

what does

#

the 3

#

in the denominator

#

tell u

#

if u wanna

#

express

#

it root form

#

is it square root

#

cube root

#

fourth root

late mango
#

So instead of what i got what would it have been

mental plaza
#

u tell me

mental plaza
#

but

#

if u wanna express it

#

in root form

#

what would it be

#

it’s like

#

how u did

#

in ur part 3

#

2*

late mango
#

I got lost what

mental plaza
#

alr so

#

if I

#

give u

#

$x^{\frac12}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

the 2

#

in the denominator

#

tells me

#

it’s a square root

#

ye?

#

so

#

I can write it

#

as

#

$\sqrt{x}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

late mango
#

Which is 1

mental plaza
#

what

late mango
#

Because x by itself is 1

mental plaza
#

?no

#

wdym

late mango
#

And if you square x its 1/2

mental plaza
#

the power is 1 yes

late mango
#

Just to dumb it down for myself yea

mental plaza
#

so ye

#

for ur qn

#

$x^{\frac43}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

what does

#

the 3 day

#

say

late mango
#

Lemmie rethink

mental plaza
#

alr alr

#

sure bro

#

take ur time

late mango
#

Yea im kinda struggling on this

#

Oh

#

That the numerator is greater than the denominator so it wouldnt need to be subtracted? Or sum like that

#

I remember my teacher telling me that and it clicked when i realized this

#

@mental plaza

#

So 1 wouldnt need to be over it

mental plaza
#

wassup

#

sorry I was

#

helping someone

#

else

#

alr

#

lemme read what u wrote

late mango
#

What

#

Damn im being lied to

mental plaza
#

even when numerator > denom

#

you don’t have

#

to take 1:

#

1/

#

if it’s positive

late mango
#

You dont have to have 1 over at all then

mental plaza
#

unless

#

it’s negative

#

then yes

late mango
#

Unless its like my first question

mental plaza
#

you have to

late mango
#

Yea

#

Okay

#

If its negative then its 1 over

mental plaza
#

ye

#

so it becomes positive

late mango
#

And if its not then its written like x to the 4/3 power

mental plaza
#

yea

late mango
#

Alright that makes sense

mental plaza
#

nice

late mango
#

So in conclusion question 1 is -1/x

Question 2 is 1/x to 2/5

Question 3 is x to the 4/3

mental plaza
#

2 and 3

#

yea

#

1

#

no

#

where

#

is the negative

#

coming from

#

tho

late mango
#

Oh right becomes positive

#

My bad

#

But i got one more question

#

What if at the beginning

#

Both powers are the same number

#

On x

#

Do they just cancel out and become nothing

#

Just x?

#

@mental plaza

mental plaza
#

aye aye

#

wassup

mental plaza
#

like

#

$x^2 \cdot x^2$?

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

late mango
#

Yea

mental plaza
#

no

#

u add the powers

#

use exponent rule

late mango
#

If both numer and denom are the same number after what happens

mental plaza
#

ah numerator and denom

#

so like

#

$\frac{x^2}{x^2}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

yes

#

they cancel

#

and become 1

late mango
#

Because I was doing this self made eqution and uh

#

Lemmie just show

mental plaza
#

self made

#

o-O

late mango
#

Im just writing random numbers

#

And checking if im doing it rifht with new note

#

Notes

mental plaza
#

alr

#

so far

#

aye

#

aye

#

ye *

#

ur right

#

u have

#

0/5

#

in the power

#

right

#

so what is 0/5

#

tell me

#

what’s the value

late mango
#

Just 0

mental plaza
#

nice

#

so u have

#

$x^0$

warm shaleBOT
#

Springsskateboard

mental plaza
#

anything

#

ANYTHING

#

to the power 0

#

is?

late mango
#

0

mental plaza
mental plaza
#

it’s 1

late mango
#

1

mental plaza
#

use ur calculator

#

I’ll see

late mango
#

I dont use a calculator thay often

mental plaza
#

ull*

#

but ye

late mango
#

Also that is what i did ask

mental plaza
#

anything

#

to the 0 power

#

is 1

late mango
#

If it jist becomes 1

mental plaza
#

yea

late mango
#

Alright thats cool

#

Yea i think thats everything i needed to know

mental plaza

nice

How would i start number 4

misty tree
#

Gauss’ formula is n(n+1)/2

#

To find the sum of the even numbers in a set, take the highest even divided by 2. Add up the numbers 1 to this new number, and multiply that by 2

#

So like adding up the evens 1-28, it’s 14•15/2•2=210 (sorry I multiplied wrong)

#

This works because you can just factor out a 2

#

Since 2n is always even, you don’t need to worry about subtracting 1 to make it even

#

It should be 2n(2n+1)

#

You know what

#

I think I did it wrong again

#

I’m gonna get a sheet of paper

mental mortar
#

Ok

misty tree
#

It’s n/2(n/2+1)

#

For b, we know that Gauss’s formula is n(n+1)/2

#

Substitute 2n+1

#

(2n+1)(2n+2)/2-(n/2)(n/2+1)

#

Fml

#

Since it is 2n, the right side should be n(n+1)

mental mortar
#

Wait

#

Why sub in 2n plus one

misty tree
#

I need to rethink my whole explanation right quick

Yeah I messed up

violet sentinel
#

ah I see! No worries

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@mental mortar Has your question been resolved?

misty tree
#

No, it would be (x+1)^2

#

@violet sentinel

#

It is true that adding up odds gives squares, but it needs to be switched up

#

For example, 7+5+3+1=16

#

2x+1=7, so x=3

#

4^2=16, so (x+1)^2 is the sum of the numbers 1 to 2n+1

The bisector BD of the triangle ABC divides the side AC into segments AD = 6 cm and DC = 8 cm. Find the length of the bisector if the angle DBC = 120 degrees

royal basin
#

microsoft paint has a text tool. might help your diagram a bit better

#

first suggestion that comes to mind is to do some angle-chasing bullshit with the law of sines...

#

have you made any progress so far otherwise?

cunning spruce
#

Not really, I've tried using the ratio of adjacent sides to the bisector, but from that we only have a small ratio that BC = 8k and AB = 6k. Also, using the formula for the length of the bisector, find it with some values ​​and others to equate. Sorry for the inaccuracy of the translation, I use google translator. Now I'll throw off the photo from the notebook.

If the first urn has 2 blue balls and 8 red balls, the second urn has 6 blue balls and 4 red balls, and the third urn has 8 blue balls and 2 red balls. What is the probability of drawing 2 blue balls?

#

i solved this question

earnest shell
#

and i got 0.472

#

i did BBR + BRB + RBB =0.472

#

is it correct ?

civic zealot
#

how many balls are being drawn? and are they each being drawn randomly from (possibly) different urns? are they drawing it with replacement or without?

earnest shell

so in total 3 balls

that looks right then

hi

obtuse pebbleBOT
dry flint
timid silo
#

for the first one, can you think of a linear combination that equals 0?

dry flint
#

they all have to equal 0

#

oh wait no

#

they just all equal each other

timid silo
#

right, if we denote the coefficients as x, we would just need to set x1 = x2 = x3 = 1 for example

dry flint
#

YEA

#

yea*

#

does that mean its dependendt?

timid silo
#

yes one counterexample is enough

dry flint
#

ahhh i see

#

what abt the second one

#

so i get v1 = -v2

#

v2 = -v3

#

v3 = -v1

#

can i just say the only soltuion is 0 lol or do i have to provei t

timid silo
#

wait i gotta think a bit about that one

wait i got it

the only way x = -x is 0

I have this question "How many intersection points do you get if a line and a circle intersect?".

Prove

#

If $abc = 1$

warm shaleBOT
#

Pluton

drowsy girder
#

And they are all positive numbers

#

Seemed easy at first look but idk how to use abc = 1 to make it homougene or however you spell it.

final thunder
#

Seems like a job for AM-GMthonk

drowsy girder
#

But still i dont see any obvious answer for this

#

I mean any obvious way to use AM-GM on this

final thunder
#

I’ll try something one sec

wooden cipher
#

yeah this does look like am-gm

#

maybe its titus

#

or maybe im just rusty

drowsy girder
#

I mean it must be am-gm its not cauchy-schwarz i never in my whole life used qm-am and i dont believe its am-hm

final thunder
#

I got it

#

Consider this $\frac{a}{\sqrt[3]{abc}} + \frac{b}{\sqrt[3]{abc}}+ \frac{c}{\sqrt[3]{abc}}$

#

Great

warm shaleBOT
final thunder
#

@drowsy girder

wooden cipher
#

oh damn

drowsy girder
#

Ye thats a + b + c

final thunder
#

Express it in such a way that’ll allow you to use AM-GM

drowsy girder
#

$$\frac{a + b + c}{\sqrt[3]{abc}} \geq 3$$

#

This prob not it

warm shaleBOT
#

Pluton

drowsy girder
#

I mean ik its not it

final thunder
drowsy girder
#

Thats should ideally be RHS right

final thunder
#

Write this as 3 fractions still

drowsy girder
#

So ig $$\sqrt[3]{\frac{a^3}{abc}} + \sqrt[3]{\frac{b^3}{abc}} + \sqrt[3]{\frac{c^3}{abc}}$$

warm shaleBOT
#

Pluton

drowsy girder
#

Should be rhs

final thunder
#

Yes

#

And there’s a clever way to write this

#

So that we can exploit AM-GM

drowsy girder
#

Oh $$\sqrt[3]{\frac{a^2}{bc} \cdot 1} + ....$$

#

Ig

final thunder
#

It’s a bit more than that you basically want to multiply by 1

#

(hidden 1)

warm shaleBOT
#

Pluton

final thunder
drowsy girder
#

Oh abc?

final thunder
#

More like $$\sqrt[3]{\frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{b}{c}} + ....$$

final thunder
drowsy girder

Oh and you get that
$$\frac{\frac{a}{b} + \frac{a}{b} + \frac{b}{c}}{3} \geq a$$

#

Which when paired with others prob gives the original inequality

final thunder
#

Yeah

#

So

#

Doing the same for the other fractions yields, $$\sqrt[3]{\frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{b}{c}} + \sqrt[3]{\frac{b}{c} \cdot \frac{b}{c} \cdot \frac{c}{a}} + \sqrt[3]{\frac{c}{a} \cdot \frac{c}{a} \cdot \frac{a}{b}}$$

I know what brackets and parenthesis denote, but what's weird is that a similar problem doesn't use them for a correct answer (that I know is certainly correct). It's a closed circle, which is defined, but do you not use brackets in this context?

stark nebula
#

You would use brackets here since it’s less than or EQUAL to -3

grave dove
#

Yep that's right. Thanks for the reminder lol. Silly me

junior hull

im not sure if this is exactly the right channel for this but I was wondering if someone could help me understand finding the derivative of an inverse function?

junior hull
#

like for starters, how does it equal to that? isnt what they are saying on the left the same as the right so why is the right on 1/m when the left side says it is equal to m?

How do you write, $(\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n.....}}}}})$ in terms of series?

timid silo
#

$\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n+\sqrt{n.....}}}}}$

I don't know why the bot isn't working but i think you got the idea

timid silo
#

weird

#

a series? not a recursive sequence or something?

What does the word horizontally indicate here?

winter geyser
#

Like, I understand west of north, it's a triangle in the 2nd quadrant

#

But 4580m horizontally really trips me up

#

Confusion

sour jasper
#

You’re working in 3 dimensions, right? So horizontally means that if the summit were actually at ground level, then it’d be 4580 meters away from you. Put another way, the distance from the camp and the projection of the summit point onto the floor is 4580 meters.

#

So the hypotenuse of the triangle in the second quadrant is 4580 meters

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@winter geyser Has your question been resolved?

winter geyser
#

I get what you're saying, conceptually

#

But still can't understand how the word horizontally fits there

#

Maybe there's a different meaning of the word i don't understand

#

Why not just say the diagonal distance from the summit to the camp is 4580 or something

#

rip

sour jasper
#

Well the diagonal distance could also be interpreted as the direct length of your displacement vector

#

Like you attached a zip line from the summit to the camp

#

The word horizontal makes sense to me because this distance happens to be the distance of the displacement component parallel to the horizon

#

Like imagine you standing to the side, facing both the camp and the mountain upon which the summit rests. From this viewpoint, pretty clearly you can see why 4580 meters is called a “horizontal” distance

winter geyser
#

That makes more sense

#

I'm pretty new to the 3D plane

#

But I'm starting to understand what I'm actually doing here

winter geyser
#

It's not a zip line from top to bottom, it's just if you looked at the area from above and treated it as a 2D plane for x and y

#

It's the hypotenuse for just the x and y, ignoring the z

#

In that case, does this seem correct to you?

sour jasper
#

I haven’t checked any of the arithmetic but you’ve plugged all the right numbers into the right functions

#

So looks good to me

winter geyser
#

Sounds good

#

Thank you so much!

sour jasper

No problem!
