i suck at geometry, i hate similarity

#

triangle CBD is similar to triangle CEA

#

that's all i know

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@high furnace Has your question been resolved?

high furnace
#

i uh feel like triangle CEB and triangle CAD are congruent

#

it just looks congruent to me

@high furnace im just kidding that was a prank

high furnace
#

it was kinda obvious

gray remnant
#

good one ha?

high furnace
#

@gray remnant do you know how to solve

gray remnant
#

im not sure

#

but i think that i can do something

#

just give me bout 1 hours

#

ok?

high furnace
#

where r u from?what

high furnace
#

asia

gray remnant
high furnace
#

nope

#

im 13

#

i lucked into the best MO class

#

the question i posted is a 2mark question that doesn't require explanation, there are harder ones in my worksheet 😭

high furnace
#

why disrespectful though

#

im really bad at MO but I scored well last semester and barely got into the better class

gray remnant
#

shame on you@high furnace

high furnace
#

my worksheet is due tmr 😭

high furnace
#

this is 1 out of 8 questions i don't know how to solve 😭

gray remnant
#

what you gonna do with other 7

high furnace
# gray remnant congrats:)

because right last semester, literally everything in the notes, but now i'm inside a class with literally top 20 in my country

#

:/

high furnace
#

maybe not everyone is top 20

gray remnant
high furnace
#

mm i haven't figured that out yet tbh

gray remnant
#

cause you are really smart for your age

split granite

I'm trying to find F'(t)

the correct answer is given to me, it's the second image, however when I work the problem out, my answer is similar but incorrect, I'm getting

-30[0.6cos(t)-sin(t)] / (0.6cos(t)-sin(t))^2

could it be something to do with the negative sign?

split granite
#

this is my work, it's messy though

#

(Extra context if needed, I'm doing this for Calc 3, although this is a Calc 1-2 review haha)

hexed gull
#

at the end

split granite
#

isn't the derivative of 0.6sin(t)+cos(t) = to 0.6cos(t)-sin(t)?

hexed gull
#

You can multiply both terms in the brackets by the - and therefore the numerator is the same

split granite
#

ohh that makes more sense

hexed gull
#

but you divide by v²

#

not v'²

split granite
#

OH

#

lemme try and rework to see if i get different result, thank you

sin x + cos x = √2
sin x - cos x = ?
I don't have any idea to finish it
just found out sin x cos x is 1/2 from that

timid silo
#

Do you have an interval u r working with

#

For x

#

Or are you looking for a general solution

fossil crag
#

this is supposed to be always true I think

tender stratus
#

yeah

ebon remnant
#

um I'm on 11th

cinder lintel
#

whole square it and replace value

tender stratus
#

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\sin{x} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cos{x} = 1$

warm shaleBOT
#

nebula40

fossil crag
#

do you know what happens when you know the value of a+b and ab?

fossil crag
#

yes

tender stratus
#

or you could use this $\sin{(x + \pi/4)} = 1$

warm shaleBOT
#

nebula40

fossil crag
ebon remnant
#

sin(x+45) = 1?

#

wait how

cinder lintel
#

its a formula

fossil crag
#

develop sin(x+45)

cinder lintel
#

sin a +b

ebon remnant
#

which means cos(x+45) = 1 too?

fossil crag
tender stratus
#

no

#

cos(x+45) is not 1

ebon remnant
#

but sin((90-(x+45))

fossil crag
#

cos 45-x

#

yes

ebon remnant
#

eh sry i mean yeah

ebon remnant
tender stratus
#

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\sin{x} + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cos{x} = \cos{(\pi/4)}\sin{x} + \sin{(\pi/4)}\cos{x} = \sin(x+\pi/4)$

warm shaleBOT
#

nebula40

tender stratus
#

or just use the method rafilou mentioned if you're still not comfortable with trig identities

#

its more straighforward

ebon remnant
#

got 1 more question tho

#

sry about blur, its square root of 3

#

do i just power all of it by 3?

fossil crag
ebon remnant
#

hehe

cinder lintel
#

my eyes

#

thats cube root on sin^2x and cos^2x?

ebon remnant
#

this one better

cinder lintel
#

so u have to generate sin^2xcos^2x

#

try turning thins into

tender stratus
#

you can cube it, its not as bad as it looks lol
make sure to use (a+b) = 2^(1/3) in the 3ab(a+b) term

cinder lintel
#

a^3+b^3

#

or whole cube it

#

yeah

ebon remnant
#

lemme try it

#

i have a question

#

(sin^2 A)^x +(cos^2 A)^x = ?

tender stratus
#

$\sin^4x + \cos^4x = 1 - 2\sin^2x\cos^2x$

warm shaleBOT
#

nebula40

tender stratus
#

you'll need this

tender stratus
ebon remnant
ebon remnant
tender stratus
#

split the sin^4 into sin^2 times sin^2. then make it (sin^2)(1-cos^2)

#

similar for cos^4

ebon remnant
#

ohh

#

alright2

#

got it thanks @tender stratus @cinder lintel @fossil crag

distant rampart

I've come across a mathematical problem that I've been trying to wrap my head around, and I could use some help verifying my solution. The problem involves demonstrating that P(n, n) = P(n, n-1), and I'd like to confirm whether my approach is correct. Here's what I've done so far:

The problem at hand is to demonstrate the equality P(n, n) = P(n, n-1) and provide a proof for it using two approaches:

a) Simplify both sides of the equation and show that they are equal.
b) Use the multiplication principle to establish the equality between the two expressions.

a) To begin with, I tried simplifying both sides of the equation. After some manipulation, I managed to express both P(n, n) and P(n, n-1) in terms of factorials, leading me to believe that they are indeed equal. However, I'm not entirely confident in my simplification and would appreciate it if someone could take a look and offer their input.

b) Additionally, I thought about using the multiplication principle to further substantiate the equation. My intuition tells me that there might be a way to connect the two expressions using this principle, but I'm struggling to find the precise steps to do so.

kind hawk
#

what is P(n,n) supposed to be?

distant rampart
#

(P(n,n)) refers to permutations of (n) objects taken (n) at a time. Permutations represent the arrangements of objects in a specific order, and (P(n,n)) refers to the number of ways to arrange (n) objects in (n) positions.

warm shaleBOT
kind hawk
#

ok and now with two different letters so it would be clear which is the first input and which the second

distant rampart
#

(P(n, r)) represents permutations of (n) objects taken (r) at a time. So, (P(n, r)) would stand for the number of ways to arrange (n) objects in (r) positions, where (n) is the total number of objects and (r) is the number of positions.

warm shaleBOT
compact shadow
#

P(n,m) is number of arranging m objects on n positions?

#

For m=n-1, arranging n-1 objects on n position, you can view the empty position, as it’s taken by an imaginary object

#

Since there is only one empty position you can do that

#

(Actually r many empty positions you just divide by r! in the end)

distant rampart
#

So, we divide by (n - 1) factorial ((n - 1)!)?

warm shaleBOT
fossil crag
#

What he meant is that we know that P(n,n) = n!

distant rampart
#

And what'd P(n, n-1) be?

fossil crag
#

The idea if you want to arrange n-1 elements into n boxes, you can consider "emptiness" as your missing nth element

distant rampart
#

n! -1?

fossil crag
#

No, n! too

distant rampart
#

Or (n-1)!

fossil crag
#

n!/1!

distant rampart
#

So for each less empty spot means we add by 1 in the denominator?

fossil crag
#

Yeah, P(n,n-m) = n!/m!

#

The idea for P(n,n-1) is that "void" is your nth element, and so you're left with arranging n objects (including void) in n positions

I was wondering the ans since 1 hr

compact shadow

I think you can recognize it in one min, just ignore those ugly “lim”

ocean swift
#

I cant i cant i cant

compact shadow
#

Okay wait a min

#

I omit all lim x->1 for the following:

ocean swift
#

Bro u here ?

compact shadow
#

Yeah writing in tex

#

$\frac{1-x^{2}}{\sin(\pi x)}=(\frac{1+x}{2\sin(\frac{\pi x}{2})})(\frac{1-x}{\cos(\frac{\pi x}{2})})=\frac{x-1}{\sin(\frac{\pi}{2}(x-1))}=(\frac{2}{\pi})(\frac{\frac{\pi}{2}(x-1)}{\sin(\frac{\pi}{2}(x-1))})=\frac{2}{\pi}$

With all “lim” omitted

ocean swift
#

Ok

#

Thanks

compact shadow
#

Np

ocean swift
#

I dont underatand the third one

compact shadow
#

Now the second term

#

Is product of two fractions right

#

The left fraction has limit 1

#

So only the right fraction left

#

This becomes the third term, with cos(πx/2) replaced with -sin(πx/2-π/2)

how do we get the 9x

royal basin
#

also just don't give google's auto solutions.

zinc stirrup
#

can u help us in call lmao like we dont understand

rigid ermine
#

me and einar

#

?

#

its legit my homework

rose snow
#

question pls

zinc stirrup
#

(x-2)(3x-3)

rigid ermine
#

he just open the channel

zinc stirrup
#

we are pondering on how we can get to the final solution

rose snow
#

just this multiplication?

zinc stirrup
#

yes

#

...

rigid ermine
#

need to get this solution

rose snow
#

Already Wait a min I'll share it with steps

rigid ermine
#

from that question

rose snow
#

Oh so like middle term splitting?

#

Yea yea wait a sec

zinc stirrup
#

ok but if were to slow to get it, can u like join our voice call and explain it with paint or something

rose snow
#

What I can do right now is type the steps and if you dont understand ill join it

harsh remnant
#

Voice channels are obsolete here

zinc stirrup
#

yeah were in a private call but we can try the steps first

rose snow
#

(X-2)(3X-3)
(x multiplied with 3x and -3 indivialy and then -2 multipled with 3x and -3

so thats

3x square -3x -6x +6
3x sq -9x +6

#

got it?

zinc stirrup
#

wait

#

let me read

#

3x square

#

whats that mean

#

were not english native

#

or is it the same as ^

rose snow
rigid ermine
#

we just need to know like how to make it 3x^2 - 9x + 6

rose snow
#

the exponent

zinc stirrup
#

like 5^3

#

?

rose snow
#

yeah

zinc stirrup
#

ok ok

rose snow
#

so in the answer its 3x^2

zinc stirrup
#

were gonna try and understand it give us a minute

rigid ermine
rose snow
#

because when you add -3x and -6x it gives you -9x

#

In which grade are you guys?

zinc stirrup
#

were 17

#

so in norway its vidergående

#

class 1

#

idk u can estiamte from our age

rose snow
#

Like youre both 17 years old?

zinc stirrup
#

yeah

rigid ermine
#

yeah

rose snow
#

-2 multipled by 3x

#

are you guys on insta by any chance? I could write this on a piece of paper and send you

neat orchid
#

i dont understand how to solve this problem. do i set the 2 equal to one another and solve for x?

tardy epoch
#

this question sure is confusing

sage geode
#

I think it is asking for the solutions to f(x) = 1/x

tardy epoch
#

call it c

#

find $f(c) = 1/c$

warm shaleBOT
#

riemann

neat orchid
#

then do i plug the 1/x into the firrst equation?

tardy epoch
#

write out a couple steps

neat orchid
#

(1/x)/2-1/x

#

and then simplify

tardy epoch
#

nah

#

wait maybe

#

but the approach i was thinking was different

tardy epoch
#

and use this to find f(c)

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@neat orchid Has your question been resolved?

neat orchid
#

I'm confused

tardy epoch
#

when you plug in x=c to f(x), you get f(c) = c / (2-c)

tardy epoch
neat orchid
#

I think. Ur just replacing x with c?

tardy epoch
#

yes

#

x is a variable

#

c is a specific solution to what the question is asking for

#

like x^2 = 4, then x=2 or x=-2. but instead of 2, x=c

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@neat orchid Has your question been resolved?

neat orchid
#

So then ur just essentially plugging the second equation into thr first?

need help

obtuse pebbleBOT
woeful gyro
#

<@&286206848099549185> need help please

tardy epoch
obtuse pebbleBOT
woeful gyro
hollow dove
#

what exactly is the question?

#

your screenshot just has statements and no question

woeful gyro
tardy epoch
woeful gyro
#

no it's jus on a goggle form

hollow dove
#

that's also a different question from the original picture

#

which do you want help with

woeful gyro
#

the second one i posted

hollow dove
#

okay, have you tried drawing a diagram?

woeful gyro
#

yes

hollow dove
#

can you show us

balmy mortar
#

Please remove the undegrad role if you are not

#

#advanced-lounge is definitely not for posting stuff at this level, note. See the channel description

woeful gyro
hollow dove
#

okay, try labelling the distances given in the question

#

ZS is 3x+7 and ST is -5x+23

woeful gyro
#

oh did i label the wrong ones

hollow dove
#

no, your diagram is fine

#

you just haven't labelled any distances on it

#

I mean like, write 3x+7 above the line between Z and S

woeful gyro
#

like this

hollow dove
#

yep!

#

now, because LM bisects ZT, you know something about those two distances

woeful gyro
#

so do i do 3x+7=-5x+23 to solve for x

hollow dove
#

yep!

woeful gyro
#

i got 8 is that right?

hollow dove
#

hmm, not quite

#

can you show working

woeful gyro
hollow dove
#

remember it's a -5x on the right side

#

not 5x

#

so subtracting 3 from both sides gives 7 = -8x + 23

woeful gyro
#

ohh i see what i did

#

x=2

hollow dove
#

yep!

woeful gyro
#

so now how i determine the lenth of zt

hollow dove
#

ZT is the length of ZS plus ST

woeful gyro
#

what i did is i plugged in x which is 2 and i got 13 the i multiplied them by 2 and got 26

#

did i do it right?

hollow dove
#

yep!

#

all good

woeful gyro
#

now the one that is confusin me is the 1/2 one

hollow dove
#

what do you have to find for this question?

woeful gyro
#

the same thing and x and the length

hollow dove
#

length of what

#

WB?

woeful gyro
#

yes

hollow dove
#

okay, have you drawn a diagram for this one?

woeful gyro
#

yes

hollow dove
#

L is the midpoint of WB, so you should be able to write down something that relates WL to WB

woeful gyro
hollow dove
#

remember that 3x+8 is the length of that whole line from W to B

#

not just W to L

woeful gyro
#

i did solve for x and i got -2/3 whixh is not an answer on the answers

hollow dove
#

what was the initial equation you wrote down?

woeful gyro
#

3x+8=1/2+12

hollow dove
#

3x+8 is the length from W to B, not W to L, so those lengths are not equal

woeful gyro
#

so what do i do

hollow dove
#

because L is the midpoint of WB, WL will also be (1/2)x + 12

#

WB = WL + LB

woeful gyro
#

so i don't use 3x+8?

hollow dove
#

you do

#

it's just not equal to (1/2)x + 12 directly

#

if that's any clearer

woeful gyro
#

wht should the equation look like

#

to solve for x

hollow dove
#

we have the full length WB is 3x+8

#

we have half the length is (1/2)x+12

#

so we can add up two copies of these half lengths to get the full length

#

so 3x+8 = 2*( (1/2)x + 12 )

woeful gyro
#

i got 8

hollow dove
#

looks good

woeful gyro
#

i plugged it i got 32 and 16

hollow dove
#

remember that 3x+8 is already the distance WB

#

(1/2)x+12 is half the distance

#

so you can either plug x=8 into 3x+8 and take that

#

or plug x=8 into (1/2)x+12 and double it

woeful gyro
#

so i jus take the answer ftom 3(8)+8

#

which is 32

hollow dove
#

yes

woeful gyro
#

thank youi got one more question

hollow dove
#

not sure how you're supposed to input the answer to the first question

#

but the other parts are exactly the same as the questions we just did

woeful gyro
#

but which i equations i do to get x theres alot of them

hollow dove
#

the question tells you the length of a full line and also the length of one of the halves

woeful gyro
#

like this

hollow dove
#

the top equation isn't right

#

remember 24x -12 is the full line

#

10x-2 is half of the line

woeful gyro
#

so i dont do that one? jus thr bottom one

#

or what does that eqaution look like

hollow dove
#

we can't use the second one

#

because we don't know if TR = RM

#

we only have that SK is bisected at R

#

not that MT is bisected as well

#

so these two parts are not necessarily equal

#

so, if 24x - 12 is the full line

#

and 10x - 2 is half of the line

#

how do we get from half of the line to the full line

woeful gyro
#

do we make multiply?

hollow dove
#

multiply what by what?

woeful gyro
#

the 10x and 12 im not rlly sure

hollow dove
#

say you have a stick, and you know half of that stick measures 30cm

#

how long is the full stick

woeful gyro
#

60

hollow dove
#

so how did you get to that result from the given information

woeful gyro
#

cause the halves would have to be equal

hollow dove
#

so 30 + 30, right?

#

so in our question, one half of the line is given by 10x -2

#

so we can get the full line with (10x - 2) + (10x - 2)

#

or more compactly, as 2(10x - 2)

#

and we also know what the full line should be; 24x-12

woeful gyro
#

so i would have to add 10x-2 and 10x-2?

hollow dove
#

yes

woeful gyro
#

i got 20x-4

hollow dove
#

so that's the length of WB

#

but we're also given that WB has length 24x - 12

#

so you can set these equal

woeful gyro
#

what does that eqaution look like its not an answer

hollow dove
#

you just found WB = 20x -4

#

and we have WB = 24x-12

#

so 20x-4 = 24x-12

#

you can solve this for x

woeful gyro
#

i got 2

hollow dove
#

now you can find all the lengths

woeful gyro
#

for 4(2)+ 5 i got 13 which is not an answer

hollow dove
#

that's the length of TR

#

look at which lengths you are asked for and check your formulas again

woeful gyro
#

oh im lookin for mt

#

but mt doesn't have any numbers with it

hollow dove
#

but MT is made up of other lines that you do have formulas for

woeful gyro
#

so what do i plug 2 in any number?

hollow dove
#

look at the line MT

#

can you break it up into two smaller lines

#

perhaps lines that you are given equations for in the question

woeful gyro
#

8x-5? or 4x+5 only ones i haven't use

hollow dove
#

MT = TR + RM

#

TR is 4x+5 and $M is 8x-5

#

add them together

woeful gyro
#

got 44x-5

#

oh i multipled i got 12x now

#

does that mean tr+rm are congruent to each other

hollow dove
#

what lengths do you have for all the lines

woeful gyro
#

only length i had to solve for was rk and mt now i have to find out which line segments are congruent to each other

hollow dove
#

yes, but line segments are congruent if they have the same length

#

so you want the length of each of the lines segments to compare them

woeful gyro
#

the length are 18 and 12

hollow dove
#

they're not the same so those two lines are not congruent

#

MT bisects SK, so you know the two lines that make up SK are equal

#

you can just take those two lines

woeful gyro
#

so the lines that are congruent are mt and sk

hollow dove
#

no

#

SK is being bisected

#

that means the two sides that it is divided into are equal, because they are each one half

woeful gyro
#

so sk and and tr or sr

hollow dove
#

it's SR and RK

woeful gyro
#

rk isnt an answer its sr mr kr tr and sk

#

also mt

hollow dove
#

RK is the same thing as KR

woeful gyro
#

thank youvery much you have been verry helpful !!!

#

@proper sable Has your question been resolved?

polar fossil
#

I'd probably start by drawing the second two equations on the yz plane

#

like draw a yz plane on paper and plot the two equations

#

and then figure out where that first equation, the x + y + z = 8, where it intersects the yz axis, maybe draw a dashed line or something to figure out the bounds on x

tepid mountain
#

I don't understand how
X + Y + Z = 8 is a plane
Isn't it a 3d shape like?

polar fossil
tepid mountain
#

Is that what it called solid geometry
Combined with inequalities ?

polar fossil
#

i would call this analytic geometry

proper sable
polar fossil
#

good question; I suspect that the three surfaces will enclose an area

#

but i haven't graphed them

proper sable
#

a volume*

polar fossil
#

yeah

#

a 3d area sunglas

proper sable
#

how can we do it without graphing

#

in 3d

polar fossil
#

graph in your head sungl

#

i mean you could try points right

#

like find the intersections

#

drawing a sketch of at least the second two equations is a very good idea though

tepid mountain
polar fossil
#

yeah... graphing 3d functions is hard enough

#

it's okay to get a machine to do it for you but you should try some on your own, again at least do the 2d bit

it should be sqrt3/4 but it says its wrong

hot sonnet
# round wing ?

It's a quadratic equation, so there are 2 solutions. Notice that b is not restricted 👀

#

It can be positive, negative too

round wing
#

I dont have a +- button on my answer pad

#

also squareroot cant be negative irrc

ahh yes

#

It says that you can put 2 answers with a comma

round wing
#

ah maybe thats it

#

let me try

hot sonnet
round wing
#

yeah it worked

hot sonnet
#

You have b²=4/3, not b=√(4/3). The first equation is solved as b = ±√(4/3)

#

Ok great 👍🏽

round wing
#

b=√(4/3) can be written as b^2 = 4/3 if u just square both sides

hot sonnet
#

(oh sry it was 3/4, but let's leave it like that)

hot sonnet
#

As any quadratic equation, it has 2 solutions

round wing
#

Ah I see, if we just have b=√(4/3), then we dont do anyting as we already have the answer, but if its b^2 then its a quadratic eq and has 2 solutions

sage dagger
#

Is the derivative of arcsin(x^2) = 2x/sqrt(1-x^4)

sage dagger
#

did I do anything wrong there

flat roost
sage dagger
#

cool cool

#

And for arccos(e^x) is that just -e^x/sqrt(1-(e^x)^2)

tardy epoch
tardy epoch
sage dagger
#

2x?

tardy epoch
#

Do you know exponent rules

sage dagger
#

Oh yeah I thought you couldn’t do that because of e^x idk

tardy epoch
#

I don't know what your confusion is

royal basin
royal basin
#

$(e^x)^2$ is still equal to $e^{x \cdot 2}$ and $x \cdot 2$ still equals $2x$ and the presence of the number $e$ changes absolutely nothing about that

warm shaleBOT
tardy epoch
#

Might apply to your problems too

sage dagger
#

I thought e^x would like not apply to exponent rules

royal basin
#

why not

sage dagger
#

e^x different

royal basin
#

e is just a number

sage dagger
#

if dy/dx can’t change it then why should exponent rules bleakkekw

royal basin
#

this is idiocy

sage dagger
#

Unjust sully

#

Counter sully sully

royal basin
#

you are just painting yourself into unreasonable corners with alarming determination

sage dagger
#

What shall I do with this

#

(Differentiating)

#

2ln(arcsinx)

#

What do I do from there because ln(arcsinx) is one whole function

timid silo
#

just use chainrule xD

sage dagger
#

what I do first

timid silo
#

(f(g(x)))’ = f’(g(x)) * g’(x)

sage dagger
#

That notation don’t help

royal basin
#

hold up.

#

this feels ambiguous

#

do you mean $\ln[ (\arcsin(x))^2]$ or $[\ln(\arcsin(x))]^2$

warm shaleBOT
royal basin
#

yes there is a difference between them no they aren't the same

#

if you cannot tell then you should not do this problem at all no matter what

timid silo
#

seems to be first since he used log law

sage dagger
#

Question 8

timid silo
#

ye

royal basin
#

ok alright

#

so yeah that equals 2 ln(arcsin(x))

#

which is a good move since it relieves some of the headache

royal basin
#

ln and arcsin

sage dagger
#

Okay but I can’t split ln by its self right

#

for chain rule differentiating ln

royal basin
#

wdym "split"

#

you know how to differentiate ln

#

i have seen you do it

sage dagger
#

I know it’s 1/x

#

but the arcsin is attached to that

royal basin
#

composed with

#

it's just 1/arcsin(x) * arcsin'(x)

sage dagger
#

o

#

yeah

sage dagger
#

So like this?

royal basin
#

no

#

you've successfully bamboozled yourself into putting the square in the wrong place.

sage dagger
#

how

#

sqrt(1-x^2)

#

Is the correct denominator?..

royal basin
#

you treated this as $\mathrm{sq} \circ \ln \circ \arcsin$ when it was written for you UNAMBIGUOUSLY as $\ln \circ \mathrm{sq} \circ \arcsin$

warm shaleBOT
sage dagger
#

I don’t follow

polar fossil
#

$[\ln(\sin\inv x)^2]' = [2\ln(\sin\inv x)]'$ so you won't see $2\ln(\sin\inv x)$ show up in the derivative

#

Find number of divisors of N which are less than $\sqrt{N}$.

warm shaleBOT
#

Feynmann

timid silo
#

Where $N=2^{10}×3^{15}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Feynmann

timid silo
#

Why does my method not work?
$\sqrt{N}=2^{5}.3^{7}.\sqrt{3}$
Number of divisors greater than √N would be 5×8=40, so number of divisors less than √N =176-40

warm shaleBOT
#

Feynmann

timid silo
#

Divisors greater than √N =2^6 onwards ×3^8 onwards

spice citrus
#

Because for example 3^7 * 2^9 is also a divisor greater sqrt(N)

timid silo
warm shaleBOT
#

Feynmann

timid silo
#

I didn't mean to put all of that together

spice citrus
#

There's an easier way actually, notice all divisors come in pairs

#

If d | n, then (n / d) is also a divisor

#

*this doesn't have to be the case if N was a perfect square. Then d and n / d can be the same

timid silo
#

How should i proceed?

spice citrus
#

Do you notice anything about these pairs?

#

and sqrt(N)

timid silo
#

Gcd=1 ?

spice citrus
#

No, about their size

timid silo
#

Like?

spice citrus
#

One being bigger then sqrt(N) and one being smaller

timid silo
#

I can do this question with that method, in that case it would be 176/2

#

But how should i proceed with my method?

#

Or does my method not make any sense?

spice citrus
#

It makes it way more difficult and time consuming since there will be a lot of cases to consider

#

Would 2^2 * 3^9 be bigger? You would need to do that for multiple numbers

timid silo
#

If √N =2^5×3^7 (approx), so why can't the divisors less than √N be (5+1)(7+1)?

#

Since sqrtN also has a √3 in it's factor

spice citrus
#

Because we already found it was 88 and not 48

Makes sense

@timid silo help him

tender stratus
#

x = red angle + blue angle

#

you should be able to find those two

#

apologies for the not so straight line

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@undone quest Has your question been resolved?

undone quest
#

There's no values for 2 angles

tender stratus
#

the red angle is 35 degrees, and the blue one is 50 degrees

#

from the properties of parallel lines

#

corresponding angles, and interior opposite angles respectively. you might have used different terminology but the concept is the same

What’s the difference between assume and suppose, and where would you choose 1 over the other?

sage geode
#

thonk I think I would use "suppose" more when considering cases, but I don't think there is any difference between those terms

timid silo
#

maybe the same thing

#

maybe when you are taking a quiz it's more common to find "suppose" in first paragraph of an exercise, and "now assume" with paragraphs derived from it?

#

for example, 1) A) suppose y = 5/x, what is the domain of x? B) Now assume x =2, whats the value of y ?

#

idk they have the same meaning

grizzled shore
#

Here’s what I think:
You can’t be wrong with suppose.

You could be wrong with assume.

What I mean is when you say suppose you’re considering a subset of possible cases. In this sense, “Suppose we have…” and “Consider…” has the same meaning. We consider only the cases under which my supposition is true.
This is different to “Assume…” where we kinda go out on a limb or hunch, we don’t really know if it’s true or not.

#

Which makes me think that suppose and assume are different starts to proof by contradiction

#

Suppose feels more like, if P then Q implies P is impossible. And it doesn’t say my supposition is wrong

#

But if I start with assume then we say the assumption was wrong

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@grizzled shore Has your question been resolved?

balmy mortar
#

This is all natural language anyways, the differences aren't necessarily clearcut

Here's how I use them, but it may differ for other ppl

#

===============

#

Let this be that for assignment

#

Assume not Q for a contradiction to show P => Q

#

Suppose P for a direct proof P => Q

#

Hmm for contrapositive

#

I think I would write Suppose not Q

#

and make it clear Im proving the contrapositive

grizzled shore
#

So then suppose is used not in the contradiction way

#

But assume is

balmy mortar
#

Thats just how I use them

#

Suppose this for a contradiction is perfectly reasonable
Assume P. ... . Therefore Q. is also reasonable

#

Just assume you will see the 2 words used interchangeably in texts you read

#

Although it does make sense to me at least to not treat them as exact synonyms in my own writing to be more systematic.

timid silo
#

Can you represent an iff statement as "if and also"? As in
"I wont get banned if I don't break the rules and also don't annoy a mod"

tacit scarab
#

I don't think that's how it works

gleaming ridge
#

Iff is a shorthand for if and only if

#

So I don't think you're allowed to do that

#

Plus if and also don't seem like iff

#

It's more of an if and an &

When is a sup or inf of a set an element in the set?

merry vault
#

for example M := {x in R | x < 2}, sup M = 2 right?

grizzled shore
#

Yes

merry vault
#

there is a sentence in my script that confuses me

#

it says

#

let A subset R. If A has an upper bound (english?) and when sup A in A, then A has a maximum and it's max A = sup A

royal basin
#

yes, "upper bound" is the correct word

#

sup(A) is a number that may belong to A but also may not.

#

when it does, it is A's greatest element.

grizzled shore
#

So max A might not exist

#

That’s the idea

grizzled shore
#

It doesn’t exist in this set

merry vault
#

ohhhh

grizzled shore
#

But if it did exist then it’s also the sup of the set

#

Max is a stronger thing than sup

#

If something is the max of a set it is also the sup of the set

merry vault
#

is a limit similar to a sup/inf in that it could be in the set too but doesn't have to?

grizzled shore
#

Because the definition of a max also satisfies the definition of the supremum

#

Wdym a limit is in the set

merry vault
#

umm

#

you can take the limit of a set right

#

lim x->inf (M)

#

is 2

#

= sup M

#

I assume

#

is there a set M where the limit is an element of M

royal basin
#

you can take the limit of a set right
no

merry vault
#

o

grizzled shore
#

What the heck is the limit of a set lol

royal basin
#

that notion does not exist and won't exist for a while

merry vault
#

LMAO

royal basin
#

unless you do probability theory and even THEN it's niche as shit

#

just forget that "limit of a set" can ever be a thing

merry vault
#

ok wait ... I had an exercise where we were given a sequeence

grizzled shore
#

Don’t we use sup in probability as well

merry vault
#

I proved that the sequence has a lower bound and is monotonous decreasing

grizzled shore
#

At least from my limited knowledge we do
