humble dagger
#

does anyone know how to solve this one?

limpid oar
#

what is cot?

teal turret
#

what have u tried @humble dagger

humble dagger
#

co tangent

limpid oar
#

which is?

humble dagger
#

we use the u substitution for y right ?

#

y=u^2

limpid oar
#

not necessarily, how could you express cot in some other way?

humble dagger
#

derivative of cot is -csc^2

#

the professor doesn’t cover material too well in class

limpid oar
#

how could express cot(x) in terms of sin(x) and cos(x)

humble dagger
#

cos(x)/sin(x)

limpid oar
#

what rule could you use to solve the derivate of that

humble dagger
#

ohh quotient rule?

#

lo d high high d lo /lo ^2

#

thank you!

limpid oar
#

are you given a formula sheet at all for exams?

teal turret
#

no need for quotient rule

limpid oar
#

my bad @humble dagger ! may have given you a bit more extra work to do haha

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@humble dagger Has your question been resolved?

humble dagger
#

oh okay yeah i was a bit stuck

#

we’re not provided a formula sheet ;_;

limpid oar
#

if you have the derivative of cot(x) = -cosc^2,
and you have cot(x)^2 what rule could you use to differentiate that

humble dagger
#

power rule?

We need to find the next missing number

#

There's a pattern in the sequence of number

stable wyvern
#

is this an arithmetic or geometric series?

timid silo
#

Dunno

#

We need to find it ourselves

stable wyvern
#

you can use a sereis to help you find the next term

#

or you can count

#

,w arithmetic series

stable wyvern
#

,geometric series

#

,w geomtric series

timid silo
#

I dunno what you're doing

stable wyvern

I meant geometric and aritrhmetic sequences** not series

#

sorry

Heya, so i tried the integral of $sin^4(x)$ and was off by a bit, Answer from wolfram alpha is $$\frac{sin(4x)-8sin(2x)+12x}{32}$$

#

I would've used reduction formulae

#

Is there a reason you've done it like this?

strong pike
#

I think you lost a *2 in line 4 -> 5 but you shouldve just used product-to-sum or power reduction in the first place

You made your calculation more error prone by not structuring it like you would in the binomial theorem

#

Write down (e^ix - e^-ix)^4 and make sure your first step is such that you get the 1 4 6 4 1 coefficients in your next step before simplifying.

hybrid mortar
obtuse pebbleBOT
hybrid mortar
#

so i don't get how i should find the domain of the graph

woeful void
#

What is the definition of domain?

hybrid mortar
#

its the input

woeful void
#

Right, what do you think the domain is then?

#

First, what are the smallest and largest x-values?

hybrid mortar
#

-8, and

#

9

woeful void
#

Yes. Are those inclusive?

hybrid mortar
#

no?

woeful void
#

Well, it is a black dot

#

Not an open circle

#

So it includes the point

hybrid mortar
#

oh

woeful void
#

Yeah.

#

Now, let's check for its continuity. Is it everywhere continuous?

#

On it's domain

#

Like are there any breaks?

#

Or discontinuities?

hybrid mortar
#

there aren't

woeful void
#

Yeah. So what do you think the domain would be?

hybrid mortar
#

im kinda new to this, so uhm i was wondering if you could explain?

woeful void
#

Right. We know that it is continuous, right?

hybrid mortar
#

yes

woeful void
#

on it's domain

#

And, the end points are inclusive.

#

So, we would use the notation [-8,9] to denote it's domain.

#

Note that there are two types of brackets

#

[] and ()

#

() is used when we are not including that point

#

For example, if it was (-8,9) then we are not including x=-8 and x=9.

#

But [] means that we include x=-8 and x=9.

hybrid mortar
#

ohh, thank you

woeful void

Cos theta and
-6i-8j cos theta are same?

@true trail Has your question been resolved?

true trail
#

@tender tusk

tender tusk
#

oh yo

#

aight notice how -6i-8j is in the third quadrant

#

$\cos(\theta)=-\frac{3}{5}$ as cos is negative in the third quadrant

if y=0

is y = 3e^-x

?

if so then you have

clearly from there you have

solemn bough

Hi i have the following pproblem which i have to describe as i dont know the name.
i want a formula which converts a slope degree to a speed multiplier.
the values look like this:
-45 = 2
0 = 1
45 = 0.5
it has to be linear
is this a linear equation?

tardy tusk
#

Well it's increasing

#

and actually the formula of linear is

#

mx+b

#

Where m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

#

Where x2, y2 is poins that are more right

#

b=1 ig or put x and y and m to find

solemn bough
#

maybe what i need isnt a linear equation?
im very bad with higher math stuff tbh

tardy tusk
#

Me either

solemn bough
#

Its for my game project and mapping every value pair would be a real pain.
So im trying to find out if there is a methematical solution to my problem.
But it also seems like i completly missunderstood what linear equations are 😅

tardy tusk
#

I tried

tardy tusk
#

It is linear

tardy tusk
#

To find

solemn bough
#

oh let me try this out

#

i tried x/90 + 1
well but now 45=1.5 and -45=0.5
but 45 should be 0.5 and -45 should be 2

tardy tusk
#

What?

tardy tusk
#

You literally said

#

-45 is 0,5

#

0 is 1

#

45 is 2

#

Maybe just put -

#

Ok one sec

#

Hm

#

Strange

#

I tries -x/90 +1

#

And it's
-45 1,5
0 1
45 0,5

#

Okay

#

It's strange

#

I think it's not linear

#

Or

#

It's piecewise function

#

And it's the combination of two functions

solemn bough
#

youre right i messed up my first post

#

corrected that

tardy tusk
#

We can say that it's combination of linear functions

#

But when second function is less than 0

solemn bough
#

Oh wow thats strange.
How to handle something like this?

tardy tusk
#

Idk it's exactly like that

#

Like points are the same

#

But to write it as one function

#

I don't know

#

Don't have such a knowledge

solemn bough
#

i dont know if its even possible, maybe i should first check the input value and branch then

tardy tusk
#

It's possible if it's piecewise function

#

Actually we can express any shit graph as some function

solemn bough
#

i found something about unit step functions

#

Which you may use to find a function identical to
1 on an interval of the form (a,b) and 0 elsewhere:

#

i dont get that...
im a programmer

#

I think that the way im doing it, looks about right to me

#

the output of >= 0 seems fine, but < 0 looks wrong
output is at the top left its always angle followed by speed modifier

short orchid
obtuse pebbleBOT
short orchid
#

Can someone help me with this?

true trail
#

Multiple channels?

vestal thorn
#

the other one is technically closed

short orchid
#

Sorry I’m new to this

crude comet
short orchid
#

honestly no clue

#

3?

#

Since its peak is (0,3)

crude comet
#

so it is possible for sin(k) to = 3?

#

can you think of a number k that makes sin(k) = 3?

#

,w graph sin(x)

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

the maximum is 1

#

likewise, the maximum value of sin(pi/14(x+8)) is 1

short orchid
#

is it

#

just + 3?

crude comet
#

wdym + 3

short orchid
#

Wait sorry

crude comet
#

the maximum value of

#

sin (anything) is 1

short orchid
#

Right so it can’t equal 3 right for any real number

crude comet
#

yes

#

if you want it to be 3

#

you must multiply sin(x) by a number

#

if the maximum value (or amplitude) of sin (x) is 1, then multiplying sin(x) by what will make the amplitude 3

short orchid
#

You multiply sin x by 3 to make it 3sin(x)

crude comet
#

yes correct

#

,w graph 3sin(x)

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

notice, if you have 3sin(kx), the frequency of the wave will depend on k

#

every time kx increase by 2pi is one cycle, right?

short orchid
#

Right

crude comet
#

ok

#

so lets say k = 50

#

a small value of x will be required to make kx increase by 2pi

#

so the frequency will be higher

#

,w graph 3sin(50x)

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

,w graph (3sin(50x)) 0<x<2pi

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

the frequency is very high here

#

compared to

#

,w graph 3sin(x) 0<x<2pi

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

likewise, we can shift the wave left or right

#

do you know how to shift a function left or right?

#

lets say there is a function f(x)

#

do you know how to shift f(x) left or right?

short orchid
#

it’s

#

f(x-a value) for right

crude comet
#

yes

#

correct

short orchid
#

And left it’s f(x+a) for left

crude comet
#

correct

#

so the general equation for a wave is given by

#

$A\sin(bx + c)+k$

#

A denotes the amplitude

#

well

#

one sec

warm shaleBOT
#

hrdxpqurcxktdbanql

crude comet
#

A denots the amplitude

#

b represents the angular frequency (not frequency, that is different), c is the shift left or right, and k is the shift up or down

#

From the picture it is clear A = 3

#

Is the function shifted at all left or right?

short orchid
#

Left

crude comet
#

ok how far left

short orchid
#

I believe it’s 8 which is why I did x+8

crude comet
#

,w graph sin(x+8), -8<x<0

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

notice, if it is shifted left 8, then your sin function starts at 0 at x = -8

short orchid
#

so the value is incorrect?

crude comet
#

yes its incorrect

#

,w graph sin(x)

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

we know that a cycle of sin(x) starts at a point where y = 0 and sin is increasing

#

as seen in the image

#

so where does the graph = 0 and increase here?

short orchid
#

There’s no point where the graph equals 0

#

it’s like 2.75 when it crosses over the y axis

crude comet
#

sorry

#

i mean

#

where does the y value of the graph = 0 and increase?

short orchid
#

I want to say at -11.5

crude comet
#

ok very good

#

so we know c =?

short orchid
#

-11.5

crude comet
#

is your function shifted left or right?

short orchid
#

Left

crude comet
#

ok

#

so is c positive or negative

short orchid
#

Negative

#

-11.5 like we said

crude comet
#

,w graph f(x-20) = (x-20)^2 , 0<x<30

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

is thsi function shifted left or right?

short orchid
#

Right ✅

crude comet
#

ok

#

its shifted right 20 units correct?

short orchid
#

Correct

crude comet
#

ok

#

so we know if we have a function f(x), then f(x-20) will be 20 units right

#

right?

short orchid
#

yes

crude comet
#

ok

#

so if our function is sin(x-11.5), will it be shifted left or right

short orchid
#

11.5 to the right

crude comet
#

ok

#

so if c = -11.5

#

then

#

is this function shifted left or right

short orchid
#

Right

crude comet
#

ok

short orchid
#

let’s go bro

#

we’re getting somewhere

#

I’m hyped

crude comet
#

but we know the graph in your homework is shifted left 11.5

#

not right

#

so is c=-11.5?

short orchid
#

oh dear

#

hmm

#

wouldn’t it be positive 11.5 then..

crude comet
#

yes

#

correct

#

so c = 11.5

#

sorry

short orchid
#

all good

crude comet
#

is the graph shifted up or down at all?

short orchid
#

yes I mean it goes down to -3 and up to 3

crude comet
#

yes

#

youre right

#

let me ask this

#

,w graph sin(x)

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

is this graph shifted up or down?

#

ie would it be written as sin(x) + k?

#

or is it sin(x) + 0

short orchid
#

sin(x) + 0…

crude comet
#

yes

#

obviously i wrote it lol

short orchid
#

😂

crude comet
#

consider the case where sin is shifted up or down

#

,w graph sin(x) + 4

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

does your graph look like that?

short orchid
#

Wouldn’t it be + 3?

#

or am I tripping

crude comet
#

ok

#

lets see what +3 looks like

#

,w graph 3sin(x+11.5) + 3, -30<x<0

warm shaleBOT
short orchid
#

Uh oh

#

Doesn’t look like mine

crude comet
#

it doesnt

#

note, the amplitude is the maximum the wave can increase

#

+3 adds 3 to the maximum and subtracts 3 from the minimum

#

we know the amplitude here is 3

#

so if it was shifted up 3, then the graph would touch y = 6, right?

short orchid
#

yes

crude comet
#

ok

#

in the graph, the amplitude is 3 and the max it touches is y = 3, so the shift up or down is ___

short orchid
#

0

crude comet
#

correct

#

so we know

#

A = 3, c = 11.5, and k = 0

#

all we're missing is b

#

note

#

the equation is now

#

$f(x)=3\sin(bx+11.5) +0$

warm shaleBOT
#

hrdxpqurcxktdbanql

crude comet
#

b is the angular frequency of the wave

#

it determines how quickly the part on the inside increases by 2pi or one cycle, correct?

short orchid
#

yes

#

Correct

tacit vale
#

THERES A PARADE INSIDE MY CITY YEAHHHH

crude comet
#

consider the case:

short orchid
crude comet
#

,w graph 3sin(50x+10) 0<x<2pi

short orchid
#

@tacit vale focus brother

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

,w graph 3sin(1x) 0<x<2pi

#

oops

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

clearly, what is multiplied by x determines the frequency of the wave, or how quickly the wave goes through one cycle, right?

short orchid
#

yessir

crude comet
#

ok

#

so how long does it take for this wave to go through one cycle?

#

aka

short orchid
#

I see 4.5 to 11.5

#

So 7

crude comet
#

how long does it take for a y value to repeat twice**

short orchid
#

-7 technically

crude comet
#

you right

#

but

#

consider ,w graph sinx

#

,w graph sinx

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

how long does one cycle take?

short orchid
#

1 pi

crude comet
#

ie how long before the graph repeats itself??

#

are you sure?

#

so after pi, the graph repeats?

short orchid
#

it’s 2pi

crude comet
#

,w graph sinx, 0<x<pi

#

yes

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

thats correct

#

so how long does a cycle take here

short orchid
#

14

crude comet
#

ok

#

we know

#

for any waveform

#

say cos(n)

#

every time n increases by 2pi, the cycle repeats right?

short orchid
#

yes

crude comet
#

ok

#

so every time kx increase by 2pi, the cycle will repeat, right?

short orchid
#

yes right

crude comet
#

ok

#

so we know

#

every time x increases by 14, the cycle repeats

short orchid
#

yessir

crude comet
#

ok

#

so every k(14), the cycle repeats, right?

short orchid
#

indeed

crude comet
#

so this occurs when 14k=2pi

#

can you solve for k?

short orchid
#

k should be pi/7

crude comet
#

ok

#

so we know b = pi/7

#

what is the equation?

#

f(x) = ??

short orchid
#

3sin(pi/7x + 11.5) + 0

crude comet
#

ok correct

short orchid
#

no way

#

We did it?

crude comet
#

yes

#

it should be correct

#

lets see

#

,w graph 3sin(pi/7x+11.5) ,-20<x<0

warm shaleBOT
short orchid
#

YOOOOO

crude comet
#

it is incorrect

#

are you sure the function begins at -11.5?

short orchid
#

It begins at 4.5..

#

aha

crude comet
#

ok

#

so

#

,w graph 3sin(pi/7x+4.5) ,-20<x<0

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

oh wait

short orchid
#

do I dare say it starts at 2.75?

crude comet
#

yes

#

2.75?

#

you sure?

#

,w graph sinx

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

letme try again

short orchid
#

I’m stumped

crude comet
#

,w graph 3sin(pi/7x+4.5) ,-20<x<0

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

thats weird

#

let me check on desmos

short orchid
#

oh no

crude comet
#

one second

short orchid
#

No worries

crude comet
#

wait i think i know

#

we can try to solve it a different way

#

we have

#

$y=3\sin(bx+4.5)$

warm shaleBOT
#

hrdxpqurcxktdbanql

crude comet
#

what is the value of the graph at -15?

short orchid
#

(15,3)

crude comet
#

ok

short orchid
#

-15,3

crude comet
#

its 3

#

so

#

we know when y = 3, x = -15

#

can you plug it in here and solve for b?

short orchid
#

yes

crude comet
#

ok

short orchid
#

3 = 3sin(-15b + 4.5)?

crude comet
#

I think i told you incorrectly how to find b initially

#

yes

short orchid
#

b is long integer though

#

if I’m not mistaken

crude comet
#

h wait

#

no we had it right

#

its just the graph on wolfram

#

the x axis is in terms of pi

#

,w graph 3sin(pi/7x+4.5) ,-20<x<0

warm shaleBOT
short orchid
#

3sin(pi/7x + 11.5) + 0

#

^?

crude comet
#

it still looks wrong tho

#

,w graph 3sin(pi/7x+4.5pi) ,-20<x<0

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

I see

short orchid
#

AH

crude comet
#

that makes sense

#

to shift it one unit left, you have to do f(x+pi)

#

since if x = -pi then sin(0) = 0 ????

#

doesnt make sense

#

let me try another grapher

short orchid
#

Alright

crude comet
#

<@&286206848099549185> i need help

#

,w graph sin(x-3pi)

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

,w graph sin(x-pi)

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

,w graph sin(pi*x-pi)

warm shaleBOT
short orchid
#

oh dear

crude comet
#

i just googled it

short orchid
#

what was the result

crude comet
#

the phase shift depends on

#

,w graph 3sin(pi/7x+2pi/4.5) ,-20<x<0

warm shaleBOT
crude comet
#

1 sec

#

I see

#

finding the phase shift isnt so simple

#

ϕ=(xpeak−P/4) for the sine graph

#

$c=x_{peak}-period/4$

warm shaleBOT
#

hrdxpqurcxktdbanql

crude comet
#

the period is 14, that is how long it takes

#

where do the peaks occur?

#

at what x value

burnt anvil
#

we have two functions

#

f(x) = -x^2 + 5x

#

g(x) = -2x + 15

#

the distance A depends on the value of x

#

determine A as a function of x

tranquil beacon
#

You would just need to take the difference of the two functions

#

so g - f

burnt anvil

why

#

oh

A = g - f

Hi, I'm trying to collect the likes terms x^2 and 16x^2/9. I'm not sure how to combine them, some help would be really appreciated!

bronze nova
whole jewel
#

yeah

bronze nova
#

u factor out x^2

#

u get x^2(1+16/9)

#

=x^2(25/9)

#

since x^2 is the like term, u can factor it out

whole jewel
#

oh awesome thanks

whole jewel
bronze nova
#

x^2+16x^2/9 = x^2 (1+16/9)

#

when u factor out x^2 from x^2, u r left with 1

#

cuz 1*x^2 = x^2

whole jewel
#

oh ok thanks

whole jewel
bronze nova
#

1 + 16/9 = 25/9

whole jewel
#

bedmas?

bronze nova
#

yes

whole jewel
#

sorry still confused how you got the 25

humble valve
#

1 = 9/9 so then 9/9 + 16/9 you just add the top part straight across which is 25/9

#

I have the answer

#

remainder is 0

#

quotient is the anser

#

but what do I fill out for f(x)=

tame narwhal
#

if the remainder is 0, it's just a factorization

#

so f(x) = g(x) * q(x)

twilit dove
#

what if it wasn't 0

#

x^2-2x-4 is my answer

#

(x-3)(x+1) or something like that would be factored

#

not factorable

#

,rotate

warm shaleBOT
tame narwhal
#

if the remainder wasn't 0, I think it'd be f(x) = g(x) * q(x) + r(x)

twilit dove
#

g and r being?

tame narwhal
#

you're given g. r would be the remainder

twilit dove

okay I see

maybe it's factored form like this?

This is a question from the book Putnam and Beyond. I can't seem to wrap my head around the solution they provided. I know you are supposed to prove this by contradiction and understand the assumptions they made. But I don't get how S1 ∪ S2 is greater than 1+8/9 and the following logic. Can somebody explain their solution?

stoic yacht
#

then if you take any two surfaces and combine their areas with each surface having area 1, then assuming the surfaces perfectly overlap this combined area is 1, and if they don't overlap at all then their combined area is 2

#

now their combined area decreased the more that they overlap

#

let's say they overlap by exactly 1/9, then their combined area has to be 2 - 1/9

#

right?

lilac kayak
#

makes sense

stoic yacht
#

okay that's where the 1 + 8/9 comes from for two surfaces, and since their overlap is supposedly less than 1/9, their combined area > 1 + 8/9

#

now you take the third surface, and let's assume it overlaps by exactly 1/9 with each of the two other surfaces, then their combined area must be greater than the 1 + 8/9 of the two surfaces plus another 7/9 (the area 1 from the third surface minus the 1/9 overlap with each of the two other surfaces)

#

which means that their combined area of the three is at least 1 + 8/9 + 7/9

#

all they've done is repeat this reasoning and use the worst case scenario that each surface has just marginally under 1/9 overlap with each of the other surfaces

#

then they get the contradiction, and i think you got it from there

lilac kayak
#

ahh okay

#

the contradiction is that the combined area turns out to be over 5

#

right?

stoic yacht
#

yes

#

and the problem tells you it's exactly 5

yes got it

graceful ridge
#

does this converge or diverge?

obtuse pebbleBOT
bronze nova
#

what do u think

graceful ridge
#

Because I just stumbled on a way to make it converge on my own, idk if its valid though, say y = e^1 + e^2 + e^3 +... or y = e (1 + e^1 + e^2 + e^3 + ...) but wait wait that's just y = e (1+y), so y = e/1-e, LMAO Hilarious result

bronze nova
#

u cant manipulate divergent series like that

tacit leaf
#

Let's use the graph epower x

graceful ridge
#

it's the same kind of result as 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... = -1/12

tacit leaf
#

Integration will help

graceful ridge
tacit leaf
graceful ridge
#

Apparently it's called Borel regularization

tacit leaf
#

Their is no multiplication

graceful ridge
#

I just looked it up

graceful rapids
crude comet
#

your reasoning seems fine

tacit leaf
#

Leting a = e^1+ e^2.....

#

Now taking e common

#

So

bronze nova
#

assigning finite values to a divergent series is already nonsensical

tacit leaf
#

e(e^0+e^1+e^2...)

crude comet
#

e^1 + e^2 + e^3 = e (1 + e^1 + e^2 + e^3 + ...) = e (1 + e (1 + e^1 + e^2 + e^3 + ...)) = e (1 + e (1 + e^1 + e^2 + e^3))

#

lol

tacit leaf
#

Or we can integrate e from 1 to infinity

#

As the area of the graph is the answer

timid silo
#

Diverging

molten grove
#

yes it's true for any finite stopping point, it's literally just a geometric series with common ratio e. But this isn't a finite series you're asking about, it has no stopping point

graceful ridge
molten grove
#

and if you're familiar with the fact that geometric series diverges for common ratio geq 1

tacit leaf
#

E power infinite is infinite so answer is diverging

tacit leaf
graceful ridge
limber pelican
#

Since e^x is a function you can use the integral test

molten grove
#

you assigned the series to the value of y, doing so assumed the series converges in the first place which it does not

limber pelican
#

You will see that it diverges once you integrate it

crude comet
graceful ridge
molten grove
crude comet
#

y/e = 1+e(1+e(1+e(1+e...

molten grove
#

my brain cells please

crude comet
#

y/e - 1 = e(1+e(1+e).....

graceful ridge
molten grove
#

Yes

crude comet
#

((((((y/e-1)/e-1)/e-1)/e-1)/e-1)/e-1...) = y

molten grove
#

you've assigned a finite value to a series diverging to infinity

#

And then are doing infinity / infinity

#

When you think you are doing finite / finite

#

the manipulation you are doing is how you get a closed form for a geometric series in general, but it requires that the geometric series converges a priori

#

and that holds when the common ratio r satisfies |r| < 1

#

which e certainly does not

graceful ridge
#

Wolfram Alpha says it's a regularized result, and it's the same result that we got by assigning the series to y, does this mean although our method led to the answer, it's a wrong way of assigning value to a divergent series or is our method also valid for a "regularized result"?

molten grove
#

Sorry I am unfamiliar with borel summation extension so I don't have a good answer

#

intuitively it'll be that you're getting the value that makes the "most sense" if everything were to work nicely

#

but Ive not been exposed to the idea formally so that's the best I can say

graceful ridge
#

"In specialized mathematical contexts, values can be objectively assigned to certain series whose sequences of partial sums diverge, in order to make meaning of the divergence of the series."

#

"In physics, there are a wide variety of summability methods; these are discussed in greater detail in the article on regularization."

#

So, this kind of summation should only be applied in specialized mathematical contexts?

this does not seem like bc

#

or maybe im j stupid

#

I mean, you could just prove that the second sum is bounded by 478837378 by induction if you want too

#

U don't have to know the exact limit

sacred merlin

f it im j saying basel problem and hope that man doesn't mark me off

#

Hmm, maybe you don't need it for this problem

#

Oh, I'm stupid nvm

#

The inner sum is finite

sacred merlin
#

yeah I think I'm trying to prove that it's convergent

keen verge
#

I reckon just use comparison test

sacred merlin
#

a_n is convergent through comparison test and geometric series

#

b_n is bounded and monotonic

#

so i think thats enough proof to say it converges

winter surge
#

i missed a few lessons and have no idea how to approach b)

keen verge
#

I think forwards is easiest

#

But yeah, so you know that the equation for a circle is x^2+y^2=r right?

winter surge
#

yeah

keen verge
#

So just translate that so that P and Q lie on it ig idk

#

Alternatively

#

U can factorise that as (x + 5)^2 + (y + 45/2)^2 - 2213/4

winter surge
#

thats what i was originally thinkinf but no method seems clear from there to me

#

that works actually

#

ill try that

#

but i cant start with the thing im trying to show, right

keen verge
#

Nah, I reckon it's cool. Just show how you factorise that and your good

#

They give it to you, you just has to show that it holds

winter surge
#

ahhh that makes sense

keen verge
#

Alternatively, you could derive it yourself

winter surge
#

yeah i felt like it was implying i had to derive it

keen verge
#

But no one wants to derive anything they don't have to

1)Find middle point of PQ with Pythagorean and divide C by 2

winter surge
#

pq isnt necessarily along the diameter

limber pelican
#

Dosnt matter since 2 points will always make a line

winter surge
#

ah

#

also wdym divide c by 2

limber pelican
#

You know how to find the middle point coordinates in PQ?

#

You can check how x and y varies to go from P to Q

#

Then you divide the x and y variation you found

winter surge
#

oh i have the equation of a line

limber pelican
#

That’s gonna give you the middle point coordinates

#

Your comfortable with vectors?

#

You can than find a vector perpendicular to PQ

winter surge
#

yeah

#

i have a perpendicular bisector of the line

limber pelican
#

Then you can just start your vector from the middle point you found of PQ

#

That’s gonna give you two points to work with in order to find the equation

winter surge
#

aaaaalright

#

i dont see how this will work

limber pelican
#

At least that’s how I would approche it

#

You find the middle point of the line PQ

#

then find a perpendicular vector of PQ (vector product=0 when it’s perpendicular)

winter surge
#

i do have the vector

#

go on

limber pelican
#

Find the (a,b) of the vector you found

#

Then you add it to the middle point of PQ

#

You see where I’m going?

#

You will have two points of the line you want to find the equation off

winter surge
#

i can see what your goal is, but i dont necessarily see why that would work

#

the midpoint of PQ doesnt necessarily lie on the circle

limber pelican
#

Bisector of a line segment means the middle of the line

weary reef
#

I think what they are saying, you find the perpendicular bisector of PQ. That has to be a diameter

winter surge
#

ohhhh

#

i didnt think about that

weary reef
#

I think that's why the first question asked it

#

But yeah, that should be sufficient to solve it

winter surge
#

ok im getting it now, thanks

For 0.5 radians

#

I forgot what we do

#

Is it 0.5/2pi

#

Any help

crimson wave
#

hmm

timid silo
#

Omd wait

#

Is it

#

Errrr

#

0.5x^2/2

#

Right

crimson wave
#

i need to calculate 1 min

timid silo
#

Theta = 0.5 right

crimson wave
#

right

timid silo
#

So

#

To find area = 2xy + ((x)^2 theta)/2

crimson wave
#

oh shit

#

i dont have this lesson

timid silo
#

To find perimeter

crimson wave
#

talk to @ruby sequoia

timid silo
#

We do

timid silo
ruby sequoia
#

ahem

timid silo
#

I’ll just type

#

So
