$|z-1|=1\implies z=1+e^{i\theta}, \theta\in (-\pi, \pi]$

Sorry i'm not familiar with e^i theta notation
only cis
$z-1=\cos\theta+i\sin\theta$
kheerii
how about this
kheerii
try using trigonometric identities here
so the question becomes possible values of
$\arctan \left(\frac{\sin \left(\theta \right)}{\cos \left(\theta \right)+1}\right)$
?
cherry
so wouldn't possible values of that be the same as possible values of Arg(z)?

x + 6 lies on AE and 3x -8 lies on EB?
i guess u can just equate x + 6 = 3x - 8
solve for x, then substitute x back in the first eq

you cant use sin rule for the first one
cause for sin rule you need two sides and one angle
you have no angle
so you need to use cos rule
now think a little about if he has made any mistakes
also for the second one
you can not use sin rule
because you dont have the opposite angle for any of the sides given
so you would use the cos rule
I think you need to revise your sin and cos rule

elp im confused
um there are side lengths
for example b is the centroid
and 2x-5 is the length of YD
oh
that helps
idk i dont think so tho
ohh yes
for this
but idk how to identify since it looks pretty equal
wait so
here for eg
ye use the ratio
DY = DB + BY
i d often "figure out" . i jsut often look at the diagram and guess what is 1/3 and 2/3 lol
huh
Its 2x-5 - (3x-18)
okok tysmm
2x-5 -(3x-18)
2x-5 -3x+18
-x+13
tysmm
BY = -x+13
-x+13 = 2(3x-18)
-x+13 = 6x-36
-7x = -49
x = 7
2(7)-5
14-5
9
pls check work s
🎊 🎉

is this correct
x = 7 is corect

Do you know what the ratio EL:LY is equal to? If you can find out/know the ratio, the rest is easy.
excuse me yall
True, you can remember that EL = 2/3 EY and LY = 1/3 EY

if cot(θ) + cos(θ) = p and cot(θ) - cos(θ) = q , then (p^2 - q^2)^2 in terms of p and q is
!status
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above

I try to put the value in the equation
and get [ 4cotθcosθ ]^2
idk what to do next
(p^2-q^2)^2 in terms of p and q?
ya
this is fine though
do you have a picture of the question as given?
im afraid im not too sure what it wants then, sorry
@rough stump Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
I agree with AZ, the question doesn't really make sense
Are you sure this is the original wording of the question
Also, does it give you answer choices? Like multiple choice?
<@&286206848099549185>
We have $\left(p^2 - q^2 \right)^2 = \left(p + q \right)^2 \left(p - q \right)^2 = \left(2 \cot(\theta) \right)^2 \left(2 \cos(\theta) \right)^2 = 16 \cot^2 (\theta) \cos^2 (\theta) = 16 \cot^2 (\theta) \left(1 - \sin^2 (\theta) \right) = 16 \left(\cot^2 (\theta) - \cos^2 (\theta) \right)$ and now factorize and replace the factors by $p$ and $q$ accordingly, and you're done.
PowerUp
wait
let me solve this way
can you explain me 2nd last step
after we take common
You mean what to do after we get to $16 \left(\cot^2 (\theta) - \cos^2 (\theta) \right)$?
PowerUp
no
This step: $16 \cot^2 (\theta) \left(1 - \sin^2 (\theta) \right)$?
PowerUp
Are you familiar with the trigonometric identity $\cos^2 (\theta) = 1 - \sin^2 (\theta)$?
PowerUp
I just replaced the cosine squared with that identity
Thank you

gpt gave me 2 diff answeres , isn't ls x>-1 and ld x<-1
it's not continuous because ls is undefined

yes i get that that's why i asked here
do i take for left side ln(x+1) and right side x+3?
and for k(x)? do i use -2?
both limits must be equal to that value in order for the function to be continuous
Yes
The function $k(x)$ is continuous at $x=-1$ if $\lim_{x \to -1^{+}}k(x)=\lim_{x \to -1^{-}}k(x)=k(-1)$
🫎 Moosey 🫎
if one of these is not true, then the function is not continous at k=-1. There are several types of discontinuities
you only need to use -2 if both limits were equal to the same value. if they were both equal to -2, then it would be continuous function, if they were both equal to same value, but not -2 (say, 3), then it would be a discontinuous function. it would have a removable discontinuity/jump discontinuity
Ook , i get it now so they would've had to be -2
if you wanted to use -2 in anything, yes. but if the limits are not equal to each other, of if one is undefined, just halt there and say the function is not continuous at x=-1, maybe discuss the type of discontinuity, but that's all
ok so for a different exercise for example
not continuous
do i not use ls=ld here?
you can
how so
🫎 Moosey 🫎
so left side is 1/x and right side 0?
right side is 0^+ and left side is 0^- yes
but the x > 0 and x < 0 don't apply
???????
$x \ne 0 \equiv$ $x > 0$ or $x < 0$
🫎 Moosey 🫎
this piecewise function is basically a compact way of saying m(x) is defined as 1/x if x>0 and 1/x if x<0 and m(0)=0
Yes
I got that now , it was just logic
i will close this thread now thanks for the help

brain not working
to find the width
of smaller rectangular prism
width of bigger one is 10
hello again percy
yo
Thales ?
what does 4 represent
height of smaller prism
since
both together make a height of 9
oh
the height of the bigger prism is 5
didn't see that
cuz you outlined the smaller one out
but I can't find width
Draw the diagonal of the Lil prism and keep drawing to hit the line under
ye
hm
maybe it's not drawn to scale
Oh
idk
dont matter, you’ll just be using similar triangles
Anyway with values he can do thales
pretend the height=width of smaller prism
\wbat isthales
oh yeah
but you don't know where it hits and on which length
Thales theorem with similar triangle
teach
can you teach me thales
with this problem
Wait im trying to see if it works first
Oh ok
there has to be a way that is 10 million times simpler
a way that we just have to look at the image to figure it out
So the volume of Lil one is 192 and big one is 600 so added its 792 cm^3
Lmao
can you check this one for me
to find the triangle
we know base and height
so 12*7/2
42
*h
17
714
is the volume
It is right

any examples for this? I mean the n indep invariants, I'm not sure if i can think of any
I suspect they're the coefficients of $\det(A-\lambda I)$ as a polynomial in $\lambda$
Edward II
why?
Because this polynomial is invariant (relatively easy proof), and any polynomial will show up so the coefficient should (?) be independent
except for the leading term btw
is there any geometric meaning of the polynomials?
so for a 2x2 matrix this is the polynomial $\lambda^2-\lambda\operatorname{tr}A+\det A$
Edward II
(up to sign)
Mmm then how can we prove it's invariant? (I know it's a relatively easy proof but i have no idea currently
$M^{-1}AM-\lambda I= M^{-1}(A-\lambda I)M$
Edward II
oops
ok i see it now, so there's also no intuitive way to understand? tbh i just use poly to calculte but I have never figured out what is poly, what it represents
also eigenvalues of A are roots of the polynomial
so by Viete's formulae you can see the other invariants can also be written as like
in the case $n=3$ if a matrix has (complex) eigenvalues $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3$ (with multiplicity as roots of the polynomial)
the third invariant would be $\lambda_1\lambda_2+\lambda_2\lambda_3+\lambda_3\lambda_1$.
Viete's formulae ok a new word, I'll look it up
so do you have any ideas about this?
also known as Vieta, and I don't know why I said formulae because I normally use theorem
I think it's just a useful thing to know
like there's more facts about the polynomial you could find, but I don't think any of them are particularly intuitive?
like just a tool for calculating eigenvalues?
I can't think of anything right now

Ian walks from one end of a straight track to the other, then turns around and walks back. At
the same time, Mike leaves from the same place as Ian and rides an e-bike back and forth from
one end to the other until Ian returns to their starting point. Assuming both travel at constant
speeds with Mike’s speed exactly 9 times that of Ian’s, how many times will they meet on the
track after they start? [Note: The meeting at the very end should be counted.]

I don't think this is correct
b^2 - 4ac to determine the amount of solutions for the x-intercepts
which part?
correct
Yeah, but I might be typing it in wrong
because
it gives domain error
Which means no solution
However, this was written in my review packets and I dont quite know/rem
what did u type in?
square root (-4)^2 - 4(1)(3)
yeah that looks correct
no it does have 2 solutions
wait then
if the discriminant>0 then there are 2 real solutions
what are u typing that into?
am I supposed to solve the whole quadratic equation
yeah is that a graphing calc or something? idk how they work
Im not sure, its a texas intrument TI-30XS
whats the goal of this question? to find the no. of solutions or the solutions itself
the discriminant is b^2-4ac btw, not sure if that will solve ur calculator issue
okay, well, uhm do you know how to uh get a positive discriminant so it is 2 solutions?
or am I screwing up bc -4^2 is actually 16 not -16 which would make sense somewhat but also not at the same time
u should have typed (-4)^2 which would be 16
yes, (-4)^2 is different to -4^2
okay, I see, but my calculator is like cracked or something dumb like that
if I do that
it gives me some interesting answers
so next time I'll just solve (b)^2 seperate
thank you!
all good

how do i do this
So not reflexive and not irreflexive means there's going to be at least some relations that are self-self but not all. Not transitive means there are at least some self-other relationships, because we need an example of (a,b), (b,c) but not (a,c)
Solution spoiler: so we can have something like the set is {a, b, c}
||R = {(a, a), (a, b), (a, c)}||
||This relationship is not reflexive because (b, b) and (c, c) are not members. It is not irreflexive because (a, a) is. It is not symmetric because (c,b) is not a member, not transitive because (a, c) isn't, and is antisymmetric because (a, b) and (b, c) both don't have their symmetric counterparts.||

does it matter if I keep the 2 in that bracket
or if I bring out the 2^-2
I get the same answer with it cancelling out with 4
so I'm guessing it's right
u gotta “bring it out”, or it’s different
so (4)(2^-2)(1+3/2x)^-2 is fine?
mhm

it’s equivalent

it's called Chasle's relation
btw top of the page
you can join them since any vectors like AC can be expressed as AB+BC
Sorry i should be more clear
The vector ab and pq
Like your diagram
What if they were going in different directions
I recommend doing 2d plots for points instead of a number line when testing examples and trying to get a better intuition
The algebra expressed below the number line doesn't use the fact that diagram assumes all points are collinear so it is all good
Hmmm
basically
where im confused is
if a,b,c,p,q,r are points, then why couldnt it be like this
and then we would be unable to say that about is pq
am i just still thinking scalar

where does the -1 come from? i have watch linear regression derivative too but I still don't understand it
why it taking the -1 from the intercept, what rule is this?
You‘re taking the derivative wrt the intercept, and if you look closely, there‘s a minus sign before intercept. That means its derivative will be negative 1
chain rule
Also, yeah, maybe I misunderstood the question here 🫠
Oh i‘m really blind, I didn‘t see this, sorry :\
the chain rule that I found is something like this
I don't find anything that talk about being able to take out the number beside the x on d/dx
there are like 50 chain rules i swear
the derivative of [f(x)]^n = nf'(x)[f(x)]^(n-1)
oh is that how the rule go, thx 
wait no
when should I use
3x^2 to become 6x
and when should I use
3x^2 and become 6x × 3??
like when do you take out that number beside the x on d/dx

claim
need to be guided through this
So you are told to use bayes theorem
wait I'm going to rewrite what I already have
and show you where I'm stuck
this is correct so far yes?
Yes
We do not know the exactly probability a selection will occur only the ratio. But let make the assumption the probabilities are as above
Yes. You can alway transition from the definition of conditional probability to bayes theorem
okay so the part I'm stuck on is how do I find the probability of not S
So S is if a change occurs in profit
yes
Perhaps it will be easier to think about if we take the complement of the denominator
So we have 1 - P(S)
Now we need to find P(S)
Let S_A denote if A make a change, similarly S_B if B makes a change etc
So P(S) = P(S_A or P_B or P_C)
interesting
I'm trying to recall if I've seen this before
probably not though
this is new to me
is that gcse??
it's undergraduate discrete maths
P(A)P(S|A) + P(B)P(S|B) + P(C)P(S|C)
This is from using total formula of probability.
ohhh u r uni studuent
I wish had less intuitive way to explain it
what does P(A)P(S|A) mean?
multiply them?
yes multiply
hold on I'm going to process this
I get the feeling I made a mistake
I think the assumption I am making is that P(A and S) and P(B and S) are completely separate that is mutually exclusive
The notation you are using does not seem to be standard. It mostly likely meant to mean B|A but I would not use this notation
okay so
the answer I got from your solution lines up with everyone elses
so it's either you're right or everyone is coincidentally wrong
Maybe try the principle of inclusion-exclusion as a double check. Are we assuming only one person is hired or there multiple people hired?
It could also be no people are hired
I would hope we're dealing with the case that only one guy is hired
because of the initial statement of the odds of them being picked
I see. I will leave the rest to you

Hello, I want to start relearning maths again, and I have covers some topic, like solving equation, linear equation and some basic operation. I am bit confused about which topic are related to prepare for Calculus.
Is there book Or something like a list of topic that are necessary for calculus, @everyone
that field is called precalculus
and you can search for precalculus books or precalculus courses online. many are decent enough
Will it help me with algebra?
It can but you probably need to practice a bit on some basic algebra
if you don't really know how to like says factoring polynomial
It's this topic from algebra 1 or 2?
I don't know what you are talking about algebra 1 or algebra 2 given that I don't know what curriculum your school is using
Now, I will say that the bare minimum is to be able to factor polynomials and solve inequalities that involve polynomials. You sometimes need to learn how to dividing polynomial (long division) and partial fractions. You need trigonometry and stuff but that is not in traditional algebra class.

would rlly appreciate any help on what to do next for part b im a bot confused
please
Well, Phi approaches to Phi_0, what happens to the denominator?
cos this is what i know: well for +φo we get the numerator approaching 2φ and the denominator approches 0
but this is undefined
inside a Ln
so im not too sure what to say about it, and for -φo we get x(φ) approaching ln(0/-2φ)
and ln(0)is undefined
We can see the numerator is gonna be 2 phi
yeah
Yes but what happens to the fraction? Its value approaches...
Consider $\frac{1}{x}$, as x tends to zero, what happens to the value?

what do i do for ln(-0/2phi)
@weary reef
is this negative infinity as ln(0) is undefined
.reopen
✅
Approaching -phi_0 from the right, yes, it's negative infinity seeing as the fraction is < 1 as it approaches
ok
could u explain further
and approaching from left does it approach infinity
@weary reef
Just to be clear, do you mean approaches phi_0 or -phi_0
don't you mean -phi_0?
ah yes sorry my typibg, been doing this all day aha
yes thats what i mean
as it approaches -phi_0
Like we did before, the numerator is approaching zero (from a positive value), while the denominator approaches 2phi
The thing to notice is that (phi_0 + phi) / (phi_0 -phi) is a fraction less than 1 "during" this approach
and the ln of a number less than 1 (but greater than 0) is always negative
but would it not be negative anyway
cos it ln(0/-2phi_0)
also its not greater then zero its less than zero
this does not makse sense

im struggling with this, trying to do something with similar triangles or the pythagorean theorem but im not getting anywhere
hint: replace pentagon with any regular polygon and it will be true
thats not a proof of it working for pentagons though
it obviously works for squares and i could probably prove it for triangles with some basic algebra but a pentagon is much more complicated
no
consider scaling factors
what does [] mean in relation to polygons?
area
area
]oh ok
im trying something with that but i cant seem to get it to work
what do you have so far
let me write it down
i have that the scaling factor of BC to AB is sqrt(BC^2 + AC^2)/BC but its such a gnarly expression
maybe im just stupid and am missing something obvious but im really lost here
its the pythagorean theorem, thats how i know thats the scaling factor in the first place
ok, are familiar with the fact if you scale a side of a shape, the area increases with the square the scaling factor
for example if you have a square of side length 1 and scale it by the 3, the area gets scaled by 9
i know that for triangles and squares but i havent proven it for pentagons
or a regular n-gon
if youve proven it for triangles, triangulate your polygon
then boom free proof for any n-gon
true
so anyway, i would startby letting P be the area of a pentagon with side length 1
i dont know that area
yeah
i think ive got it
P(BC)^2 + P(AC^)^2 = P(BC^2 + AC^2), so we get the scaling factor for a new pentagon
the square root of which is sqrt(BC^2 + AC^2), which we know is the side length of P_C
i think thats proof
sounds good

I think I know how to solve this but im stuck on something
sin(x)=cos(x)
sin(x)/cos(x) = 1
tan(x) = 1
x = tan^-1(1)
The domain of tan^-1 means it should be pi/4 and 7pi/4
But as you can see from the graph its pi/4 and 5pi/4
I dont really understand...
do u know integration?
Sort of
are you sure tan(7pi/4) is 1?
No thats what im confused about
first of all arctan only ever spits out one value since it's a function, so arctan(1) is pi/4
but tan has period pi
so all solutions to tanx = 1 are pi/4 + k * pi where k is an integer
this is where 5pi/4 comes from
tan(7pi/4) = -1 btw, not 1
I get this
But I dont get how you got 5pi/4
you agree tan(pi/4) = 1?
Yes
arctan has range (-pi/2, pi/2) so arctan(1) = pi/4
tanx is periodic with period pi
which means adding or subtracting multiples of pi to the angle won't change the tan of that angle
Sry this means the blue line in the image right
^^
yes
Ok im with you so far
Yes makes sense
great, then you only care about angles x satisfying tanx = 1 on the interval [0, 2pi]
since that's where your integration problem is happening
pi/4 is one such x satisfying tanx = 1 on that interval, but if you add pi, 5pi/4 is another valid angle in that interval satisfying tanx = 1
Wait I dont understand this sry
you're trying to find areas between sinx and cosx for 0 <= x <= 2pi
Thats anywhere on the unit circle right?
which means you care where sinx = cosx for 0 <= x <= 2pi, or where tanx = 1 for 0 <= x <= 2pi
so you know that x = pi/4 is one such angle satisfying tanx = 1 and it's in your interval
any other valid angles would be shifted by factors of pi
so see if you can add or subtract pi from pi/4 to get another angle x in 0 <= x <= 2pi
adding pi gives 5pi/4 which is in that interval
Sry give me a moment I am a bit lost I need to reread your messages a few times 😅
Why between sinx and cosx?
thats wht theyre asking in the q: to find the area between the graphs y=sinx and y=cosx
Nice name haha we are brothers
But ok
🤣
Ok wait I need to reread these messages a few times again ahhaha
So sorry about this
Your profile picture is my brain right now Odina
🤣 which part is losing you
I was struggling to understand the tan bit but now were bringing sin and cos into it
I want to ask how sin and cos are related to tan but thats a whole other thing I am already struggling to grasp this other stuff haha one thing at a time
well we want to find the area between sinx and cosx on the graph, right?
Yes
red is cosx and blue is sinx
Yeye I get you
I was trying to find the x intercepts
I know you can see it on the graph but I wanted to work it out mathematically
But thats what I was struggling with
yeah
I understand that tan inverse of 1 is pi/4 + k
And you add numbers to k to get the other values
so x = π/4, using the arctan function
exactly
but we only want the first 2 positive intersections
But I thought that the domain of tan inverse was between pi/2 and -pi/2
range*
yeah so π/4 is wht arctan gets
reason why it cant be multiple is because functions must allocate an input to a single unique output
so it wouldnt make sense to say arctan(1) = π/4, 5π/4, 9π/4, ...etc
but in reality there are multiple angles that give 1 when put into the tan function
and to get from one to the other u jus need to add/subtract π
Why pi
thats why to get our next point of intersection, we add π to π/4, to get 5π/4 and we can use those 2 values for our integration
you could jus say thats a property of tanx
like it's always like that for tan
you can prove it using addition formulae asw
What do you mean due to symmetry sry
Ok I can remember that
So this is something else? It doesnt apply to this question?
If you look carefully if you flip portion C and portion D in a particular manner, it'll be of the same shape of B. We often use such visual observations to simplify the solution.
Ahhhh I see
C and D are obvious mirror images
We use such tricks for competitive exams of our country since time is a very important factor in it.
Hahaha im so bad at spotting things like that tho
And it's all mcq, no one's gonna look at your method
It takes practice, not that hard
A very famous professor of oxford once said
That a good mathematician is lazy. He/she will always try to think of a method before trying to solve it using pen and paper directly.
Such that it requires lesser amount of physical work (writing)
Haha I will learn the material first and then learn fancy tricks like this 😂 but thank you for showing me
I think I need a break now tho
My brain is fried LOL
Thank you everyone for your help, you are all very kind!

what did you find
x
x?
yes
so x=x?
yes and you should find a value for x?
yes
so what value did you find for x
so 4 is not a solutions since you can't divide by 0 right?
yes
and there is no other value for x that can make this equaiton possible
which means there is no solutions

~help
lemme send screenshot of work
this is my work
would i write it as f'(x)=13?
is my work right?
Where's the -22 coming from?
i used (f(x)-f(a))/x-a
oh
f(a)= 22
ok
Then yes, looks good
I think f'(x) = 13 is a more complete picture
but
I'd write it as the limit definition of derivative
so, lim x->2 f(x) = 13
prolly
ok ty
You would start with $f'(2)=\lim_{x\to 2}\frac{f(x)-f(2)}{x-2}$ then arrive at $13$.
or check what other examples in text book give

how did we get that quadratic
$If we know log_a (z) = log_a^2 (1/2z-1/16). We can take the sqrt of the argument and base of the argument. Doing this on RHS we get log_a(sqrt(1/2z -1/16)$
team132
From there getting the quadratic equation is easy
@dusky arrow Has your question been resolved?
can u still continue
So you have log_a (z) = log_a(sqrt(1/2*z -1/16))
Equate both of the arguments in the logarithms
And you will end up with quadratic

The absolute least value of √2sinx - √2cosx
A) -2 B) 0 C) 2 D) None of these
Do you know what the absolute least value of sin x or cos x by themselves is?
Yeah it is the smallest possible value the function can give as an output
Sine and cosine fluctuate between -1 and 1 when they are not multiplied by anything
So you can start with an inequality -1 <= sin x
But try taking the sqrt 2 out as a factor
- 1 < = sin < = + 1 and -1 < = cos < = 1
??
√2 ( sinx - cosx )
