how do we prove it, cuz isnt it already obvious cuz we cant make one out of the other?
we have to show that if we set this linear combination equal to the zero matrix, then a=b=c=0
(which is just the definition of linear independence)

Stuck on this trig identity
Try cross multiplying the two fraction and using some identities
try evaluating the difference of the two fractions
oh the LHS
hello! try not to post in a channel thats already taken though
Sorry I had the channel open and was typing
Wait is it just -2sinx
??
make a common denominator for the fractions in the LHS
and add them
oh like from the secx and tanx fractions
yep
Do I continue by changing the denominator to 1?

hey guys
can anyone help me with this question : If 24 m of fencing are required to enclose a rectangular garden, what is the area, A, of the garden as a function of the length of one side?
im a dumb highschool student 😦
@junior granite Has your question been resolved?
A = length x width
do you see any way to express the width in terms of the length?

to show that ABCD for instance is a parallelogram, i only need to show the AB is parallel to CD right
i feel like i have to show smth else too but its been so long i forgotr
You have to show ab = cd as well
would it be half of AC
Yup
how would i show that though?
Do you know how to show two triangles are similar
Similarity tests.. SAS in particular
Ratio of corresponding sides is equal to each other
And the angle between the two sides is the same
Then the two triangles will have all the same angles
And the corresponding ratio of the third side will be the same too
So DZ/DA = DY/DC and angle zdy = angle adc
Does that help?
still confused how this would work with YZ and WX
Because y and z are midpoints and they have a common angle, the two triangles are similar. So think of it as just being able to expand the smaller triangle by twice the size to get the bigger triangle
In that case, how would YZ and AC be related?
Apply the same logic to wx and ac
To show that in addition to being parallel, they are equal too
so would it be enough to show that WX is parallel to YZ using the midpt. thm
and then with that you could see that WX = ZY = AC/2
using similar triangles

hi, can someone explain the difference between reflexive and irreflexive and why not reflexive != irreflexive
,w irreflexive
"Not reflexive" means there exists an element x, such that x is not related to x
"irreflexive" means EVERY element x is not related to itself
oh so the element is not related to any element
You can have relations that are not reflexive, but also not irreflexive
like element p is irreflexive, it doesnt have a relation with any other element
would this mean that element x is related to every other element other than itself
"irreflexive" is a property of a relation, not an element
A relation is irreflexive if no element is related to itself
oh wait
A relation is not reflexive if some element is not related to itself
ohhhhhh
so irreflexive is for all
eh no i meant
not reflexive is for all
wait
so irreflexive is for all
but reflexive is there exists
is that correct haha
Well, "not reflexive" is a "there exists"
A relation is reflexive if all elements are related to themselves
oh right
Therefore, a relation is not reflexive if there's a single element that isn't related to itself
What the heck it can pull up definitions?
not reflexive -> there exists
reflexive -> for all
irreflexive -> for all
I know right

So you're telling me I did not need to screenshot a Google page, crop it, and send it

I hate everything
I was like "I'm not going to pretend I know what irreflexive is off hand" haha
itsokay now you know
better late than never
oh also i get the meaning
Pretty good summary

Most obvious relations are reflexive
You'd need to make a weird one to get irreflexive
I don't dm questions sorry, haha. But, feel free to send it here!
Worth asking, do you understand the relation? Like, if I handed you two different jobs, could you tell me if they're <?
erm not really, can i try explaining to see whether my understanding makes sense?
Sure!
set J = {set of jobs represented by J1 J2...Jn}
each J can be represented as {sk, ek}, where sk is the start time and ek is the end time so sk < ek, k in {1,2,...,n}
so the example shows us 8 jobs and each of their timings are depicted in the number line
the relation < denotes that two jobs have a relation if and only if job 1's ending time is less than or equal to the starting time of job 2
woah wat
So if I told you that I1 < I7, you'd say true/false?
Yeah it seems like you get it!
Okay. So none of the jobs can possibly end before they start
so ill have to show that ALL elements' ending time is > starting time
so none of them could possibly be reflexive
Sure sure
Irreflexive:
Irreflexive denotes that ALL elements are not reflexive.
Let x $\in$ J, then x: {$s_1, e_1$}
Proof by contradiction:
Assume x $\prec$ x.
Then, e1 ≤ s1.
This would mean that the time that job x ends is the same as the time when job x starts.
This implies a contradiction as such an instance would never occur.
Thus, x $\nprec$ x.
Hence, no element $\in$ J is reflexive, thus $\prec$ is irreflexive.

wtf
@brave bramble i dont get the anti-symmetric one
anti-symmetric means that if two elements have a relation then both elements are the same right? but its not the case in this scenario
why not?
erm because an element cant have the relation on itself
or i mean an element cant be $$\prec$$ to itself
so it doesnt make sense
i think
HellO
yes because it's irreflexive, but why does that mean not anti-symmetric?
erm wait
anti-symmetric denotes that $$x_1 R x_2 \land x_2Rx_1\implies x_ 1 = x_ 2$$
uh wait
HellO
Hello I am back
helloo
You can't call an element reflexive. That's not something an element can be. But, you can say an element is "related to itself"
ohh
That is, xRx or x < x here
Otherwise that's great, yeah!
Not necessarily "the same time", but also could be "before"
That's a nitpick though. It's clear you know what's going on with that proof.
XD
Similar idea. There is no single x and y such that, given xRy, then yRx
It's "no elements follow symmetry at all"
oh wait
OH
because the "if" part doesnt succeed at all
so the right side wont be reached
ohhhh
thanks alot hah
But that never works here, yeah
Feel free to ask if you have anything else!

What did you try to do?
I differenated and subbed in 8
that sounds like exactly the right thing to do, modulo the typo in the word "differentiated"
you can disregard the second half of my last message
anyway
what is the issue here?
does your answer not match that of the answer key?
i got 165 and the asnwers say 181
That looks right to me, maybe there's a mistake in the textbook you're using
bad notation
it's not S = 3t^2 - 4t + 5, it's dS/dt = 3t^2 - 4t + 5
also let's check
,calc 3 * 8^2 - 4 * 8 + 5
Result:
165

Is my approach in/correct?
your handwriting is nigh unreadable
Wrote it with my mouse.. but yes used the mouse with my hand so handwriting. Will wait for a translator I suppose.. will rewrite it if no one can decipher it.
just rewrite it anyway
hmm
no, this is not correct as stated
it can be fixed by adding 3P(A ∩ B ∩ C) however
Isn't P(A ∩ B ∩ C) the scenario in which all three hit their target which is not what we need?
It's not about that, Set theory, inclusion exclusion. You removed that part an extra number of times.
let me make a diagram
Will try to confirm it via venn diagrams.
here you go
P(A) - P(A&B) - P(A&C) counts P(A only) with a coefficient of 1 but it also counts P(A&B&C) with a coefficient of -1
so when you do this for B and for C too and add it all up
you end up with this
The arithmetic operations are occurring one-by-one correct? Because if we were to subtract P(A&B) and P(A&C) from the original P(A) that would give us -2 for P(A&B&C)..
no
look at the diagram
A&B&C is a subset of A
and as you can see i've put a red +1 in every region contained in the A circle
to reflect the addition of P(A)
so the A&B&C region ends up with +1-1-1 = -1 as its coefficient
I see it now; it was +1 initially and after subtracting two it becomes -1.
yes
That was certainly an enlightening experience. Thank you for your time and assistance.

How to do B hmm
in a you found a way to write (1, 0) as a combination of (1, 2) and (3, 5)
what b asks
i think
is to do the same thing with the "vectors" p1 p2 and p3
using the given B
so using
1
x
x(x-1)
and x(x-1)(x-2)
ohh
that's how i read it
okaii
does that make sense?
in A you have
[1 3 ] [1]
[2 5 ] [0]
[1]
[2]?
$\lambda \begin{pmatrix} 1 \ 2 \end{pmatrix} + \mu \begin{pmatrix} 3 \ 5 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \ 0 \end{pmatrix}$
Katharine
Ohh
and you have to find lambda and mu
i could be wrong though
it could be the case that v1 is already in terms of the basis
and you need to find the x and y components
oo i dont think so? They say i have to give in terms of basis
i think i'm right though because for b the first way makes sense
so p1
do i do it by row reduction
our basis is {1, x , x(x - 1), x(x - 1)(x - 2)}
and we want to use this to create x^2
by only adding multiples of the basis
Ohhh
I see
which one of our basis has x^2
sorry, but how do i find lambda and mu?
by splitting that equation into 2 equations
Oh wait
Okk
I understand what is going on but idk how to apply 
b is actually a bit different in the way to solve
because in b you have a 1d "vector" made from the basis
so the whole 2 variables 2 equations thing won't work
but what we do have in our bag
is the fact that using linear combinations
aka
adding and subtracting only
we cannot change the degree of the polynomials
Ohhh
so if in our answer
we want x^2
that means in our basis we have to find the one that gives us a term x^2
or a multiple of x^2
and we can then later try to get rid of any numbers
Only x^2 so no other variable?
or x terms
ooo
we can just add and subtract and get x^2 but how to find the basis for it, do we write it in matrix?
let me say it this way
we want to get x^2
we have
{1, x , x(x - 1), x(x - 1)(x - 2)}
so what we want is
$\lambda + \mu x + \zeta x(x - 1) + \eta x(x - 1)(x - 2) = x^2$
Katharine
i hope this is clear
to me it looks a bit cluttered
but my point is that we have to find all those letters
lambda mu zeta and eta
and to do that is normally very difficult with 4 unknowns
but what we know is that the maximum degree is x^2
so eta
the last term
is 0
because if you get rid of those parenthesis you will get x^3 term
i hope that makes sense
Ohh got it
ye
you can ask
Remind me, what does it mean for something to be a basis?
Umm vectors that cannot represent each other, and is the simplest way to describe span?
Okay, this is an interesting definition
Perhaps there is a more precise definition? What does it mean that they cannot represent each other?
If you're working from a textbook, the definition should be in there somewhere. Why not have a look back and remind yourself.
ahh okay
I'd like a precise description of what it means for three vectors to be a basis for R^3
OK, where are these questions coming from? A course?
yes a summer coursw
Has your teacher at any point given you a definition of what a basis is?
i think i have the notes
OK, you should check these notes because the definition of a basis is one you should be able to recall immediately
ahh my question is b, i think
So you can definitely do 3(a)?
OK
Now you'll have to excuse me, because your course uses notation that I don't know
What is $P_{B_1 \leftarrow B_2}$? I don't know what this means.
Boytjie
Feel free to ping me once you have this information
OK, so it is a matrix that takes a vector in the basis B_2, and expresses it as a vector in the basis B_1?
Great.
So a vector in basis B_2 is like this:
$\begin{bmatrix} a \ b \ c \end{bmatrix}_{B_2} = a\begin{bmatrix} 1 \ 0 \ 0\end{bmatrix} + b\begin{bmatrix} 1 \ 1 \ 0\end{bmatrix} + c\begin{bmatrix} 1 \ 1 \ 1\end{bmatrix}$
Boytjie
Do you think you can try to do that?
Express this vector above in the basis B_1
In fact, apologies, I made a small mistake above
I used the basis B_1 already, when I meant to use the basis B_2
I'm going to quickly rewrite it
This is correct: $\begin{bmatrix} a \ b \ c \end{bmatrix}_{B_2} = a\begin{bmatrix} 1 \ 1 \ 1\end{bmatrix} + b\begin{bmatrix} 0 \ 1 \ 1\end{bmatrix} + c\begin{bmatrix} 0 \ 0 \ 1\end{bmatrix}$
Okk no worries
Oh my goodness sometimes I hate latex
😆
Boytjie
There we go
Please write this out in full. What you've written doesn't make sense to me.
So what is this meant to be?
It'd be great if you could write this out on paper, though I can read this fine
OK

I need help with question 15
ik this function x + 1/x decreases from [-1, 0) and increases from (0, 1]
so how can I prove that it is strictly increasing in [-1, 1]
You could use derivatives
I don't understand what 'interval disjoint' means
its not
Is that image upside-down?
it will be 0 for 1 and -1
,rotate
wait sorry
Nice u finished almost everything
for (-1,1) the derivative comes out to be -ve
Threw me off for a second because it looked like actual numbers and stuff when it was upside down
Recall that that if its continuous it cant changr signs between critical points
This
Also disjoint means everything not in that interval lmao
I don't understand what the question means by 'interval disjoint from [-1, 1]
ohhh
bruh
like
okay
then this question is tooo easy 😭
I literally thought that I need to prove that this function is increasing in this particular interval

Make the base 2
Can u give me step by step?
No
Use what we told you
Make the bases the same
And only manipulate the base
Good first step!

how do i simplify the expression sin(60)cos(30)+sin(30)cos(60)
sin = opposite/hypotheneuse
$$\sin(a+b) = \sin(a)\cos(b) + \sin(b)\cos(a)$$
Nathan_
oh
Have you seen that one before?
If not there is another way to do it but this is the quicker way
whats the other way to do it
these are all special angles
evaluate directly
To remember the exact values for sin cos and tan ( tan not needed in this case ) for 0, 30, 45, 60 and 90 degrees
Not sure what that is but if its a way to remember exact trig values then yes
so how do i use this to solve it
Find the angle you want
The x coordinate is the cos of the angle and the y coordinate is the sin of the angle
so sin60 = sin 1/2
Sin60 = sqrt(3)/2
Yep

Therefore L statement to the line below
I just dont know how they got what they did

e^4t -2e^2te^-2t+e^-4t
riemann
Should be -2 right
That is such a horrible way to write your steps wtf. It’s not obvious at all
I didnt write it
Did you figure out what they did there btw?
Kinda, they expanded it and put it back in factored form
And then the next step goes
You get a -8 in the middle when you expand it, group by 4, you get a +2, then you can put it back together
Whoever wrote that needs to go to algebra jail for showing off
Showing off?

Hiya , should be a quick one.
Max..
(a+b)²=a²+2ab+b
(a+b)²-2ab=a²+b²
But moved the 2ab to the other side
You've shown that $(a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2ab$ so $(a+b)^2-2ab= (a^2+b^2+2ab)-2ab=a^2+b^2$
Max..
Np bro, u were basically there!

how would i find y
wat
cos= x/r right
i dont know what you mean but yh sure
but the 3 things i told u
if u play around with it
u will find the answer
cosD=2/5
draw triangle
SOHCAHTOA
why u graphing when the 2nd step says draw a triangle
draw a triangle bro
then maybe u ll see what to do
let me ask you. what does it mean to find the cos of an angle?
what does cos mean?
how would you find the cosine of this angle
galactica bro watch a video on right angle triangles
i have omg
clearly havent
radius of what
ok
what circle
ok where is the circle in a right angle traingle by itself
how is the unit circle defined?
what if theres no circle
okay not in a right triangle
what is the radius
5
oh kurwa
and ofc i heard that word lol
watch a video
.
MIT grad shows how to solve for the sides and angles of a right triangle using trig functions and how to find the missing sides of a right triangle with trigonometry basics. To skip ahead: 1) For HOW to CHOOSE A TRIG FUNCTION to solve for a side you don't know, skip to time 2:10. 2) For how to SOLVE for the LAST SIDE with TRIG, skip to time 6:18...
wdym by defined
i literally watched this exact video
the hypotenuse isnt the radius
because x=2
oh kurwa
well it's rather tricky to define the word "define"
giannis u got this one
wdym by unit circle
ok so it's a circle
what makes it a unit circle tho
all circles have a radius
right so unit circles have radius 1
let's say you wanted to find cos40
how would you do that?
just converting it into a decimal? wdym
bro u went straight to cos 40
listen
the question says hint:draw a diagram
if u drew a triangle
where is the radius
?
how would you find the value of cos40
ok what is the longest side called?
man forget the circle
dear god
throw the circle in the bin
what measurements u given?
yes
and where is there a circle mentioned there
u can draw a circle
yes
yes
ok so draw a right angle triangle
with the angle and the sides u know
and label them
lemme take this
let me show you
.
bro forget the damn circle
just draw the triangle with hyp 5 and 2
bruh
saying bruh isnt helping me understand at all
kk
wdym by x
is x a side of a triangle?
yes
which side
adjacent, opposite or hypotenuse?
adj
first finding the angle of d
you already know 2 side lengths
how would you do that
you want a numerical value for the opposite side length, remember
= sin-1 (opp/hyp)
FYI, these are right triangles, you are dealing with and when you drew hyp = 5, that's the length of the hypotenuse, not the coordinates of it
looking from the other
kk
you would like to get a number for the opposite side
without a calculator
except for standard operations
24deg, then adj=5cos66
is D = 24 degrees?
ok try to not to use your calculator
why
do you pythagoreas' theorem?
you can get a more precise answer otherwise
2
it's not 2
how
try to use pythagoreas' theorem
You're finding the missing side of that triangle
jesus christ this is going nowhere
i did it
its 2
rounded
wait
Mandem he needs to learn the basics
i know the basics
also for the answer you require the exact answer, not a decimal approximation
.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
what's a,b,c
c is hyp
yes
What value is the hypotenuse in that triangle?
a and b can be either sides
5
You have a side, what value is that side.
2
Plug that into for a or b, whatever you want
Then solve for the other variable
What value do you get?
no calculator
can you give me like 5 seconds to think
You can't enforce that. It's pointless
take your time
wdym
Bro spoon feeding him the answer is not helping either
It just means he has no understanding of what hes doing
you literally havent helped at all either
It's pointless to try to enforce no calculators
Like i said watch a video and acc try to understand what its saying
I'm not feeding the answer. I'm stating what should be done next, not filling in the blanks
i literally have been watching videos
thats why i came here lol
to be taught
its math help for a reason
anyways
Help not answer
its not answer lol
When you filled in the values into Pythagorean theorem, what is the equation you have?
ive been sitting here for 2 hours trying to undertsand this
p sure D (not the angle) has tried a fair amount to help
.
5^2= 2^2 + b^2
which then i need to rearrange
yes
do it
Rearrange to what exactly?
should be obvious from context
to solve for b
Good
Someone who is low leveled could have said, set equal to 2^2
Bro he is learning sec
No one asked for your input
pls stop lurking here and go answer somebody else
i don't think they're that "low-leveled"
You never know, unless you ask
well they were going to rearrange it however they thought they should anyways
ok but moving on
b=sqrt21
the question asks for sinD
would sinD= sqrt21/5 ?
why
y as in adjacent, opposite, or hypotenuse?
opp
yes
wait
well actually not quite
this triangle definition of sin, cos, tan is only for angles between 0 and pi/2 but it extends quite naturally to more angles using the unit circle
with the unit circle, we allow for negative values for sin cos tan as well, which is not possible in just a triangle
this is correct; D is in the 4th quadrant
yayayyyyy
i have another question tho from my work that i skipped over earlier, could you help? cuz clearly you helped me quickly lol
maybe or someone else might help. you can just post ur question
calculator
what did you type in ur calculator
nothing lol
359.212?
yup
yup

could someone help me with this?
put over a common denominator
so something like this?
