where did this come from?
oh so I missed the equal sign
Yeah
how bout 6/-3=-2 where did that come from
Same
i thnk the last two calculations came from factoring out the -3 from the -9x+6 in the second line
You have +6 in the last term and you're factoring out a -3

Can someone tell me what they get here for a)?
max amplitude of 2
period of 2/3 pi
,w graph 2sin(3x)
,w convert 2/3 pi to radians
Amplitude is measured in what
Oh i see
Man i was thinking there was two measurements for amplitude but it made no sense lmao
Thanks i got it

You know angle ACE
Angle sum property of a triangle
You get ACE = 70°
Then the reflex angle of ACE must be 360-ACE
145
Then you can use the angle sum property of quadrilaterals for ADEC
@crimson sedge Has your question been resolved?
Since the exact places where the points are isn’t specified, consider what happens if F coincided with B
yea that’s what i mean by coincide
that they overlap
no
oh the parallelograms wont overlap fully
there’ll still be DEA
and FGC
try drawing a diagram
did u make a diagram?
show me ur diagram
it should look something like this
66 is right

How do I factorize this expression?
1)There isn't a common factor for all.
2)If I try to factor by a number a number will be left bcs they arent in even number
Ok wait
Oh
(4b-1)^2
@tropic oxide what next?
I have 4 terms but 2 are into the ()
So I can't factor out
you can factor the -8bc+2c
By 2c?
yep
Maybe - 2c
oh yeah sorry
Ok done
Another one it's a bit tricky for me
@blazing zephyr i factor by a
And I got
$a[(a-2y)^2-2ay+4y^2]$
Sarkes_the_jack
uh
i havent tried this but maybe expabding the square might help
Sarkes_the_jack
What can I do
wait did i mess up
?
oh nvm
Uhm so
how did you get 8y²
how about that other -2ay in the equation
Wdym
so
$(A-2y)^2=a^2+4y^2-2ay$
you got -4ay from the (a-2y)² right
Sarkes_the_jack
Like this
$(a-b)^2=a^2+b^2-2ab$
Skill_Issue
$4ay^2:a =4y^2$
Sarkes_the_jack
if you plug that in you get a²+(2y)²-2a(2y)
dont understand where?
$a[(a-2y)^2-2ay+4y^2]$
Sarkes_the_jack
What have I to do
expand the square, you just accidentally made a mistake here
$a(a^2+8y^2-4ay)$
Sarkes_the_jack
Isn't it?
check the ay part again
Uhm
ok ok
ok
$a(a^2+8y^2-6ay)$
Sarkes_the_jack
Wait a sec
yeah
Now what I have to do
idk XD

how do i go about solving this?
I would break each vector down to sin and cos
after summing them up you will get the overall effect of the 3 vectors
i sum up the x and y components separately?
I think so
also if i already have the magnitude of the 3, i thought i would just have to do basic addition and subtraction
this would be the resultant vector approximately i think
if you add all of em tip to tail
looks right
i still dont really know how i would find that remaining distance back to the origin
it's probably not a nice number
Pythagorean theorem would work
I hope
if you know his effect on x and y you could use it to find the vector

Heya! Im trying to factorize this equation using the quadratic formula, but I dont understand quite how they arrive at this answer. The fractions are honestly messing me up
Most videos tell me to solve it by turning the fractions into non-fractions, but my lecturer told me to keep them as fractions. Suffice it to say, he himself struggled to explain this solution to me as well, since in most worlds, I see this as an outcome, so where am I going wrong?
Even if you do tell me that the power of 2 belongs to 1/6 and not the x, that still confuses me as to how 1*1 becomes 25 all of a sudden merged with a +4/6
first off, why are you putting x's under the square root sign
when you use the quadratic formula, a, b, c just refer to the coefficients in the polynomial
so a = 1, b = 1/6, c = -1/6 there should be no mention of x's in there
so this would be:
$\frac{-1/6 \pm\sqrt{(1/6)^2-4(1)(-1/6)}}{2*1}$
except my latex is rusty :p
Sooshon
something like that if i havent made any more typos
Hmmm, yes this is sorta what it turned into
But im doing something wrong at this point
Since 1/6^2 becomes 1/36 and -4*1/6 becomes 4/6
But clearly the solution doesnt agree with me here
which solution are you even talking about
you sent two things and one of them seems like complete nonsense
(the second one)
The very first image
right so 4/6 becomes 24 / 36, add that to 1/36 = 25/36
wait hold on, how does 4/6 become 24/36?
multiply numerator and denominator by 6 to get common denominator (36), just basic fraction addition
$\frac{4}{6}\times\frac{6}{6} = \frac{24}{36}$

i need help with an integral
$\int_0^{\pi}\sin(x)\sin(\alpha x)\dd{x}$
RickyDicky
i did some work but idk why im not getting the right result
$\int_0^{\pi}\frac12\left(\cos(x-\alpha x) - \cos(x+\alpha x)\dd{x}\right)$
what's your work so far
RickyDicky
$\frac12\left(\frac{\sin(x-\alpha x)}{1 - \alpha} - \frac{\sin(x+\alpha x)}{1 + \alpha}\right)^{\pi}_0$
RickyDicky
when we substitute pi in
first one sin(x- alpha x) becomes sin(pi * alpha)
and second one sin(x + alpha x) becomes -sin(pi * alpha)
(Im actually not sure why that is but i figured that out, some explanation would be helpful)
$\frac12\left(\frac{(1+\alpha)\sin(\pi\alpha) + (1-\alpha)\sin(\pi\pi)}{1-\alpha^2}\right)$
RickyDicky
,w integral from 0 to pi sin(x)*sin(nx)dx
look at what wolfram gets
even the denominator is different
there's no 1/2 in wolfram's answer
yeah cause here you'd get 2sin(pi * alpha) in the numerator
That 2 cancels the 1/2
and in the denominator
what's the issue with the denominator
yeah and it also has a minus sign infront
ah
can u explain to me that thing earlier
about how sin(x-alpha x) becomes sin(pi * alpha)
x = pi right? so, sin(x - alpha x) becomes sin(pi - alpha pi)
I think i also got this part wrong here when i substituted pi
$\frac12\left(\frac{(1+\alpha)\sin(\pi\alpha) - (1-\alpha)\sin(\pi\alpha)}{1-\alpha^2}\right)$
$\sin(\pi - \alpha \pi) = \sin \pi \cos \alpha \pi - \cos \pi \sin \alpha \pi = \sin \alpha \pi$
numbpy
How did you get a minus sign everywhere?
Remember it in this way, pi - theta would lie in the 2nd quadrant, sin is positive there
RickyDicky
yeah, correct
$\frac12\left(\frac{(1+\alpha)\sin(\pi\alpha) + (-1+\alpha)\sin(\pi\alpha)}{1-\alpha^2}\right)$
RickyDicky
then we get this
Now just simplify
$\frac{\sin(\pi\alpha)(\alpha^2-1)}{1-\alpha^2}$
RickyDicky
somehow i end up with that
This should be + (1 - alpha) sin(pi alpha)
$(1+\alpha)\sin(\pi\alpha) + (-1+\alpha)\sin(\pi\alpha) = 2\sin(\pi\alpha)(\alpha^2 - 1)$
RickyDicky
cause $\sin(\pi + \alpha \pi) = -\sin(\alpha \pi)$
yep
ok well then
numbpy
the numerator would be
$\sin(\pi \alpha)(1+\alpha) + \sin(\pi\alpha)(1-\alpha) = 2\sin(\pi\alpha)(1-\alpha^2)$
RickyDicky
nah dude
you're thinking too much
$\sin(\pi \alpha)(1+\alpha) + \sin(\pi\alpha)(1-\alpha) = \ \sin(\pi \alpha) + \alpha \sin(\pi \alpha) + \sin(\pi \alpha) - \alpha \sin(\pi \alpha)$
numbpy

I don’t understand derivatives
One is integration
How do you know when to use what
So say 16x^2
16 • line thingy x^2dx
16 • x^3/3 = 4x+c
but why not 16 • 2x
integration symbol
only 13 
Yeah when you have $\int$, you integrate
GarlicBredFries
oh

question I’m getting is f(x) = x^2 + 1, find avg on 0,3

I need help with this
can I just use limit property and equate this to 0?
did you try l'hopitals?
I dont know how to do that
You don’t need to I don’t think so, you can split the fraction
you didn't learn that yet, sure? because these kinds of problems usually are built for that and it makes it trivial but yeah there are other ways
Do you know what the small angle approximation is?
you can also try to apply lim sin x/x = 1
Khan is great
Use this after multiplying the top and bottom by 1+cos(2x)
OR use this :
Cos(2x)= 1 - 2Sin²(x)
ye so you have 2sin²x/2x
multiply by x/x and isolate sin(x)²/x²
it screams for hopital ngl but he isnt allowed to use it
so whenever you have 0/0 or some other undefined forms cant remember em you are allowed to take the derivative from your top of your fraction and your bottom

Introduction to L'Hôpital's Rule
Practice this lesson yourself on KhanAcademy.org right now:
https://www.khanacademy.org/e/lh...
l'hopitals is basically: if the limit of the numerator and denominator individually is each 0 (this is one case at least, there are others with infinity), the limit of the whole thing is equal to the limit of the derivative of the top / derivative of the bottom
$\lim\frac{f}{g} = \lim\frac{ f'}{g'}$
something along those lines
I'll watch the vid... im super new to this topic
man im bad at latex 😄
Sooshon
if it's 0 / 0
Mehdi_Moulati
$\lim_{x \to a}\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = \frac{\lim_{x \to a} f'(x)}{\lim_{x \to a} g'(x)}$
$\lim_{x\to 0}\frac{1-cos(2x)}{2x} = \lim_{x\to 0}\frac{2sin2x}{1}$
as x - > 0 yeah mehdi is writing it much nicer, i forgot how to even do the limits on it
so as you can see that second one is a lot easier to do, you can immediately see what the answer is
@soft owl how do you get the color in your latex code anyhow?
Sooshon
$\lim_{x\to 0}\frac{1-cos(2x)}{2x} = \lim_{x\to 0}\frac{2sin2x}{1}$
like how to change text color ?
yeah
and well also this shows some kind of clearer coloring for the code itself
not sure how you got the bot to also show the code
oh i just answered my own question 😬
```tex
write your code here
Sooshon
add tex near the first 3 backquote
guys, after getting the derivatives of deno and numerator, I got 2sin(2x)/2
what do I do next?
calculate the limit
so I just substitute?
the limit on the right
yeah it's a continuous function so basically it's the same as the value i.e. plugging it in

how is this a negative?
number?
like the answer
4 -
should be a postive
positive
bc equal amount of -
kappa
therre isn't parenthesis so -4^4 = - (4x4x4x4)
parenthesis = ()
(-4)^2 = (-4)x(-4) =16
then it would be a pos
- 4^2 = - 4x4 = -16

Prove that, if in a triangle an exterior angle is congruent to the adjacent interior angle, then the other interior angles are acute. How can I prove this
So I know that I have 2 angles of 90°
The exterior angle is the sum of the other 2 angles
Let’s call our angles a,b, and c. Let the exterior angle be a+b, so that the adjacent angle is c, or 180-a-b. Then we 180-a+b=a+b. Simplifying, we get a+b=90
Ok one sec
Wait
Les cas de similitude des triangles : démonstration
Démontrer une égalité de produits de 2 longueurs.
Utilisation du rapport de similitude.
It's an example
I don’t understand French
de meme
Why is this not okay? Just set c and a+b equal and show that a+b=90, thus a and b are acute
In this video I go through some GCSE maths questions on congruency, specifically how to prove that two triangles are congruent using information about angles in polygons and angles on parallel lines.
This is different
It's Euclidean Geometry
Yea, I’m proving it using Euclidean geometry, not noneuclidean
Ask what
Just leave it here, let someone else try because I don’t understand
Obv lol
Maybe I have to let you see an example
just make a sketch, name the exterior angle like you want, and name the adjecent interior angle like you want. and then show me your sketch. i will try it.
Ok
and of course name all angles in the triangle like you want.
ok, we know the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180. can we use this?
I don't think
I think I have to create another triangle
Equal to another
And prove that the two ugual angles are 90° and then I have to say that the others angles are less then 90°
So basically I can only say
From the start
That omega and delta are 90°
Because they are ugual and their sum make 180° by costruction
So I can write
if we cant use, that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180, then i have to pass. sorry.
hmm, the sum of the angles = 180 is IMHO a main criteria of euclidian geometry. if this doesnt hold we are non euclidian.
then you are ready.
Btw seems to easy
alpha + beta = 90, alpha > 0, beta > 0.
the whole example seems to be one of the easier ones.
So let's try this
Prove that in a triangle ABC each of the two angles formed by the bisector AS with the side BC is greater than half the angle A.
@nimble veldt
Did you understood the request?
I used Google translate so I don't know
If it's clear
what is S?
It's like the point that the bisector have in, common with bc
just a moment
Okok
you mean S = D, and whe should prove the both angles at D are greater then half of A:
ok
ADB + ADC = 180
Ok
Assume ADB = ADC -> both are 90 degrees.
Oh k
I see where do you point
I send one page of my book
So you can try to understand what we learned
To apply
in this case we are ready, sinc CAB < 180, therefore is the half < 90.
ok, i see what you learned. just give me a little time.
try to draw a line trough A which is parallel to BC
??
the two new angles at A are the same as thoose two at D, an its obvious that the half at A is smaller
Uhm
Can you try to demonstrate
Like in the book
Just a try
Then I will adjust by myself
and this works with both sides/angles at S,
it means this two lines are parallel
nothing else. we are ready. the black angles are "the half of A", the two red angles are the same. and the red angle is greater then the black one.
.
Here says for example
EDb =Adc because opposite at the top
They are ugual for the 1st criteria of congruence.,...
@nimble veldt
Understood?
- EF is parallel BC
- FAS = ASB
- FAS > SAC
- EAS = ASC
- EAS > BAS
if a line intersects two parallel lines then the angles are the same.
Oh k
Didn't know
Ok I figure out
How I factor this?
@nimble veldt
It's one of the last factor I have to do
I have to divide by 2?
Or like 2atcx
But I don't get ot
i would try first to expand this and then have a look whats left.
you will get $4a^2t^2+4c^2x^2+4c^2t^2+4a^2x^2$
ThM
then group by t^2 and x^2
$4(at+cx)^2=4(a^2t^2+2atcw+c²x²)$ ok?
ThM
you missed 4 in the first line
yes, but do it with the 4 and then add.
you will lose the actx term, which is very helpful
It's like u
There are a lot of squares
But I think I can factor out
It's better
Two by two?
Or all with 4?
just group. the two with t^2 and the two with x^2
Ok I think
yes, i would take the 4 out, but yes.
what does the book say?
,rotate
,rotate
I though it was ax^2+bx+c at the start
there is, after you group.
$b^2+3b-4+bx+4x=b^2+3b-4+(b+4)x=(b+4)(b-1)+x(b+4)$
ThM
there is one step left -> (b+4)
$b^2+3b-4+bx+4x=b^2+3b-4+(b+4)x=(b+4)(b-1)+x(b+4)=(b+4)(b-1+x)$
No I don't think
ThM
.
Like at the start you thought already I had to factor by x
Why
its just expirience. a long expirience.
just to explain.
there are two terms with x. two out of 5 terms. -> group them
Like you look and says:oh I have to do this ahah
there is a b^2, so there is maybe someting like (b-a)(b-c)
Like I understand how to do
Oh
I will do the most difficult expression by myself so
Of the book
I want to see if I'm ready for the tomorrow test
So I let you see that
good luck, but you did so much the last days, i have no doubt that you will be sucesslful.
sound ok
take out 2^3 instead of 2.
You mean factor out by 2^3?
yes
But I have 2^2n+1
How
Maybe I don't have to factor it
But only the second and third term
doesnt matter $ 2^{2n+1}=2^32^{2n-2}$
Sarkes_the_jack
yes.
Ok let's try
but if n>0 it is not negative.
Sarkes_the_jack
Is it fine?
yes. see you the next step?
Sarkes_the_jack
Can it be?
yes. (2^3 missing, but yes)
oh no, -1
$2^3(2^{n-1}-1)^2$
ThM
Sarkes_the_jack
its is just the same.
$2(2^n-2)^2=2(2(2^{n-1}-1))^2$
ThM
Sarkes_the_jack
just look at $(2^n-2)^2$
ThM
Ok
$(2^n-2)^2=(2\cdot (2^{n-1}-1))^2$
ThM
$2^2(2^{n-1}-1)^2$
ThM
yes
if you have any questions just DM me.

I am trying to solve this question for an assignment of mine.
It's mostly a coding problem but I am not understanding how to translate from the problem description to actual code. I am willing to learn any free package in C++/python/julia to get this done
I just need help understanding how to go from the equation to actual code

then you should review the material given. question (a) is a purely conceptual question (okay, there's some very light geometry there) question (b) is just a torque balance, and question (c) is another conceptual one
part a and c are easy I just forgotten how to do the method for part b). There is not any resources my teacher has given that I can find I was just looking for an outline of some of the steps
I can try to find my own resources though so dw about it

they factorized the numerator and denominator so that the factor which was causing the expression to become 0/0 can get eliminated
and the limit can be evaluated without 0's getting in the way
the rest is that simple algebra
can you explain to me how they factored?
i really dont get it
like how did the 2x^2 become 2x in the next step and what happened to -27
(2x² - 15x - 27) = (2x + 3)(x - 9)

for questions like this do i use pi on the calculator or 180
I believe they likely result in exact values
And if not you write it in exact form
Unless the question says something like solve xxxxxx (Round to 2 decimal places)
when i used pi i got some long decimal but when i used 180 i got 3/4
That’s your calculator not being in radians mode

For calculating the weight of this boulder do you use sin or cos?
It's sin right because sin is the longest line / shortest line in the triangle?
@random forge Has your question been resolved?
@uncut veldt
I've figured out that i's actually cos. So is it 600 * 1.8 = boulder * 0.2 * cos 30 ?
Cos makes sense. Otherwise an angle of zero degrees would give “zero” force
However, you need to also account for angle with the 600N
I see. Is that cos60 then on the 600N side?
Otherwise they'd just cancel each other out right
<@&286206848099549185>
No also 30
They do cancel out
Because both are the same angle from horizontal
If the bar wasnt straight then you would need to account
so it's just 600 * 1.8 = boulder * 0,2 then?
Yeah

it is the absolute value function
the absolute value converts the negative to positive
so $|-4| = 4$
Lixera
i would assume so, because if they did not, then the equality wouldn't be correct
the | | are the usual notation for absolute value
type .close haha
Closed by @mortal ether
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
in general, you can represent the absolute value function as
[|x| = \begin{cases} \hphantom{-}x, &\quad x \geq 0 \ -x, &\quad x < 0 \end{cases} ]as a fyi
Lixera
it makes sense because what it means is basically like
if you have a positive number then it stays positive
if you have a negative number then the thing becomes -(-4) for example which is just 4
so again, positive

One number is six less than three times another number. If the sum of the numbers is 38, find the numbers.
Enter the two numbers separated by a comma, with the smaller number first.
not sure how to do this
algebra
a is 6 less than three times b
a + b is 38
gotcha gotcha
I forgot were just writing it
Okay I got that from there on do we sub one of the letters for 38?
so in our final equation we would have 38-3b= 6?
hmm
what happened to the b on the left side
we added b to both sides
no it doesnt become squared

Hello, how do I draw a graph given information about the limit? Specifically, if I know there's a vertical asymptote at a certain x value, but the limit from the right is a finite value?
For example, if f(x) has a va at 9, but lim->9+ is finite
then the graph would go to the finite number on the right. And go up/down to positive/negative infinity on the left.

f isn't even defined at 0 but ok
that doesnt matter tho
If it's not defined there, it doesn't make sense to ask if it's continous there
I think the question should be is f at 0 continues with x -> 0
Should be if f can be made continous for an appropriate choice of f(0)
i.e. if the left and right limits are the same
And finite
yeah anyways, we need OP to engage here. Clearly the function is not defined at x = 0, thus it is discontinuous there. You have to show what type of discontinuity there is at x = 0 by checking the limit of the function as it approaches 0, as giannis has stated @crimson sedge
What does x =/= 0 at x = 0 mean? I'm confused to that part.
test the function's continuity at x = 0 and everywhere else basically

how can i prove that $\frac{x \ln x}{x^2-1} < \frac{1}{2}$ if $x>0, x\neq 1$ ?
пчел
find the max of the lhs using calculus
And also don't forget to show that the lhs doesn't approach infinity anywhere

hello
how did they got the second line?
i know that
P--->Q == notP V Q
so if they used this, it needs to be
notA(x) V B(x)
right
but top line has notB(x)
so if that individually is true, the entire conditional is true
The mistake of missing a negation sign is one that you’ll never stop making as a mathematician
OR not A(x) like they have for vacuous truth
so the 2nd line isn't true?
but
chicken butt
yea
you can also think of ur actual conditional in terms of p/q
where Q is (not B(x))
if Q, the conditional is true

if gcd(a,b)=1 then -1^(a/b) is imaginary
a=1, b=1
You can have a/b as an integer
b isn't 1 anyways
Since a and b are coprime, they don’t share any factors, thus a/b is not an integer
damn
