o

flat frigateBOT
#
\[ \lambda \]
opaque sorrel
#

can i plug this

#

into wolfram

#

or smth

toxic stratus
#

uh

#

i guess catshrug

opaque sorrel
#

how thou

toxic stratus
#

but like you'd assume the problem set has nice polynomials

#

so that you can actually solve for lambda by hand

opaque sorrel
#

o

#

ok lemme

#

do

toxic stratus
#

use like the lagrange expansion or whatever it was called

#

or was it cauchy

#

too many famous math people

opaque sorrel
#

uh

#

idk wat that

#

is

toxic stratus
#

laplace

#

lol

opaque sorrel
toxic stratus
opaque sorrel
opaque sorrel
#

o yeah

#

speaking of which

toxic stratus
#

i think A - λ might be easier ngl

opaque sorrel
#

computing matrix multiplication is

toxic stratus
#

then you dont have to invert A

opaque sorrel
#

O(n^3) right

toxic stratus
#

uh

#

no

opaque sorrel
#

o

#

wai

toxic stratus
#

naive algorithm is O(n^3)

#

you can get better

opaque sorrel
#

is it by using

#

diagaonglaixiation

#

A = P^-1DP

#

so like

#

A^n = P^-1D^nP

toxic stratus
#

no i dont think thats a good idea

opaque sorrel
#

o

#

wai

toxic stratus
#

diagonalisation is hard in general

#

much harder than multiplying matrices

opaque sorrel
#

o wutttt

#

lemme ask that after this question

#

wait pls

plucky elk
#

at least for j) it's a permutation matrix so its eigenvalues are roots of unity.

opaque sorrel
#

whats a permutation matrix

toxic stratus
#

matrix which permutes the coordinates

opaque sorrel
#

wait how did u guys infer that

#

from j

toxic stratus
#

cuz the columns are just the standard basis

#

but permuted

opaque sorrel
#

ohhh

#

thats cool

#

how do i find determinnatn via wolfram

#

lmao

toxic stratus
#

uh

#

det?

opaque sorrel
#

,w determinant ((x + 1, x), (2, x))

toxic stratus
#

it works thinkies

opaque sorrel
#

o shit i can do that

#

yesss

#

,w det ((x + 1, -1, -1), (2, x - 2, -1), (-2, 1, x))

opaque sorrel
#

whoever made wolfram is goated

#

@toxic stratus sad

#

the answers wrong

#

oh wait

#

do i need to

#

factorize it

toxic stratus
#

that looks like a different question hmmCat

opaque sorrel
#

,w factorize x^3 - x^2 - x + 1

opaque sorrel
#

o

#

ah wait

#

its different

#

oops

#

im confused

#

oh wait

#

lmao

#

this is

#

part h

toxic stratus
#

yeah

#

looks right

opaque sorrel
#

very nice

#

now

#

eigaengvlues

#

i just

#

,w factorize x^3 - x^2 - x + 1 = 0

opaque sorrel
#

that

#

so eigenvalues are

toxic stratus
#

solve for the roots

opaque sorrel
#

x = 1 and x = -1?

toxic stratus
#

ye

opaque sorrel
#

a ha

#

ok

#

now

#

basis for egigenvinvsapce

opaque sorrel
flat frigateBOT
toxic stratus
#

so if you rearrange that

flat frigateBOT
toxic stratus
#

the nullspace are just the vectors which satisfy that equation

opaque sorrel
#

hm

#

wheres the I tho

toxic stratus
#

oh i just elide the I lol

#

cuz its all the same

flat frigateBOT
opaque sorrel
#

so the I

#

is jus tto make

#

the eigenvreelaue a matrix

#

to make it make sense

toxic stratus
#

in a sense yeah

opaque sorrel
#

o!!?!?!?

flat frigateBOT
opaque sorrel
#

now

#

i want to find

#

the basis

#

for eigenspooces

#

so

#

each eigenvalue

#

has a unique eigenspace

#

ok

#

so

#

man so many terms

#

so conufisng

toxic stratus
#

mm

opaque sorrel
#

hi

#

so

#

lets say

#

eigenvalue = 1

#

ill sub inside

#

I(1) - A

#

right?

toxic stratus
#

yeah

#

i think its probably easier to do A - lambda tbh

#

cuz then you dont have to negate the whole A

opaque sorrel
#

and this is because the eigenspace is in the nullspace of I - A

toxic stratus
#

less error prone

opaque sorrel
#

o

#

ok

#

yes

flat frigateBOT
opaque sorrel
#

and for this can i just treat it as such

#

like the

#

charactiersitcs polynoniamal

toxic stratus
#

uh

#

you can just solve the equation

#

like

flat frigateBOT
toxic stratus
#

its just like your usual gaussian elim stuff

opaque sorrel
#

o

#

okai

#

one momento

toxic stratus
#

hmmCat yeah i guess so

opaque sorrel
#

hmm

#

different answer

#

sus

#

perhaps i made a mistaook

toxic stratus
#

you're not done yet

#

should be fine

opaque sorrel
#

o

#

wait

#

lemme recap

#

so like

#

lambda is 1 which is an eigenvalue

#

then i want to find the line/plane/etc of that lambda

#

which is the eigenspace

toxic stratus
#

yeah

opaque sorrel
toxic stratus
#

yes

opaque sorrel
#

o

#

okay

#

now

#

so

#

to solve for that

#

i equate A - lambdaI

#

i mean find

#

and this charactertisctic polyoasmisaal

#

what would it represent

toxic stratus
#

the characteristic polynomial is how you get the eigenvalues in the first place

#

but to find the eigenspace corresponding to an eigenvalue you solve (A - λΙ)v = 0

opaque sorrel
#

hm

#

so like

#

now ive found the matrix representing the cahracterstic aspdolymonaiamla

#

and RREFED it

#

so like

#

wait sorry but like

#

what does that matrix represent

toxic stratus
#

like

flat frigateBOT
toxic stratus
#

so then after you row reduce

opaque sorrel
#

oh wait

#

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

#

ill get the vectors

#

like the usual x y and z

flat frigateBOT
opaque sorrel
#

are v_1 v_2 v_3

#

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

wai

#

wait

flat frigateBOT
opaque sorrel
#

yes

#

so thats my

#

uh

#

my vector

#

like

#

Av = Ilambdav

#

that v

toxic stratus
#

yes that v

opaque sorrel
#

and i can scalarmultiply this v

#

to get big big vectors

toxic stratus
#

you have one pivot column

#

and the other 2 are free

opaque sorrel
#

so two arbtityrrary values

toxic stratus
#

so say you set $v_2 = s$, $v_3 = t$

flat frigateBOT
opaque sorrel
#

yes

toxic stratus
flat frigateBOT
toxic stratus
opaque sorrel
#

a okay

#

understand

#

wat is this ans

#

nani

#

sus

#

o wait

flat frigateBOT
opaque sorrel
#

then we jjust multiplied it by 2

toxic stratus
#

yeah

opaque sorrel
#

o

#

ok lemme do

opaque sorrel
#

thanks madam

lean otter
#

If I have $40 and it's 4cents per megabyte, how many gigabytes do I have? (im not dumb i just dont know how to solve it, im 13 dont judge plz)

stray bluff
#

how many megabytes in a gigabyte

lean otter
#

1000

foggy salmon
#

1024

lean otter
#

fuck

foggy salmon
#

hm

lean otter
#

maybe i am stupid

foggy salmon
#

na idk

thin crow
#

isnt it 1000?

lean otter
#

wait nvm its 1024

foggy salmon
#

yes

lean otter
#

its just most people like 1000

foggy salmon
#

LOL

stray bluff
#

my question was for the context of this problem is it 1000 or 1024

foggy salmon
#

yes

#

op shld ans

#

anw

thin crow
#

its 1024 in computer syste,

#

binary

stray bluff
#

does it specify @lean otter

thin crow
#

in reality its 1000

lean otter
#

just says 4c per mb

foggy salmon
#

D:

thin crow
lean otter
#

just go with 1k

thin crow
#

ur getting 1000

foggy salmon
#

is this a cs subj or math

thin crow
#

how much gigabytes is 1000 mb

#

just 1

stray bluff
#

ok so 1000 MB = 1GB

#

yes

lean otter
#

yes

thin crow
#

ye

#

40 / 0.04

#

0.04 because thats 4 cents

#

1 dollar = 100 cents

#

40 / 0.04 is 1000

#

thats 1000 megabytes

#

so 1 gb

lean otter
#

im getting 1gb?

thin crow
#

yea

lean otter
#

wtf

#

bruh

#

can someone check this

#

i dont think thats correct tbh

stray bluff
#

Whats so incorrect about it

thin crow
#

it is correct

stray bluff
#

yes

lean otter
#

ok ty

#

thats kinda aids

thin crow
#

??

lean otter
#

no i mean i thought it was more

#

like a lot more

thin crow
#

nah

#

u can just mental it

#

no paper

#

theres 1000 1 cents in 10 dollars

stray bluff
#

Is this like for a class or a real life thing?

lean otter
#

real life

thin crow
#

same thing with 4

stray bluff
#

why u paying 0.04 per MB

lean otter
#

its a starter kit simcard

#

i can go with this which expires in 1 year

#

or i can go with expire in 1 month but i get moer

thin crow
#

i need help w my shit tho

#

my brains not working atm

stray bluff
#

idk where u live but I pay like $0.001 / MB

lean otter
#

i live australia

stray bluff
#

🤷‍♂️

lean otter
#

wait lemme send an ss

#

which one u think is better

#

@stray bluff

stray bluff
#

urm idk this isnt really a math problem lol

lean otter
#

ik but 😃

thin crow
#

js go w the first one

lean otter
#

aight

#

ill just buy a new sim in a month

#

or maybe i can recharge or smth

#

ill have to read the tos

#

thanks guys

lean otter
#

Just wondering if I did this right T_T, I feel off with it but idk what

lean otter
#

Testing absolute convergence test for alternating series also

#

Where did the 1/n^2 come from to begin with?

#

Uhhhh I was trying to compare to a p series, that’s where I felt off tbh

#

Are you trying to use limit comparison with alternating series test?

#

Yus

#

You just need to do the alternating series and see if the sequence of that goes to 0

clear blade
lean otter
#

Yea that

#

Ohhh okay, this question was on an absolute convergence test handout with the possibility of using alternating series test

#

The alternating series test doesn't help to prove absolute convergence

clear blade
#

for absolute convergence, you need to test the series without the alternating part

lean otter
#

Ratio test is a good shot

#

Ohhh okay, I thought I did that by just taking 2n+9/n^3+1 and testing it with the limit comparison test mb

clear blade
#

i didn't realize you were testing absolute convergence using the limit comparison test

#

what do you mean "no info?"

lean otter
#

Well since my P was greater than 1, doesn’t that mean that my series diverges, and in the absolute convergence test, you don’t get any info from doing that, right?

clear blade
lean otter
#

So it converges then

clear blade
#

yes

lean otter
#

Okay I learned my mistake with the limit comparison test, thank you T_T

plucky elk

yes bot's down

#

$rip$

drowsy moss
#

take that skynet!

surreal sorrel
#

Thinking of using limits, but direct proof or contradiction seem simpler

#

(1) Nope. Doing direct proof. Choose k=1 assuming n > 1 thus n^2+2n+1 is O(n^2) because n^2+2n+1 <= 4n^2 whenever n > 1

surreal sorrel
#

Now it should be good. Does this satisfy the proof?

#

Ah bogus, the given constants do matter...

wicked jewel
safe radishBOT
wicked jewel
#

Hey I am having difficulties with solving this, I thought that I was on the right track but it seems I was wrong

#

Here's what I tried doing

quasi bison
#

this is not a geometric series...

wicked jewel
#

Oh I see that now, I've been thought that I should trat it as one

quasi bison
#

also are you sure you copied the original problem statement correctly? because as-is, taking the sum wrt n and then the limit wrt n doesn't make sense symbolically

wicked jewel
#

Find the sum of the row:

quasi bison
#

this is a long shot but do you happen to be Russian

wicked jewel
#

no

quasi bison
#

okay nevermind

wicked jewel
#

How did you deduct that?

quasi bison
#

it's just that in english the word for an infinite sum is "series"

#

but "row" is a common mistranslation of the Russian ряд

wicked jewel
#

My first language is not English and we study math in our language in uni

#

Sorry for any inconveniences that this may cause

quasi bison
#

anyway

lean otter
#

Oh what language? Just curious

#

If you prefer saying

quasi bison
#

so you need to find the sum of this series

wicked jewel
lean otter
#

Oh I see

wicked jewel
#

And the answer is what the limit of Sn is

#

However I am oblivious as to how I can do that

quasi bison
#

i'm not sure the partial sums have any nice expression here

#

worth a try though

#

hold on

#

,w partial fractions n/(n^2-4)^2

wicked jewel
#

We've been told to do it using partial sums so I believe that's the way to go

quasi bison
#

right, so it looks like you are in luck

lean otter
#

Do you just want to prove if it is convergent or find the sum?

#

I guess the latter

wicked jewel
#

what does convergent mean?

lean otter
#

Hm was gonna say the integral test may be handy here

quasi bison
#

$S_n = \sum_{k=3}^n \frac{k}{(k^2 -4)^2}$ and when you write this out using the partial fraction decomposition from WA you get a lot of stuff canceling out

lean otter
#

But

flat frigateBOT
lean otter
#

Oh yeah partial fractions, forgot those for a second

lean otter
wicked jewel
#

Like what are the steps

quasi bison
#

i have not taken any steps yet

wicked jewel
#

from where did u translate it?

quasi bison
#

only written out more explicitly the nth partial sum to not get caught up in symbol bullshit

quasi bison
wicked jewel
#

dope

quasi bison
#

some terminology is fairly similar between Bulgarian and Russian

wicked jewel
#

yeah that as well

#

but it's different in English, or it might not be but it's different and harder to grasp

quasi bison
#

anyway, WA says k/(k^2-4)^2 = 1/8 (1/(k-2)^2 - 1/(k+2)^2)

#

so when you write the sum of this for k from 3 to n, you get... i think four terms at the start and four at the end that don't cancel

#

but everything else annihilates

wicked jewel
lean otter
#

🔭?

wicked jewel
#

Because that's the part that I need to learn

quasi bison
#

it's called "partial fraction decomposition" in english

#

i can't find the Bulgarian term but it's probably something like частични дроби

wicked jewel
#

Okay, I found which methods we are supposed to do it with

#

I think we are supposed to use uhh

#

criteria of Gauss

lean otter
wicked jewel
#

I don't get why they are using Gauss's Law isn't it only for proving if it's convergant

quasi bison
#

yeah a criterion will only tell you whether a series converges or not

#

if that

wicked jewel
#

then idk why my colleagues solved it using Gauss' criterion

#

we have to find the sum not the type

You just sent.

Angles in opposing sides are equal.

#

Which means that the arc is also equal.

#

If they're equal, just solve $18x-2=16x+6$.

It's a theorem that stems from vertical angle propertoes

harsh pine
#

Let a,b in R and 0 < a <= b.

safe radishBOT
harsh pine
#

I need to prove this

#

But I can't get there

#

I tried the following

flat frigateBOT
#

madmike

harsh pine
#

I somehow need to simplify this to a <= b I think

keen comet
#

that looks like a wrong direction or goal to me

harsh pine
#

I also did this with others

#

This is the full exercise

#

^ need to prove this

keen comet
#

Can't comment about the other parts

keen comet
harsh pine
#

Okay

#

Do you have an idea?

keen comet
#

Go back to $2ab \leq a^2 + b^2$

flat frigateBOT
harsh pine
#

the sum is annoying

#

idk how to get rid of it

keen comet
#

Stare at it harder.

harsh pine
#

in my mind I tried dividing by 2 but that doesn't help

#

bringing something to another side doesn't seem to help

#

dividing by ab doesn't work because there's a sum on the other side

#

or maybe thinkies

keen comet
#

The issue is I see it instantly

#

Yet I can't tell you

harsh pine
#

is it really that obvious

keen comet
#

I'll only say that

#

In your working you want to write $ab \neq 0$ as justification

flat frigateBOT
keen comet
#

Graph it on desmos or something

#

maybe you'll see it

keen comet
harsh pine
#

<=> a != 0 and b != 0

#

??

#

I'm confused

median sphinx
#

cant u jut do 0 <= (a-b)^2

#

bcs that prove that the number in (a-b)^2 will always >= 0

#

0 \leq a^2 - 2ab + b^2$

#

$0 \leq a^2 - 2ab + b^2$

#

@harsh pine

#

oo nvm, i think it cant solve ur question

harsh pine
#

This can't be so hard

#

it's a beginner math course

#

I need a hint

#

If I arrive at ab != 0, why is the inequality proven?

#

because ab != 0 is true from the question assumptions?

#

but $2ab <= a^2 + b^2$ is true even for $a=0$ and $b=0$

flat frigateBOT
#

madmike

harsh pine
#

I don't understand

#

This doesn't seem correct

#

by the way I am stuck on a different exercise at exactly the same point

toxic stratus
#

bruh

#

just because your implications technically go both ways

#

doesnt mean you should write all of your working backwards

#

this is very bad writing

harsh pine
#

how do you start?

toxic stratus
#

you start from somewhere which is generally accepted to be true

#

and then you write your steps

#

and reach the conclusion

#

here you're assuming the conclusion

#

and arriving at wherever

#

but it doesnt matter where you arrive at because you already assumed the conclusion

harsh pine
#

lol I see

toxic stratus
#

its like saying assume 1 = 2 so blah blah blah so 1 = 2

harsh pine
#

so I start with a <= b

#

because that's the assumption from the exercise

#

and then try to arrive at this?

toxic stratus
#

derive the steps using whatever you need to

#

but dont write your proof backwards

harsh pine
#

okay thanks

#

I will try it the other way around

toxic stratus
#

now heres a hint for where you're stuck

#

try moving all the terms to one side

harsh pine
#

I am a bit confused because I have "nothing to work with" if I start with "a <= b"

#

$\Leftrightarrow 2ab \leq 2b^2$

flat frigateBOT
#

madmike

harsh pine
#

This is not the same as what I had up there with 2ab <= a^2 + b^2

toxic stratus
#

like

flat frigateBOT
harsh pine
#

this is what I did KEK

flat frigateBOT
harsh pine
#

ah

#

so you do start with the given term

toxic stratus
#

no this is a direct computation

#

you dont start by writing down the result

#

you start from somewhere wherever it may be and then arrive at the result through a sequence of logical steps

flat frigateBOT
harsh pine
#

is there a reason you use => instead of <=>?

#

should I favour => too?

#

because we only care about 1 direction?

toxic stratus
#

the implication goes both ways but you're only proving one direction

harsh pine
#

also I am not sure where you get the idea from to start with (1 - x)^2 >= 0

toxic stratus
#

you must be sure that the implication goes both ways before you write <=>

#

you start with (1 - x)^2 >= 0 after working it out

#

you write your rough working elsewhere

#

from which you will discover that is what you need

#

and then you rewrite your proof in the logical order

harsh pine
#

Could you tell me how you would start to prove this?

toxic stratus
#

think about the example i showed you

toxic stratus
# harsh pine

its remarkably similar to the step you're stuck on

flat frigateBOT
harsh pine
#

idk I just can't wrap my head around how to get to the desired result

#

wait that's wrong

#

what am I writing

#

🤔

#

but that's not the same as this

toxic stratus
#

how do you get (a + b)^2

harsh pine
#

(a+b)(a+b) ?

#

uh

toxic stratus
harsh pine
#

I need a 2ab in the numerator I think

#

so multiply with 2ab

#

maybe

toxic stratus
#

bot ded

#

uh

#

if you rewrite the inequality ab <= ((a + b)/2)^2 you get 4ab <= (a + b)^2

#

this is not what you have here

#

you need the 4ab

safe radishBOT
#

@harsh pine Has your question been resolved?

harsh pine
#

I don't understand

#

should I start with ((a + b)/2)^2?

Anybody there?

Don't ask if there's anybody to help, just post the question

keen pebble
#

Alright

#

So my task is to find out how high the water is after 10 minutes with the equation 16/1 t^2-5t+100= 50

#

The graph is like a parable

stray socket
#

Let t = 10

#

If t is the time in minutes after 0 minutes

keen pebble
#

Is that a thing i have to see in order to solve this one?

stray socket
#

No it legit like

#

Gives you what to plug in

#

"find how high the water is after 10 minutes"

keen pebble
#

So just put in 10 as t

stray socket
#

Yes

keen pebble
#

Wow

stray socket
#

The question literally spoonfeeds you how to solve it lol

#

#

Is there any way i can get a mathematic eye like that

stray bluff

stray socket
#

Practice

keen pebble
#

I do but i still dont have that tranlation in my head of what they want from me when they wrap these questions up like that

#

Like they want me to solve how much waters been drained after 10 minutes

#

Is it like the average rate of it draining away @stray socket

How is the answer D in this question? I understand that it needs to be divisible by 4 so the last two terms of each function should = 0. But why can’t It be C also.

final halo
#

C is a special case of D

#

C does not have to be true in general, the two x³ terms just have to cancel in the sum

If my divisor is 2x - 3, does the remainder theorem still work?

flat frigateBOT
lean otter
#

My remainder would be 51, however, if I were to be asked for what values of x will make the P(x) = R(x) how would I do that?

#

According the remainder theorem I would assume 3, but that does not work

lean thorn
#

and according to the remainder theorem:

#

which checks out

lean otter
#

Seems like I did my division wrong then

lean thorn
#

$\left(\frac{3}{2}\right) + 5\left(\frac{3}{2}}\right) + 3 $
$\\ = \left(\frac{9}{4}}\right) + \left(\frac{30}{4}}\right) + \left(\frac{12}{4}}\right)$
$\\ = \left(\frac{51}{4}}\right)$

If i have 3 4 5 triangle
its angle should be
PI/2 radians
right?

gilded vault
lean otter
#

im getting 0.9272952180016122

gilded vault
#

oh

lean otter
#

this is how im setting everything

#
    constructor(x: number, y: number) {
        this._x = x
        this._y = y
        this._angle = Math.atan2(y, x)
        this._magnitude = Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y)```
gilded vault
#

you are looking at the wrong angle is my guess

lean otter
gilded vault
#

your program is calculating the angle opposite the 3-side

#

so the angle formed by the 4 and the 5 side

lean otter
#

why is it doing that lol

gilded vault
lean otter
#

Sorry I only know sine and cosine lol

#

Copilot auto suggested atan2

gilded vault
lean otter
#

Wonder why copilot would get that wrong....

#

Maybe it's because the y axis in websites is upside down?

#

Would that make it the correct function?

#

If vertical space were flipped?

gilded vault
#

okay so here is the thing

#

you are given the legs of a right triangle in your program

#

you dont even need a trig funtion

#

the angle will always be 'right' in any vector the way you define it

lean otter
#

that won't be a right angle

gilded vault
gilded vault
#

okay so just make it clear about what you want your input to be and what you want your output to be

#

because that seems to be the big problem here

lean otter
#

so its a vector class

#

represented by X and Y

#

meant to embody an arrow in space

#

I dont know how to further articulate this lol

#

it's just a typical angle of a vector

#

It is not always going to be 90 degrees

#

The arrow might be facing 0 degree

gilded vault
#

oh then you calculated it correctly lol

#

it shouldn't be pi/2

lean otter
#

Oh I just confused which angle I was getting

#

The origin starts at the bottom left

#

that's what I want

gilded vault
#

yeah so that is correct according to your program

#

its not pi/2

static vale
#

Wait nvm I'm high idk what I am talking abt

formal zodiac
#

he can use any formula

#

use tan opposite over adjacent

#

tan inverse sorry

gilded vault
#

yeah whatever your expect was wrong your program was the correct value

formal zodiac

angle is 53.13

@lean otter

A student wants to determine the number of zeros for each of the given equations.

The equation x²+4x+3=0 has ? zeros.

The equation -x²+3x=0 has ? zeros

upbeat swan
#

just solve the equations

#

you could use the quadratic formula for the first one

quasi bison
#

the quadratic formula,

upbeat swan
#

oh yeah

#

sorry

quasi bison
#

and it is a little overkill here

#

though it's fine if you can't spot the factorization right away

upbeat swan
#

yeah

#

i dont think he knows to factorise

#

it's easier to use the formula

blazing valve
#

@quasi bison @upbeat swan can u help me

upbeat swan
#

i told you

#

quadratic formula

blazing valve
#

help me step by step plz.

#

i missed some classes and my teacher isnt here for a week

#

so i cant get help

#

@upbeat swan

upbeat swan
#

identify a,b and c

#

then plug them into the formula

blazing valve
upbeat swan
#

yes

#

now plug them in

blazing valve
#

ive never learned the formula

upbeat swan
#

then can you factor the equation?

blazing valve
#

uhh no. i basically missed since day 1 of class

blazing valve
upbeat swan
#

factoring is harder than using the formula

blazing valve
upbeat swan
#

watch this video

#

it's 5 min long

#

and it will teach you how to factor

blazing valve
#

@upbeat swan ok i factored it.

i got (x+3)(x+1)

upbeat swan
#

good

#

so we have (x+1)(x+3)=0

#

and we need to solve this

#

we have to think

#

a*b is 0

#

when

#

either a or b is 0

#

so we set each factor to be 0

#

(x+1)=0

#

(x+3)=0

#

solve these 2 equations and we're done

#

do you understand?

blazing valve
#

imma do it rn

blazing valve
upbeat swan
#

yes

#

yes

well how many zeros did you find

blazing valve

2?

upbeat swan
#

yes

blazing valve
#

how do i do -x^2+3x=0

upbeat swan
#

factor out an x

#

then set both factors equal to 0

#

i have to go

#

sry

#

ok i got it

can u check the answer first before u leave?

Assuming cos x is not zero, just divide by cos ² x and see if you can finish it

lean otter
#

I'm left with 2=3sinx%cosx

true crescent
#

what is sinx/cosx

lean otter
#

Tan

true crescent
#

there you are

lean otter
#

?

true crescent
#

you want to find the value of tan, don't you

lean otter
#

Yh

true crescent
#

after dividing by cos²x you get 2=3tanx

#

all that remains is to divide by 3!

lean otter
#

Thanks sir

true crescent
#

you're welcome

lean otter
#

Can I bring another one

#

.

true crescent
#

sure

lean otter
#

Ok

true crescent
#

cosec x =1/cos x so we get 1/cos x = 2

#

by multiplying and dividing we get ½=cos x

#

this should be easy now

lean otter
#

Isn't 1 on sin

true crescent
#

no, check your textbook

lean otter
true crescent
#

well, my bad!

#

it doesn't matter it's gonna be sin

lean otter
#

But my answer are not coming out like the one in the mcq

true crescent
#

½=sin x has the answer pi/6

lean otter
#

It's not there

true crescent
#

What other choices are there?

lean otter
#

5pi on 6
Pi on 3
Pi on 2
2pi on 3

true crescent
#

sin(5pi/6)=sin(pi-pi/6)=sin(pi/6)=¹

#

½

lean otter
#

Sir 😅😅

true crescent
#

ok ok, I'll try to explain

#

sin(-x)=-sin(x)

#

You know this right?

lean otter
#

Yez

true crescent
#

what about sin(pi+x)=-sin(x)?

lean otter
#

Nope

true crescent
#

well then do you know sin(x+y)=sin(x)cos(y)+sin(y)cos(x)

lean otter
#

Yes

true crescent
#

then just plug in pi and -x

#

sin(pi-x)=sin(pi)cos(-x)+sin(-x)cos(pi)

#

=0+-sin(x)(-1)

#

=sin(x)

lean otter
#

sinx yh

true crescent
#

no just sin(x)

#

without -

lean otter
#

OK

true crescent
#

once you get this sin(5pi/6) because easy

#

for 5pi/6 = pi-pi/6

#

so sin(5pi/6)=sin(pi-pi/6)=sin(pi/6)

#

#

using sin(pi-x)=sin(x)

lean otter
#

Okay

#

OK sir

true crescent
#

This is a bit more involved

#

you have to find cos theta using the identity sin²(theta)+cos²(theta)=1

#

Keeping in mind that cos theta is positive since theta is between 0 and pi/2

lean otter
#

Yh trig formula

true crescent
#

once you find that messy expression for cos theta, you can just expand sec theta + tan theta and simplify the mess

lean otter
#

😅
