2sinθ=4cosθ
sinθ=2cosθ
sinθ/cosθ=2
sinθ/cosθ=tanθ
so
tanθ=2
is it correct till here?
ok chill
oh so i cant assume theta is same for like rest of them?
like tanθ , and sinθ both could have different values ?
state what is your question
No
ye?
Theta stay the same
ye so whats the prob
you opened the channel without any question
ok lemme write it
like what is your goal
He did
Find theta that satified 2 sinθ-4cosθ=0
@languid surge Just find theta now
And u're done
there is no mention of whether to solve for theta or a simplification
why....
tan(theta) = 0 is the simpliest form already
i needed value of secθ
well, in this case, YES
ok thx
theta, x, y, z, they're just variable
how did u found this btw?
this is a standard property
But usually, variable in trigonometric, we use theta
and can be proved
ohk
is there anyway that it could be done without it?
cuz i was told i should be supposed to be able to do it without needing anythign other than these
sin2 a + cos2 a = 1
1+tan2 a = sec2 a
cosec2 a = 1 + cot2 a
MY GUY
the second formula is the one
I just wrote
wait
oh right
im just gonna sleep then
since my brain is dead
i cant do anything either way in this condition
thx a lot
bye have a great day
sure have some sleep

I'm practicing for a competition and idk if this is right. i will send what i have done so far.
The interior angle at vertex C of right-angled triangle ABC is right, and also angle BAC = 2• angle CBA. The length of side AC is 8 cm. Point M is the bisector of AB, point N is the bisector of BC, point P is the bisector of the distance BM. Calculate the length of the fraction ACMNPB. Intermediate steps should be justified without measurement.
i saw that CM = AM
and PM = 1/4 AB
and i think that MN = NP = PB?
i this case the ACMNPB = AB + 5/4•AB
also in the image on the right it says that i said that its 20, but then irealised it was 28cm
NM is 4cm
i now realised
uhhhh
8 + 8 + 4 + 4 + (16-8-4) = 28
could you show ur solution
like if you have a rectangle
I feel like you went through something complicated when there's an easier concept
e is the diagonal of A and C
what if
30 60 90 triangle
angle in C = 90°
angle in A =60°
angle in B =30°
yes!
yes, and there's a thing about that
but i turned it sideways
i asked chatgpt and it used tans/cons?
but we didnt learn them yet
I think you should learn it for the contest
also, never ask chat GPT to solve math problems
um
not to be a party pooper but
similar triangle properties ._.
wym?
a line parallel to the base of the triangle and intersects the midpoint of the hypotenuse has exactly half the length of the base
and then from there just use 30 60 90 triangle
this?
i forgot one line at the bottom
so 8cm + 5/4•16cm=28cm
how should i get x√3 in this case?

$3^{x^2-9}+(x^2-9)5^{x+1}<1$
ngDe
does this require lambert W? would appreciate for a cleaner approach
A very clean approach is just notice how inequality is when x^2 > 9, < 9 and = 9
Like the terms individually.
hm
when x^2 > 9 then lhs always >0?
wait
yeah it would always be > 0
as when < 9, it would be < 0?
so when x^2>9 lhs would always > 1
now as for x^2<9
the first term would be > 0 and < 1
the second term would be < 0
so this would always be < 1
same with x^2-9 = 0
so essentially this problem can be reduced to
$x^2-9<0$
is my logic sound so far?
How'd you get =
ngDe
Now you're right.

How do you solve this?
9. Ignoring air resistance, if an object is dropped from an initial height h, then its height above ground level at instant t > 0 is given by (photo)
where g is the acceleration of gravity.
a) At what instant does the object hit the ground?
b) If h = 500 ft, compare the impact instants for the Earth (g = 9.8 m/s2 ), Mars (g = 3.7 m/s2), the Moon (g = 1.6 m/s2), and Jupiter (g 24.8 m/s2).
c) Find the formula for the instantaneous velocity y at the general instant t.
d) Use the instants found in b) and the formula found in c) to calculate the corresponding impact velocities for the Earth, Mars, Moon and Jupiter.
The instant it hits the ground is the t such that s(t)=0
but t can't be 0 so you have to use limits, how do you write it?
just lim t -> 0 (s(t))?
At t=0, s = h
No limits required here...
At t=???? , s=0. Rearrange algebraically to solve for t
I guess you could do that but that equation only works when t > 0
so you can't replace it
so you don't have to use limits at all?
because that is work for calculus I
we're studying limits
They're calculus coming up, but not in the first part
Here's why they have to specify t>0. When you take the square root, the answer could be positive or negativ time. They're saying forget about negative time
Plug and chug with alternative values of g
okay, thank you so much
Calculus is in part c
That requires taking the derivativ.e. THe derivative is a limit.

Is anyone willing to just double check my answers for this? I'm on vacation so can't contact teacher and there aren't any solutions
thx, I'm taking a pic of my working out rn
Here it is:
if anything is unclear feel free to ask me
why did you multiply in question 6
I'm assuming the product principle applies, so it's 3 AND 2 AND 4 meaning 3*2*4
what wouldve been the correct way of doing it?
yeah but wouldn't there be more than 10 combinations?
because you can have:
hard drive 1, processor 1, graphics 1
hard drive 1, processor 1, graphics 2
hard drive 1, processor 2, graphics 2
hard drive 1, processor 1, graphics 3
hard drive 1, processor 2, graphics 3
hard drive 1, processor 3, graphics 2
hard drive 1, processor 3, graphics 1
I mean that's already 7
and only for the first hard drive
it sayd 3 types of hard drives
yeah
there aren't
ohh nvm
but here there are 7 combinations with just hard drive 1
youre talking about combinations
did u misread the question?
misread what you were doing mostly
alright alright
question says there are 3 HDs, 2 processors & 4 graphics cards
so yeah its 24
Alright cool, do you want me to repost the images so you don't have to keep scrolling?
cool same
ok
for number 7, the question asks how many choices for you to choose your meal, it means overall right, not like the main meal
@broken thistle
uuh
lemme see
I think when it says "how many different choices are there available for you to choose your meal from" it's talking about the whole thing
so how many choices of starter/mainmenu/drink/dessert

for eleven
my logic was:
26 letters in the alphabet, there can be repeats
so each 'letter' slot has 26 possibilities
hmm alright
since there's 3 then that's 26^3
for the digits, there's 10 digits (0 through 9)
so add 26^3 with 10^5
although it might be multiply instead of add
I'm not sure
but whyd you put 10 if theres 9 possibilities
10^5 mb
alright thank you!!!
ahaha nah dw, if we both got the same answers it should be good 👍
It's not graded anyways
just work I'm doing to catch up on stuff
I mean I might 👀
youll be like "DamN hEr"
exactly 😂

oh ok you're trolling me, wow :(
mb
Leia would never say that to vader 
She would only say that to her lover Luke ofc

and Leia is luke's twin
eh, idk, maybe
and Leia says that to Han Solo wtffff
just rememberd
wha- whaat njvz
han solo is NOT darth vader
you would be dead rn if I was star wars geek
I am mildly offended that you refer to these characters so lightly 😔
hehehe
what movies do you watch anyways? Twilight 🙄?
nice
and i cant find the movies anywhere anyway
books are fine, haven't read them but if its a book

My issue is with the last step of the proof. (first answer).
We have N(A) = N(A^T * A). The rank nullity theorem says that
rank A + dim(N(A)) = m and
rank A^T A + dim(N(A^T A)) = n
I don't see how we get rank A = rank A^T A

Hi! I'm confused regarding how to place boundaries for these guys. Pretty sure i did this wrong
I'm thinking the boundaries for blue sound be 0 -> pi/2 and for red 0 -> pi
and i think i should then subtract the integrals

How many 3 digit odd numbers greater than 600 can be formed using the digits 2 3 4 5 6 and 7
the answer is 20 but I keep getting 36 idk what I’m doing wrong
how are you counting
it's kind of weird in that the best way to count is to do 600 and 700 separately, and fill the ones digit before the tens digit
Wdym
I’m doing 2 x 6 x 3
Since there’s only two possibilities for the first digit then 6 for the middle and 3 for the last
However it’s not 36 it’s 20 so idk what’s wrong with that
the cases are different since 6 and 7 have different parities
there are a different number of possibilities for the last digit depending on whether you start with 6 or 7
starting with 7, you have one less option for the units digit
in other words, if you start with a 6 you can end in 3 choices, but if you start wiht a 7 you have 2
So then how would I approach this
consider the two cases serparately
So would I
Do this
1 possibility for first digit (only can be 6) 4 for second (1 number used) and 3 for third (7 3 and 5 available) + 1 possibility for first (only can be 7) 4 for second (1 number used) 2 for last ( 3 and 5 only)
To get 20
12 + 8

Looking at this image it demonstrates how translational a_A and the tangential acceleration component perfectly cancel (at point C), leaving only the normal component of acceleration.
However this seems odd to me, because the translational a_A doesn't change with the radius of the circle, however the tangential component does, as its magnitude should increase with the radius.
Anyone able to explain?
you're asking why the linear speed and the rotational speed cancel to 0 even though rotational depends on the radius?
it comes from the translational velocity coming from the rolling of the bottom point, which is a radius away
assuming no slip and whatever
yeah, and apologies im taking dynamics.
oops just unfked my self there
Plurmorant you mind looking at my current HW question that im studying?
go for it
no slip means that the point of contact copies the floor (in the opposite direction I guess)
so like since the conveyor is rolling at a constant speed the disc has to rotate at a constant speed
really? even though Point A is decelerating?
honestly any chance your down to voice chat? I Can't type out my confusion clearly enough.
yea that's kind of confusing me too, but you can always think of rolling and translational dynamics separately
sure I won't talk though
alroit thats better than nothing.

if you use 1/2bh and distance between two points formula
you end up with two unknowns
still x and y where (x, y) is the missing coord
ok i did it, but i think i did it in a non-simplistic way
i can show u, but idk if id call it efficient
would like to see it
ok, so we know:
0.5bh = 3
thus bh = 6
and using pythagoras, we know b^2 + h^2 = 5
(i got the sqrt(5) to be the length of the hypotenuse using distance formula)
are u still following?
yes
so now solve for b and h
Stephen
lmk what u get
sure
i dont get real solutions
show me how u did it
and then i used quartic solver on calculator
Stephen
wwait my starting question might have been a big vague
or there may be an easier way to approach this
yea i have a feeling
one second]
so area of ABO = 1/2(2)(6) = 6
so ACD is half area which is 3
I have the coordinates of D, A, and not C.
HOWEVER, I know that it is a right angled triangle and i know two of the coordinates
do ya follow? @obtuse plover
how do u know DCA is a right triangle?
it looks like a right angle, but idk if its safe to assume that
so now we are left with|:
- area of triangle
- two coords
- need to find the last coord
nah its not safe to assume because we dont know the value for m
if the products of the gradients were -1 then we could be safe
but we dont know m
but we cant use the right angle formula
$\sqrt {(y - 1)^2 + x^2} = b \newline \sqrt {(x - 2)^2 + y^2} = h \newline (x,y)$ is the missing point of the triangle
Stephen
could we do something with this
that nasty thing
yea i think we can add it to our equations lol
but i think, as bananahead said, itll be nasty
ig we can try
yea we're defo overlooking smth super simple
Maybe doing something with it in relation to the large triangle?
i dont think it is
yeah but looking at it like that complicates things
this is driving me nuts
we know AB is sqrt(40)
think about how we can find a coordinate in the first place
usually a solution to an equation of two lines which have been intersected
in this case y=mx+1 and y=-3x+6
so we should find m
maybe find the angles and work backwards from that?
arctan(3) - [arctan(0.5)] is angle DAC
wait have you noticed something
OAB area is 6
we are told ACD is half of that which is 3
but then OAD area is 1
that doesnt add up
1 + 3 is not 6
OAD is 1?
1/2(2)(1)
this is painful
im starting to think only some weird rule or theorem can get you to the answer
you could try to find the boundaries and integrate to get the area. Might be pretty awful though
well if the areas dont add up, how can we even consider proceeding? isnt it a flawed question?
nah its not flawed
i might have made an incorrect assumption in my working
man
i think i have to leave this
this is unsolved, if anyone can help, please do!
nvm it was a wrong observation
@civic topaz Has your question been resolved?
@civic topaz Has your question been resolved?
i think this might work
get x = ... from -3x + 6 = mx + 1
then we know DBC + AOD = 3
AOD = 1
DBC = 1/2 * 5 * x
youll get m from that
@civic topaz howd u get DBC?
yes
oh ok so 2.5x = DBC therefore 2.5x = 2, x = 4/5, thus C is (0.8, y)?
is that what ur saying?
i worked this out
it doesnt seem right does it
0.8
is closer to 2
i mean when you look at the diagram
angle DAC is 45 btw

Hi! A quick question: to define the domain of a function I only want to know if these two ways are the same --> lR \ {x > -3, x < -2 } and (∞, -3] U [-2, ∞)
Are the same? Thanks!
Man that first one
That is some abuse of notation for real
{x> -3, x<-2} is a set containing elements which are subsets of ℝ
There is no intersection between this and ℝ
oh
In my school we use that to express the domain
Maybe it has so much notation, but express the same than the second one?
assuming the notation in the first one just means $\mathbb R \setminus (-3, -2)$ then yes, they are the same
Bungo
tbf this kind of shorthand shows up a lot in measure theory

the second is more clear

It looks like they were just lazy
would be better to write ${x \in \mathbb R : x > -3, x < -2}$

why does this series need to have p>0 for it to converge
if an = 3/2(1/n)^p then wouldn't it go to zero if we just increased n anyway
ok think from a logical standpoint
if we take p < 0
its gonna be 3/2 (-1)^n-1 n^p
thats obviously going to diverge
exactly it would converge if this was the case
but if p<0
then it would be (n^p)

right angled paralelogram's dimensions are x 2x and 3x and volume = 16 what is the area of that paralelogram?
x * 2x * 3x = 16 => x = 2/3powersqrt(3)
but when I checked it on math calculator

In Halmos ("Finite Vector Spaces"), he provides a (weird) proof of the fact that any subspace $M$ of a space $E$ of dimension $n$ has a dimension $\leq n$. He starts with :
"it is possible to give a deceptively short proof of this theorem that runs as follows. Every set of $n+1$ vectors in $E$ is linearly dependent, hence the same is true of $M$ ; hence, in particular, the number of elements in each basis of $M$ is $\leq n$."
He then proceeds with a second part of the proof :
"the trouble with this argument is that we defined dimension $n$ by requiring in the first place that there exist a finite basis, and then demanding that this basis contain exactly $n$ elements. The proof above shows only that no basis can contain more than $n$ elements; it does not show that any basis exists."
What exactly is he talking about ?
From my understanding he takes a basis of the subspace $M$ and then notice it is linearly independent in $E$ as well. So he concludes that the cardinal of this basis is $\leq n$. This, I have understand.
Then, my further understanding (of the second part) is that, while we know the existence of a basis for $E$, we are not ensured that $M$ has a basis.
Is my interpretation correct ?
I haven't included the "solution" he further gives to the "problem", I'll probably post it in a separate question.
Thanks in advance!

Need help with questions 3 and 4 I dont even know where to start

all you need to do is find the term that they all have in common in this case
but it has variables and exponents
try splitting them into their components

how many unique combinations i can get for each step here, before it all converge to 1 combination of 6 elements?
i would like to find a formula for this, but i can't find it nowhere
order doesnt matter
This formula?
that would be it if i didn't allow for elements to combine with themselfs
as you can see, the second step is 21, not 15
but it would be 15 if elements couldnt combine with themselfs
this I believe
it works for the first, but it doesnt eventually converts to 1 option at step 6
what do you mean?
basically, each step asks how many combinations of X elements that don't repeat their members besides equal elements can be formed.
if i have 6 elements, at groups of 1, it's 6
if i have 6 elements, at groups of 2, it's 21
if i have 6 elements, at groups of 6, it's 1
i want to find the steps in the middle
it can’t be 21. I’m looking at your diagram and it’s clear that there are repeats
i hope this makes it more clear
if you are looking for how many where there are NO repeats, then you don’t want replacement
same elements can repeat, its just order that doesnt matter
draw out what you think 6 looks like. There are more than 1
oh yeah i see what you mean now. sorry for the flaw on the question
no worries
let me check if the formula works for this right now that i realized i was thinking of the wrong result

solve in /R f(x) =< 0
f(x) = x^2 - 8x + 15
f(x) = (x-3)(x-5)
have you done anything after that?
like what
(x-3) and (x-5)
method 1: the graph/wavy method
do a rough sketch of y = (x-3)(x-5)
all you need the care about is the x-axis / intercepts and concavity
from there it should be clear where the function is greater than, less than or equal to 0
i use the
x-3 = 0
x-5 = 0
method
method 2: do sign analysis
identify the zeros
consider that happens (what is the sign of f(x)) between/before/after those values
if you have a method, try applying it
I have outlined two methods above

@undone python Has your question been resolved?
@undone python Has your question been resolved?
I would solve each equation for u & v respectively then take the partials
but both u and v exist for both equations
do i just take the other as constant when doing one of them?
wait maybe i kinda get what you mean
so i express the first and second in terms of u
take partial
do the same for v
and this will cause both du/dx and dv/dx to popup for both equations
at which point its a linear question?
or maybe i can just take partial directly

Yeah expressing then as a set of linear equations might be the play
I’d need to think about it
ill try
yeb
got it to work the linear way
since values for xyuv are given as 1
i forgot abt it lol

it would make more sense if it were z should not be 0, becuase ln(0) is undefined (and the equality would only make sense as a limit)

It was any arbitrary complex number
^ this is the image
That would be obvious
But my prof wrote 1 there for some reason I guess
I can't figure that out
It's something related to this proof also
Cuz here I can only write x+iy≠ x+i(y+2npi)
Which is a very vague thing to say imo
They are both arguments of z

@quartz kernel It's almost certainly an error in your notes, there is nothing particularly special about z = 1 in this case.

meanwhile, can I ask another question here?

It is suggested that you limit yourself to one question per help channel, opening a new one once your original question is answered and your original channel has been closed. This is to make your channel easier to follow for potential helpers and can bring attention to the fact that your question has changed.
you may ping me when you reopen the question, and I will assist if I am able.

But since it has v=2 at its natural length
Doesn't it go upwards as its speed decreases
So doesn't the string then compress making it have epe again?

I have still not understood apparently
instead of dividing both sides by -cos(x), bring the terms to one side, and factor out a cos(x)
this way, you dont lose solutions
ah so the division is what's screwing me over then
so get cos(x)* ( 2sinx + 1) = 0
and then one solution is when cos(x) is 0 and the other is when 2sin(x)+1 is 0?

i am trying to prove 1 is a limit point of ${\cos\left(k+\frac{1}{2}\right) : k \in\bZ,k\neq 0}$. (and quick disclaimer, i do not know that this is true but cmon it's gotta be). so my thot was we want to show that elements of ${k+\frac{1}{2}:k\in\bZ,k\neq 0}$ can be arbitrarily close to integer multiples of $2\pi$ and then since $\lim_{x\to 0}\cos(x) = 1$ and $\cos$ is $2\pi$ periodic we are done. i.e. what we want is that for any $\varepsilon>0$, there are $k,n\in\bZ$ such that $|k+1/2 - 2\pi n| <\varepsilon$. or instead, something like $|2k+1 - 4\pi n| <\varepsilon$. the point of that is to make it more amenable to my next idea, which is to use dirichlet's theorem: for any $\varepsilon \in (0,1]$, there exist $p,q\in\bZ$ such that $|p(4\pi)-q| < \varepsilon$. but see the trouble here is i do not know if there are frequent odd $q$'s. i also thought to interpret distance between $k+1/2$ and $2\pi n$ as distance between $k$ and $2\pi n-1/2$ instead but the $1/2$ was still giving me trouble
hmm i should change some letters
i havent read your argument but the claim is definitely true
slayla
in fact the sequence $\left{e^{ik}\right}$ is dense on the unit circle in $\mathbb C$, and even stronger than that, it's equidistributed on the unit circle
Bungo
i'll read your shenanigans now
shenanigans™️
the trademark slayla shenanigans
a nice result is that integer multiples of irrational numbers mod 1 are dense in [0,1], using the pigeonhole principle on the intervals $(0, 1/n), [1/n, 2/n),... [n-1/n)$ for $n$ sufficiently large, and using the fact that if two values $k_1\alpha$ and $k_2\alpha$ mod $1$ (for $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}\setminus\mathbb{Q}$ and $k_1 \neq k_2$) are in the same interval, you get that $|k_1-k_2|\alpha \in (0,1/n)$, and after that it is not hard to obtain one in every interval. Apply this to $2\pi$, you know that for any $\varepsilon > 0$ then you get for some $k$ that $2k\pi (\text{ mod } 1) - 1/2 < \varepsilon$
oh my god tex 
i think this works
smay
edit for readability
also, all of the intervals here are open intervals
(0,1/n), (1/n, 2/n), etc.
since if k alpha = i/n then alpha was already rational
idk if this is actually what you're looking for actually, i didn't read the second half of your solution carefully
hmm yes ok that works
okay great
well i mean it's taking a step back from what i had and giving a different solution but yea it works lol
the 2kpi (mod 1) points cluster around 1/2 because dense in [0,1]
fair enough
thx 
melodycreepysmile
i'll leave it open for a bit in case anyone has a way to finish what i started
fuck i love the word cluster so much
Welp typical analysis problem
Halving this and taking care of 1/2 seems the best imo
Can always approximate any number with "pa - q" where a is irrational

Could someone help me find the derivative of this function? I’m stuck on how to start
quotient rule, chain rule for both the numerator and denominator.
Yeah i tried doing that but i just got confused because it looks so long
it will
I mean, its a long question. You just have to power through it
until you get used to it.
I got this
It might help to list out u, u', v, and v' individually before trying to combine everything
I need to get this done quickly 😭
the denom is (t+3)^(1/2), not (t+3)^(-1/2)
Wait which one?
the last term of the numerator
