Yah, tbh(not being elitist) but math olympiads in my country is not really the focus compared to country like china, us, etc, they basically just give like the simples of simple. So actually its not really part of some curriculums

dapper star
#

but I just got an idea

teal kite
#

Ohhh

dapper star
#

I will be back

teal kite
dapper star
#

so

#

this can maybe work?

#

wait

#

I will come back with solution

teal kite
#

No worries

dapper star
#

so I thought of

#

making three equations

#

with three variables

#

using pythagorean theorem

teal kite
#

Woah

dapper star
#

so Im getting IJ ~= 163 smth

#

163.7

#

so Put IJ as z
QJ as x and
KJ as y

#

and then

#

equations would be

#

(163+x)^2 = 156^2 + z^2

#

PIJ ^

#

260^2 = (163+x)^2 + y^2

#

PJK^

#

QJK :- 143^2 = x^2 + y^2

#

also I gotta sleep

#

@teal kite

#

you should ask for answers

teal kite
#

Are you southeast asian?

dapper star
#

yea

teal kite
#

Same

dapper star
#

India

teal kite
#

Oh

#

I'm much more earlier(PH)

#

It's 2 hereopencry

#

Okay, i'll just ask

#

THANKS THOUGH

#

Excuse me, how can I convert radians and degrees to points that perhaps may not be on a unit circle?

fathom adder
#

If you have rad you multiply by 180/pi to get degree

lunar prawn
#

ok

#

but how do i get the points then? like for example (1/square root 2)

fathom adder
#

But the may not be on a circle makes me doubt

lunar prawn
#

hmmm

#

what to do then?

fathom adder
lunar prawn
#

for example lets say (1/square root 2, - 2/3)

#

is it possible?

#

another question I had is that for each angle, lets say 135 degrees, why does it have the points of (- square root 2/2,square root 2/2 )? why not any other point?

#

sorry im new to radians, etc so I had trouble mainly with point and the standarm position etc

fathom adder
#

Ok ic do you know polar ?

#

Polar coordinates ?

fathom adder
#

For the one you cite its distance from the center = 1

#

You just need to change this distance

lunar prawn
#

hmmm

fathom adder
#

Ila show

fathom adder
lunar prawn
fathom adder
#

Cos (3pi/4)?

lunar prawn
lunar prawn
lunar prawn
fathom adder
lunar prawn
#

hmm

#

lets see

#

i dont know tbh

fathom adder
fathom adder
#

So r = sqrt(1/2 + 4/9) = sqrt(9/18 + 8/18) = sqrt (17/18)= sqrt(34)/6

lunar prawn
#

where did r = sqrt(1/2 + 4/9) come from though? I apologzie if my questions may appear a bit baisc and irritating

lunar prawn
fathom adder
#

It is pythagore in fact

lunar prawn
#

oh my

#

this will be helpful very much

fathom adder
#

Your question is all about this

lunar prawn
#

ah yes indeed

lunar prawn
fathom adder
#

Its squared

#

(2/3)^2 = 4/9

lunar prawn
#

oh true

#

but in that case

#

why wasnt 1/2 also squared? although the radical is no more, shouldnt the 2 be a 4?

fathom adder
#

So squared it gives 1/2

lunar prawn
#

ah i see

#

go on please

fathom adder
#

Then for the angles in rad you take arctan(y/x) the answer is not pretty but its how to it

lunar prawn
#

take your time

lunar prawn
#

so if I was give 11pi/4 for example, would I use cos or sin for it?

#

so cos(11pi/4)

lunar prawn
#

or sin(11pi/4) correct?

#

i see

#

then in what case would I use tangent?

fathom adder
#

In the case where you dont have the angle

lunar prawn
#

i understand

fathom adder
#

To find it

#

With x and y

lunar prawn
#

but if I were give a degree, would I also use sin or cos?

#

to find the points

fathom adder
#

Degrees are not used in trig, we use rad so ig convert into radians first

lunar prawn
#

and if I were given the points, would I use sin and cos also?

lunar prawn
fathom adder
lunar prawn
#

i see

lunar prawn
fathom adder
#

What you mean by use cos and sin ?

lunar prawn
#

would i do this: sin(point x, point y) and cos ""? just how i did to the radians?

fathom adder
#

Nah you have the point (1,1) u find that r = sqrt(2) so
1 = sqrt(2)*cos(theta)
1 = sqrt(2)*sin(theta)

lunar prawn
#

so in theta, do i write the points in its place??

fathom adder
#

You solve for theta and you have the angle

#

So theta = pi/4

fathom adder
lunar prawn
#

so for points (1,1) shown above, if the points were the 1/2,1/3, would I use 1/2 = sqrt(2)sin(theta) and 1/3 = sqrt(2)sin(theta)

#

?

fathom adder
fathom adder
#

All good ?

lunar prawn
#

all good!

#

thank you Yaku-senpai or should I say

fathom adder
#

Polar really interesting and im sure there is many video about this subject

fathom adder
lunar prawn
lunar prawn
#

thank you very much Mr. Yaku for all your help

#

have a nice day, evening, morning, or night in which is your case!

hardy vapor
#

Let f be a function from R->C of period 2pi, such that f can be integrated over [0,2pi].
We then define the complex Fourier coefficients as

hardy vapor
#

and the nth Fourier polynomial of f

#

then our lecture goes on to explain that we can express these as

#

which is supposedly always two sequences of real numbers for any of real-valued functions of the given properties

#

... why?

#

I mean I can see the right part there obviously is real, it's a pretty simple integral... but why does the equation c_k+c_{-k} = 1/pi integral... hold (or the one below? why is i(c_k-c_{-k})=... ?)

#

and why, for that matter, can I write the sum over c_ke_k (ie. the Fourier polynomial) in this form?

#

Also what does any of this even describe, considering that

flat frigateBOT
#

Bob Goldham

hardy vapor
#

is not guaranteed to exist

#

and if it exists, it does not necessarily approach f

#

so what are we even doing with any of this?

frank horizon
#

well essentially all of this is saying that periodic functions can be written as infinite sums of sins and cosins

hardy vapor
#

but we're not writing the function as a sum

#

because this doesn't even approach the original function in the first place, apparently

frank horizon
#

some functions don't have valid fourier decompositions

#

but other times, functions are uniformly approximated by their fourier expansions

hardy vapor
#

so this is basically fortune telling and hoping that you were right?

#

I can define a series expansion that's sometimes right. Why is this particular one any more useful?

frank horizon
#

no, there are conditions under which the fourier series converges uniformly, namely if f is continuous and the sum of fourier coefficients converges absolutely

#

you can think of the fourier expansion as another taylor expansion

hardy vapor
#

okay so if (|c_k|)_{k in N} converges and f is continuous then

hardy vapor
frank horizon
#

yeah

#

or rather the sum of the fourier coefficients i believe

#

so $\sum |c_k| < \infty$

flat frigateBOT
hardy vapor
#

is that the same as saying the series converges absolutely?

#

should be

#

okay I can see how that's useful

frank horizon
hardy vapor
frank horizon
#

well it's really just because $e^{i\theta}=\cos\theta + i\sin\theta$

flat frigateBOT
frank horizon
#

and a little algebra

hardy vapor
#

oh so we're just applying Eulers identity to the e^ikx part and then splitting it into two different factors in a way that has the construction working as we want it to? Makes sense

frank horizon
#

yeah in essence

hardy vapor
#

That leaves the question of why a_k and b_k are always real numbers for real-valued f specifically?

frank horizon
#

well $a_k = \frac{1}{\pi}\int^{2\pi}_0 f(x)\cos kx dx$ which is necessarily real

#

same for b_k

flat frigateBOT
frank horizon
#

there's a 1/pi there i forgot

hardy vapor
#

why can't this hold for f that have non-real values?

#

Or is it a case of "it can, but it won't always"?

hardy vapor
#

Alright... I think that answers my questions for now. Thanks for helping!

unkempt thicket
#

What did I do wrong?

safe radishBOT
inland flicker
#

is the purpose to show that the trig identity is true?

unkempt thicket
#

Yes

#

To prove it’s true

#

And CSC squared is equal to 1 over sin squared so I replaced these with the appropriate replacements

#

Yet one side of the equation is addition and the other is multiplication so it’s not true

inland flicker
#

if I recall, when I learned this, our teacher said that over time we will begin to recognize pathways to solving questions like these

#

with that being said, personally I would try to manipulate the left hand side of the equation

unkempt thicket
#

We just got a chart lol

inland flicker
#

not saying that starting with the right side is wrong, but I think it takes a much larger gap in understanding

#

I suggest trying to combine the fractions on the left side by giving them the same denominator

unkempt thicket
#

How’d you manipulate the left side? Wouldn’t that be the same? Just changing it to CSC squared plus SEC squared

unkempt thicket
inland flicker
#

come back if it doesnt immediately pop out at you

lime dust
safe radishBOT
#

@unkempt thicket Has your question been resolved?

unkempt thicket
#

Working on it lol

unkempt thicket
#

Do I just replace this entire thing by 1 over

inland flicker
#

Yes

flat frigateBOT
#

Savage_Cat

inland flicker
#

So uhhh

unkempt thicket
#

Now I’m stuck🤣

inland flicker
#

Yes

#

Precisely

#

Oh

#

Wait

inland flicker
#

These two are equivalent

unkempt thicket
#

Yes I replaced it with 1

#

That was the left side of the equation

inland flicker
#

Oh yes i see I was confused by which step followed which

#

I understand now

unkempt thicket
#

Sorry haha

#

Oo wait if I just flip the fraction won’t I get the reciprocal functions??

#

What’s L

inland flicker
#

Where tf did that L

unkempt thicket
#

🤣🤣

inland flicker
#

It’s supposed to be a multiplication sign

flat frigateBOT
#

Savage_Cat

unkempt thicket
#

Wait but can’t I just flip the fraction

inland flicker
#

You can, whichever you prefer

unkempt thicket
#

And flipping it would cause cos to become sec and sin to become csc right?

inland flicker
#

Yes

unkempt thicket
#

Let’s goo, thank you!

flat frigateBOT
#

Savage_Cat

inland flicker
#

As desired.

unkempt thicket
#

Why do you not get cos 1/2x when taking the square root?

lime dust
unkempt thicket
#

It’s not?? But the answer came out correct

lime dust
#

No

unkempt thicket
#

That’s how he taught us to do it lol

lime dust
#

It is |cosx|

unkempt thicket
#

Absolute value?

lime dust
#

Yes

#

Because it is squared

#

For example sqrt(x^2) = 1

#

You can say here that x can be 1 or -1 because

unkempt thicket
#

Ohh

#

He never told us that, he just said that they cancel each other out

#

And you are left with x

lime dust
#

Sqrt((1)^2) is 1 but sqrt((-1)^2) is also 1

#

Not true

#

There are two different things

unkempt thicket
#

Wait so that applies to functions as well?

lime dust
#

First

#

(Sqrt(x))^2

#

This is x

#

But

#

Sqrt(x^2) is |x|

#

You can see with numbers

#

(Sqrt(4))^2

#

This would be 2^2

#

But now lets say

#

Sqrt(2^2) or sqrt((-2)^2)

#

Both are 4

#

But in the first case u cant

#

(Sqrt(-4))^2

#

This would be (2i)^2

#

Which is -4

unkempt thicket
#

Ohhh I was gonna ask what if it’s a negative haha

#

So they do kinda cancel out no?

#

Technically it more in depth

#

But end result is the same

lime dust
#

So when u have

#

Sqrt(cos^2x)

#

The sqrt is outside and the squared inside

#

So that would be |cosx|

#

And from there u get two solutions

#

Cosx = sqrt3/2 and cosx = -sqrt3/2

unkempt thicket
#

Hmm.. he told us that this would be the case only if the x is squared

#

We have that as a separate topic

#

Quadradic function equations

lime dust
#

Cosine is a function applied to x

#

Cos(x)

#

Is something that depends on x

#

His value is a number

unkempt thicket
#

So wait why is the cos squared and not the x

lime dust
#

This is another way of writing it so u can see clearly

#

Cos^2(x) = (cosx)^2

unkempt thicket
#

So cos^2x=cosx^2

#

Oh nice haha

lime dust
#

But not the one u said

#

The one u said cos(x^2) is different

unkempt thicket
#

How so?

#

Wait so the exponent does apply to both??

lime dust
#

Ok so take cosine like the function ok?

#

We insert a number to that function

#

For example 0

#

Cos(0)

#

What is this?

unkempt thicket
#

0 I assume

#

Oh 1

#

Apparently

lime dust
#

Ok so

#

If we put another number

unkempt thicket
#

What does cos do

lime dust
#

We will get a different answer right?

unkempt thicket
#

Like what does the actual function do

#

Maybe that’ll help me understand

lime dust
#

So u have to have in mind that cos is a function where

#

If u insert a number

#

U get an outcome

unkempt thicket
#

But what’s the process from the input to the output?

lime dust
#

For 0 is 1 for others is a different outcome

unkempt thicket
#

Why does 0 become 1

lime dust
#

That you learnt for sure in trigonometry

#

Right?

unkempt thicket
#

Nope

lime dust
#

With triangles

unkempt thicket
#

Right side triangle?

#

Wait it has to do with the sides of the triangle?

#

How can a side even equal to 0 in the first place

#

Length can’t be 0

#

We only learned right side triangles idk about other ones

#

Leg leg and hyp

#

So opp adj and hyp

lime dust
#

Aha

#

And if angle is 0 grades

unkempt thicket
#

How does that make sense

lime dust
#

That would mean they are equal

unkempt thicket
#

An angle can be 0??

lime dust
#

It cannot in a triangle, you have to imagine how you make the angle

#

Smaller and smaller

#

And u will see how adjacent side

#

Is more and more equal to hypotenuse size

#

So when u reach 0

#

They are equal

unkempt thicket
#

So cos doesn’t only apply to right side triangle?

unkempt thicket
#

Why is it 1 then

lime dust
#

No

gritty kindle
lime dust
#

The sides have a length

unkempt thicket
#

So it can never be zero only approach it,

unkempt thicket
#

?

#

So how does the calculator not show an error message when you do cos(0)

lime dust
#

But lets focus first in our initial problem

unkempt thicket
#

If it can’t be that

#

My initial question btw was why do you take the square root of the cos but not of the x,
But this is interesting as well 🤣

lime dust
#

Ok so the thing is you have a function where u insert a value and this function gives you an answer

gritty kindle
lime dust
#

We called that function cosine

#

And we can input numbers there

#

When u write cos^2(x)

#

This means (cos(x))^2

#

You square the whole function

#

Not x

#

You square the output not the input

#

So when you square root that output, because it is squared, you get the absolute value

unkempt thicket
#

So technically you could ignore the square until you get the output and then square the output?

lime dust
#

So sqrt(cos^2(x)) = |cos(x)|

lime dust
#

Is like you say f(x) = x^2 and u ignore the ^2 until u input the x

unkempt thicket
#

Hmm.. so if I had cos^2(60) would that be 1/4

lime dust
#

Yes

#

Assuming 60 degrees

unkempt thicket
#

I see that’s way easier to look at it this way

#

Just taking the square afterwards

#

Instead of of the function itself

#

So that applies to square root as well?
You take that of the output?

lime dust
#

What would be cos^2(120)?

unkempt thicket
#

Also 1/4?

lime dust
#

Yes

unkempt thicket
#

I don’t like that🤣

lime dust
unkempt thicket
#

Wait so what does cos do to 120 to become 1/2

#

Is it division

#

Multiplication

#

Like what’s the process the calculator does

lime dust
#

No cos(120) is -1/2

unkempt thicket
#

Negative yes

#

My bad

lime dust
#

Anyways

#

I recommend you to study the definition of absolute value

#

The classic and the one i told u

unkempt thicket
#

We studied it but we only touched it when we did absolute value graphs

lime dust
#

About sqrt(x^2)

unkempt thicket
#

Y=|x|

unkempt thicket
lime dust
#

|x| and sqrt(x^2) is the same

unkempt thicket
#

If you get |x| afterwards how come
Y=|x|
And
Y=x^2
Don’t look the same

lime dust
#

I did not write that

unkempt thicket
#

Cuz you’d have the take the square root of x^2 giving you Y=|x|

#

So aren’t they supposed to look the same

lime dust
#

I think I didn’t follow your last question

unkempt thicket
#

The graphs of these two looks different

#

But when you solve the x squared one you said you get the absolute value of x

#

So how come the graphs look different if the answer is the same

lime dust
#

Not x^2

#

Sqrt(x^2)

#

,w plot sqrt(x^2)

lime dust
#

,w plot |x|

unkempt thicket
#

OHH!

lime dust
#

They are exactly the same

unkempt thicket
#

Okay my brain can relax now 🤣

#

Thank you!

# strong cosmos

if x is 1, is y 1? if x is 10, what is y, how did y get all the way up there

wait shouldnt n=0?

granite flower
#

Where Xmiddle here is just the values in the middle of the rectangles
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11

granite flower
crude peak
#

ah i see

crude peak
#

i drew the rectangles and all

#

my problem is im not sure how to find the area for each

#

i rememeber vaguly that Mid point was a lil different from left and right

#

bbut idk anything else from there

granite flower
#

The base of the rectangle times there heights.
The base of all rectangles are equal which is 12/6 = 2
The height of each rectangle is the value of the function from the place you choose the maximum height to be like right or middle or left

crude peak
#

okay so we do still do 2*f(x)?

granite flower
#

Choosing right means that you will start each rectangle from the right, like draw from 12 until it hit the curve then just complete the rectangle to 10, then start from 10 until hit the curve then complete to 2, etc until you complete to 0
The left is the opposite you start from the left of each rectangle, continue to get up until hitting the curve then completing the rectangle to the right

#

Middle is choosing to start at the middle of each rectangle until hitting the curve and completing each one to the right and left together

granite flower
crude peak
#

so like for the first sub interval's area it would be 2*f(1) and f(1) is around 8.9 or smtg so itd be 2x8.9 = 17.2

granite flower
#

Yeah

crude peak
#

alr alr ty

granite flower
#

The second one is 2*f(3) and so on

crude peak
#

ok ty for ur help!

granite flower
#

No problem

crude peak

have a good day/night

Prove that √2 is an irrational number.

safe radishBOT
tired kernel
#

how will we prove it???🤔

main mural
tired kernel
#

meaning??

main mural
#

suppose that it is a rational number, then do some steps to show that it leads to something absurd

#

which would mean that it cannot be a rational number => hence irrational

#

start by supposing that sqrt(2) is, rational, meaning:\
$\sqrt{2} = \frac{a}{b}, a,b\in \bZ$ and $\gcd(a,b)=1$

flat frigateBOT
#

artemetra

tired kernel
#

ok\

#

√2=a/b after that i did not understood

main mural
#

a and b are integers, and they don't share any factors

tired kernel
#

ok

#

only 1

#

is a factor

main mural
#

in other words a/b is in its simplest form: like 1/2, 5/6, but not 2/6, 5/20 etc.

main mural
tired kernel
#

ok

#

after that how will we prove it irrational

#

we will divide it but which till place then???

main mural
#

there's thousands of proofs of these online, i'll recommend you to read some of these first and come back if you have any questions

dusky tundra
#

ABCDEFG is a square number such that 8ABC = DEFG, find the square root of the number

dusky tundra
#

I'm so clueless, i'm thinking about starting to ABCDEFG as 1000000A + 100000B... etc but got nowhere

round shore
#

just a clarification, are ABC and DEFG also three-digit numbers and four-digit numbers respectively in the the 2nd equation?

dusky tundra
#

Yes

round shore
#

and is it 8*ABC or 8000+ABC?

dusky tundra
#

8*(digit ABC)

desert swallow
#

ABCDEFG = 10000(ABC) + DEFG might be a good place to start idk

dusky tundra
#

I did try that but got nothing

main mural
#

10000ABC = 8ABC*1250 = DEFG*1250

#

so ABCDEFG = DEFG*1251

#

,w factor 1251

main mural
#

awesome

#

this means that DEFG must be of the form 139*N^2 where N is some other integer

#

@dusky tundra are you following this?

dusky tundra
#

Ohhhhhhh

desert swallow
#

ABC is also of the form 279 x M, M is a square number

#

Wait no yes

main mural
#

i think you can further narrow it but yeah this is the gist

#

yeah you can because DEFG must be divisible by 8

dusky tundra
#

Okay, how do you continue?

main mural
#

so $N \in {4, 8}$

flat frigateBOT
#

artemetra

main mural
#

and N can't be 8 because

#

,calc (139*8^2)/8

flat frigateBOT
#

Result:

1112
main mural
#

that's 4 digits, not 3

#

so N=4

#

hence ABCDEFG = 3^2 * 139^2 * 4^2, and the square root is 3*139*4

#

,calc 31394

flat frigateBOT
#

Result:

1668
main mural
#

that's the answer

#

@dusky tundra ta-da

dusky tundra
#

OHHHHHH

#

That's make a whole lot of sense

#

Thank you!!

no problem!

why are you talking about e here at all

you are given lambda^t

because N = lamda ^ t

i don't know where to approach this from?
i was instructed not to use derivatives and only trigonometry rules

obsidian oracle
#

you can technically write the thing inside the limit as a function that depends on only one trig function

#

like only sin(2x) for example

#

then you can just call y that trig function

and do limit as y->0 of ...

halcyon kindle
#

Hi

safe radishBOT
halcyon kindle
#

I'm a bit confused on what to do

#

it's incredibly easy but I just want to make sure I do this correctly

#

for 2. it'll be 600 + 2x

#

I believe?

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

oh wait you added a 3

#

but is that simplified

tiny canyon
#

Which is the answer for question 1

#

Now there are 3 days

halcyon kindle
#

I see

#

is it fine if I keep this open for longer

#

I might have more questions

tiny canyon
#

Sure but don't keep it too long, tho 😂

halcyon kindle
#

so for 2

#

would the answers be 3 and 600

#

or do I have to do like 3x or something since its asking for variables

halcyon kindle
tiny canyon
# halcyon kindle ?

I think it is asking you to define the variables that will be used for question 3

halcyon kindle
tiny canyon
#

You can choose some arbitrary character for that

halcyon kindle
#

so like

tiny canyon
#

For example for your "number of nights stayed", you can choose x

halcyon kindle
#

oh

#

ic

#

so I can make it

#

x and f

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

and for 3. cant I just do 600y + 2x

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

this

#

for 3. I did

#

600y + 3x

tiny canyon
#

And 3(200 + 2x) = 600 + 6x

halcyon kindle
#

is that my equation?

#

so why would it be 6x

#

if they only stayed 3 nights

tiny canyon
#

Wait

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

at the top

#

i think I cropped it out when I posted it

#

but they're staying for 3 days

tiny canyon
#

Ok, there are a lot of issues here. I thought we were still using the same problems as the above

halcyon kindle
#

nope

#

if I should change anything from my asnwers let me know

#

thats my current asnwers

#

answers

tiny canyon
#

Nope

#

Because x is the number of nights. And the hotel will charge 200$ each day

#

So total cost must be 200x

#

Where does 600 even come from

halcyon kindle
#

i put my total cost variable as y

halcyon kindle
#

its 600

tiny canyon
# halcyon kindle its 600

They are asking you to write an equation that represents the total cost to the number of nights stayed

#

That means when x = 3 (3 nights stayed), your total cost must be 600

halcyon kindle
#

oh i see

tiny canyon
#

So if y is the total cost you will have the equation y = 200x that represents the total cost to the number of nights stayed if the hotel charge you 200$ each day

halcyon kindle
#

then for this I follow the y = mx + b

#

format

#

right

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

y = 200x + b

#

thats the slope

#

just double checking

tiny canyon
#

The slope is just a number in this case

#

Do you know which number represents the slope in this case, tho?

tiny canyon
#

For this we can assure b = 0 so the equation is y = 200x + 0

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

I was thinking of something else

#

nvm

halcyon kindle
#

not 3

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

m is the slope

#

y is the y intercept

#

b is the intercept

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

oh so question 4 is m = 200

tiny canyon
#

It is just 200 to be precise

halcyon kindle
#

and what does the slope represent

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

kind of

#

im just figuring this out for this

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

ill try and figure it out tho

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

oh I was thinking nights

halcyon kindle
#

this is the final part

tiny canyon
halcyon kindle
#

i dont think you can help with this

#

since I have to go onto websites

tiny canyon
#

Ok, so they are asking you to use real data 😂

halcyon kindle
#

found this hotel for 213

#

213 x 3 = 639

#

average price

#

i think

tiny canyon
#

You can do this yourself in this problem. It is just some addition and subtraction

Theres nothing in the language basically

hard crest
scarlet comet
#

But thennn

#

Te empty string is also nothing

#

no

#

""

hard crest

{e} is not the same thing as {}

#

remember how on the last problem you talked about the language {e, cat, catcat, catcatcat, ...}

scarlet comet
#

oh true

#

i was mixing it up since an empty string could technically be like those blank characters so if its in the brakets it would look like the empty set {}

#

so then its false?

hard crest
#

so "E prints e" is saying that e is an element of L(E) right?

@celest musk Has your question been resolved?

celest musk
#

apparently its wrong tho

#

sorry for taking a while to respond

marsh jungle
#

What's the right one?

celest musk
#

i dont know

#

ive inputted two solutions

#

neither have been right

marsh jungle
#

Idk but my ans is 2.5 & 2.5 🥹

sure

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

marsh jungle
#

Wait ig it was right I'll resend 😂

celest musk
#

nope

#

nah it doesnt work

fringe ingot
celest musk
#

idk

marsh jungle
#

It doesn’t? Check my soln once to see what’s wrong

celest musk
#

im just inputting random numbers at this point

#

im actually confused as shit

marsh jungle
#

Just check it

#

Once

celest musk
#

ok

#

its saying no

Your assignment can be solved in many ways

#

and the way I do it is to find the two sides of a right triangle by applying knowledge of quadratic equations

celest musk
#

ok

#

im just trying to find a method that works for me right now

can you turn $y=sin(x)$ into $2\pi n \pm arcsin(y) = x$?

x1 = 0
x2 = x3
x3 = x3 (unbound)

If i have these 3 solutions to a linear system of equations how do i turn them into a "basis solution" and a "general solution"

marsh jungle
#

You write it in the form of vectors. Here it'll be x3(0,1,1)

opal oar
#

and why x3 and not x2 or x1

marsh jungle
#

It'll be basis too. For basis the criteria is that the vectors must be linearly independent. And since here there is only 1 vector, it is ofc independent

opal oar
#

so the answer is

x3[0]
  [1]
  [1]``` because x3 is the only unbound?

No just x3

Doing question 13

#

So I thought I got the proof

#

But I didn’t actually get DM and CK in terms of AD and BC

#

But I did get DM = DK/2, CN = CK/2

#

but not sure how to convert that into AD and BC
