gentle oxide
#

yes

#

$$z = 2\cos(\theta) \pm 2i\sin(\theta)$$

cerulean cloud
#

our root here is

flat frigateBOT
cerulean cloud
#

2

#

what does that say then

#

x=1 and y=1??

gentle oxide
#

does this remind you of something

cerulean cloud
#

yeah 😭

#

but i still dont get

#

how to get y and x

gentle oxide
#

or well

#

what is the form of a complex number $z$ in rectangular?

flat frigateBOT
gentle oxide
#

it is $z = x + iy$, is it not?

flat frigateBOT
cerulean cloud
#

yes

#

it is

gentle oxide
#

so

cerulean cloud
#

in its rectangular form

#

that's

gentle oxide
#

$$z = x + iy$$
$$z = 2\cos(\theta) + i(2\sin(\theta))$$

flat frigateBOT
gentle oxide
#

any resemblance :3

cerulean cloud
#

√(x²+y²)= 2

gentle oxide
#

then it is true that $x^2 + y^2 = 4$?

flat frigateBOT
gentle oxide
#

now what does this imply 🙂

cerulean cloud
#

right

#

hold on

cerulean cloud
#

or it can be

#

other things??

gentle oxide
flat frigateBOT
gentle oxide
#

,w graph x^2 + y^2 = 4

flat frigateBOT
cerulean cloud
#

im not exactly familiar with these yet

#

no

gentle oxide
#

hm

#

that's odd

cerulean cloud
#

i still got me

#

questions

gentle oxide
#

you should deduce $x = 2\cos(\theta)$ and $y = \pm 2\sin(\theta)$

flat frigateBOT
gentle oxide
#

in other words, $x^2 + y^2 = 4$

cerulean cloud
#

oh yeah that's true

flat frigateBOT
gentle oxide
#

is this satisfactory?

gentle oxide
flat frigateBOT
cerulean cloud
#

that's

#

it???

gentle oxide
cerulean cloud
#

it's js x+yi? 😭

#

shouldn't we like find x and y from x²+y²=4

gentle oxide
#

x^2 + y^2 = 4 describe all complex solutions

cerulean cloud
#

oh rlly

#

you're saying it x²+y²=4 no matter what?

gentle oxide
#

in the complex plane

cerulean cloud
#

do u have any sources on it i can read

gentle oxide
#

pauls online notes are good

cerulean cloud
#

ok thank you ❤️‍🩹

#

i highly appreciate it

#

ok actually

#

i still have 2 more questions 😭

#

would z be equal to 2e^(π/2)i?

#

wait no it should be

#

2e^(θi)

#

±θ

gentle oxide
#

yes

cerulean cloud
#

so does its rectangular form

#

change if we put θ as pi/3

ionic wren
#

Why?

cerulean cloud
#

idk

#

im asking

ionic wren
#

Do you like it better with me following you or without?

gentle oxide
#

i gtg now

cerulean cloud
ionic wren
#

Is that a yes?

cerulean cloud
#

yes

ionic wren
#

You're not hurting me on purpose?

solar hazel
median sand
#

That is a confusing question.

cerulean cloud
cerulean cloud
median sand
cerulean cloud
#

ok anywho

gentle oxide
#

@cerulean cloud just an fyi, $z = 2e^{(i\theta)}$ defines a circle in the complex plane of radius $2$

ionic wren
#

Ok

flat frigateBOT
gentle oxide
#

this should be common knowledge if you are working like this with complex numbers, in conjunction with $x^2 + y^2 = r^2$ forming a graph of a circle centered at $(0, 0)$ with radius $r$

#

Im confused

#

How do i do this if theres no numbers given

#

is it like rearranging with the

#

Fraction surd thing

still stone
#

let's just say

#

AE = x

#

so EF = 2x

#

now find the sides of the right angled triangle AJM and you can use whatever you get from obtaining the tangent

Integration of 1/(cos(x-a)(cos(x-b))

safe radishBOT
nimble wyvern
#

write sin(a-b) in the numerator as sin((x-b)-(x-a)) while taking out the sin(a-b) in the denominator outside the integral

#

the rest is just applying sin(A+B) and we're done

median sand
#

Perhaps help the OP step by step, not showing all the works.

copper wraith
#

I got the hint thanks

#

Is there any other method?

nimble wyvern
#

yes but this is the cleanest one

nimble wyvern
median sand
median sand
#

Spoiling the fun.

nimble wyvern
#

🙏

copper wraith
#

Surely a=\b

nimble wyvern
safe radishBOT
#

@copper wraith Has your question been resolved?

copper wraith
#

But if at the start a=b

#

1/cos(x-a)^2

#

@nimble wyvern

nimble wyvern
#

then it just becomes sec^2(x-a)

copper wraith
#

tan(x-a)

nimble wyvern
#

yep

copper wraith
#

Yeah

#

Why am I getting different answers?

#

i meant one side we get 0 and other side tan(x-a)

nimble wyvern
#

???

nimble wyvern
copper wraith
#

the above integration where

#

I don't know who deleted my post

#

A=b we get 0

nimble wyvern
#

rest is great 👍

#

actually if you observe carefully, if we put a=b in the final result, we get an indeterminate (0/0) form

copper wraith
#

Thanks

#

Tell me one more thing how did you get idea of multiply by 1/sin(a-b)

#

@nimble wyvern

tawdry plover
#

now the brute force way you can do is perhaps through the weierstrauss substitutions (tan half angle), but that may produce some annoying algebra

#

i invite you to try both cos(b- a) and sin(b - a) to see why we take the sin option over the cos option

#

you will see in general that a lot of integration tricks rely on adding/subtracting 0s (i.e. a - a) or multiplying by 1 with a top and bottom term

safe radishBOT
valid jacinth
#

ik my part b is incomplete i just found the angle not the area

#

but

#

why is my approach to part c wrong?

#

all my coordinates r iincorrect

#

im new to vectors so idk

vague phoenix
#

You don't do the cross product for b?

valid jacinth
#

wdym

#

which vector are you referring to as b

vague phoenix
#

b

valid jacinth
#

oh do u mean part b

vague phoenix
#

Ah, are you using the formula $\frac{1}{2} |\vec{u}| |\vec{v}| \sin{\theta}$?

flat frigateBOT
#

❤ Neferia ❤

valid jacinth
#

yes

#

its just incomplete but i understand part b

#

im just lost on c

fathom jewel
#

c seems right from the idea (your sketch)

vague phoenix
#

Yeah, if D = (x,y,z) then you can have combinations like ACBD, ABDC or ABCD

valid jacinth
#

yes, the solutions do something using the Origin tho

#

which is why im confused

vague phoenix
#

But lookin' good so far

valid jacinth
#

i dont understand why my approach gives a completely different answer

#

because my sketch makes sense to me

median sand
#

In addition to Nefer, for each cases, suppose ABCD, AB = DC, then B-A = C-D.

#

Similarly to 2 other cases, you can quickly work out the coordinates (x,y,z) of D

vague phoenix
#

Fair point

fathom jewel
# valid jacinth

You need a reference point (like the origin) to make sense of when you add vectors where you will end up.

For example in order to get D1 you'd need OA+AB+AC

fathom jewel
valid jacinth
#

im having the same problem with another q

median sand
#

Ask away!

valid jacinth
#

because i havent been using the origin as like a reference poiint

#

im not too sure how tp

#

one second ill dhow the q

#

part b finding the centre

vague phoenix
valid jacinth
median sand
#

So I supposed you got A done.

valid jacinth
#

yes

#

my answers to A were correct

#

.rotate

median sand
#

Have you found the midpoint?

#

,rcw

flat frigateBOT
median sand
#

You got the coordinates of P and R already, right?

valid jacinth
valid jacinth
median sand
valid jacinth
#

yup i got that but its wrong because i didnt use the origin

#

i dont undertsand how to use the origin with it

#

i understand the rest

median sand
#

If coordinates $P (x_1,y_1,z_1)$ and $R(x_2,y_2,z_2)$, then center is: $(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2},\frac{z_1+z_2}{2})$

flat frigateBOT
#

Mercury.

valid jacinth
#

yes that makes sense i used that approach

vague phoenix
#

Yes, what did you get?

valid jacinth
#

but the solutions say i have to use the origin as a reference poiint which i dotn get

valid jacinth
#

thats the coordinates for the centre

median sand
#

The hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle right? which is the segment PR.

fathom jewel
valid jacinth
#

i dont understand what implicitly is sorry

median sand
fathom jewel
fathom jewel
# valid jacinth

The only issue is when you found your direction another example:

AC+AB then that still needs some "anchor point" and so naturally you'd choose OA (working with the origin is easiest)

median sand
valid jacinth
#

im just trying to understand the origin anchor poiint part

#

i see why an ‘anchor point’ is needed im just confused on how to use it

median sand
#

Anchor point?

median sand
#

Maybe anchor point is the connection between origin and the point?

fathom jewel
#

because AB+AC is just a vector in space, a simple direction and without applying to some point "meaningless"

valid jacinth
#

yes

#

ohh

#

OH

#

IT JUST CLICKED THAT MAKES SENSE

#

THANK U

median sand
#

Haha.

the C yes

#

I suppose you'd want to find the coordinates of C, right?

safe radishBOT
#

@valid jacinth Has your question been resolved?

valid jacinth
fathom jewel
#

Hmm

#

Well PR/2 is only displacement, like you realized by now

#

So you'd need to add OP for example to get to OC

fathom jewel
#

PR/2 would just represent the green vector but as said before wouldnt mean much since vectors are translation invariant

crisp remnant
#

I would do the 3rd question just tell me what is the 1st and 2nd

agile scaffold
#

well, because

#

!noans

safe radishBOT
#

The purpose of this server is to help you learn; please don't ask for direct answers. Ask for guidance, explanations, or feedback instead.

crisp remnant
karmic merlin
#

Which means you don't know what it means by square root spiral?

karmic merlin
#

Oh no I was just asking yes or no I'm not judging

agile scaffold
#

a square root spiral is constructed by multiple repeated right angle triangles

agile scaffold
#

you start out by using an isoceles right angle triangle of base 1 and height 1, the hypoteneuse would be sqrt2

#

you then use sqrt2 as the new base, draw a perpendicular line on the edge with side length 1, and draw another hypoteneuse

karmic merlin
#

Would showing them the image counts as answer cause honestly it would be somewhat hard to visualize what that means

normal moss
agile scaffold
#

im typing...

#

by pythagorean theorem, this new hypoteneuse would have a length of sqrt 3

crisp remnant
#

okay what about 2nd?

agile scaffold
#

you then use that as a base, draw a perpendicular line on the edge with side length 1, and draw another hypoteneuse, so on

crisp remnant
#

thanks

agile scaffold
#

you represent the number system in terms of a flow chart

crisp remnant
#

wasn't able to understand in google so I asked here

agile scaffold
#

perhaps something like real numbers are made of rational numbers and irrational numbers so you draw an arrow from real numbers to the other two and mark the arrow with like "consists of"

#

or something

#

the usual representation is with sets

#

i.e.

crisp remnant
#

okay

karmic merlin
#

Ye like that but in flow chart form

crisp remnant
#

ok thanks both of you

edgy crest
#

how am i even supposed to start i have to figure out what x y and z is

queen saddle
edgy crest
#

wait what

#

how do u know that

queen saddle
#

I just know )

edgy crest
#

is there like a theorem or formula?

queen saddle
#

ok, first prove that the blue obtuse angle at M is 120

agile scaffold
edgy crest
#

how do u do that

#

well alr

#

but how do u know its its an equatential triangle or wtv its called

#

i do maths in sweish

#

swedish

queen saddle
edgy crest
#

ik that but unless they gave us the info then that triangle to the left should be an isosceles

agile scaffold
#

well, how the diagram is presented makes me inclined to believe that the blue shape is a rhombus

queen saddle
edgy crest
#

they didnt give me that info

queen saddle
edgy crest
#

wait a rombus all sides are equal?

queen saddle
edgy crest
#

aha then yes ur correct

#

they say its a rombus but i didnt know that was important

#

well alright its 120 and x is 30 i think its easy from here on

#

hol on imma try to do it really fast

queen saddle
#

I can only vaguely guess that x=z as they are both red

#

though they are not drawn equal

edgy crest
#

nah i got it right x=30 z=15 and y=75

queen saddle
#

oh, so black sides of the triangle mean it is isosceles

edgy crest
#

yes

#

dang i skipped that too mb

#

thx alot

#

might come back later

#

yea but i forgot to mention those things

since theyre in swedish and it would be a pain for yall to translate that

How can I visualize the total derivative?

soft plover
#

the partial derivative dy/dx1 is easy, you just treat x2, x3, etc. as constants, and 'nudge' x3, and the resulting 'nudge factor' in y is the derivative

crude bear
#

What is total derivative

#

@soft plover

summer coral
#

are you talking about the derivative of some function z = f(x(t), y(t))?

#

if so, $\frac{\dd z}{\dd t} = \frac{\partial f}{\partial x} \frac{\dd x}{\dd t} + \frac{\partial f}{\partial y} \frac{\dd y}{\dd t}$

flat frigateBOT
soft plover

#

So the total derivative is the gradient

#

The total derivative is the linear map that aproximates f most closely around a point

soft plover
crude bear
#

Yes

#

Linear maps from R^n -> R are dot producs

#

$<\grad f, v>$

flat frigateBOT
soft plover
crude bear
flat frigateBOT
soft plover
#

thanks!

crude bear
#

There is thsi drawing (in more dimensions)

soft plover
#

wait, so I know the gradient of f(x1, x2, x3) at every point.
how do I get f'(a, b, c), the total derivative?

crude bear
broken pewter
#

Might be worth mentioning at some point thinking of a visual for math just doesn't work

#

Or at least doesn't help

crude bear
#

Yeah, it's hard to draw functions R^n -> R

#

R^n -> R^m is easier

soft plover
crude bear
#

so you have f(u(x), v(x))

soft plover
#

yeah

crude bear
#

So (u(x), v(x)) is a curve on the place. The total derivative is the derivative of f aong that curve

#

My man @summer coral probably remembers calc 3 more

Let $I$ be the set of irrational numbers, show $|\mathbb{R}| \leq |I|$

flat frigateBOT

#

so i would need to find an injection f: R to I

upbeat swan
#

Well first of all I is included in R

#

So now you just have to show that I is not less than R

#

Which can be done simply by proving that both I and R are uncountable

Or another way would be to find an injection as you proposed

@jade sundial , can you see all of the help channels, it feels like you cant see them so you don't know which ones are open

austere goblet
#

now please ask your question

jade sundial
#

what is Sine?

austere goblet
azure harbor
jade sundial
#

But why the sine,cosine and tangent have to stick with the angle?

azure harbor
dusk halo
#

They are based on the unit circle

azure harbor
#

Look at the image included

azure harbor
dusk halo
jade sundial
#

It seems like unit circle is very important,it's like the key.?

jade sundial
azure harbor
dusk halo
#

So if you have a circle with radius 1 then pick a point on it, sin is the y coordinate of the point and cos is the x coordinate

azure harbor
#

Used to define sin,cos,tan and a whole lot of trig functions

jade sundial
#

Is there a formula for it?

azure harbor
dusk halo
#

x^2 + y^2 = 1 is the unit circle formula

jade sundial
#

So,actually,the sine is this formula.?

azure harbor
#

Its for the unit circle

vague phoenix
#

Comprehensively, it is the ratio between opposite side and hypotenuse.

dusk halo
#

I think we are overcomplicating things a bit, if you just need to find angles dont worry about the unit circle

azure harbor
jade sundial
#

So,what is sine without theta?

azure harbor
#

sin(theta) is a function which takes the angle theta and outputs its sine

upbeat swan
#

again, lets not worry about the unit circle for now

azure harbor
#

I would also suggest reading about what a function is

jade sundial
#

So,what will sine do?what will this function do?is what does it calculate?I mean how how it calculates.

upbeat swan
#

it calculates opposite side / jupoyhenuse

#

in a triangle]

azure harbor
#

It includes what sine does

jade sundial
#

ok,i read frist

#

first

#

i finish

#

the

#

article

upbeat swan
jade sundial
#

In that example,I calculate the ratio.sin 30 degree equals to 0.5,which is Adjacent side divided by hypotenuse side,but and then I find out if I press the button sine on the calculator,and then I input the degree which is 30,thenand then I will get the ratio 1 over 2,right?but why I press sine 30,I will get this ratio?

dusk halo
#

1/2 = 0.5

#

its the same thing, but expressed differently

jade sundial
#

When I key in \sin 30^\circ on the calculator, it looks for the fixed ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse.

For any right-angled triangle with a 30^\circ angle, the ratio of its opposite side to its hypotenuse is always fixed at 1:2.

That’s why the calculator can directly show the ratio — the ratio never changes for the same angle.

#

is it correct

upbeat swan

yes

sinful wyvern
#

guys. is that variance/6 an application of Central Limit Theorem?

sinful wyvern
#

i'm so confused abt this CLT.

as long as number of sample is large, CLT applies. BUT if population has been distributed normally, CLT does not apply, regardless of the sample size?

is this correct

stoic dune
#

Yes. We need to know the variance of the sample mean, which the CLT gives us

sinful wyvern
stoic dune
stoic dune
sinful wyvern
#

why tho

#

isn't CLT like approximating a population distribution into normal?

#

why do we approximate a population that has been normally distributed into normal distribution?

stoic dune
#

The sample mean (that is, the average of the sample you've collected) is a random variable. It's random, because it depends on the sample you've collected.

Let me ask you this: what's the distribution of the sample mean?

#

Imo, that's a very non-obvious question

#

.
Like, you've got a sample of 6 pears and take their average weight. Do that over and over again with a different selection of 6 pears every time. Can you predict what that average is going to be, knowing what the distribution of the pears is? Can we give our average its own distribution?

#

Let me know if anything I'm saying is weird

Please do not advertise your help channel or thread in other parts of the server. There are many people who need help, so advertising can quickly turn into spam.

median sand
sinful wyvern
#

but samples follow the distribution of the population?

stoic dune
#

Sure. But does the average of the 6?

#

That's what the CLT tells us. The sample mean is normally distributed. This is true independently of the actual population distribution.

#

Precisely the CLT tells us the average of the 6 pears has

  • a normal distribution
  • The mean is 45g
  • The SD is √[52/6] g
stoic dune
sinful wyvern
#

uhhhhh

#

so CLT gives some form of confirmation...? 😭

#

gang i rly dont get this, it says one thing in the TB but it does the other thing in practice questions

#

what shld i follow for my exam sully

stoic dune
#

CLT gives us a distribution for the sample mean.

Make sure you know what the "sample mean" is, and why getting a distribution for it is a seemingly difficult task

honest perch
#

as long as it has finite expectation and variance

sinful wyvern
#

i mean it seems understandable but i need to ensure i get the right understanding

sinful wyvern
stoic dune
#

How are you doing it? Genuinely, what's your strategy for getting the distribution of the sample mean, without CLT?

sinful wyvern
honest perch
sinful wyvern
sinful wyvern
#

guys do yall study this in university

honest perch
#

many people do

sinful wyvern
#

i think my understanding is not enough (in high school), i need this to be rereviewed later in uni

honest perch
sinful wyvern
#

oh okay thats nice

stoic dune
#

Absolutely not. I expect any hser to understand this

sinful wyvern
#

oh wait that might not be nice

#

it says differently in the material im studying in hs rn

honest perch
#

also like realistically, most ppl would struggle to understand this

sinful wyvern
#

guys how do yall eventually understand this topic

#

😭

honest perch
#

everything made more sense after i did measure theory

#

but that comes quite a bit later, and is pure mathy

sinful wyvern
#

wait so okay CLT can apply at any distribution, the problem is just whether or not it is necessary.

for population that has been normally distributed, CLT can still apply, it's just that it's not necessary.

now what if for small samples? can CLT still apply? bcs in my hs material, it says CLT only applies for large sample

honest perch
#

it's just that the approximation is better the larger n is

stoic dune
honest perch
#

as n approaches infinity, you get the exact answer

honest perch
sinful wyvern
#

i saw the thing in my textbook where as n gets larger, the distribution becomes more normally distributed

#

like the normal curve becomes more normally distributed

honest perch
honest perch
#

normal is normal

sinful wyvern
honest perch
#

yes

sinful wyvern
#

approximation makes it even more perfect?

stoic dune
stoic dune
#

I think the problem is that you've got a picture for CLT in your head, and rejecting other pictures.

honest perch
stoic dune
sinful wyvern
stoic dune
#

CLT gives a distribution for the sample mean

sinful wyvern
honest perch
#

ok suppose X_1, ..., X_n are iid rvs

stoic dune
#

I think you think that "CLT gives a distribution for the sample mean" is like saying "CLT approximates other distributions" and that's why you're ignoring me lol.

They're not saying the same thing.

honest perch
#

then Xbar = (X_1 + ... + X_n)/n is a rv

#

u wanna find the dist of Xbar

#

CLT gives u an approximate dist of Xbar

#

if each X_i is normal, then the dist that CLT gives is exactly the dist of Xbar

sinful wyvern
honest perch
#

like Y ~ N(0,1)

stoic dune
#

Oh, yeah we can talk about that. A random variable is a variable that can take random values.

For example "the result of a dice roll" is a random variable. Can take values from 1 to 6

sinful wyvern
honest perch
#

the sample mean has only 1 distribution

stoic dune
#

Random variables get distributions, which tell us specifically "how random it is".

Dice pick the values between 1-6 "uniformly". Dice give a uniform distribution.

sinful wyvern
honest perch
sinful wyvern
honest perch
#

if i understand u correctly

sinful wyvern
#

yes...

honest perch
#

ok look

#

just remember this

#

every random variable has exactly 1 distribution

#

the sample mean is a random variable

sinful wyvern
#

i get it i mean

sinful wyvern
#

OH so is it CLT the one who gives or decide that 1 distribution sotrue

#

i think im getting this...

sinful wyvern
#

OOOOOO

#

so it's like

#

each thing inside Xbar might have different distribution

#

but since they are one random variable, they need to have only one distribution

sinful wyvern
#

CLT decides and gives that one distribution

sinful wyvern
honest perch
#

what is a "thing inside Xbar"

sinful wyvern
#

😭

#

the samples i guess...

honest perch
#

please use mathematical notation

sinful wyvern
#

i dont know any notation related to this CLT 😭

honest perch
#

what are the samples

sinful wyvern

uhhhh the proportion of population...

sinful wyvern

representative of the population?

no

yes sample mean

#

you didn't say that

#

bcs CLT isnt restricted by sample size or population distribution right

sinful wyvern

#

yes

each sample is a random variable

i genuinely thought it can only apply if sample is large and population distribution is not normal

Prove that there is a proper class of ordinals $\alpha$ such that $\alpha = \aleph_\alpha = \beth_\alpha$. [Possible hint: Given any ordinal $\beta$, form a set ${a_n: n \in \omega}$ by $\alpha_0 = \beta$, $a_{n+1} = \beth_{\alpha_n}$ and look at $\alpha^*=\bigcup {\alpha_n : n\in \omega}$

after defining these sets

safe radishBOT

@tranquil geyser Has your question been resolved?

tranquil geyser
#

what does fixed point mean?

#

For any ordinal $\beta$, we form sequences by induction., where $\alpha_0 = \beta$ and $\alpha_{n+1} = \beth_{\alpha_n}$. Now let $\alpha^* = \bigcup{\alpha_n : n \in \omega}$ \\
I first want to claim that $\alpha^* = \beth_{\alpha^}$. Observe by definition, since $\alpha^$ is an limit ordinal, $\beth_{\alpha^} = \bigcup {\beth_\gamma : \gamma < \alpha^}$. Pick any element $x \in \alpha^$. By definition, there exists, some $k < \omega$ such that $x \in a_k$. We also know that $\alpha_{k+1} < \beth_{a_k}$, so $a_k <\beth_{a_k}$ since our sequence is increasing. So $x \in \beth_{a_k}$ for some $k < \alpha^$, so $x \in \bigcup{\beth_\gamma : \gamma < \alpha^}$. Therefore, $\alpha^ \subseteq \beth_{\alpha^}$. Now, pick $x \in \beth_{\alpha^}$. Then there exists some $\gamma <\alpha^$ such that $x \in \beth_{\gamma}$. Observe that $\alpha^ = \bigcup {\alpha_n : n \in \omega}$, so there exists $k \in \omega$ such that $\gamma <\alpha_k$. Then by monotonicity, $\beth_\gamma < \beth_{\alpha_k} = \alpha_{k+1}$. So $x \in \alpha_{k+1}$, hence, $x \in \alpha^$. Therefore, $\alpha^8 = \beth_{\alpha^}$.

Translation: triangle ABC is drawn in a circle with the middle point M. The angle BCA = 30°, see figure.

Show that the circular arc (like the one between AB) is around 4.7% longer than the straight line AB

#

How do i approach this

#

My first thought is to do this but idk where to go from here..

glass carbon
#

you must firstly find the measure of the central angle BMA (which is twice as large as the inscribed angle BCA subtended by the same arc)

I FORGOT ABT THIS

stoic torrent
#

okay so now try on your own
hint:

#

||hint: Do you see how you can find the arc length in terms of angle BMA and radius r of the circle?
After this you should also observe smth interesting about the triangle BMA from which you find side AB in terms of radius||

viscid marsh
#

Okay so i know that AB is the same length as the radius buti dont rlly get ehere to go from here?

#

Wait

glass carbon
#

You can divide both results to get rid of r (i.e. find the ratio)

#

What is your length of the arc AB?

#

(in terms of r)

viscid marsh
#

Wait is it like 60/360 * 2pi(r)

glass carbon
#

yes

#

so:

#

arc AB/AB = ...

viscid marsh
#

1.047

glass carbon
#

Convert it to percent

viscid marsh
#

4.7%

glass carbon
#

And you're done

viscid marsh
#

I have a question so is 60/360 bc of like the angle BMA

glass carbon
#

yes because BMA = 60 deg

viscid marsh
#

Ok yeah

#

I get it

#

Thank you!

#

I struggled w this a lot but now i understand! Thank you i apprecite it a bunch 😁😊🌷

I think I’ve solved it correctly but I’m confused how to deal with the fact that it’s leaking out and is negative ?

worldly lantern
#

the rate of decrease in a quantity is always taken as a negative value

barren fjord
worldly lantern
#

yes

barren fjord
#

Oh so they just cancel out basically

worldly lantern
#

i cant necessarily comment on dv/dh

#

but anything with the word "decrease" next to it is negativw

barren fjord
worldly lantern
barren fjord
#

If it’s leaking then the volume has to be decreasing tho

Trying to approximate the direct integral of cos(x^0.5) from [0, 1] using the 4th Maclaurin polynomial for cos(x), then approximate the error.

hardy gulch
#

I'm being prompted to just use a calculator to find the actual value of the integral, which is fine, then state the error in the approximation.
I don't have a lot of examples, but I have misgivings about whether it would work to use the remainder theorem, since I've done step-by-step integration to to find the approximation.

#

This is (what I assume is) the closest similar example I can find from my text. When they mention the alternating series test at the end, what do they mean?

safe radishBOT
#

@hardy gulch Has your question been resolved?

tardy mango
#

they're using the first four terms to approximate, so the error is bounded above by the magnitude of the fifth term

#

which is 1/216

tardy mango
#

the first is the factorial of 2n, the second is taking the factorial of n and multiplying by two (with a superfluous pair of parentheses)

#

yeah just do the bounds now

#

though for the error, I'd use the alternating series error bound as mentioned above

#

I suppose you could use the Lagrange error bound, but taking all of those derivatives would be very annoying
