Hey guys, I need help with this. I'm struggling on where to start.
I have to determine the area of the triangle, but as you can see, all I have is the angles and the bisector as information
(on the right side are the answer options )
Are you aware of the sine rule?
yes, but I can't use it when I don't have enough information to calculate with

@fervent anchor Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
this proof seems kinda odd and maybe unintuitive but it makes sense to me
can anyone follow this?
@fervent anchor Has your question been resolved?
ok so by bezouts identity gcd(12, 25)=1 so there exist such a and b, so that 12a+25b=1
then you can just scale them
brb
We never learned this in class so we aren’t allowed to use it on our homework’s
the step is the problem im guessing
you know that f(n)<2-1/n
you basically want to prove f(n+1)<2-1/(n+1)
you can expand lhs and get f(n)+1/(n+1)^2 < 2-1/(n+1)
so you can subtract the hypothesis and get 1/(n+1)^2 < 2-1/(n+1)-2+1/n
which after some manipulation should reduce to what you want to prove
i think theres a typo in the end, theres a really nice idea but they explain it really poorly
btw ping me if you need any more help
isnt that wat I did? 12(-2n) + 25(n)= n
yes basically
what exactly do you mean by guessing?
i mean im guessing thats the part you are unsure abt ig
to be honest I understand the idea but wording it is hard for me. any idea which parts come across as unclear?
doesnt what I have already reduce to what we want to prove? is this just a more concise way to do it?
im really bad at understanding purely mathematical explanations and stuff like that in general so for my case it would help to say it informally
Hello @fervent anchor I might be able to help with logic. I'll stay quiet to allow @long ridge to help first though.
if u could look at theorem 4 i'd appreciate that
also, does theorem 3 look good? I think it holds but Clovk makes me think it might not hold
Sure let me take a look
You will want this to be strictly less than instead of $\leq$
You may wish to state that $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and fix up the right side so that you have $2 - \frac{1}{k}$
This is not obvious to me and would need more explanation
Why not this?
In red is where I have applied the induction hypothesis
Let me know if my comments make sense
I was able to simplify the RHS to get $2 - \frac{1}{k+1}$ and can show you, if interested
Looking at (4) now
Base case looks good, and induction hypothesis good
(again you may wish to state that $k \in \mathbb{N}$)
May wish to state: Let $Y$ be a set such that $Y = X \cup \left{ m\right}$, where $m$ is an additional element that was not previously in $X$.
The notation here is a bit confusing, but I understand your overall approach and your approach makes sense. Let me see if I can help clean up your explanation a bit
please do
I think you basically want to argue that $Y-\left{m\right}=X$ has $k$ elements, so $\mathcal{P}(X)$ has $2^{k}$ subsets by the induction hypothesis. Next, consider how many new subsets would be formed containing element $m$. Well, this is exactly $2^{k}$ additional subsets (each one of the previous ones with $m$ in it). Thus, $\mathcal{P}(Y)$ has $2^{k} + 2^{k} = 2 \times 2^{k} = 2^{k+1}$ subsets.
My thought process was I needed to cancel $k(k+1)$ in the denominator, so I asked if I was able to remove the $+1$ in the numerator preventing me from factoring.
Since removing the 1 would make this fraction smaller (thus subtracting LESS than before), the overall inequality does not change. In other words, removing the 1 actually makes the RHS larger than the previous step.
So to finish up my thoughts about Thm 4. Your idea is absolutely correct and valid. It just needs to be "cleaned up" a bit to make it stronger.
sure! ill also be online in about 3 hours (Twitch) so may have to wait until closer to then
i need to adult for a few minutes lol

It’s just to calculate the standard deviation
If that helps
Am I wrong to add up the sum of each column?
so you do know the formula for standard deviation right?
$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{1}{N} \sum_{i=1}^{N} (x_i - \mu)^2}$
Davit
you have 7 terms, so replace N with 7, Xi is the current terms you have, myu is the mean or the arithmetic average of the set
Would xi-u be the sum of the 7 xi-u’s?
Ok I got it, so the standard deviation is 6.268
Would you recommend adding the columns 2 and 3 like I did 1 to get the totals?

can someone help me solve this
i dont think my class has ever covered this at all but im curious
i only know power and energy here
if you put N watts in, you would get 0.05N watts out
so if you get 50W out, then 0.05N = 50
where did you get 2.5?
5% of 50
ohh - nono
e.g. if you put 100W in, then you would get 0.05*100=5W out
so yes if you put 50W in you would get 2.5W out
but you want to do this backwards
oh
you're putting N watts in, and getting 0.05*N watts out - which is equal to 50
so its 50 divided by 0.05?
yeah
I think the efficiency question is completely separate?
=5%
it talks about a pulley
oh ur right
this question sheet im using is ancient its full of mistakes

how would i pick my x and y
to sub in
context

it sent finally 😭
i got my mapping from the function
what does that even mean
mapping notation
u have ay+c for y
and x/k+d for x
,rcw
[ x \mapsto \df{x}{2} - \df{3\pi}{8} ]
[y \mapsto 5y - 3 ]
Pure
yes
? this doesn tmake much sense so far what are you trying to do?
its asking us to state 5 points on the graph
any 5 points?
,rccw
how would i get their x and y
tho
yea bit i need both x and y
i duno where x is
when y is at a max or min
[\mr{5\cos (2x - \df{3\pi}{4}) -3= 2}]
[\mb{5\cos (2x - \df{3\pi}{4}) -3= -8}]
solve these two
Pure
how would i even solve that
[\mr{\cos (2x - \df{3\pi}{4})=1}]
[\mb{\cos (2x - \df{3\pi}{4})= -1}]
Pure
where did 5 cos go
[\mr{5\cos (2x - \df{3\pi}{4}) -3= 2} \mg \rightarrow \mr{5\cos (2x - \df{3\pi}{4}) = 5} \mg\rightarrow \mr{\cos (2x - \df{3\pi}{4})=1}]
same for the other one

What is this called and how do I do this? I'm guessing you use the formula for whichever is across the given number but I'm not sure. So like you start across the 9 and if its a 45 degree angle then you do y = x radical 2 and stuff
Those are special right triangles, more specifically, 45 - 45 - 90 triangles
thanks I'll look up a video

what triple would work with this
I thought maybe 3,4,5 if i multiply by 4
But no ;/
I would start off by finding the hypotenuse using the pythagorean theorem
Then I would simplify the triangle down as much as possible
Then sin(x) = y/h
cos(x) = x/h
tan(x) = y/x
csc(x) = 1/sin(x)
sec(x) = 1/cos(x)
cot(x) = 1/tan(x)
ohhhh
Ok
I try something
wait
so a^2+b^2=c^2
which is for the hyp , adj and opposite
c^2 for hyp?
uh
they want both
waiiit

what are you precisely supposed to do with it ?
factor it ? or you need a vertex form ?
or you search zeros of this fucntion ?
seems like simplifying
if you're factoring where a doesn't equal 1 I love the slide and divide method :)
https://valenciacollege.edu/locations/lake-nona/documents/Method3-SlideandDivide.pdf
$ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left( x-x_{1} \right)\left( x-x_{2} \right)\text{ }\text{ for }\text{ }\Delta =b^{2}-4ac>0\\\text{where: }\\x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a}\\
x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a}$
Joanna Angel
and
$ax^{2}+bx+c=a\left( x-x_{0} \right)^{2}\text{ }\text{ for }\text{ }\Delta =b^{2}-4ac=0\\\text{where: }\\x_{0}=\frac{-b}{2a}$
Joanna Angel
the teacher's final answer was
(2x+5)(3x-1)
ye si agree with it
so you can use first method
i showed you above
but u cant divide
im confused
i do not use division
still
there's so many numbers
you can also do it like this:
$6x^{2}+13x-5=\left( 6x^{2}-2x \right)+\left( 15x-5 \right)=\\2x\left( 3x-1 \right)+5\left( 3x-1 \right)=\left( 3x-1 \right)\left( 2x+5 \right)$
Joanna Angel
how did u get -2x
because 13x = -2x + 15x
i selected such wya, because later, i get two parenthesies, where
i can take out something and , parenthsies will be identical (3x-1)
you just have to remember that this method does not rely on a pattern, but on observation
that's why earlier, I showed you general methods to deal with each case without using observation
and now, you have to decide, what you like
oh
yes ik how to do that
what would happen to 15
thats what im confused on
in second parenethesis, was 15x - 5, so i took out 5, to get 3x - 1, inside
because
in first parenthesis i got later, 3x - 1 too
so then 18x and -6
nom not 18, if you have 15x - 5 , you get: 5(3x - 1)
oh

im completely confused
whats confused you?
how do the roots and g(2)=168 become that polynomial? do I make use of the factor theorem?
if by factor theorem you mean writing the below, then yeah
g(x)=ax(x+3)(x+4)(x+5)
you then use g(2)=168 to find a
so would g(2)=168 be a factor in this case?
thats not a factor no
ohhh wait wait
its just something to help find a, since that scaling factor cant be found from the roots alone
yup
ohhh thank you thank you
nw
okay wait so
I got a=0.4
how do I determine which polynomial is the right one
wait no
holon
nvm yea
its 0.4
so what do I do with a to get the polynomial
if youve said a=0.4
then you can just expand it
wdym
expand the brackets, then you should have one of the answers
sorry im still a little confused what u mean by expand the brackets
for example if you had (x+a)(x+b)
expanding those would give x^2+ax+bx+ab
that kind of thing

I need help on further simplifying this problem
first you should simplify -15/6
no I mean -15/6 is not in simplest form
I know
WhereWolf(ping if needed)
so just move it to the bottom?
This was the answer that was provided on the question
???
I do not know how my math teacher got that.
@torn jolt Has your question been resolved?
NO
@torn jolt Has your question been resolved?
no
Just press the ❌, no need to reply

if the black dot is down then i look down and if its up then i look up right
(ping when u reply pls ty)
what do you mean by "look down/up"
I mean yeah, but it's because the black dot shows the actual value of the function at that x
so if that black dot was up for example
yes
ok, what does this mean; 1.2 Finding limits graphically and numerically.
finding them graphically is what you're doing right now; analyzing a graph and checking what the limits are for all shown x values
finding numerically is just taking a given function f(x) and computing its limits
like it just means exactly what you think it means
ooooh
so finding limits numerically
is like
when it says
f(x) = x^2+4 / x+2
x -> 2+
right?
ohh ok great, but now the part that confuses me the most is
does this mean less than -4?
(which is -4.1)
limit of f(x) as x approaches -4 from the left
where is the left and right
uh
I mean just look at the x value youre finding the limit of
and determine which side is left and right
which is probably the easiest step
ahh so distance doesn't matter
you don't really view limits in terms of distance because you're finding the value f(x) approaches as x goes infinitesimally close to some value
and this 5, it doesn't say if its 5+ or 5-, so do i just treat it as 5
basically yeah
I mean you also treat 5- and 5+ as 5's but the - and + just indicate which direction you're approaching the value from
so can is ay that 5+ is 5.1
thats not what a limit means
that's what the teacher told us
thats a way of computing what it approaches
like act as if its 5.1
by increasing 5 by a small amount
but thats not explicitly what a limit is
but sure
it could also be 5.01
or 5.000001
only thing that matters is that the value is extremely close to, but not equal to, 5, and is logically consistent with the direction you're going
eg if you were approaching from the left you would have something like 4.9999
for a piecewise to be continuous like that for all real #s then 3x^2 has to equal ax-4 at the point where the piecewise changes
plot this piecewise in desmos and you'll get an idea
ahh i get the idea now
otherwise you would have a jump discontinuity which is not continuous
yuppp
the teacher failed to explain this for a whole week
and u explained it in 1 discord message
great
it be like that sometimes
for this
i just take the the sign
and multiply them
I'm not sure I understand but lets go through each one
a) you approach 0 from the left, anything to the left of zero is negative
resulting in a negative value
b) as you approach 1+ you'll have some value that is slightly larger than 1
for example 1.00001
yes
so when you plug this into the function, the denominator x-1 is positive because you have 1.00001 - 1
then the answer will be positive
yes
so its 0+
well no for that one the limit is 1+ as it shows
which lesson is that
1.2 Finding limits graphically and numerically.
1.3 Finding limits analytically + (L'hopital rule)
1.4 Continuity and one sided limits
1.5 Infinite limits
2.2 Basic differentiation rules and rates of changes
2.3 Product and quotient rules
2.4 The chain rule
2.5 Implicit differentiation.
Finding limits numerically
uh
ok i think i get that part
I think it's numerically? I would check on what is covered in "infinite" limits
i think its infinite limits
it could fall under that one cause the result is infinity unless it just talks about x -> inf
yup
ok good i understand infinite limits fully
1.2 Finding limits graphically and numerically.
1.3 Finding limits analytically + (L'hopital rule)
1.4 Continuity and one sided limits
2.2 Basic differentiation rules and rates of changes
2.3 Product and quotient rules
2.4 The chain rule
2.5 Implicit differentiation.
one more thing
ya?
numerically means testing small increases in values like we did with 1.0001 and all that, analytically means you solve for the limit using algebra/calc manipulation
anyway for this part
oh so theres a difference, ok
i just take the denominator and do =0
you find where f(x) goes to infinity and usually that is found through the denominator
yes
because theres a vertical asymptote there
it just goes to infinity which is associated with undefined
so what does it mean when the answer is equal undefined
oh
so DNE and undefined are the same?
i dont think so
because in our exam paper
i answered a question and put it as DNE
it was correct
but my friend had it as undefined and it was wrong
let me show u
ok yeah
so when you're dealing with limits
you use DNE if lim(x->a-) is not equal to lim(x->a+)
but if you're dealing with JUST evaluating the function at that point, f(a) = undefined
hold up
🤔
is this your answer
yeah so for the DNE answer it's right because as I said here
limits are not equal
no
yes
i dont get how i did C
ye i know
i was confused on whether to choose DNE or undefined
now i get it
but i dont get why is it DNE and not 1 or -1
because limits show what value you're approaching
left limit shows you're approaching 1
right limit shows you're approaching -1
they're not the same so the limit cannot exist
when you're evaluating the function, then you use the black dot
because that's the actual point
because as I said
limits show what value you approach
not the value at that point itself
the two limits left and right very clearly meet at the same point
so the limit exists, and f(x) approaches 4
but f(x) is not 4 as shown by the discontinuity
yes
abit more and abit less
true
do u think u can still answer my questions? i feel like i asked too much
yeah
okay thanks a lot
how is it DNE for lim x-> -1
oh wait i see it
why is f(-1)=0?
oh the black dot
so let me make sure i understand this correctly
if it says lim f(x) as approaches -1 for example
i find -1**+** and -1**-** then check if they're equal, if they are then its that number else DNE
did i draw it correctly
for the blue one
yes
(sorry for the amount of questions im asking)
i have my final exam tomorrow and im trying to wrap everything up
now this, i dont get anything in it
the interval is [-3,3] and you want to check if any points or range of x values are discontinuous
first thing to do is analyze the function and look at what possibly could make it discontinuous
what do you see?
well, from what i understand that i should just plug in the number and forget the pluses and minuses at the top of the number
since that's what they're doing
look at the function
theres a constant 3 which doesn't change anything
then you have a square root
what do you know about the domain of square roots?
0 to inf?
yes, what does that mean for the inside of the radical?
no idea
the radical cannot be <0
because doing so yields an imaginary value
so for your problem, 9 - t^2 cannot be negative
from (-3,3), is the square root imaginary?
nope
good
so you have part of the interval down
now you need to test the endpoints
to see if they can be included in the range of continuity
if they yield a non-real value, then they can't
oooooooooooooooooh
ok i think i get it now
so i have to make sure
that the range
between them
is a real value
all of them
yes
yup got it
implicit differentiation is when u do derivatives and include y prime when u do the derivative of y right
yes, aka dy/dx
I'd remember them
when solving problems
removable - remove just one point and put it somewhere else
jump - entire function jumps suddenly to somewhere else
what do u think it can ask me about them
basically anything we've just gone over
maybe explain the 2 types of discontinuities?
maybe
but this list should be all you need for that
ok i'll keep them in mind
removeable is when u remove just one point and put it somewhere else
but are u sure about the jump one
does the entire function jump
or some of it
ah ok
got it
we replace x with 4 and not 4+ because it didnt specifiy, if its from the left or from the right, correct?
and if we get 0/0 when doing limits we use the L'hopital rule
yes
but if it was in a graph, then i should look at its right and at its left
yes
is this a rule i'm supposed to know
1st one is easy af to derive using lhopitals so I wouldnt
2nd one too
but if you want to then sure
ok no more board pics
oh wait there is still 3 more
let me check if theres anything i dont get
ahh this
isn't this called a piecewise function
yes
yes
I would use closer values to the limit
but if thats what your teacher said then i guess it's fine
and for these i just treat the sign of the upper number and the down number
and multiply them
so + divide by - is -
so i just put -∞
yes
but make make make make make sure you don't confuse the sign on the limit value
with the actual sign of the function
ahh like -1-
like in general
for example x -> 1-
for that function it would not be negative despite the sign there (which only indicates which direction youre approaching from)
yup yup i get what u mean
i think thats it
now lets just make sure i know the topics
1.2 Finding limits graphically and numerically.
1.3 Finding limits analytically + (L'hopital rule)
1.4 Continuity and one sided limits
1.5 Infinite limits
2.2 Basic differentiation rules and rates of changes
2.3 Product and quotient rules
2.4 The chain rule
2.5 Implicit differentiation.
1.2 is where it gives us the graph and asks us to find the limit, and numerically is where it gives us the function without a graph
what was 1.3?
numerically - using actual values and plugging in to estimate value of limit
eg. 1.001
analytically - using algebra/calc rules to manipulate function and make the limit able to be evaluated at the point
eg. lhopitals, factoring out x terms, etc
o so thats what it means
1.4 Continuity and one sided limits - when it says 1/0+ then it'll be = +∞
wait no
thats infinite limits
again go ask your teacher if that's what infinite limits mean
continuity is the removeable thing and the jump
because I can't say for sure
i remember it
1.5 Infinite limits - is where it has something /0
2.2 Basic differentiation rules and rates of changes - is basically the chain rule, product rule etc
again
idk if your teacher classifies 'limits that go to infinity' as infinite limits
so I would ask them that
yea it is, i just made sure
2.3 Product and quotient rules - easy af
2.4 The chain rule - easy af
wait the chain rule is like the power rule right
f(x) = (4x+1)^2
2(4x+1)(4)
- put the power down
- copy paste whats inside the bracket
- derivative for whats inside the bracket
have you covered derivatives other than powers of x yet?
yes
i understand them
then chain rule isn't just that
- indentify functions that are contained within a function
- differentiate outside function while keeping the inside function the same
- multiply that with the derivative of the inside function
chain rule
it's just $\frac{d}{dx}(f(g(x)))= f'(g(x))\cdot g'(x)$
Triaxyz
that's what I said in this
I said it in a general way because you seem to only know the case for powers of x
probably
thats the point
2.5 Implicit differentiation - is when u use y'
how will you know what to do if they ask d/dx (sin(4x))
they wont
because my teacher is the one who puts the exam (hopefully thats true)
and we haven't taken it as d/dx
that's besides the point and you're still not sure if that's the case
so I would remember the general procedure
true u got a point
well man i really hope tomorrow's exam goes well
im very worried
@sick karma appreciate you for staying w/me and answering all of my questions, it means a lot

in question ii how do they go from 1 to two
how does the -x become x^2 on the numerator
the multiplaied by x to have common denominator
10/x - x
10/x - x/1
multiply x/1 by x
10/x - x²/x
now you have common denomimator
now you can write
10-x²/x
do you understand?
you can only subtract and add fractions only if you have common denominator
third step * sorry
they move the ten but how does it become 3x and what happened to the fraction
yeah sure

WHAT TO DO
I do not know what real roots is. What is the real root?
Im assuming since you have the discriminant and knowning that it's above 0, you're already given 2 solutions
And since it also equals 0, that's another solution
so you have 3
im just spouting some random things, don't take me that seriously
a solution that is real
which is just a real number
okay, thanks
how?
from the original equation
as it equals 0
yea maybe thats not it
well actually
without proper reasoning
it is 3
since the discriminant gives u 2 already
and its a cubic polynomial
so there can't be two
so choose 3
It's a quintic, not a cubic
you same guy as just now
yuh
The discriminant exists for any polynomial, of any degree
oh
Whether it "works" or not depends on what you mean
i dont know
like can i get the number of real roots
i thought discrimant only give 1 2 or 0
Not really
A zero discriminant tells you there is a multiple root, but other than that, I don't know how I would use it
I'm not sure there is a method other than taking the derivative and checking values on increasing or decreasing intervals
@ancient wyvern Has your question been resolved?
how does that give x intercept though?
A quintic is only going to have at most 4 local extremas, plus it will tend to +-infinity at +-infinity
A zero will only occur at a local extremum or between two consecutive extrema that have opposite sign
is this memorization?
that a quintic has 4 extremas
A polynomial of degree n can only have n-1 local extrema
It's easy to show: its derivative is a polynomial of degree n-1 and as such can only have n-1 roots
(at most)
i see
if its like x^5+3x^3 +2
lets say
it onyl factors in the highest degree?
?

if anyone understand lodev raycasting tutorial(https://lodev.org/cgtutor/raycasting.html#Textured_Raycaster) i want to ask him about this
H: hitpoint of the ray on the wall. Its y-position is known to be mapY + (1 - stepY) / 2
yDist matches "(mapY + (1 - stepY) / 2 - posY)", this is the y coordinate of the Euclidean distance vector, in world coordinates. Here, (1 - stepY) / 2) is a correction term that is 0 or 1 based on positive or negative y direction, which is also used in the initialization of sideDistY.

why is sin(180-v)/cos(180-v) the same as -sin(v)/cos(v), but sin(90-v)/cos(90-v) not the same as -sin(v)/cos(v)

I’ll reformat it with LaTeX
thx
sin(90-v) = cos(v)
cos(90-v) = sin(v)
$\frac{\sin(180-v)}{\cos(180-v)}=-\frac{\sin(v)}{\cos(v)}$

Could someone tell me if i am doing this question correctly
@slate meteor Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
@slate meteor Has your question been resolved?
Seems written ad linear algebra - Are they looking for a matrix answer?
nope just a function
ye
i thought u had to split it like 2x + 15, 5y + 20
Best check, I think.
i think you might be right
It reads like a matrix multiplication.
Hence my earlier question.
But always an option to just do the algebra.
ig these two functions here would be the correct answer ?
since it doesnt provide you with letters to encipher
i guess
They want the deciphering function
the inverse, right?
BTW: Wolfram tells me that inverse [2 5;1 4] is 1/3*[4 -5;-1 2]
oh right but i have only ever inversed a one letter function
uh not sure where all those numbers are coming from
ax + b = y and inverse would be x = a^-1(y-b)
not sure
$x'=2x+5y+15$
G. Spark
oh and x + 4y + 20
$y'=1x+4y+20$
G. Spark
Solve for x & y in terms of x' and y'?
i assume i can let them both = 0 ?
You don't know what they are.
You need to solve the functions
not sure i know how to do that
\begin{bmatrix}x\y \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}2 & 5\1 & 4\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}x\y \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix}15\20 \end{bmatrix}

we could subtract the [15;20] from both sides
$\begin{bmatrix}x'\y' \end{bmatrix} - \begin{bmatrix}15\20 \end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix}2 & 5\1 & 4\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}x\y \end{bmatrix} $
G. Spark
Then take an inverse
🤔
$\begin{bmatrix}2 & 5\1 & 4\end{bmatrix}^{-1}\left(\begin{bmatrix}x'\y' \end{bmatrix} - \begin{bmatrix}15\20 \end{bmatrix}\right)=
\begin{bmatrix}x\y \end{bmatrix} $

this is alot of work for just 4 marks lmao
Ok. Longer by algebra without matrices, I suspect.

How did they get the /2 from when taking out the 1/4
,,\frac{(x+1)^2}{4}=\frac{(x+1)^2}{2^2}=\left(\frac{x+1}{2}\right)^2
cloud
Does this only work because it’s a square
If it was a number like 1/17 that was pulled out the integrand what would happen
you could pull in $\sqrt{17}$
cloud
,,\frac{(x+1)^2}{17}=\frac{(x+1)^2}{(\sqrt{17})^2}=\left(\frac{x+1}{\sqrt{17}}\right)^2
