yes
and you notice that the triangle then has to have a hypotenuse of 1 right?
its asking how i find tan b, but in that area isnt it cos and sin
since the hypotenuse is technically the radius
don’t jump the gun
no i just mentioned that a unit circle has radius 1 by default
but your triangle has hypotenuse 30
i thought you were talking about the triangle mb
ohh alr
now that it fits in your unit circle
you first find sin(theta)
then you find cos(theta)
whats theta
angle B
yes there were angles A,B, and C in your triangle
sin b according to the new triangle?
yes
and cos(b)
yes ofc
and then use the fact that tan(b) = sin(b)/cos(b)
u just have to explain briefly ig
it’d worth the least mark but we spent the most effort on it
thus far
sin b is a long decimal tho
use exact values
ofc it’s a long decimal
it has sqrt(3) which is irrational
so “long decimal”
sqrt 3/2
howd you get that
isnt it sqrt 3/2 over 1/2
which corresponds to sin(B)
yes
cos(B) = 1/2
you should already at least know that cos(60 degrees) is 1/2
u should’ve also known other basic angles like cos(30 degrees)
yeah
but what happened to the 1/2
an angle B such that sin(B) = sqrt(3)/2 and cos(B) = 1/2 is B = 60 degrees

ok i think i understand
,,\frac{\sqrt 3}{2} \div \frac 12 \implies \frac{\sqrt 3}{2} \cdot \frac 21
nyxie9151
and then that is
i hope you know what that is lol
it’s just multiplying fractions
cancel the 2s out
its sqrt 3
a thing to note is that scaling down works because you just made a similar triangle
the angle is still the same
only the side lengths changed
even then the ratio of the side lengths are also preserved
i mean yeah just use 1/2 b*h
i dont think my teacher would let me do that lmao
i think im prob supposed to use a law or smt
nah
u got 5 marks
for finding an angle which was easy to find in a right triangle
i think 3 marks is fair for the area
yeah except you have stuffs here that allows you to use 1/2 b * h
making stuffs harder doesn’t mean more score
i guess
no ty
just to check its 225 right
if u really want u can also use your other formula
this one
if for some reason u like making stuffs hard
but i feel like your teacher would find it weird that u used this formula when u identified it’s a right triangle in part 1)
maybe
,w 0.5 * 15 * 15 * sqrt(3)
the base isnt the hyp?
there’s no difference between what u consider as base or what u consider as height in a right triangle
multiplication is commutative so
3 * 4 = 4 * 3
because i did 30 times 15
well i never said there’s no difference between the hypotenuse and the base/height
i’m talking about the base and height
hypotenuse is not interchangeable

I need help solving question 3. I’ve tried using the Euclidean algorithm and I believe I ended up with minimal n is 1 and minimal m is 4 but I am unsure
@past marten Has your question been resolved?
Thank you for answering! To solve for the pair in each part
Do I just plug n into the equation to solve for the m in that situation and vice versa in b?
for a it's easy because it's 100
and for b it's 236 iirc
but yes just plug in m = 4 in
234
1932/8
,w 1932/8
now i've confused myself :D
Oh no
it's 229
i confused myself :D
it's 1832/8
that's 1998 - 90 - 19 * 4
i have no idea where i got the 236 and 234 from
Thank you! So I did the work right then, just needed to plug it in to find the pairs?
yes

Use Pytagora's trigonometric identity
@candid estuary Has your question been resolved?
hi
using
sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1
divide through by cos^2(x)
tan^2(x) + 1 = sec^2(x)
using that you can rewrite 2sec^2(x)
so
2(tan^2(x) + 1) + tan^2(x) -3 = 0
and then just re-arrange so
3tan^2(x) = 1
tan^2(x) = 1/3
tan(x) = sqrt(1/3)
and then so on

I tried doing the multiplication rule: (5)(6)(8)(7) = 1680
but the answer key says 1736
ok let's view the bottlenecks first:
The last one has 5 possible values
The first one has 7 possible values
Second and third have 10 possible values
so we'll regard the last one first, as it's the most critical bottleneck
so we can definitely multiply our option count for the first three letters by multiplying by 5 for the last letter
now we'll consider the second bottleneck, the first letter
since for the last letter we chose from among 1, 3, 5, 7, 9
since 1 < 3
and 3, 5, 7, 9 >= 3
we have different cases depending on what we chose for the last
if we chose 1 for the last, then we have 7 options for the first
if we chose 3, 5, 7, 9 for the last, then we have 6 options for the first
so we can start splitting:
5 * [options first three letters] = 1 * 7 * [options for 2nd & 3rd] + 4 * 6 * [options for 2nd & 3rd]
the options for 2nd and 3rd aren't influenced by our choices for first or last, so for them we just have 8 possible values for one of them and 7 for the other:
= 1 * 7 * 8 * 7 + 4 * 6 * 8 * 7
@nova crater
oh oops I did even for the last
ok corrected
in short: our choice for the last letter influences the choices for the first :) (that's why we need case splitting)

Yo can I get help
yo
show us the question bruh
square fence
lol
each side is the same length
10
bro its class 5 problems
x^2
ah
What
sqrt(100) ig
area of sq = l^2
What is this
100 = l^2
l= 10
which grade r u in?
how in gods name are you in pre uni class 😭
No dw I have seen college students who do worse
Bc i didn think it this
Just ask anyone else in my microeconomics class
The idea of triangles is foreign to fellow business majors
Yessir bro
That's also not an excuse to kinda overlook this kinda stuff though lol. Make sure you understand the formulas
hm
area of sphere
4 pi r^2
Wise words
just understand math
Ye
If you were to wrap a ball in wrapping paper
You're gonna need to cover the sphere
Aka the outside of the ball
Mhm
So just the skin of the ball in a sense, which is legit just the surface
So you'll need the surface area of the ball
u got some nice teachers
Well I mean like what are you measuring
Tape
how much acres is meter?
1 acre = 4046 m^2
How you get that
Idk how you did that but I’m impressed
breadth given is 160 ft = 49m
So it’s squared….?
l *49=5341
SA???
l= 109 m = 358 ft
R u solving the problem
Wait how I check
ask ur friend or sth
Bromie…I’m sorry for making you do kinda ish pointless work but I just needed the formula
But the work
Was real impressed tho
A++

Tadowwww
any more questions?
Is this one V=lwh
@torn jolt you here…?
Yo??
Ima call for another helper sir
Sorry
But thanks for the help bro

how do I solve this
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
well
I was thinking of plugging all the input values
and creating a system of eqn
but it seems too lengthy and I don’t think that’s the correct way to solve it
oh
On the right side try getting the same denominator as that on the left side
The terms A,B,C and D are all independent of x, so you can substitute suitable values of x in the numerator terms to get the values of those 4
If you've done partial fractions before this would be familiar to you
So I can plug in any values of x?? @open igloo
Yup
Also after getting the same denominator on the right, the new numerator is still p(x) and some of the values for p(x) have been given
so in order to find d, would I still need to find a,b and c
Idts
Try substituting values of x for which all the other terms become 0 in the numerator
Ok so for now
Except the one you want to find
p(1) isn't 0 tho, x-1=0 on substituting x=1, I think that's what you meant?
Yes

How do I solve this?
I know the answer but I'm not sure how to get to it
Can you write out the third term? You will need an n choose 2
should be n choose 2
Yeah ahhh that makes it so much easier
Im confused what do you mean choose?
$n \choose 2$
Herels
Maybe this is some other method of solving
I haven't seen this, shouldn't it be like this?
C_n^k is the same as n choose k
Yeah so you need the ratio of these two
You should write out the third term (n = 2) and the second term n = 1
And then simplify the ratio down using algebra
Also note that n choose 2 = n (n - 1)/2
Herels
It follows from the definition, $\frac{n!}{2! (n - 2)!}$
south
Expand n! and terms cancel
Yeah but apparently I'm supposed to obtain this somehow
Step by step: you won't understand anything if you keep rushing and looking at the solution when you didn't write anything down yet
This is the expression for the 3rd term, n = 2
Can you write out the expression for the 2nd term, n = 1?
$${n \choose 1} (\sqrt{2})^{n-1} (2\sqrt{3})$$
Herels
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
he just asked me the second term, not the answer
Still you're not helping them by doing key steps for them
Instead of letting the person try things out themselves
there's nothing about steps if i'm just applying the same formula he sent himself (?)
.
They need to be able to apply the formula
Not just memorise it
Applying formulas might seem easy to you but they seem to be lacking in that skill
So they need practice
I've done this for both the second and the third term
I don't know what to do next
the ratio of the third term to the second term is 5sqrt6
Yeah I get that
But what do I do next 😭
how
third term / 2nd term = 5sqrt6
if i still know about ratio
first :
$$\frac{{n \choose 2}}{{n \choose 1}} = \frac{\frac{n!}{2(n-2)!}}{\frac{n!}{(n-1)!}} = \frac{(n-1)!}{2(n-2)!} = \frac{n-1}{2}$$
Herels
second :
$$\frac{12\sqrt{2^{n-2}}}{2\sqrt{3} \sqrt{2^{n-1}}} = \frac{6}{2\sqrt{3}} \times \sqrt{2^{n-2-n+1}} = \sqrt{3} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$$
Herels
at the end we have :
$$\frac{\sqrt{3} (n-1)}{2\sqrt{2}} =5 \sqrt{6}$$
Herels
@prisma bear welp you didn't know how to do it
Well this gives n=21 but the answer is n=11

Hello! I’m having an issue regarding hookes law in my calculus 2 class, here is the question for reference, when I solve this I get to 1000(0.18^2 x 0.08^2) getting 26J but the answer was 50? Am I doing this wrong or is the answer wrong?
that seems about right to me
Is this answer incorrect then? This was my professors solution I’m assuming he just rushed it and got it wrong?
the solution is ignoring that the natural length is 12
the extensions arent .3 and .2
rather 0.18 and 0.08
fix that and it would be fine
x is extension, not just the spring length, thats their error
Yeah that’s what I thought, thank you! Got a final test tommorrow so this feels good that I got it right

Hi! In my Calculus 2 class improper integrals are solved in this way. In this picture, this integral is defined in (-1, 1) and my teacher chooses an arbitrary x_0 (in this case, 0) and calculates the two limits approaching the bounds. How should i choose the arbitrary x_0? In this example its easy, but what should be my reasoning in regards to chosing the x_0? Thanks!
the choice is arbitrary since the function is continuous between -1 and 1, so the integration will work.
So the it comes down to choosing the easiest number to work with.
which is usually 0
So any number in the interval will do?
yep.
could use 0.2
Oh
just an odd choice

Hi! So I have an exam on limits tomorrow, and I'm going pretty well with it. However, there is one type of them that is making me struggle a bit. It's this one:
I figured out I had to equal it to e, but to do so I'm resting 1 to that 2 and adding 1 at the end inside the parenthesis so the result does not change
However I can't think of a way ti make the division positive
what u do is say x/(x + 1) = (x + 1 - 1)/(x + 1) = 1 - 1/(x + 1)
that’s where the positive comes from
do u agree that x is equal to x + 1 - 1
Yes
is there a part of this line of reasoning that doesn’t make sense
no but where I'm doing that is outside the division
like rest 1 to everything and then adding it again
The division remains the same, but its still negative and idk how to make it positive
well u do basically the same thing
u rewrite 1 as (x + 1)/(x + 1)
oh I think I see the mistake
so after that I should have [1 - (x+x+1)/(x+1)]^x
This is how I made the whole exercise
no you should have a configuration where the x terms in the numerator cancel
I can't find how then
I need the 2 to become a 1 but if I rest 1 then I have to add one and that's what I get everytime I try
2 - x/(x + 1) becomes 2 - 1 + 1 - x/(x + 1)
(you wrote something down similar to this so i assume this step makes sense)
now, what you do is rewrite the + 1 as (x + 1)/(x + 1)
then, the expression is 2 - 1 + (x + 1)/(x + 1) - x/(x + 1)
which is 2 - 1 + (x + 1 - x)/(x + 1)
or 1 + 1/(x + 1)
ah
yep that makes sense
seems like I was forgetting the - when introducing the +1 into the division
thank you

im not sure why my answer is wrong
did you actually perform an integration?
show your work
k hold on
i havent learned taylor series yet
ive only done geometric series
like power series
but you got this from somewhere:
and then it becomes this because of geometric series?
1/(1+x) and ln(1+x) are not the same thing
1/(1+x) is the derivative of ln(1+x)
how would i solve it then?
you can write more compactly as $$\ln(1+x) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty (-1)^{n+1}\frac{x^n}{n}$$
Bungo
so would i do the same process i did but with that series instead?
yes
okay
lemme work that out
so
after integrating does n become = to 1 for the series or does it remain 0? @stiff musk
i was told when taking the derivative it changes to 1 but im not sure about integration
it becomes 1 when taking derivative because the n=0 term of the original series is constant, so the derivative of the n=0 term is zero
for integrating you don't lose an n
oh okay
i got
C+ the series from n=1 to infinity of (-1)^n * (x^(n+2))/(n-1)(n+2)
is that right @stiff musk

@wanton sun Has your question been resolved?
diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors i think
so m<ptq is 90
@wanton sun
What about the rest of them
you can figure them out with basic algebra
all the side legnths are equal because it's a rhombus
no
it is 62
angles in a triangle sum to 180
so 90 + 28 + x = 180
118 + x = 180
x = 180 - 118
x = 62
all the sides are 18 because the definition of a rhombus is a quadrilateral with 4 equal sides
Is m<srq gonna be 62 also
So is m<tqp 62 since its just a half?
yes
For number 2 is m<cra 90
yes
Is m<cat 90
yes
np
its the only thing i can help with ngl
im too dumb for any of this other stuff

When does a limit not exist?
For a does it not exist since as the limit approaches -1 the graph approaches the whole at 1 and the point at -2?
It's approaching the whole and the point on the graph at the same time for question a so does that limit not exist?
a limit does not exist when it approaches different values from the left and from the right
Ohhh interesting
Have not heard that before
But they do exist when you specify what direction the limit is approaching from, correct?
yes
Okay
as long as there is actually something on that side
So the the limit for a. would not exist?
yep
Same with b?
B is approaching a hole and a point at the same time
But it's the same for each direction of the limit
it doesn’t matter where f(1) actually is, just look at the function when it is close to 1
so the limit would exist because you approach the same value from the left and from the right
What value are we approaching though?
Wouldn't it be approaching 1 and -1 simultaneously? @pallid coral
what do you mean by approaching
Like as x approaches 1
The graph approaches 1 and -1
the limit does not care about the f(1), but rather f(x) when x is really close to 1
OHHHH
Interestinggg
So interesting okay
That helps a lot thank you

(12th grade, Prob. And Stats. Geometric distributions. Just wanting some explanation here. Why exactly does it come out with one? I'd expect zero? is the lesson saying that it cannot use that value because a probability of 1 is incorrect? or some other reason.
Why would you expect 0?
I mean algebraically it comes out to 1.
yeah
but, why does it come out as one instead of zero? I know that zero behaves weirdly. (obviously. It doesn't exist!)
but if this formula calculates the geometric probability, why can't it handle zero?
I mean, you could edit the formula so that it excludes zero, i think, but i guess that's just uneccessary at this level of math? (would be more useful in a coding application.)
What does that variable respresent?
If it were 1, 2, 3, etc. What is that variable representing?
number of trials before expecting a success.
hold on i was gonna post the reference formula.
Not sure haven't taken this class yet 😂
Just saw the algebra and how it comes out to 0
Oh
Okay, but why would that be different than a binomial distribution?
Because the binomial distribution can do it just fine.
if you do zero trials, you get an output of zero.
and not one
No problem! thanks for trying.
Good luck though
I needed to post this info anyways lol
double checking this btw
k is number of trials, p is probability
binomial distribution
okay so i think i figured it out. Because a factorial of zero (required in binomial distribution.) results in one (weird af...), and the p(k) (k=0) is still 1, but you're subtracting 1. it all comes out to 0? So eli might have had the right answer, it doesn't produce a valid answer with Geometric because i'm drawing a sample of zero, a binomial distribution is actually in a way worse because i can't have a sample of zero, but i CAN choose 0 of a sample
Is this correct?
i think this confirms it. (Geometric)
could i get some confirmation on that?
@torn jolt Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> been 30 mins, just need a quick confirmation to make sure I understand the topic.
ah. it's not incorrect at all with binomial. It's spot on. the function DOES work with 0. That's why I needed confirmation. Because when you have nCk, the chances of you not getting a success from a population of 0 is 100%, or 1. However, in geometric, it doesn't actually work

help
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
Note that if you divide the zeros of the function by 2 it will give you the maximum and minimum function.
It is always so?
x = -pi/3 , 0 , pi/3 are zeros
but if you divide to 2
you get maximum and minimum
since -1<= sin(3x+pi) <=1, you can get -5 and 5 as the minimum and maximum
is -pi/6 and pi/6
yeah those are possible points
how
wdym how
hmm
so normally sin has a period of 2pi right
but since we have sin(3x+pi) the period would be 2pi/3
the possible x coordinates for the minimum would be -pi/6 + 2kpi/3 for k integer, and the maximum would be pi/6 + 2kpi/3 for k integer

I'm having some trouble making up a function that fits my data. I am writing code where the variable T starts at 10, and decreases to 0.1. Close to 0, it decreases rapidly, and close to 0.1 it decreases slowly. So in a sample size of 10 it should look something like:
10, 6, 4, 3, 1.4, 0.7, 0.4, 0.2, 0.12
I have been thinking for quite a while but I'm stuck
this is my best answer but because it is defined recursively, the only time both sides of the equation are satisfied is at exactly 1 point (so T doesn't change as it should)
@late storm Has your question been resolved?
so the difference
of the that sequence is what
how does it decrease
any reference
@late storm
I am basically running a loop for 1 million iterations
and T needs to go from 10 to 0.1
I dont have any other reference
I need to make up a function that fits this
@uneven ingot
okay
1 million iteration
you can use for I in range
and if the number gets to a point
u can minus it by smaller number
that's one logic u could use

trying to find the cricial points of this
I found the derivative to be 2sin(x) - 1
the points I found are 0, pi/6, and 2pi
There is a fourth point but I can't figure out how I am supposed to find it
solve 2sin(x) - 1 = 0
i deleted one wrong message
oh that was someone else who did it a second ago
nvm
anyways, i solved it and i got pi/6
how is there two solutions?
there's a solution in the 2nd quadrant
oh
yeah s
yeah so
0 1 2 3 4 3 2 1
0 30 45 60 90 135 150 180
so its
180 degrees
no
see how i did this
sin goes in pattern
0 1 2 3 4 3 2 1 0 -1 -2 -3 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 3 2 1 0 etc
square root of that divided by 2
eh its stupid though
is there a better way?

Does this proof seem correct?
I think so. Since the bisector of AC guarantees that the angles are equal. Since the angles are equal and the lengths BA and AD are equal, respectively, the distance from C to B and D are also equal. So we get that CD=CB, <1=<2, <3=<4 => triangle ABC is equal to triangle ADC.

How do you show that the integral goes to infinity?
cos(0)/0 = 1/0 so you know this is an improper integral, at least
probably l'hopital and FToC
yeaah, but like, I need to have a infinity/infinity-expression before I use L'hopital
change x to dividing by 1/x
So just because the integrand is that, it must be improper?
ye
But I get what you're saying - integral might still be finite. How do we prove it isn't?
FToC
There's no need to take the derivative at all if the integral is finite
yeah exactly
Yup, but how can I take the derivative (from l'hopital) without first proving that we have an 0/0 or inf/inf expression?
Ah wait
standard improper integral methods don't work? (honest question, i haven't thought too much about it)
$\frac{\cos x}{x^2} \leq \frac{1}{x^2}$, and since $\int_0^1 \frac 1{x^2}$ diverges, the one with cos must also diverge. Isn't that enough to argue that the integral approaches infinity?
Michael
Not sure myself
you need the integrand to be smaller than cos(x)/x^2, which you can still find. it'd just be a constant multiple of 1/x^2
note that cos(x) is decreasing on the interval (0,1), so cos(1) < cos(x) for all x in (0,1)
Have you worked with non elementals integrals before? Like sinx/x
Ah yes, right, and then since the integral of cos1/x^2 diverges, cosx/x^2 must also diverge
Hmm no, don't think I have
Fair enough
or what does it mean that it is "non elemental"?
Have never heard of that term at least
Ah right, yes, I have worked with improper integrals
So IBP
u=cosx; v=1/x^2
You end up with -cosx/x - integral of sinx/x
With t variable sorry
Oh alright
-cos(t)… etc
yeah no worries
Now the second integral is Si(t)
Oh um, well that I haven't worked with before, no...
So u have [-cos(t)-Si(t)] from 0 to 1
Aren't improper integrals just that they approach infinity/aren't defined?
Non-elementary was the name
Oh okay, well in that case. No, haven't worked with them (except when differentiating the integral containing those functions)
If you want you can study that and then calculate the limit with this
$\int_{a}^{b} f(x) , dx = F(b) - F(a) = \lim_{x \to b^-} F(x) - \lim_{x \to a^+} F(x)$
Wait
Yep, I can take a look at it
honestly we can just use lhopital’s rule
since the integral diverges to infinity
and if we change x to divided by 1/x
then we’ll have infinity over infinity
alright
Mercurial
But thanks still!
No problem, this one takes a bit for me to write here, but this was the main idea
No worries 👍 But alright, I see!
I'll take a closer look at these non-elementary integrals, so I can probably try to do both methods
Was it anything more you wanted to include, or shall I now close the chat?
You can close, cause i have a lot to say about this and i dont think is the moment to do

any ideas ?
ive found the slope of the rad
idk what to do next
i have a slope and a center
and need to find x and y values
Ma’am let me ask my sir @quaint prawn.
equatuon of slope =【 √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²】
so u just open the quadratic then you will get the equation of a circle
thats the distance formula
slope is
y2-y1/x2-x1
opp sorry
but your circle radius must be same right?
so u just find the shortest distance between the tangent and the centre of circle
radius is unknown
use formular( ︳ax+by+c︳)÷(√a²+b²)
it can help u to find the shortest distance between the circle and tangent and your ans is radius
then use the distance formula ,your ans is here
so from the prep distance and the center we find the eq ?
yep

What is a partition of a group??
this is all the info about this we were given
When I think partition, I think parts of something
so I mean, yes cosets of H are clearly parts of G, but is that it
?
like cosets of H are just elements of G composed with elements of H ( which are from G )
I'll start with a picture
and so it'll still be within G, since G is closed under compsoition
okay
let's say there's 3 cosets of H in G
hm
saying that "the cosets of H partition G" means that
- the cosets have no elements in common
- the union of all the cosets covers all of G (or in other words, everything in G belongs to a coset)
here we're talking about cosets of a subgroup, but partitions are also a thing just w/ plain sets
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_of_a_set for reference
In mathematics, a partition of a set is a grouping of its elements into non-empty subsets, in such a way that every element is included in exactly one subset.
Every equivalence relation on a set defines a partition of this set, and every partition defines an equivalence relation. A set equipped with an equivalence relation or a partition is some...
