its a right triangle
so <1 and 27 some to 90
sum*
and then the angle next to 70 is 110
soo just use triangle angle sum th to find angle 2
yep

Can someone assist me with this?
I know that the normal vector is [-2 1 -3]
If we let u = [-4 3 0 ]^T
Is the projection of u onto the plane, the perpendicular of the projection of u onto n?
i can help in 3 min
ok
Let's say P is the vector we want to project onto the given plane whose normal is n
Do you agree that P·n gives the magnitude of the component of P that is parallel to n?
I already know how projection and perpendicular works.
just follow along
ok...
I ask if you agree so u can follow the logic, im not insulting ur intellegence
so I can see if you agree with every step of the logic
so do you agree with this?
sure
ok, so do you also agree that the vector component of P that is along n is therefore given by (P·n)n ?
since it literally is just (the parallel component)n
yes
ok, do you also agree that P can be written as the sum of the parallel and perpendicular components? so that
P = (perp) + (prll)
we already know what the perpendicular component is, that is just (P·n)n
so we have
P = (P·n)n + (prll)
we also know that the parrallel componnent is just the component of P that is on the surface of the plane
therefore we want to find the parallel component, let's call it P' p prime
so we have
P = (P·n)n + P'
solving for P' we get
P'=P-(P·n)n
which gives the component of P on the surface of the plane
do you agree?
yes
nice
did that make sense tho? plz let me know if there was something that didnt make sense
yes, it makes sense.
oki doki then, I hope it was helpful :>
plz lmk know if u need help with anything else
u basically just explained this then?
ye
well ehh the wording is weird
cause
if u already get the projection of u onto n
it doesnt have any perpendicular component
by like definition
if u do a dot product, ur just asking urself how much of the vector u points towards n
this by definition, doesnt have a perpendicular component
the projection of u onto the plane is just the perpendicular component of u
ah okay
if there is still something weird or hazzy plz lmk
nope, thank you so much!

gotchu man
that answers my question perfectly, again sorry for asking it so poorly
the exam should be ez
yea yea ofc i'm going through that rn too
dang bro that's why ur kinda late
i did that exam like last week
we had it yesterday
truth be told i fucking overslept
i planned on going
felt really shitty
i am not a good student but i am trying to get better
no no
i can just redo it
some other date
ur in us?
aight
u do that in uni???
but really interesting program
yes for the first year we only do basic math
some others
did it when they were in highschool
ahhh okok cuz i'm in college
anyways i got econ test tmrw bro
aight thanks for helping again

i know e^(pi * i) = -1, but is there a solution for e^(x*i) = -1 in degrees?
pi radians = 180 degrees
right, but im entering e^180*i into my calculator (which is in degree mode) and it's giving me a domain error. If i put my calculator into raidan mode and do e^(pi)(i), i get -1
e^(i*pi) would give you -1 even in degree mode
e^(xi) assumes input is in degree
why is my calculator being mean then?
changing calculator to degrees just changes the usual trig functions to have the input in degrees ig

I need some help
I don't understand how to do this slope
could someone explain it easier to me?
and then give me a question to try and solve
yes
Suppose every month I put in £1. Then a = t, where a is the money in my account, and t is the month.
Suppose, instead, I put £200 in every month What do you think the equation would be then?
1/200
well, how much money would I have in the account after t months?
I put £200 in every month. So, how much have I put in after 1 month?

i have tried to prove that q - the root of 2 is irrational with no success
a hint will be much appreciated
Contradiction?
nvm
y
I was going to do something else
And I realized I was using the property that you're proving
What properties have you established so far
i proved (in the same way) that root 2 is irrational...
but doing so for q - root2 is where im stuck rn
Someone else is already using this help channel. If you need help with a question, please open your own help channel/thread (see #❓how-to-get-help for instructions).
why spamming my chat
u did this earlier now you doing it again
anyways,
please help me to prove it
i was trying to do it by contradiction with no success so far
a hint will be much appreciated
Suppose then by absurd 2-sqrt2 is rational, find out what it means about sqrt2
did it, i infer that p^2/m^2 - sqrtq - 2 (the rhs) is even
wdym absurd, i proved that sqrt2 is irrational but how does it help here?
from here, just move q to the other side. what does that mean about sqrt(2)?

can anyone explain how rk4 (runge-kutta method) works? i get that given a differential equation and initial conditions (x,y), i can get the original function more accurately than euler's method
more particularly, what i dont understand is the notion of getting h2 and h3
i get that h2 and h3 are taken from (x+h/2) where h is the step size
so instead of stepping all the way to h from x, i want to go halfway because the gradient has not changed much and is effectively still a "tangent" (sort of) to the original x
but i dont get how numerically h2 and h3 would be different values
becuase from what ive read, the final coordinate is
yn+1 = yn + h(h1 + 2(h2 + h3) + h4)/6
i also dont quite underestand how this comes to be
also, as an addendum, could anyone explain symplectic integrators like im 5? i would like to know about what it is and how it works

how to integerate this ? (left side)
Correction: its 2-v^2
Is that an a or something else for the denominator's coefficient of v^2?
its 4
idk if this is better
now there is even a square in the numerator
the denominator doesnt seem to have the ability to be factored so i dont think partial fractions will work and 95% of the time thats the only method for integrating stuff like this
the professor told us its extremly easy but looks like something is wrong
can you show the steps you did to get to this integral? i feel like it might not be correct in the first place
im assuming you were solving a separable differential equation since there were 2 variables right?
ok great thanks
i havent changed the order of the denominator so it looks a bit different but it's the same
i have shortened alot of steps, but this is like the direct answer
v = (y/x) incase its not clear
if v = y/x i feel like something went wrong when substituting in v
sorry if its a stupid question but why did the x^2 dissappear?
Because that is the method of the homogenous equations
we divide each with the highest power of x
so we can get v = (y/x)
However there are alot of methods, im using this one, if someone could solve it with any way i will really appreciate it
Or like someone can integerate this
shouldnt it atleast be replaced with a y^2 / v^2 instead od being removed entirely?
(the x^2)
wait
i get it nvm
you divided the numerstor and denominator by x^2 mb
and in line3 whered you get -2v + v^3 from?
Ah my answer wasnt in details
but the main question is about the integeral
anyway its an equation
v = (y/x)
y' = xv' + v
i do it directly without substituting since im used to it
yes i know its just that the integral seems oddly difficult so im trying to see if its correct
Mb try to solve it with another way
wait if
v = y/x
then
y = vx
and since y is a function of x
wouldnt y' just be v?
its a homogenous equation
y = vx
y' = v + xv'
wait right v = y/x
i treated it as a constant mb
anyways i dont think the method of integrating factor would work here since we cant isolate a function of purely x, y, and dy/dx each alone
so lets keep going with your method
@swift tusk Has your question been resolved?
Not yet
@swift tusk Has your question been resolved?
Are you sure this is the right one?
,w dy/dx = (3x^2+4y^2)/(2x^2-y^2)
How could you verify?
because it gave us some values
and its just a homogenous DE without values so its immposible to get numbers like this one without an initial condition/value
i want to solve this with homogenous
i mean technically its homogenous so there is no other way to solve it
,w Integrate[(-u^2+2)/(u^3+4u^2-2u+3),u]
ok the antiderivative doesn't seem impossible
yea i wrote a - instead of + at some point
the professor told us its extremly easy
canon event
i mean i dont think this is bachelor level solution
it looks like some master degree shit or something
im not even math major
im an engineer so 😅
so you could use approximations
However this looks super complex ngl
well this is anti-derivative
there are no values
so kinda it wont work here well
I just feel you either wrote it down wrong or only God knows what your professor thought
this is directly from him soo
and i even tried it 30 times
i tried 4 different methods and i kept getting the same ending-integeral

I need help solving this differential equation
so far ive solved the homogenous, but im not really sure how to continue with variation of parameters
are you required to use variation of parameters? this seems well-suited for undetermined coefficients
ok. so do you have the formula for variation of parameters?
y particular = u1 y1 + u2 y2?
y1 = exp(2x)
y2 = exp(-x)
iirc i can get one of the equations for u1 u2 by differentiating twice and plugging back in, but im not sure how to get the other equation needed to solve for the two unknowns
we also require u1' y1 + u2' y2 = 0
is that just supposed to be a boundary condition or some kind of assumption?
can that be assumed for all questions related to variation of parameters
that's an assumption we always make for variation of parameters, because it makes the subsequent equation solving simpler
seems fine (although for this problem we are using t as the independent variable)
oh yeah sorry, i usually just turn everything into x and switch it back at the end because im comfortable that way

Can someone explain this to me bc I'm confused. The answer is correct however I don't understand it
I know even is f(-x)=f(x)
And odd is f(-x)=-f(x)
Is all I'm doing like making h(x) into h(-x) and making all my x variables a (-)? So like 1/-x+3? But why does that become -1/x+3 i feel kinda slow.
this comes from "plugging in -x"
if you do h(2) for example, you replace every x with 2
so to do h(-x), you replace every x with -x
this shows that h(-x) is -1/x + 3
the two steps below that are separate, this is just algebra to show what -h(x) would be
comparing h(-x) = -1/x + 3 and -h(x) = -1/x - 3, you can see they dont really match to fit an even or odd function
Oh so does the 1/x become -1/x rather than just the denominator x

make an equation for the area of the rectangle then take the derivative and find maximum from stationary points
Im stuck on finding the maximum x valur
I already found an equation for the area and the derivative
set the derivative to zero
to find stationary point
then prove max/min using second derivative test
k
Yea
if this derivative is correcct
then just solve it
,w find all real x 8cos(x/2) - 4xsin(x/2) = 0 x is between -pi and pi
what the hell is that solution
So during a test with graphing calculator, do I just plug in that equation into the calculator and approximate the zero

its under area of a triangle
the 1/2abSinC
i got an answer of 35.2 but i doubt its correct
,w calc 60.5(3.2)^2*sqrt(3)/2
can we see your working
my answer is very wrong
the formula works
i didnt rlly know hoq to do it
well you do know that all the triangles are equilateral
do you know what a b and C represent
can u show me pls
3
and both a and b are 3.2 in this case
ohhh yh cz they the same length
yep
so 1/2x3.2x3.2xSin60
yeah that's one triangle
is that correct

Hi! for this problem, it’s asking me the value for the series at the top of the page
Not only can I not figure out the value, but I got contradictory results trying to figure out its convergence
@slate pendant Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
Why diverge ?
I thought I could separate the sum
in two terms
and the first term diverges because the limit of the argument is not 0
it’s a necessary condition for a convergent infinite sum
what's the condition for separating a sum?
oh it had to be a sum right?
not a difference
lol I see it now
got it
still, how would you go about calculating a value?
was I on the right path turning the numerator to 1?
no, not that
oh…
both the splitted sums must converge
here, since both diverges to infinity, you can't really make any claims about its convergence
take for example $\sum_{n=0}^\infty (n-n)$
Sepdron
I see
it obviously is 0, but if you split it into the sum of n, then yea you get my point
ohhh
I thought that for a series to converge its split sums had to converge as well
yea because both diverges here, it's not true
if only one of them diverges though, (I think) you would be able to conclude that the original series diverges
in your case, both of the split sums diverges
and what about your example (n-n)
you could say both diverge there too
but the sum converges
yea, it'd be $\sum_{n=0}^\infty n - \sum_{n=0}^\infty n$
Sepdron
if both diverges, we can't say anything about the original sum
yup
awesome
such a weird question to put on a test
thank you so much you really helped me out tonight
np, your original sum probably converges btw
by the first test, it shows that it converges
yea I'm pretty sure I have no idea on how to approach this lol

can anybody explain to me how it got the the final answer?
do you know what is quotient rule?
yep
tell me its basic outline?
Ngl love it being defined like that imma use it
You are forgetting a sign here tho
oh yeah -
so (h high l low)
h'l-l'h/l^2
ok what about the answer that bothers you ?
Some algebra simplification
(3+4w^3)(2w^2+1)=
8w^5+4w^3+6w^2+3
(3w+w^4)(4w)
12w^2+4w^5 (all negative)
And then you can simplify it
If a step doesn’t look obvious I can explain it
Open the brackets and many stuff get cancelled out
I'll give step by step in like 2 hours if u want
Cuz I'm out rn
ok so you multiply the parantheses ang get those
but is still have no cue on how you get to
sorry if i took too long to reply i tried answering it in my scratch
ok so for the first 2 brackets
you can write it as
3(2w^+1)+4w^3(2w^2+1) you know how simplify this algebraically ?
nope
Well it’s ok
you ever took exponent rules ?
yes?
Like the algebra one not the one for the derivatives
then no
Like for example
4w^3*2w^2 using the rules above it equals (4)(2)(w^3)(w^2)=8(w^(3+2))=8w^5
So can you use those rule to simplify this expression

you now know from a (ii) that y = ln(x)/ln(a)
should be pretty easy knowing the derivative of ln
(beware: ln(a) is constant)
@neat terrace Has your question been resolved?

Ohhhh
Lna goes to 0 innit
Ahhhh
No
Wait
Why is it when I use quotient
Idk if I can read my writing

what is the logic behind this
I have a guess but I do not know if I am right
my guess is that we're using this formula, to reach that other formula
@silent plover Has your question been resolved?
yes that fomula is used
basically cos(x-y) = cos(x)cos(y) + sin(x)sin(y)
and we use this formula a bunch of times for different angles phi
when we reach this
we just take x = pi/2 - alpha, y = beta
then it's cos(x-y)
formula applies
yeah.

anyone who can help me with my questions about algebra and geometry? im in 10th grade (almost 16) and i really dont know how to do algebra and im bad with geometry.
Just ask your questions (one at a time, preferably)
i dont know how to do stuff like a(x + 7) = 2x = 22
stuff like that
or similarly
basically anything in algebra and geometry im unable to do.
if you need math teacher i am here
you know what
if you are crap at algebra
you can buy this book
it is really good
but you can ask me questions too
is like
algebra and geometry very important for coding
no actually, it's useful for other things though
not at all
you serious?
they are tho bruh
but i thought variables ARE algebra though, well
i guess variables are
kinda easy
having good math capacities are very important for programming
but what else would be used in coding
it is mostly logic
but some math principles can be important
what if one were to use chat gpt, i personally dont want to use an AI for math, i wanna have intellegence.
then learn your algebra ?
i dont understand what your question is
thats my main problem tho
i dont know where to learn algebra other than youtube and books, and books cost money which i do not have. 🤷♂️
and youtube is also kinda dumb most of the time.
I failed a lot during my journey to big tech. My journey starting in Learning Support, and was daunting the whole way through.

can your parents afford you a book ?
found the video I was looking for!
are you even at school ?
then focus on your studies at school bruv
thats what i try to do
watching youtube aint gon help
it might if YT teaches better than school
well i mean
nah it doesnt
you can't say that for 100% of students
no$
there are genuinely some shit education systems
I don't know if that's true for them but just raising the possibility
what country are you from ?
usa
have you tried Khan Academy?
the algebra i made for myself was: 4x + 2 = 14.
but i solved it to be 3
is that correct?
no
then try it
yep, subtract 2 from both sides, 4x = 12
divide both sides by 4, x = 3
yh youre gonna get good classes then
the usa doesn't have a good education system
IT DOES STFU
you can practice this concept in the link I sent
stop looking for excuses
well I mean education varies so much in the 50 states
it really doesn't
if you aint getting good results you just aint working enough
you're not helping by constantly denying what they say
i've learned more off the yt video i watched in 2 minutes then i had in an entire class of algebra
great! basically you just needed some direction right
yeah
that is impossible.
keep sticking with Khan Academy, for the quizzes
the material is everywhere, from YT to textbooks ofc
never underestimate a good textbook like Axler's precalculus
my hearing is bad, they are slow in teaching, and i have adhd so im getting distracted.
maybe that's a bit advanced for you rn but just saying
there it goes
if your hearing's bad go to the front row
these are genuine things im diagnosed with (the slow teaching is a school problem)
if your teacher is slow he prob isnt
if you wanna be rude and not really help me you can leave, south is being kind enough to help me out without being rude.
look
im a slow learner and not very smart in school and i dont do good under pressure.
saying your teacher is bad aint a solution
my teacher isn't bad
its just that they dont teach fast enough to keep my adhd on track
and saying you aint smart either
all i can say is if you wanna learn with something else at least do it with a book
not with the internet
I agree intelligence isn't fixed but like they're just being honest with their situation right now
i do wanna get programs
that block certain apps at certain times
so i can jUST focus on school
oh
i really just want to better myself
i can give you some
what're some
a sec
alr
BlockSite allows you to block any website for any period of time. Remove distractions, block adult content, and customize your browsing environment.
here
also
you can ask your parents to set a parental control
i did that on my phone last year and gyat damn my results are high
i dont like trusting my parents sometimes tho, sometimes they set it WAAAY too long, like 12-14 hours of studying lmao
uh
no i mean like having 1-2 hours of screen time is more than enough
exactly
i even got half an hour on my phone lol
its just 12-14 hours prevents breaks mostly
they give you 12 hours screen time ?
but how much screen time for ytb discord and shi do they give you
oh thats a bit too much
honestly i agree atp
i play too many games and i just want to be able to improve my life
i really agree with that
oh i fully understand
also
from experience if you have a full weekend of free time dont study for a day straight
especially if you have adhd
take like between 2 and 4 hours of time where you do smth else (but no screens)
so like, study for 2 hours, take a break, and repeat?
for example my typical study day is 10 - 12h30 study then lunch then at 15 i go skating till 17
nah
do breaks every 45 minutes
alr
but for the breaks dont only stay at home
you can do outside activities
if you take an hour break
like skating
or idk if you play an instrument do some for 1 hour
alr bet
what if i wanna like
take walks and stuff outside
is that good?
like nice fresh air for a break.
yess thats perfect
you can take 1 hour to go outside when you're feeling overwhelmed
bet
this is alot help, thank you @faint karma @slate violet
its really nice to know people out there can help you advance yourself.
yep
honestly i was in the same situation as you last year
i really wanted to get good at school
fr?
so yh i started taking the good habits for studying and stuff
are you like a pro at it now?
well i got pretty efficient
thats really cool, do you think i'll advance to that level?
since im in 10th grade and im still pretty slow on algebra and bad with geometry
you gotta really set your objectives
if you have clear objectives you can accomplish them
alr bet
but you'll really have to do everything to reach them
so if it means for example lowering your screen time and stuff you gto
alr, well before i continue studying my math
maybe i should go outside
and just get some air
thank you guys so so so much for the help
also how do i close the help thing, i dont wanna occupy it forever lol
you can add me so i can help you if you need anything

Does anyone have a trick for understanding discrete mathematics?
I read this as:
'For every x, if D(x) OR B(x) is TRUE THEN C(x)'
I saw Ann has neither B(x) nor D(x) as true, and therefore selected she's a proof why it's false
Or does anyone know a good course for studying discrete mathematics?
The easiest answer is to just see the pattern in what is correct and replicate it 'If C(x) is wrong it's a counter-example' like in this new one
but it seems kinda hard to properly understand if I'm wrong?
I guess I'm wondering if my interpretation is correct, or if anyone has good resources for learning this stuff.. Khan academy doesnt have a discrete math course, neither does brilliant

Anyone have any ideas how to solve this ??
take the derivative
L'opital
we can use small angle approximation
but you have to use quotient rule right and that just further complicates everything
They meant l'opital
the value will be equal to the limit of sin(pi(1-x^2))/x^2 = lim sin(pix^2)/x^2 = pi
but you are taking derivitive with lopital and since the division is there you have to use quotient rule
Are you aware of how to use l'opital
if there is indetermined form you take derivitive of the limit???
No,only when it's a 0/0 form
from where?
this
i think i did wrong
nvm
1-sin^2x
sin x = x for x tending to zero
@dire grove
but is there any proof for that?
I think you can also use the squeeze theorem
never heard of it
ya from taylor series
sin x = x - (x^3)/3! + (x^5)/5! and so on
so limit of (sinx)/x at x->0 is 1
Sorry I thought it was lim x->inf u can't use it here

Hi , i'm struggling woth 9b) , sorry it's in french 😭
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
what's the result of II
$\hat{f}(k)=\frac{1}{n} \sum^{n-1}{p=0} \left(\frac{p}{n}-\frac{1}{2} \right) \omega^{-kp}=(\cdots)+\frac{1}{n} \sum^{n-1}{p=0} \frac{p}{n} \omega^{-kp}$
Civil Service Pigeon
The first sum is just using the formula
For the second sum, consider what happens if you multiply it by $\omega^{-k}$
Civil Service Pigeon
Further hint: ||subtract the two||
Alternatively, differentiate an appropriate power series

yo
- From the new point, what is the(unit) direction vector and how many degrees do you need to
turn the ship to face asteroid 1, then asteroid 3, then asteroid 2? How long does it take to make
each turn
So I made my new point (5,27) however with that new point my arctangent comes up as undefined making it impossible to make a new vector
5-5 = 0. 9-27 = x/y = 0/-18. arctan(-18/0) = undefined
would it be 0
because anything divided by 0 is undefined which wouldn't be 0
would it be 270

if the arctan is undefined then how do you make a vector with it
-90 degrees
because its 90 degrees straight down

stat1
which ones do you think are false/true?
stat1 dunno how to begin
try to prove it or try to build a counter-exemple
If you fail ask yourself why and use it to do the opposite
