Am I doing 76 correct?
Substitute u = (x-1)²
Your substitution with u = x-1 is kind of redundant

So I am back with the same optimization problem, only because no technique I could find, worked unless I am doing something wrong here. For context, I am trying to approximate a(x) with A(x,k,p) by varying k and p. But I want to find the values for k and p that make A(x) match a(x) as much as possible. Though I do not know what else to do. What I have tried to do already, is in the second image, where I just find the smallest possible difference between a(x) and A(x,k,p) when varying the parameters k and p. What else could I do? What am I doing wrong here?

@heavy gulch Has your question been resolved?
well what exactly is the problem
those equations look good
I assume the values of K and p you got are from solving those equations
do you mean that the graphs dont overlap all that much?
fundamentally you have very different curves so thats not unexpected
actually I just noticed you dont have the square in the lower two equations. you either want a square or an absolute value there
or just generally something which makes it positive
otherwise the positive and negative differences can cancel each other out. instead of both of them having to be small
@heavy gulch Has your question been resolved?
Lemme wake up some more and I'll show
Here's the board work for now
The problem is the equations I get for p, do not give me the correct values
it says p is either undefined or 1
But from messing with some of the numbers (assume alpha is p), the value of p that best matches a(x) is 1.74
@heavy gulch Has your question been resolved?
That's because your equations basically come from the following minimization problem:
$$|a(x) - A(x,k,p)|^2_{L_2([0,+\infty))} \rightarrow \min,$$
BUT $a(x), A(x,k,p) \not\in L_2([0,+\infty))$
EQUENOS
So the problem is not well-defined
Well, the idea is good but the norm almost always diverges
I actually suspect that it diverges for any k, p, so minimizing that norm doesn't really make sense
Maybe you can try restricting everything to [1/n, n] and then minimize for arbitrary n and hope that k(n), p(n) have a limit
so you think I can alter the bounds of the integral or?
i dunno where L comes from
I setup this integral based off what seemed most reasonable
L_2 is a notation for a certain banach space
Anyways, we can avoid this notation
Yes, you should consider different bounds
Hm, that is why the most recent attempt, instead of making it go from infinity to zero, I made it go from infinity to a value called Z
For example
$$\int_{2^{-n}}^{2^n} \left(a(x)-A(x,k,p)\right)^2dx \rightarrow \min$$
EQUENOS
In this case your equations dI/dk=0, dI/dp=0 will yield some useful values
why those bounds btw? rather, why 2^n?
I wanted to specify some bounds that approach [0, inf) as n increases
For each individual n there exist optimal p, k which I denote p_n, k_n
Optimistically, I suspect that they approach some P, K, which will be the desired patameter values
This makes sense but im confused why to use it. As in, im confused why use this as opposed to a constant bc ive never really seen this used for bounds
I mean, when n is fixed, those are constants
The reason I want to increase n is that the bounds will be "closer" to [0, inf)
Of course you can just plug in n=10 and call it a day, but it's interesting to see whether the resulting (p, k) for n=10 and (p, k) for n=11 differ by much
If they do, then this approach isn't very reasonable
So again, this integral diverges
So I(k, p) = infinity for all k, p
Mostly due to the fact that a(x) has a wild singularity at 0
We discussed replacing the bounds with some non-zero finite positive numbers, but there's another approach - use weight function under the integral
In this case e^(-2/x) will most likely do
So $$\int_0^{+\infty} \left( a(x)-A(x,k,p)\right)^2 e^{-\frac{2}{x}}dx \rightarrow \min$$
EQUENOS
This approach might be the only reasonable way to deal with your task, because otherwise, as you mentioned, we will have k = inf, p = 0+
Ah that makes sense
Yeah a(x) is really difficult to integrate if not impossible, which is why I am integrating it this way. I have noticed many exponential inverse functions look very similar to regular inverse functions, but appear more often (from what I can tell) in a lot of the physics stuff I do than regular inverse functions.
how do i subtract decimals with zeros+
They only look similar, but in reality they're completely different functions
Indeed but that is why it makes one a good approximation of the other, especially when it comes to integration
Depends on bounds of integration
When x --> inf, then of course e^(1/x) ≈ 1 + 1/x + O(1/x²), but when x --> 0 none of k/x^p are even remotely as wild as e^(1/x)

I think wolfram alpha is miscalculating this
!show
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
I did stolz and I got $\frac{\sqrt{2n+1}-\sqrt{2n+2}}{\sqrt{n+1}-\sqrt{n}}$
ω
after that I got $(\sqrt{2n+1}-\sqrt{2n+2})(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})$
ω
and finally $\frac{-(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}{\sqrt{2n+1}+\sqrt{2n+2}}$
ω
after dividing by sqrt{n} this is convergent to -sqrt{2}/2
okay but this as a function starts at -0.4 and is decreasing It seems
so definitely its not 0
what do you mean "did stolz"
I applied Stolz Cesaro's theorem
what are your two sequences
the numerator and denominator
maybe you learned a different stolz-cesaro
show that statement and explicitly write the two sequences
i don't follow your step here
I multiplied by $\frac{\sqrt{2n+1}+\sqrt{2n+2}}{\sqrt{2n+1}+\sqrt{2n+2}}$
ω
and similarly by $\frac{\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n}}{\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n}}$
okay now its written correctly
sorry I should have written a complete sol perhaps
yea it's fine. i think your work is right
modulo some - signs i can't follow
why would this cancel anything
don't you just end up where you started
mb It should be plus sign
ω
i don't know why you shifted things, but $a_{n+1} - a_n = -\sqrt{2(n+1)} - (-\sqrt{2n})$
no wait i'm wrong
fixed
maybe a - sign error
yea
riemann
I think this is not correct cuz a_{n+1} has two more terms than a_n
as it should
a_n has 2n terms
so where is the term $-\sqrt{2(n+1)-1}$
ω
\sqrt{2n+1}
oh yea there's 3 terms in the numerator
oh nope i'm wrong
$a_n = ... +\sqrt{2n-1} - \sqrt{2n}$
riemann
$a_{n+1} = ...+\sqrt{2n-1} - \sqrt{2n} + \sqrt{2n+1} - \sqrt{2n+2}$
riemann
yup
ah you're right
so just a - sign error
I think this image is correct no?

@unique dagger Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
wait
it should be most likely on 1 roll and 1 flip, right?
since Prolln=(5/6)^(n-1)(1/6)
and Pflipn=(1/2)^n
since both are decreasing functions
it should be 1 roll 1 flip for
(1/6)(1/2)
right?
n is the number of rolls + number of flips
ah
I made a function on desmos
can U check its right?
I am saying n is the number of dice rolls m is the number of coin flips and x = n+m
which allows me to make a function in terms of x
ah yep thats what i wanted to do next, i was gonna split n=a+b haha
ye and I found with 1 coin flip and 5 or 6 dice rolls I get the greatest peak for my function for p_n
but its wrong
do u happen to have the answer
i believe your method ends up with like a 3d function
exactly why i believe its being overcomplicated
oh is it
im not too sure yet haha
maybe
but the binomial probability tells me the probability tells me the chance of getting a success inside of n events
combinations and permutations shouldn't matter though
not after n events
so
yeah
it should be closer to like
n=a+b
Prolla=(5/6)^(a-1)(1/6) Pflipb=(1/2)^b
then Pn=Prolla*Pflipb
actually wait
permutations MIGHT matter since u could have like
3 f+2 r or 2f+3r and so on
and u need to add them up
wait what?
what is f and r?
which looks a lot like the binomial so
flips and rolls
wait how is n = 5?
its not im giving an example
probably has a summation notation
not
too sure rn
wait how about consider n=2,3,4
maybe we can see a pattern
what would I be summing
let Pra denote probability for rolling 6 in a tries and Pfb denote probability for getting heads in b tries
for n=2
u need (Pr1)(Pf1)
yep
for n=3 u need (Pr1)(Pf2)+(Pr2)(Pf1)
why?
cuz u need to consider all cases n=3
and sum them
not just one case
P(n) has to return the probability that n is that specific n
so for this, both n=3
so like this?
so the probability P(3)=probability of both cases where n=3
can u explain why u need to sum them tho cause I still dont really fully understand
so ^
like P(2) only had one case where n=2
which is f=1,r=1
ye
but for P(3), f=1,r=2 and f=2,r=1 both give n=3
yay!!
@unique dagger u can check if its actually the maximum like so
oh ye
ye it is a maximum
I will reopen this if it is wrong but it is probably right thank youu @last vapor

I have the width 8m and Area of the shape 90m^2 how can I work out L and perimeter of the shape?
anything else given?
Well, you can find the length of D from the fact that it is a leg of a right triangle with hypotenuse length 8m
Then you can find the area of the triangle, and you have 8×L + (area of triangle) = 90m^2
oh, yeah duh
unless the right triangle is an icoseles you cant find D
I don't buy that
ig if you take the diagram
i think it must necessarily be 45 45 90 otherwise we cant make any statements on the area either
fair
if its not L*W for the rectangle portion, i mean. if it is, then, its a rectangle. and im pretty sure if its a rectangle you can do some angle extrapolation and prove that the triangle is 45 45 90
A fence around a field is shaped as shown in the Figure. It consists of a rectangle of length L and width W and a right triangle that is symmetric about the central horizontal axis of the rectangle. Suppose the width W is known (in meters) and the enclosed area A is known (in square meters).
That's the first part of the question the rest is just explaining to program it which i can do just getting to the equation got me bugging for some reason
and by this, D = W/sqrt(2)
ok its a 45 45 90 cause "symetric about the central horizontal axisnof the rectangle"
@limpid needle this should be enough to figure it out yourself, r u stuck?
Think ive got there still learning MatLab as im a Phyton coder so just tryna make sure i write it properly but appreciate it think ive got it (Mind the Explanations its not for me lmao)
W = input('Enter the width of the rectangle in metres = ');
A = input('Enter the area of the shape in Metres Squared (Integer only No letters etc.)');
%First im going to work out D for the Given input of W and Height of the
%Triangle
D = W/sqrt(2);
H = sqrt(D^2 - (W/2)^2);
%Next im going to work out the Area of the triangle then L
AreaTriangle = ((H * D)*2);
%Now to work out we take the area of the triangle away from the total and
%calculate L
AreaRectangle = A - AreaTriangle;
you overcomplicate the area of the triangle
since its a 45 45 90 then the legs are D

a
okay uhh
integrating ∫sec^2(θ/2)tan(θ/2)
ive tried doing this like a bazillion times and ik the answer is like tan^2(θ/2) or something but i just
have no idea hwo we get there
and ik u = tan(θ/2)
but like
then ig et confused on the rest
Well then du = sec^2(θ/2) * 1/2 dθ
bc the θ/2 has to be derived too right
but isnt θ/2 like x/2? which would derive to 2/x^2????
that's what i keep getting stuck on rlly 😭
It is like x/2, and the derivative of x/2 is 1/2 as well
wait it is???
ive been using quotient rule to derive x/2 the whole time is it just
what???
It doesn't give the wrong answer if you use the quotient rule, so you probably are making a mistake somewhere.
But regardless $\frac{d}{dx} (\frac{x}{2}) = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{d}{dx} x) = \frac{1}{2} \cdot 1$
Azyrashacorki
is this like a thing ur meant to memorize that x/2 just derives to 1/2
No. It's the power rule..

given is the graph of a derivative between -4 and 8, would the function be considered continously increasing in this range for -4<=x<=9
what u tried so far
well there is not much to try, no? This is more of a understanding question if at all. f'(1x) < f'(2x) if this is true
and I'm not sure if
7.999999999999999999999999999999 and 8 not having a difference
because of the derivative being 0
makes this statement untrue
because 8 having a derivative of 0
implies there is a number inbetween
at which there is no difference to 8
no?
actually this graph is the derivative of a function
therefore, when the function has positive values then it is increasing
sure, but would this still be considered strictly increasing
You're asking specifically at the point x = 8 where the derivative is momentarily 0, if that means that the function is not increasing there.
oh I see srry
So given the definition of increasing you gave, or tried to give, a function is strictly increasing if for all x1 and x2 on an interval (a, b) if x1 < x2 then also f(x1) < f(x2)
If the derivative is only 0 as one point, then any interval containing that point (x1, x2) will also contain non-zero values for the derivative, and these values will be positive
So the overall behavior is increasing on that interval
So it's still strictly increasing.

someone teach me how to do D
Do you know how the format of writing an equation for a line when two points are given?
y = mx + b right?
the formula for d
but
no thats only if the slope and a point is given
here two points are given
but if you find the slope you could use that
its m = 2.5
so i just needed help with d
so y = mx + b
y = 2.5(x) + b
what do i do next?
@hexed hearth ?
use this
that works
what is y for y1?
but if you have the m
i mean you could use this but you've written it wrong
yeah exactly this
if u have m
how do i use it?]
Then you can just use this
ok choose a point then sub in x1 and y1 where x1 and y1 are coordinates of a point
what do i do?
so it would be y - 1 = m ( x- 3)
i dont get whats the y and x when they arent told if its x2 or y2
the + b is basically 1 here when it goes to the RHS
Yes
what do i do next?
y - 1 = 2.5(x-3)
let me calculate
is it equal y = 2.5(x) + (-6.5)
?

p↔q ↔ [(p^q)v((~p)^(~q)]
prove using logical equivalence
@hearty glen Has your question been resolved?
!show
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
isnt this just one big and statement ??
i tried going a bit backwards starting with the p↔q, going to (p→q)∧(q→p) then.. i dont really know, everywhere seems like a dead end
i know this works cus the truth table works
sorry just to clarify, are you asking to prove that (p is true if q is) when (both/neither p or q are true)
but i just dont know how to apply logical equivalence here
im trying to prove p↔q ≡ [(p^q)v((~p)^(~q)]
sorry, its hard to type mobile
nah its good
alright im absolutely not qualified for this but im gonna just try to provide my perspective so take what i say with a bucket of salt
- if p isnt true, but q is, there is no guarantee that (p ↔ q)
- if q isnt true, but p is, then p cannot be true as a cause of q being true
- if both p and q are true, then p will always be true when q is
- if neither p or q are true, then p will always be false when q is, so when q isnt false, p wont be false either
youre basically just boiling this down to
"p will be true when q is, but only if both p and q are true (with extra stuff too but its the same idea)", and this just seems like some long-winded tautology to me
it is, using the truth table, its proven to be a tautology, whats hard to do is prove using the laws in logical equivalence
dont the logical equivalence laws include tautology
yea but, there should be a step by step on how you can go from one to another
something like this

How do you calculate inverse with cramers rule
go from here
calculate the determinant of that matrix
then replace columns to find x1 x2 y1 y2

i need help
I've show that both partial derivates exist, but i'm having a hard time showing that the function isnt differentiable in the origin
Do you recall the condition for a multivariable function to be differentiatiable?
I've been trying to show it using the definition
and trying to show that such a transformation wouldnt be linear
f(p+v) = f(p) + T(v) + o(v)
if T is linear, then T is the differential of f at p, right?
is there a better condition?
That i do not remember
here's the book definition
this is what I was trying to do
and maybe show that T is not linear
I'm curious. Did you find $f_x(0,0)=f_y(0,0)=0$?
SWR
yeah
So your linear function is just going to be $P(x,y)=f(0,0)=0$, right?
SWR
by P(x,y) you mean what I wrote T(x,y)?
By P, i basically mean the tangent plane that approximates f at (0,0)
Idk if your T does that same thing
oh, you see
I don't think there is such a plane
since f is not differentiable
am i wrong?
You are correct. One will not exist. But that's the strategy i use to prove f is not differentiable. But it seems you require a different strat
This is what i use. And i found success with this current problem
Idk if you can use it though. Yours is certainly more generic and not something i am immediately familiar with
It's more specific. I'm guessing you are not in an ordinary multivariable calculus class
Perhaps something more in real analysis?
no, it's $R^n$ analysis
Luizin
Figured
Okay ask in #real-complex-analysis
I know some analysis, but nothing here. I don't know how you are calculating $(Df)_p$
SWR
Thanks man
really
im new here, so i'm gonna ask there
thanks for your kindness

hey
Hi
so the question is n!<= ((n+1)/2)^n prove this via mathematical induction
I got k!(k+1) <= ((k+1)/2)^k*(k+1)
via the inductive step
and k!(k+1) is (k+1)! obviously
I then got stuck
I knew the RHS should be ((k+2)/2)^k+1
via the inductive hypothesis
So i asked chatgpt
which gave me this
why does this inequality occur?
Well then it’s probably right
dont ask chatgpt please
Right..
Please do not trust ChatGPT or similar AI tools for mathematical tasks, as they often generate output which "sounds correct" but has numerous factual or logical errors. Use of these AI tools to answer other people's help questions is strictly against server rules (see #rules).
ok help me please
what should I get
well now we don’t want to since you cheated
@torn jolt please stop talking
Who df are you- Nvm you ain’t getting my help
$k!(k+1) \leq \left(\frac{k+1}{2}\right)^k(k+1)$
ok so this is what you already know
yes
RHS should be multiplied by (k+!) as well as this is the inductive step
(k+1)
rbit
$(k+1)! \leq \left(\frac{k+2}{2}\right)^{k+1}$
yes
this is your goal
rbit
ok then, one thing you could do is to show
yes?
$\left(\frac{k+1}{2}\right)^k(k+1)\leq \left(\frac{k+2}{2}\right)^{k+1}$
rbit
left is the upper bound for (k+1)! that you already know of, it stems from the induction hypothesis, the right side is the upper bound for (k+1)! in the inequality you want to show
(k+1)!<= (k+1)/2)^k*(k+1) is known
Yes I understand but I dont get one thing
then, if (k+1)! <= A, and if A <= B, you know that (k+1)! <= B
showing this A <= B would be our next goal
ohh i get it
but usually during induction
you have to show that the next step is true (as in k+1)
how is this doing that
well this B term is really just the term for n = k+1
and we already got (k+1)! on the left side, so that's perfect isn't it?
oh i get it
im gonna try simplify that
on my whiteboard hold up
@lofty linden
doesthis give ((k+1)/(k+2))^k<= k+2/2k+2
what are these fractions?
I dividied both sides by ((k+2)/2)^k
then both sides by k+1
its the simplified form so ican apply limits
rbit
at least that is what I got
how did u get that?
multiply 2^(k+1) and divide (k+1)^(k+1)
where did you get 2^(k+1) from
also you cant treat fractions with expnonents like that I dont think??
LHS has ^k as an exponenet so multiplying 2^k+1 doesnt do anything right???
that's why there is a 2 left over
also RHS is the same as( k^k+1/2^k+1 + 1)
it's 2^(k+1) / 2^k
oh I was just confused by the syntax, it might be correct
$\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^k = \frac{a^k}{b^k}$
rbit
just note this though and it should hopefully make sense
@lofty linden
$\left(\frac{k+1}{k+2}\right)^k\le :\frac{\left(k+2\right)}{2k+2}
how do i DO THIS LMAO
sorry
$\left(\frac{k+1}{k+2}\right)^k\le :\frac{\left(k+2\right)}{2k+2}
$\left(\frac{k+1}{k+2}\right)^k\le :\frac{\left(k+2\right)}{2k+2}$
rbit
hmm almost actually
what if we take the right side, and
$\frac{1}{2}\left( \frac{k+2}{k+1}\right)$
first write it like this
rbit
is it right though?
now multiply (k+1)/(k+2)
even symbolab couldnt help me lmao
yeah its right
not so fast
if you do these steps and simplify a little it will eventually land here again though
$2 \leq \left(\frac{k+2}{k+1}\right)^{k+1}$
rbit
if you just take this k and replace it by k-1, does that term look familiar?
@lofty linden is (k+2/k+1) = k+1/k+2^-1?
yeah
wait @lofty linden can you please show me the algebra from to the above thing you got
im lost
multiply by (k+1)/(k+2)
yeah
then how do you get 2? can you just recpirocate 1/2 and flip the signs?
well what would it do for you?
doesnt k+2/k+1 approach 1 fromt he positive side?
$\lim_{k \to \infty} \left(\frac{k+2}{k+1}\right)^{k+1}$
rbit
if you have a good eye you might already know what this it
yeah
goddamn
thats a hard question for me man
I struggled with that
you should see my white board @lofty linden
its written all over
yes we do
how much did you study the (1+1/k)^k sequence?
since eulers number is 2.7...
not much lmao
just sometimes in calc
because it approaches 2.7, but that doesn't mean that's true for all k
did you show it's monotone increasing?
if not then that's another round of induction for ya
yeah these problems can get a bit messy with all the algebra
i dont think I need to do that
😭
for my level
Im not that advanced yet
problem is, what if for some random k=3 it's less than 2
I guess ill say for all k values greater than 3 or sum
wait for which k values is it not true
the limit only tells you that there is some K so that its true for all k >= K
(well actually it really is K = 1, but we didn't prove it yet)
I mean, just plugging in k=1, k=2, k=3, ... proves it
but how do you know it doesn't break for .. k=1000000
well it should follow the limit shouldnt it
it will eventually stabilize at 2.7, eventually..
it doesnt make sense for it to randomly break for a value
as it follows a pattern
right??
intuitively yes
@lofty linden do I need to actually prove the limit as it approaches e?
if you can show it's monotone (and we know it equals 2 for k=1) then that's enough
no limits needed actually
oh good I did the base case step already
also a jew sent me this
can you prove this wrong?
if this is an analysis course and you proved that the limit equals e, then I'm pretty sure you proved somewhere that it's monotone increasing
Oh okay
thanks so much btw
ive been struggling with this
yeah no problem

I need some help with this trig identity, im mostly just confused with the cot(x/2) because i have no idea what to do with it
these are the identities we have available
I think it has to do with the cofunction identities but i dont know where the pi went
pi didn't go anywhere. It's just not part of this.
I think I'd write cos(x) = cos(2 (x/2)) and use the double angle identity, then do the same for sine.

I don't understand the logic of P -> Q being true when P is false and Q is true.
Closed by @manic bramble
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
.reopen
✅
using the example: "if x is a rational number, then x^2 is a rational number" is a true statement.
e.g. x = sqrt(2) then x^2 = 2. so "x is a rational number" is false, and "x^2 is a rational number" is true
essentially if p is false then the statement is true no matter what, because it makes no claim about what q should be
I think of it like this: 0 + 1 = 2 -> 1 + 2 = 3
and it just doesn't click for me
So, is there actual logical basis for it, or is it just defined to be like that?
-2 = 2 --> (-2)² = 2² --> 4 = 4
it's useful to define it that way because we often use logical implications on statements which are sometimes true and sometimes false. but this definition may feel artificial for statements which are always true or always false

When I checked for the answer of the integral I got an insane answer from Wolframalpha and etc
Is this the correct way to do it?
I'm not sure if its correct
Also sorry for it being messy
u did the expansion wrong
a^2 + 2ab + b^2
x^4 + 4x^2/sqrt(2x-1) + 4/(2x-1)
what did you get for the integral of $\frac{4x^2}{\sqrt{2x - 1}}$?
southlander!
Wolfram tells me this integral is $\frac{4}{15} \sqrt{-1 + 2x} (2 + 2 x + 3 x^2) + c$
southlander!
I don't know how they get that
My answer is the one squared at the bottom
ah they probably simplified it
I forgot to multiply the last 2 part by 1/2 I think
yes I think so too
thanks
yes just to recap you should get this for the integral
to correct everything, the middle term should be multiplied by 1/2 and the last term should be multiplied by 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4
then just add your answer to the integral of x^4 + 4/(2x - 1) and you're done!
,w simplify 4x^{2}-\frac{8x}{3}\left(2x-1\right)+\frac{8}{15}\left(2x-1\right)^{2}
small exercise for you if you are interested
Sure
Thanks!

can anyone solve this using any tool?
h^2 + (a + h/tan(75))^2 = a^2 + (h/sin(75))^2 - 2((ah)/sin(75))cos(105) ----- (1)
(2a + h + h/tan(75))(h)/2 = 32 * root6 ----- (2)
What do the dashes mean
,w Solve[{
h^2 + (a + h/tan(75 degrees))^2 == a^2 + (h/sin(75 degrees))^2 - 2*(a*h/sin(75 degrees))*cos(105 degrees),
(2a + h + h/tan(75 degrees))h/2 == 32sqrt(6)
}, {a, h}]
just represent two equations

How do I do question 1a?? My teacher gave the other pic as an example but I have no idea what she's doing or where it came from
Go to another channel please
I'm using this man
Ok sorry
i hope this diagram can help better?
So would it be (pi/2 - 5pi/12)?
let's start with the second one because it has the sin
Alr
you need to turn the angle inside of the sin so that you get a more known angle
This is what my teacher got
Idk how tho
Where did he get the 3pi and 2 pi from?
Then how the hell did he get pi/4 + pi/6
Where are these numbers coming from?
ok
5pi/12 = (3pi + 2pi)/12 = 3pi / 12 + 2pi / 12
after that, he would simplify the fractions
by noticing that 12 = 3 x 4, he would divide both the top side and the bottom of side of 3pi / 12 by 3
getting pi/4
as for 2pi/12, 12 also happens to be 6x2
which?
The 2
Everything
I need someone to write it down on paper
I don't understand it at all
Are there any videos online that explain this?
Yea I understand that
Khan academy probably
Similar questions?
Yea just google
so basically
Either fractions or sum angle identity
anything that isn't zero divided by itself is 1
dividing by 3 is the same as multiplying by 1/3
you know how multiplying something by 1 doesn't change anything?
you apply that principle here and transform 1 to 1/3 divided by 1/3
Ppl will start thinking mathcord is partner with khan xd
Not a sponsor
Ima skip this part on the quiz
don't worry you'll get used to it
Sal call me if you're reading
Idk where all these numbers are coming from
I appreciate u tryna help @narrow granite
I just don't get it
what exactly do u struggle with?
Yea start with fractions
ok so basically cosines and sines are ratios used to determine the proportions of the sides of a right triangle based on the angle of its acute angles
Isn't it just this?
that's the second one we were trying to do, but the correction you showed me covers the first question
no you're not
What 2nd one?
math is intimidating when you first look at it
I only showed 1 question
the one with sin instead of cos
.
anyway
there's a formula you're going to learn by heart
cos(a PLUS b) = cos(a)cos(b) MINUS sin(a)sin(b)
it's important that you know the plus and minus change places
Yea ik all the formulas
I just don't know how to add the question into the formula 💀
Like 5pi/12
What's a and b?
And it's cos 5pi/12
Hit and trial
Where's sine?
Why would you want sin ?
Ah
Sin(a+b) = cos(a)sin(b) + cos(b)sin(a)
But also you don't need it here
The formula make known value of sin to calulate
Ima watch a video my teacher posted about this
He posted the whole lesson
So ima watch that and try again later
I appreciate ur guys help
