You too oomfie
oomfie
AS "BRUHHHHHH" SAID, ITS BETTER TO UNDERSTAND THEM THAN TO USE THE MNEMONIC.
BUT THE MNEMONIC SAVED ME A FEW TIMES SO HERE:
"SOHCAHTOA"
SOH CAH TOA
S=O/H , C =A/H , T=O/A
MY HUMBLEST APOLOGIES =(
Yeah ik the trig rules and whatnot
I was speaking on moreorless those identities used in general equations
also idk what you mean by its better to understand: unless you know the specific nomenclature and basis for the names, then its memorization for sin vs cos vs tan
But he did solve my question tho, I think I’ll just drop having to memorize em
do you want identities?
Yeah sure, above the 3 main ones
what three main ones
! extremum
The reciprocal, quotient and pythagorean identities
use unit circle for negative angles, reflected angles, e.t.c
$\sin{a + b} = \sin{a}\cos{b} + \sin{b}\cos{a}$
oop
! extremum
$\cos{a + b} = \cos{a}\cos{b} - \sin{a}\sin{b}$
! extremum
THIS IS WHAT I USED IN SCHOOL
Ah I see
What are some suggestions to make my arithmetics faster, since I’m still awfully slow with rational expressions and so on
(I’m not particularly the best with dealing with operations, even then I still get confuse with applying pemdas fully)
Very interesting, will take note
you're getting reported
no but like dont butt in with random info
BUT WATERS IMPORTANT
sec is the reciprocal of cos
csc is the reciprocal of sin
aare you god at evaluating trig functions at easy angles?
are you familiar with radians
do you know inverse trig
do you know the derivative of all the trig functions?
I don’t think I have touched there yet
That no,
I think the only function I rlly know for trig
ignore everything past radians
ya
then you can solve for cos
i think
i forget how
no thats not perfect
let me show
! extremum
I think the only core issues I rlly have dealing with some equations is that my operational skills aren’t the best especially when I have like fairly bad dyslexia and adhd which makes it ever much slower
You think practice is the only way to make it any better?
I think its more or less because of my very bad planning skills and making out the steps I have to do to map everything out
I do know someone did suggest me to learn some number theory to improve it as, it’ll make it easier for my brain to make out those connections
sry i was eating
yeah
um
to memorize
just write it down a bunch of times
taking notes on cumpter doesnt improve retention
wdym @proper kite
im confused what you saying
what is hard?
Well its not rlly because its hard, its more or less because idk, I just have a very hard time organizing and planning things in general, and its no better than when doing mathematics
Even smth as simple as Pemdas I trip up on the some of the most trivial bs
yes
write down stuff that you forget
it will come to you easier
thats what i do
when my teacher gives me a google classroom code or smth
i write it down like 10 times
then i have no problem remembering
oh shit
i forgot it
😅
oops
it was like
i3ij2j or smth
i forgor
there was an n somewhere in there
ok back to you
🇺
Oh I’ve been doing it, especially when I had an oversight on things
(Tbh I shouldn’t had been lazy and finished my last year math with a D) (I didn’t pay attention in class and only on the last minute I rushed in with a 2 As and a B- on my exam
so tell me
do you make too many silly mistakes?
for silly mistakes
i always read what im saying out loud
Because lets just say it transferred over to this year and I have a D+ rn since I failed my first two tests
but do you know the course material
I once misread 45.8 as 65.8
was that bc of your dyslexia? sorry abt that
Yeah I do know, pre calc
Oh yea definitely
you mentioned you're dyslexic, right?
yeah
thats tough
idk how to help with that
but
for silly mistakes
i recommend
for preparation
Yeah and I also have some fairly bad adhd as well
So my executive functioning isn’t the best
Definitely will
and during the test
I’ve noticed thats also where I notice my mistake after tryn fix em for like 5 minutes
talk out loud
yah
ok
i gtg
to the gym
bye
good night
well for me
idk where you live
Oh right cya
good night
Canada, but yeah gl hf thank you
ok bye

im stuck on how to do this
using what ive learned
i get
dy/3=y^2dx
then i integrate both sides getting
y/3=xy^2+C
i solve for C by plugging in y(4)=3 to get C=-140/3
so now do i solve for y in the above equation and plug in C?
ah there you go
move all factors of y to one side
so you have $\frac{dy}{dx} = 3y^2$. I would do the following: $$y^{-2}dy = 3dx$$ and then try again
MellowDramaLlama
$\int y^{-2} dy = 3 \int dx$
MellowDramaLlama
hi please don't ping I"m helping other people
oh sorry i wasnt aware of that
check your integral on the left hand side again.
remember the power rule for integrals is this
(also don't forget your + C on the right side)
-1/y=3x+C
yep bingo, now just solve for y and you should be gucci
thanks!
yep np
ok so it's kind of weird thing but that + C doesn't get carried over into the denominator
so here's what I'm getting
$$ -\frac{1}{y} = 3x + C$$
$$ -y = \frac{1}{3x} + C$$
$$ y = -\frac{1}{3x} + C$$
MellowDramaLlama
why does the +C not get carried into the denom
remember the constant C is just a veritical translation of your graph since an integral is a family of functions
ok now try and solve with that
(you also didn't negate the -1/3x which could've also been an issue)
hey do I know you? 
um,
huh
i plugged in y(3)=4
oh
oh wait I"m dumb
I'm sorry
the +C does carry over into the denom
butyou didn't negate the function
try this: $$ y = -\frac{1}{3x + C}$$
MellowDramaLlama

ik how to solve this
but
my teacher got 0.16 ft/ sec and
idk how she did that. bc she said one of the sides = 23 bc of pythagorean thereom. but when i do it i get 8
like for the side
one of the sides . cuz we’re given 20 and 12
it’s a right triangle
-0.3 ft/sec btw
and i keep getting 8 but my teacher got 23.. for B
c is the ladder btw

Can someone guide me through this?
,rotate
put x = 1
Why
Is there a more algebraic method?
look, it is written on your photo, that, x is any real number right ?
so
you can subsitute whatever
in palce of x
if you put x = 1
then you got required sum
multipleid by 2
and on left side also 2
so you can eaisly see, that sum of coefficents = 1
that si algebraic method, i jsut wrote it

How do i do all of this
Do you know what the discriminant is?
Ok so you should be able to do the first question, yeah?
i just not sure about the positive definate and indefinate mean
im not sure
Positive definite means it’s greater than zero if you put in any number other than 0
so what does the a,b and c mean in that formula?
a =3 b = (12-k) c= 12
Well you substitute that into the discriminate formula
Then youre asked to find the values of K such that it’s strictly positive
K^2-24k
yes
You now need to work out for what values of K this is strictly positive
how?
So you just solve k^2-24k>0
how do i do that?
Well you’re looking to solve for k so what do you think you would do
Well taking the root wouldn’t help because you’d still have a k on both sides
But the first step is correct
yea
How could you isolate a factor of k?
yes
Just think about it for a while it’s probably easier than you’re expecting
Yeah you divide, if you’re unsure about the direction of the inequality what could you do to check?
uh
idk
im pretty sure if you divide or times over u have to switch it tho
@sage onyx is that right?
sry for ping
someone please help me
How do i do d) and q3
My brain cant
d
?
doesnt say
also the angle of inclination..
it just says
a shell is fired from level ground after t seconds, its height h in meters is givin by h=50t-5t^2
might refer to a parabolic curve
h = 50t - 5t^2 hm
whats the derivate of height
what
dh/dt would be useless..
bro what grade is this from
10th
wait..
all u have to do it equate height in this and then solve
for t
is the answer wrong?
uhm so?
idk how to get htat
5t^2 - 50 t+375
yes exactly
my brother..
my bad
gl
u need -375 for it to be right
😭
no
im gonna commit
that doesnt work
so t2 - 15t + 5t - 75
you cant just whip out a - 375
t (t - 15) + 5 (t - 15 )
which is why the question is wrong
youre*
stupid maths*
recheck the question
💪
no i have my own doubts
right here
i need this last question to be done
i need to hop on val
and then
derank
no
i cant solve it myself
cause i dont know how
thats why im here
which is also why i cant play val
so please help me 🙏

not sure how to start the question
is the force right on the labeled diagram between floor and the ladder
even if i had it not sure where to go from there though
<@&286206848099549185>
@pale peak Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> is anyone able to help? i think it wants to shut down this channel
hi
can you help?
yes
F1=F2 yes?
i think so foir horizontal equilibrium
yes
and u=tan60 right?
R is the reaction force which acts on the ground
Just like how horizontal forces equal, so do vertical
so its just 20g N
so its just 0.2 x 20g
Mhm
Btw don’t just assume horizontal forces equal each other and that vertical forces equal each other
We only do this in 2 cases
When it says that the system is in equilibrium
it says its wrong
Or when it asks the minimum or maximum force required for smth
Hm
does r act vertically or is it at an angle and just some component vertical
so then the 60 degrees actually matters
ok
Should be 39.2?
it says that is wrong
Is there anything else to the question?
just that
its from some questions that a few needed to resolve moments as well so that could be something?
No moments here as doesn’t give distance
but because its a uniform ladder the weight acts at centre so just use a variable value ?
its ok
Was thinking I was going crazy 😂
So in this case
It’s talking about another external force
Which would be applied to the ladder
To keep it in equilibrium
So when horizontal forces equal
so friction + external force = force from wall
Exactly
We’ve worked out friction
But we don’t know what the force from the wall is
And to work that out we would need to use moments 😭😭😭😭
ok
So take moments from A
not sure how to resolve the 20g force to be perpendicular to the bar for the moment
Take a look at this diagram
The forces acting from A are cancelled
So we don’t need to worry about S (external force), the friction and the reaction at the base of the ladder RA
how do you know the angle acting from 20g is 60 degrees
Where?
between 20g and the ladder
surely need resolve the forces to be perpendicular to the ladder though
But it’s because the dotted line is perpendicular meaning its at a 90 degree angle
We can see that inside the triangle we have a 60 degrees, also have a 90 degrees meaning we are left with 30 degrees
Thus if it’s perpendicular where one side is 30
Other must be 60
Instead of having to think of all this always just remember that when there’s a ladder like this or anything at an angle
And there’s a force acting down
ok ill give it a go
The angle next to it will always be the same as the one inside
so would this be right?
just did it and got it right
answer was 17.4 N

How do I make a sign chart with this equation? f(x) = (6(x+3)(x-1)^2 ))/(x-3)^3
How do I make a sign chart with this equation? f(x) = (6(x+3)(x-1)^2 ))/(x-3)^3
Damn the bot is really broken
what do I do
Where you stuck
is this help channel open?
i have the equation simplifed but I am not sure what to do with that information
(x^2 - 6x + 9)(x-3)
The line on the bottom right is supposed to be the sign chart
??
can i have help please?
How do I make a sign chart with this equation? f(x) = (6(x+3)(x-1)^2 ))/(x-3)^3
Sign chart is finding when is the function positive or negative, right?
yes
i understand the multiplicty law to know when signs stay the same or flip
but i dont know how to tell what it starts off as
We know that a function can change sign whenever it's either discontinuous or zero
Right?
i learned that it changes sign when the multiplicity is odd
so please enlighten me
i sent a picture up above
should i just plug -4 in?
That may not hold for non-rational functions
Consider sign(x)*(x^2)
Anyway, did you get what I said before?
ok
This
can you show me what that would look like'
its hard for my small brain to understand
Apart from some examples, there is nothing to show. The thing is that a continuous function won't change sign unless it passes through 0 at some point
So a possible approach is to find all points that the function is 0 or discontinuous at
Because that is going to tell us the only places the function is allowed to change sign on
yeah i was gettin at examples but i think i get it now, could you show me how that would work
I plugged in -4 and it gave me a negative number which also agrees with the graph
The owner is missing!
Okay now that you got the places at which the function may change sign, you have broken the real number line into a few pieces
Hmm they ask you to do it in a different way than what I'm saying
Yeah I don't think I can explain it clearly because I'm not familiar with that way of solving this
Sorry :/
could you at keast tell me if my answre is right@eternal edge
so i can kinda have a feel for if im doing it somewhat right

how do i find the slant height
Draw a right triangle with the height as a side and half the length of the side of the base as the other side
then use pythagoras
I have this, is 13 the slant height?
It's not the slant heigh if it is referring to the black line, no

I already got the proof that it works for odd numbers
But how can I prove it doesn’t work for even numbers?
Why would it not ?
Well I tried some even numbers and it doesn’t work
How did you prove it for odd numbers
Looking at n|(n-k)^n + k^n for k = 1,2,…,(n-1)/2
That's much more obscure than what I had in mind
It’s just mod n
Yeah ofc it works when you expand because they nicely simplify the k^n
And there's no middle term
So in general mod n you'd be left with (n/2)^n
If n is even
Yeah but idk how to go about the case where n is even
Why is this relevant?
n divides a number iff it's 0 mod n
No where does (n/2)^n come from
This argument pairs the terms together
Except that if n is even, you have an odd number of terms
This argument doesn’t work for n even
So the middle one is leftover
Ud get a 2k^n hanging
U mean the original sum or which sum?
Original
How do I do that?
Wouldn't you happen to know a theorem about the value of a^n mod n ?
Like Euler theorem?
I don't know 2 such theorems
Not sure what theorem you’re referring to
It's a mod n
,w Fermat's little theorem
N has to be prime for that
Chinese remainder theorem says it doesn't
Well it's a bit more complicated actually
But it still holds
a^n = a mod n
Not sure what you’re on about take a=3 n=8
,w 3^8
Well that’s not a mod n
Had a bit of a moment
It’s aight 😂
I haven't done any arithmetic in too long
Gonna invent a proof for this, brb
Cause then the sum would be n-1 mod n which is just about never 0
It’s not gonna always be 1 mod n I don’t think
6^8 is 0 mod 8
Well yeah if it’s even
consider n = 2^(p)q where q is odd and do some modulo sheninegan with mod 2^p
youd need euler's theorem for this
Suppose n = 2^(p)q where q is odd and its true that n|1^n + 2^n +...+ (n-1)^n [insert some modulo shenanigans] deduce that 2^(p+1) | n - a contradiction.

I know how to do it with things such as sinacos2a+cosasin2a
but how would i do it with this
,, \tan(A-B)=\frac{\tan A-\tan B}{1+\tan A \cdot \tan B}

I think it's 28 cuz the allude to that twice but is it from 30-12 or 58-30
@tacit solar Has your question been resolved?
what is 28
Width
of the opening?
Yes
But w should be shorter than l
eh that's more of a convention than anything
So w is 56 ?
yes
And they tell you to find area but before finding width which is weird because I don't think you'd do second question before first
Then the last question says go to find BD

Simple question, whats happening to get from first to second line
sin^2(x) = sin(x) * sin(x)
So you can just separate the fraction using the above
ohh right I see
Do you also perhaps know waht is happening here?
Does the cos^2x become the 1-sin^2x
It didn't
cos^2(x) + sin^2(x) = 1
Applying associative property, you can group the terms so cos^2 + sin^2 - sin^2cos^2 is the same as (cos^2 + sin^2) - sin^2cos^2

artemetra
Isn't it just
well this is the first step
i'm not giving you the answer right away lol
@frozen geode do you see how that's true?
$a^{n}b\sqrt{a^{n}b}$
artemetra
just type out regularly
look here
$\sqrt{a^{2n}a^n b^{2n}b}=\sqrt{a^{2n}b^{2n}a^n b}$
artemetra
how's that for a hint
the last step is literally 1 operation away from the final solution
put what
yeah i was showing without it
it's the same thing
$\sqrt{a^{3n}b^{2n+1}} = \sqrt{a^{2n}a^n b^{2n}b}$

I have been thinking about this for a while and I can't figure it out.
Imagine you toss 2 fair coins without looking at the output. The sample space is {HH, HT, TH, TT}.
You have a parter that has seen the output of the 2 coins and tells you that one of them is Heads. Now, you calculate the probability that the other is also Heads. Intuitively, because coin tosses are independent, you'd say it's 1/2, it doesn't matter what the other coin is. But, looking at the sample space, if you know one of them is heads, you have the event {HH, HT, TH}. Every outcome has a probability of 1/4 so the probability that the other coin is tails is 1/2 but the probability of being also heads is 1/4? I know this is wrong but I don't really understand where the reasoning is failing.
Intuitively, because coin tosses are independent, you'd say it's 1/2
not quite. I think it's similar to the monty hall problem
because...informally, the knowledge that one is heads sort of carries over all the events
the only event that has no heads is the all tails event
but how is the output of one of the coins affecting the probabilities of the other?
oh I missed the part where you're wanting the probability of the other coin being heads
P(2 heads|one is heads) = P(2 heads and at least one is heads)/P(at least one is heads)
= (1/4)/(3/4)
= 1/3
it's because the events "2 heads" and "at least one is heads" are not independent
now that's more unintuitive
but it doesn't make sense how you toss a coin and it turns heads, you go to another galaxy a million years later you toss another coin and its probability to be heads is 1/3?
how's that possible?
no - the chance that second coin is heads is still 1/2.
I think I lack basic understanding of conditioned probabilities
the 1/3rd here is given that you will get at least one heads, you will get 2heads
so you know that you're not getting 2 tails
that 1/3rd chance also includes the possibility that your first flip is tails
oh I think I get it now
P(2 heads|the first flip was heads) is 1/2
yeah yeah I get it
conditional probability is hell to understand, yeah
omg you solved an entire night of nightmares
that was haunting me lmao
🙏
Thanks

seems a little vague
but i guess i can claim lim{x -> inf} 1/x has limit -100 in that definition
as x goes to inf 1/x gets closer and closer to -100 because it gets smaller and smaller
"gets closer"

Im completely lost can anyone walk me step by step ive tried watching a vid but got the wrong answer twice
Find the average o...?
both questions?
how do you do division
8 hours ago...
Yeah im completely stuck ive watched 3 diff videos i keep ending up with wrong answer
I got one last try or else they mark me down on hw
can you take a picture without the text being cut off?
you know how to find the average slope?
Kinda yeah
I jist tried it again
what did you get?
I got 1.0080
are you looking for exact or decimal answers?
Yeah decimal answers
I did f(1)-f(6)/1-6
mud ツ
it should be $\frac{f(6)-f(1)}{6-1}$
mud ツ
it should be the same though...
somewhere...
yes
Thank you i see
Now can you show me how to approach the second one if you dont mind?
do you know what the mean value theorem states?
Like f(b)-f(a)/b-a?
kind of
if f is differentiable on (a, b) and continuous on [a, b], then there is at least one number c in (a, b) such that $f'(c) = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$
mud ツ
So i need to differentiate f?
yes
So just 5/x^1/2
yes
Then i plug in c?
So how do i take 5/x^1/2 to find c?
plug c into the derivative function, and equate that to what you found in the first part
Ok so 5/x^1/2=2.8989
Ohhhhh
to be honest, it's probably easier if you have the exact answer
exact answe?
of the average slope
So i shouldnt round my answer for the slope?
that's right
hm
2.97474488 for the full answer
Yeah thats a lot easier
10sqrt6-5/x^1/2?
there shouldn't be x anywhere...
remember that you plugged in c for x?
so $2\sqrt{6}-2 = \frac{5}{\sqrt{c}}$
mud ツ
i would multiply by $\sqrt{c}$ on both sides, so you would get $\sqrt{c}(2\sqrt{6} - 2) = 5$
mud ツ

15cos2θ + 20sin2θ + 7 = 0 for 0<=θ<=180 degrees
<@&286206848099549185>
@brittle widget Has your question been resolved?
uh, I don't know how to explain this
5(3cos2θ+4sin2θ)=-7
3cos2θ+4sin2θ=-7/5
3cos2θ+4sin2θ+4=-7/5+4
3cos2θ+4(sin2θ+1)=-7/5+4
3(cosθ^2-sinθ^2)+4(2sinθcosθ+sinθ^2+cosθ^2)=-7/5+4
3(cosθ+sinθ)(cosθ-sinθ)+4(sinθ+cosθ)^2=-7/5+4
(sinθ+cosθ)(3(cosθ-sinθ)+4(sinθ+cosθ))=13/5
wait I replied too early
Not necessarilY
(sinθ+cosθ)(3(cosθ-sinθ)+4(sinθ+cosθ))=(sinθ+cosθ)(7cosθ+sinθ)=13/5 and I actually have genuinely no idea how to proceed from here I feel like what I did was useless
expanding, we get 6cosθ^2+8sinθcosθ=8/5
I feel like you find the answer through discriminants
b^2-4ac__>__0
So like
sinθ^2-3/5__>__0 which is weird
