-1 = -b/2a
yeah but is that b = 28 or b = -28?
if you put b = -28 then it'll be -(-28) = +28
+28/28 = 1

i dont understand when i plug in -3 into the equation i get 1 why is it giving me 1.5
you shouldnt get 1
and i can plug -3 since denominator doesnt equal zero
i thought denominator shouldnt equal zero tho
i thought it equalled -18 when i did it on the calculator
oh right mb it is zero
can i do this tho?
i like the spirit of the idea, but no it doesnt work like that
try factorising the denominator
i js solved it and got 1.5 thank u

In a triangle ABC, P is a point on AB . PR is drawn parallel to BC such that PR=BC and PR intersects AC at Q. Show that area of triangle AQR = area of triangle BPQ.
found that PRCB was a parallelogram , angle PQC=angle AQR ( vertically opp), and then I'm kinda stuck now
Have you sketched a diagram for this? And/or roughly identified a direction to proceed?
!status
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
@spiral rover Has your question been resolved?
I'll send it in a min
1
I mean i found a few statements but I'm not sure where I'm going with that
the image is loading sideways , but this is the diagram
- Draw heights $h_1$ from A to PR and height $h_2$ B to PR
one thing when you think of areas is look at best heights and bases you can compare
timuko
!nosols
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.
oh right
In this problem, you need to prove that PQ.h_1 = QR.h_2
so if PR=BC=x and I take PQ = a , I can write QR as x-a?
ar(BPQ) = (1/2) (x) (h2) and ar(AQR) = (1/2)(h1)(x-a)
Given that PR is parallel to BC, what follows after it?
PR also equal to BC, so PRBC is a parallelogram ( then BP also parallel to CR), and in terms of something that hepls with the height or relavent angles, I'll think for a moment and tell
The fact that PQ and BC are parallel might be useful
ifI take trapezium PQCB and join CP, I get area of CPQ =area of BQP ( same base and b/w same parallel lines)
my brain isnt working for this sum , and I missed a lot of my plane geometry classes
Angles APQ and B are equal, as well as AQP and C
What we can conclude from that?
BAC similar to PAQ
and sides are in proportion, so
AP/PB = AQ/QC= PQ/BC
and I remember learning something abouts heights also being in proportion
Im gonna check what that was
is PQ/BC = h1/h2 = AQ/QC
oh right sorry
my bad
angle PRC= angle B (the parallelogram) and it was already equal to APQ(corresponding angles)
so CP parallel to AR
Not always
So PQ/BC = h1/(h1+h2)
yeah\
1 min
I think I can try to solve here now
@wheat flint thanks
I got it now
I was being very dumb (sorry for that)

The 11th question
What step are you stuck at?
Basically I tried to take in terms of sin and cos
Then I tried rationalising it
Idk why
Then I got stuck
Can I see your steps
Ohhh
Uuh
Ok
I can't find the book where I did it first
But I wrote it again
I then squared it
And simplified the denominator
Instead converting in terms of sin and cos you could write 1 in terms of sec and tan
I had about the same problem when i was in 10th grade
1 = sec^x - tan^x
So should i rationalise first?
No just find away to cancel out terms in the numerator and denominator
No to like square it
So I can use this
I don't get what you mean sorry
You should get this
You can separate the terms secx + tanx in the numerator
And that's basically it

ok
so
i have this
these are the answers
if you think about it, the answer for part c is obviously k>1
I can use the graph to kinda cheese my way into saying it
but is there an algebra method to this or nah
actually
@oak quiver come back man
is it just part c ur having trouble w
like just drawing it and be like tangent = 1 point, if i decrease gradient then it won't cut the line at all hence k >1
for 2 pts
like idk if theres an easy way to do it algebraically
well you're right :D

factorize the denominator
then try to separate the whole thing into two fractions
either by observation or partial fraction decomposition

btw what does this limit even mean? the derivative at a-h ?
it'll tend towards 3*f'(a)
I don't understand this
!occupied
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).
I dont understand.. why is it not the derivative at a-h ?
well it can't be the derivative at a-h
since h->0
so basically if it were the derivative at a-h, then since h -> 0, it'll be the derivative at a
so this limit is exactly equal to lim f(a+h)-f(a)/h?
i think it's easiest to see that
$\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+3h)-f(x)}{h} = 3 \big ( \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+3h)-f(x)}{3h} \big ) = 3 \big ( \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} \big )$
LY
I know this but just not sure if they're still exactly the same after the subsitution a=a-h
i think for this, break it up into 2 pieces
$\lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+2h)-f(x-h)}{h} = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+2h)-f(x)}{h} + \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x)-f(x-h)}{h}$
LY
but after you split it up, the limit might exist while the components not have a limit
i'm not sure what u mean?
the limits exist bcus we know the value of the limits
like if you have a difference f(x)-g(x), then it may have a limit somewhere even if neither f nor g do
but f and g do have a limit in our case
maybe I mixed smth up.. Ok so if this limit exist, can we deduce that f is diff at a?
btw does this limit ( in the pic) mean f'(a) also? Does this limit also exactly equal to lim f(a+h)-f(a)/h after the substition a=a-h? @plucky python
well i'd do the substitution h' = -h
but yeah
yeah i believe so
what context did u see this in?
they're always the same after all kinds of substition?
u'd have to actually substitute it in
and then see that they work out to be the same
yea I know I mean for those valid substitutions? like the substitutions which transform the current form into the lim f(a+h)-f(h)/h form
i'm not sure i understand ur question
ah k
idk if this statement is true or not
i think this statement should be true, but proving it isn't trivial
yalaw
yh, that's just like limit laws

I need help with this
is it neither?
no, there is a solution
no those are all, I know the soultion but I dont understand why
I do even have a video explaining, bu its still a bit hard to get it
whats their solution?
it's just n - 5 right
you can count upwards, so n - 11, n - 9 and so on
no its acutallay n-1
nearest to what is the question
nearest to the larger odd integer
mayeb the translation is the problem, I made sure its right tho
is it possible that they meant n-3 and n-13 is a typo?
oh
it is a national test, so it cant be wrong
this is translated, right?
can you show the non-translated version?
yea
ohhhh im sorryyy
when you translated it, it changed n-3 to n-13 for some reason
yeaaa i see it now
Anyway, let's arrange numbers around n-3 in a row
n-5, n-4, n-3, n-2, n-1, n, n + 1
those are all consecutive integers btw
now notice that odd and even integers alternate
1 is odd, 2 is even, 3 is odd, 4 is even, 5 is odd...
so since n-3 is odd, n-2 must be even
and then n-1 must be odd
n must be even
n+1 must be odd
....
do you follow till now?
O = odd
E = even
since n-3 is odd, n-2 must be even
because it has to alternate
Yeaa, I'm with until this point
ok, so we're looking for the nearest larger odd integer
the next larger integer is n-2
but n-2 is even
so we have to look further
the next one is n-1
and that is odd
so it must be the nearest larger odd integer
I dont understand how you knew the next larger integer
we always get next larger integer by adding 1
the next larger integer to 6 is 6+1 = 7
the next one is 7+1 = 8
the next one is 8+1 = 9
and n-3 + 1 = n-2
so the next larger is n-2
and then n-2 + 1 = n-1
and then n-1 + 1 = n

Wouldn't the distance be 10 units?
Show your work
i mean I did it in my head
the slopes are the same
if one intercepts at -5 and one intercepts at 5
that's a distance of 5
Are you sure it's not the perpendicular distance you need
(0,5)
idk
one of the points of interception is (0,5)
obviously
But what do I do after that
Find the equation of the perpendicular line
Passing through this point
1/2
👍
and we know one of the points that it goes through is (0,5) right/?
Now use the one point form
y-y1=m(x-x1)
Yes
so y-5=1/2(x-0)
Right
Yes
Now can you substitute 1/2x+5 for one of the points
to find the point it intercents
intercepts
Yes
1/2x+5=-2x+5
You've probably got this
3/2x=0?
Wait
We can't use this
why
We already know it passes through (0,5)
So we use the other line
so 1/2x+5=-2x-5
its still 0
wait
its -10
3/2x=-10
so its
x=6.666666666666666666
5/2x
yes x=-4
(-4,3)
Yes

Yes

Let
$S = \left{ \mathbf{x} \in \mathbb{R}^4 \mid x_1 + x_3 - x_4 = x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + x_4 = 0 \right}$
and
$T = \left{ \mathbf{x} \in \mathbb{R}^4 \mid x_1 + x_2 + 2x_3 + x_4 = ax_1 + bx_2 + cx_3 + dx_4 = 0 \right}$
Determine all real values of $a$, $b$, $c$, and $d$ for which the sum $S + T$ is not direct.
\end{document}
ඞඞඞ
if the sum is direct
aka S (+) T
then
S ∩ T = {0}
so if is saying
that the sum is not direct
then
they have a non trivial intersection
how do I do dat
how do I find the intersection
is like 4 equalities
are the four equations equal to zero
cam u tell me if thats true
no they are not
yes they are
all of them are equal to zero
solving the intersection would be equal to solving the system
lets form a system with the four equations and then translate it to a augmented matrix and solve
@hot stone
are you following?
Sorry at work
Yes this is it
The conditions they told you give a set of linear equations
Stick them in an augmented matrix and solve to find the intersection
(My bad I'm likes popping in here between work stuff)
Yea it looks ok i think i cant check carefully rn
As long as it agrees with the equations in the set conditions you should be good
ok
is just that
I really need you to check carefully
is like the only important step before we finish
is not that
I need you to check if the previous steps is fine before I rref into a matrix solver
becaaause
if its alright
then the matrix solver will spit the correct results

Apologies
So I am stuck like getting to understand like how to graph it out
I can get the jist of it like plotting out the main points etc.
but not sure where to go from there
Its very easy
sorry apologies ignore the post but I will put a answer and let me know if its correct if anyone is watching!!

In part a in the answer scheme we use permutation and b we use combination, but how am I suppose to know if its permutation or combination because the question are so similar "How many different codes?" "Find the number of codes" it seems same to me..
does order matter?
uhh in b i guess not since its just numbers
but i dont know about a
is ab1111 the same as ba1111?

What am I doing wrong for this question?
Answer for blank: #1 2/9 is my answer btw
are the vertical and horizontal asymptotes both 2/9?
how did you solve number 1
and the point of discountinuity (5,13/43)?
asking me?
I simplified it to:
((2x + 3)(x-5))/((9x-2)(x-5))
cancelled out x-5
9x - 2 != 0
x != 2/9
seems right to me
and for the horizontal asymptote since the degrees are the same it is the ratio of the leading coefficenents
2/9
I am just gonna guess it's some formating issue
I just wanna make sure I am correct in believing that
yeah the horizontal is 2/9

anyways this is counting incorrectly
youd want to divide by 2! or 3! to remove an overcounting where you are considering actually identical outcomes as distinct
but since youre using 8!, you've already forcibly grouped the R's and the E's together, by only counting RR and EEE as a single letter
there's nothing that needs to be removed
Ohh okay thank u i got it it was explained well 😊

@snow sail can you help me with the (a) as well? why isnt it 6! x 3! x 2! ?

✅
You understand that this is identical more or less to asking how many ways we can select 6 people from the 9 to go in the first group?
usually if youre using factorials in means you're considering order, i mean its a rough rule of thumb, but you should use choose here
ahh sorry i get confused about when to use factorial or permutation/combination.. i can usually tell whether to use permutation or combination because they depend on order but factorial confuses me
factorial is best for dealing with problems where order matters
so if we can put any people in 6 it means order matters and we wont use factorial :-]?
doesnt*
theres no reason to use factorial since it doesnt seem like order matters
if you use factorial anyways, and get the answer right, youll have to reconstruct binomial

I used both trig sub and u sub to find the answer to this question but they gave me different answers. When I plugged in the question into an integral calculator, it showed u sub as the method to get the right answer. This question was on my test and I got it wrong because I didn’t use trig substitution. Can someone help me understand which method to use and the correct answer?

When using lagrange interpolation to write a quadratic equation, and i have one negative x and one positive x, say -3 and 2, is it (x - - 3) (x - 2)?
@raw crater you still need help?
@royal gull Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
yeah
u can just write the (x--3) as (x+3)
(x—3) is x+3 right
no (x-(-3)) is (x+3)
yes
ye pretty sure the answer is -4
ok gimme a sec
are you sure u gave me the right equations
the only matching answer i got was of g(x)
Ok for h(x) its 8=(x - - 3) ( x - 2)
So x= 1 , ( 1 + 3) (1-2)
(4)(-1)
=-4
then i divided 8 by -4
which makes -2
go back to (x - -3) (x -2) and this time multiply them which is
x^2 -5x + 6
multiplied by the -2
so = -2x^2 +10x -12
did i do something wrong during that
picture of the whole thing

i managed to do part a
but how do you do part b?
any tips?
should i sub in z = a + ib and w = c + id
looks like a good start
im just going in circles tbh
i ended up saying that bd = -ac
but not sure how that helps
how did you end up there?
i made it zw* + z*w = 0
and then subbed this in
Hmm I think there might be something
If we use the assumption and square both sides
You end up with 4zw = 0
You can also divide by 4w² since it's not 0
z/w = 0
And now when we use z = a+bi and w = c+id
i didnt ask m8
take a peek lil bro
z/w equals the negative of its own conjugate
what does that say about z/w ?
im not answering your questions
because ur violating
bro its like my first week in maths idc
i didnt sign up for proofs but its compuslory in year 1
if they get you on your nerves you can just ping mods

how is it true that Arg (z1-z2/(z3-z4))=+-pi/2 iff z1 and z2 (making line l) is perp to z3 and z4 (making line L)
because its arg(z1-z2)-arg(z3-z4), the angle is theta1-theta2
oh
would you use angles 0 to 2pi?
so like pi/2-0, pi-pi/2, 3pi/2-pi, 0-3pi/2
giving pi/2, pi/2, pi/2, and -pi/2 as the answers
or is there any sort of restriction?
I dont think there is a restriction
it doesnt have to be limited to 0-2pi
it could literally be like 3pi-5pi/2 and it would still work
Usually with arguments of complex numbers you just consider -3pi/2 to be the same as pi/2, et cetera
oh ok
And angles are determined up to adding an integer multiple of 2pi
right because theres this rule where its like -pi<argz<=pi right?
You can choose any version of that rule
There is also 0 <= arg z < 2pi
As long as the length of the interval is 2pi and only one of the limit points is allowed, it works
And that gives the principal argument
But adding a multiple of 2pi gives another argument, which will not be principal
@silent bramble Has your question been resolved?
im just gonna stay for now in case of more q
@silent bramble Has your question been resolved?
how can you find the angles for (1-i)(-sqrt(3)+i)
I did cos theta= (-sqrt(3)+1/(2sqrt(2))
sin theta =(1+sqrt(3)/2sqrt(2))
tried tan theta = (b/a) too, (b being (1+sqrt(3)...)
I tried multiplying denom by (c-d) if the denom is (c+d)
I cant get a good value to solve for theta
I guess its a case for calculator
for some reason I keep getting 5pi/12 but its 7pi/12
oh all good
oh did you get it or you still need help on this? ping me if you respond
Yess I need help w another q
question says given z, interpret geometrically the vector (cos phi + i sin phi)z
some things I wrote but how do I interpret?
@main oxide
I also have the answers if you want to refer to it
I'm guessing they mean, geometrically what does it look like?
yea
so for instance if you have the vector z and then multiply it by i, what does iz look like?
I'm a little confused by your steps but I think you're close to what it should be with the algebra
does it stretch or rotate z at all?
idk i dont think I learnt this before
for instance if I have the vector z and multiply by 3, then 3z is the same direction as z, but stretched 3 times in length. Similarly, iz changes what z looks like by a stretch or rotation
Its usually plotting but you're given a z and you expand
let's pick an example to graph
z=3+4i graph this and then work out what iz should be and then graph that. did it get longer or shorter? Did it rotate if so by what angle?
ok good so far, now what's iz and graph it on the same picture
yeah perfect
this is a special case of what you were asked to show multiplying z by (cos phi + i sin phi) but picking phi = pi/2
in general geometrically this is what you get, it rotates the vector by the angle phi
to see a bit more from this specific case, if you rotate 90 degrees four times, you end up back where you started right?
similarly i^4 = 1 if you were to multiply i^4 * z = z
hopefully that helps to see the connection between the rotations in the picture and the algebra a bit more
yeah you're welcome!
@silent bramble Has your question been resolved?
how is 2^12(e^(i6pi)) simplified to 2^12?
i don’t know how to simplify further, because there’s no standard angle for (2+5pi/2)
@main oxide
that's ok, not every angle has to be a perfect rational multiple of pi
this one I got!
yea but solution for b) is e^2 i
so theres prob a good way to simplify
ohh
yes
e^2i(e^i5pi/2)
e^(i5pi/2) is e^0 so 1
okok
wait that doesn't look quite right
you added an i on the 2
it's just e^2 not e^{2i}
oh
so if you're thinking re^{i theta} then r=e^2 and theta = 5pi/2
yup!
cool cool
thank you!
yeah you're welcome
ah greek letter zeta $\zeta$
Merosity
hint: think about what happens when you make a full rotation
but e^z means e^x(e^(iy)) and you cant have i to the power of anything
so theres not going to be a rotation?
oh you mean the argument?
ah there is part rotation and part scaling
the e^{iy} part is the rotational part and e^x part is the scaling part
so to break one to one, I'm picturing doing two different rotations that end up landing you in the same place
yeah I think so, I forget the terminology here like "modulus" and "argument" tbh lol
just fancy words for length and angle to me
you mean angle?
so just y would be say, 2pi?
yeah exactly
ok ill be back in like 2hrs

would this use the washer method to find the volume?
im guessing it is integral from 3 to 7 (25/16x^2 - 9) dx
but i got a negative number so i don't think its correct
@main void Has your question been resolved?
Idk if you call it the washer method but personally I have like a rule of thumb
Shell method and disc method
I'm guessing disc method is washer method
I tend to use disc method when rotating around horizontal lines and shell method otherwise
Since you're going around the y-axis here it makes more sense to use the shell metbod
