Sorry, it's in french but I think I'm missing something
On dit de cette fonction qu'elle est "radialement" continue en 0
So, I have a function continuous and we want to know if it's continuous in (0,0) too, so we used the polar coordinate system and we found that the lim of f is 0
Oh, un français
par contre ça c'est pas exactement vrai
limite de cette quantité à theta fixé
comment ça ?
c'est pas pareil que limite de cette quantité quand theta a le droit de bouger comme il veut, tant que r->0
oh okay
mais comment on sait que l'on ne peut pas majorer par une fonction indépendante de thêta ?
bah là c'est un peu compliqué de l'exprimer en fonction de theta
mais en fonction de x,y on a (x,y) = (t,t^2) qui est un chemin continu qui tend vers (0,0)
et pourtant f(x,y) tend pas vers 0
donc je te laisse trouver à quel (r,theta) ça correspond
r = racine(x^2+y^2)
et tan(theta) = y/x
le chemin?
et quand on applique f à ce chemin on trouve 1/2 ?
oui, tu peux le voir facilement
à cette courbe en fait
f(t,t^2) = t^4/(t^4+t^4)
oui = 1/2
donc effectivement, même si f est radialement continue
elle n'est pas continue pour autant
le besoin de laisser theta bouger comme il veut est important
croissant tres bien 👍🏻
donc voilà finalement tu aurais besoin, si tu voulais prouver que f est continue en (0,0)
de montrer que $|f(x,y)-f(0,0)|\leq g(r) \to 0$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
avec $g$ une fonction indépendante de $\theta$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
et là c'est pas possible parce qu'on ne peut pas majorer par une constante indépendante de thêta
on peut pas majorer par une fonction indépendante de theta qui tend vers 0
ah je vois
on peut majorer par 1/2
mais bon 1/2 ça tend pas vers 0
mais on pourrait quand meme majorer
ouais je vois le truc
okay merci beaucoup pour ces explications !
faut montrer exactement ça
sinon
tu trouves un chemin continu qui tend vers (0,0)
tel que f(chemin) tend pas vers f(0,0)
L'idée est la même pour montrer qu'une fonction f définie sur R^2 \ {(0,0)} a / n'a pas de limite en (0,0)
suffit de remplaçer "f(0,0)" par la présumée limite "L" si tu veux prouver qu'il y a une limite
Sinon pour prouver qu'elle n'existe pas, tu trouves deux chemins qui tendent vers (0,0) qui n'ont pas la même limite
donc dans ce cas là, L = 0 c'est ça ?
dans notre exemple tous les chemins "ligne droite" tendent vers 0
donc si la limite elle existe ça devrait être 0
donc dans notre exemple, si tu veux deux chemins qui n'ont pas la même limite
tu prends un chemin ligne droite au pif
mais on a trouvé un chemin tel que f(chemin) ne tend pas vers 0
ça te donne une première limite potentielle "0"
et voilà tu prends comme deuxième chemin (t,t^2)

Hi, I have some problems with I2, I have to find that it's conditionally convergent by using the Abel's criterion but I don't see how I can do this
bread
don't worry
?
I mean, we have to take 1/t² for the decreasing function so for the integral we have to take sin(1/t²)
and this is the problem
for I(2) use sub : 1/t = y , -1/t² dt = dy
yep
and I don't know how to do I3 
I(2)=I(3)
i can help you to find the value of I(3) but i cant prove if it converge
yeah fine
is there a Fresnel integral too?
try the substitution of u=1/t^2, then use abel's criterion
I'll try
can you just use Dirichlet's test
don't know this
i believe they are the same
oh okay
nevermind
are you already given that I(3) is convergent?
they are different
no
who is different ?
dirichlet suggests one of the products partial integral must be bounded
and the other has to be monotonic tending to 0
so I have the integral of 2u*sqrt(u) sin(u)
and now I have to use the Abel's criterion?
it's possible
u = 1/t^2
du = -2t^(-3) dt
but since t=1/√u (by substitution)
dt = -(1/2)u^(-3/2)du
so you get
-∫usin(u)*(1/2)u^(-3/2)du from inf to 0
we change variables from 0 to inf by considering the negative sign
why do you have u^(-3/2) in the expression of dt?
I have u^(-1/2)
maybe I'm missing something 
oh sorryyy
I'm stupid
so yes I have this integral
okay I just finish the exercise thank you for your help!

can u tell me why antiderivative at a point gives all the area before that point
The fundamental theorem of calculus is a theorem that links the concept of differentiating a function (calculating its slopes, or rate of change at each point in time) with the concept of integrating a function (calculating the area under its graph, or the cumulative effect of small contributions). Roughly speaking, the two operations can be tho...
im working on this but u dont need to read it
well the answer is on that page
also "can u tell me why antiderivative at a point gives all the area before that point"
is a wrong statement
difference of antiderivative evaluated at two points gives the area bounded by those two points
yea
i know
but its said that
the antiderivative evaluated at a point gives area of whatever curve lies before that point
may i recommend 3b1b's essence of calculus
scroll down to "proof of second part"
bro just give me the jist or write in a paper so i can follow up i am done reading the same shi 5 hrs st

your higness
man i didnt understand shiiit
@next yacht do you wanna apologize to me there at least
i think i saw that
okay okay, im sorry sister
something something integrals are actually real-valued linear operators on a function space
BRO WHY AM I BLUE AGAIN
but a different blue
wtf is up with the colors today
i suggest u to just skip the proof then
come back to it later
,, g(x) = \int f(x),
\int ^a _0 f(x)
revolutionary latex
David (דוד)
I know I am bad 😭
bro watched it for 2 mins 💀💀
Then I think g(a) equals the thing on the right
These two things are subtly different
The indefinite integral of f(x) will include a +C. The definite integral of f(a) da from 0 to x will not
LOL
u know?
antiderivative works like area tracker.
at any point on the graph
tell tell
it tells you how much total area has been accumulated under the curve
yea
starting from some fixed point
This thing works becoz
yes yes i wanna know that
differentiation and integration are inverse processes
ok?!
and the
fundamental theorem of calculus guarantees that
if you take an antiderivative
its derivative will match the original function
meaning that
it perfectly tracks how much area grows
u understood?
well i didnt digest that
okay lemme explain
imagine that
you are filling a tank
with water using something
where the flow rate changes over time
like f(x)
The antiderivative is like a gauge that shows how much water has been added up to any moment
meaning
it accumulates all previous flow rates
into a single number
understood now?
where did u go?
ill try to understand mathematically
because it's really the definite integral that tells you that
can i tell what i know 1st
go ahead
well can we start from why definite integral gives the area under the curve
between two points
i had managed to mathematically find that the derivative of area function is f(x)
so its antiderivative is A(x)
and i dont know how the limits are arranged in that integral sign and why the definite integral evaluated at b gives all the area before b and definite integral evaluated at a gives all the area before a
and when we minus that we get the area of the curve
what?!?
ok, your writing is very hard to digest
and also wrong, because that's not what the definite integral is doing
I would say not to look into it too much until you take analysis. just think that the limit of riemann sums is conveniently defined such that for your integrable function on the x-y plane, a definite integral will line up correctly with the area under the curve
Are you familiar with summation?
yep
Sorry but what exactly are you asking? Like whats the question?
first u can explain why definite integrals give the area between two points and also why the definite integral evaluated at a certain point gives area all teh way before that point
Ok do you know what the bounderys on the integral sign mean?
What the definite integral does is summate all the area in infinitly small pieces through the boundery a to b
While the indefinite integral finds a general equation to the area of the function
Ill try to graph something for you
ok
in this graph, the function is f(x) so the indefinite integral or antiderivative of the function would be x^2
Meaning, if you would want to find an area between say 1 - 5, you would use the fundemental theorem of calculus
yes understood
well how ??
If you would take the definite integral between 1 - 5 you would get an area of 24
Sure
ok then wait
man
phone dead
wait
fuc
is there a way to do it from laptop
???
until then lemme tell what i know
Yes
few mins and it will be open
i took y=f(x) plotted on the x y plane
i took point x , x distance away from the centre and assumed the area between x and o is given by A(x) similarly i took delta x (h) , the area between h and 0 given by a(x+h)
the area of teh thin strip is given by A(x+h)-A(x) equivalent to h*f(x)
then i divided both sides by h and took limit as h approaches zero
this gives derivative of area and as the change in area for h approaches zero the derivative of A(x) =f(x)
which imply its antiderivative
antiderivative of fx is A(x) area function ( well im still not familiar with area function i just learned or rather have seen it today)
“distance away from the centre”?
um
by “area between x and o”, do you mean “area under f(x) between x and o”?
yea area between f(x) and 0
by “area between h and o”, do you mean “area under f(x) between x+h and 0”?
f(h) is very very near the origin
A(a+H)
no
I think you mean x+h because you say A(x+h)
h is the small difference that is close to 0
nooo to x
tf
x is x distance away from centre
and h is h distance away from the centre
and you’re taking $\lim_{h\rightarrow0}$?
blahaquil
so if x=like 100 surely the difference between x and h is massive
no
sir I think you mean x+h
well exactly 100 as h approaches zero which actually isn’t that massive
you are thinking of taking a very thin strip right
thats only possible when you take the difference between x and x+h
h is the tiny tiny difference
yep
but the actual second value is x+h
yes
yea
ok so we’re on the same page now?
then assuming u mean those things yea thats accurate
exactly wow yes genius of our time 🤩
no
wait lemme scroll up
I’ve only been reading this
yea
yea
read
then from that it came as
that
the derivative of the area is f(x)
yea
yea
so from that point can u tell me how to get the area between two points
from all that
and what i am missing
A(b)-A(a)
ya
that definite integral with a and b in the integral symbol will calculate the area between two points via this right
yes
in our case integral of f(x) came A(x)
can we say it as the A(x)-A(0) similarly like that
??
am i wrong or correnct in this one
umm
ok see
the indefinite integral
is actually like a family of functions
a family of antiderivatives
bc of the PLUS C
thats indefinite integrals
we still dont know
the c
that corresponds to our
function
like since we have no bounds on an indefinite integrals we adjust for the lower bound with the C
and we plug the upper bound in
thats the thought behind why it’s useful in the first place
that also makes mathematical sense since differentiating constants =0 and so they’re all the same in their derivative
idk man
yea
the A(x) you’re talking about is probably an indefinite integral with C=0
no its above the centre wait if my mobiles charged ill pinge u
@leaden marsh
lmao
camera bro
wait what’s ur question????
find the are aunder curve yea do that
what 😭
the area under curve from where to where??
from any point a to b
in general it’s just A(b)-A(a)
like proof
what
dude
like
if you truly want to understand a riemann integral
you need to read an analysis book
the area from 0 to b minus the area from 0 to a is the area from a to b
is that reimman integral?
yes
you mean like 0 to h and o to x
although we just said “let A(x) be the area” and thats the tricky part
0 to x+h and 0 to x
yea
and
yea
what are u trying to do rn 😭
what are you trying to prove
trying to prove that
the area between two points a and b is A(b)-A(a)
do u get me
you just have to say “observe that the area from 0 to some point b minus the area from 0 to some point a must equal the area from a to b, therefore the area from a to b is A(b)-A(a)”
which is what I’ve been telling you 😭
wait wait wait and i dont get putting the bounds in the integral sybol can i put bounds after saying that
???
like if you want a more accurate proof
you would need to use some more rigorous tools to do this than what you're doing right now
you need to like really REALLY study analysis
yes. as I said, this is an analysis thing
I can point you to some good reading on the construction of the riemann integral if you'd like
thats a Riemann sum
but bro ??
do kids not get the accumulation function seminar before studying integration anymore or like 😭
chapter 4.2
the fact is im 16
and our collage do not teach
this
or
neither any collage in our country
i jus wanted to know
so you have 2 options
- give up because elementary calculus doesn't have the tools for this
- study analysis
(3. be a genius and develop the rigorous theory independently)
studying analysis is what is even that all about
im literally in middle school jus u need RIGOR man
(>13 don’t shoot me)
hum
it’s like the formal study of functions
whats ur age
i am not telling u that information 👍
i would think smaller your age
that doesnt matter tho
like abt this you just need to define notation from there if we’re working at such a coarse level
yea
you can study a lot of analysis before a lot of calc tbh
huh
continue
like literally just define $A(b)-A(a)=\int_a^b f(x) dx$
blahaquil
yea
or better yet define indefinite notation when you’re defining A the first time
thats what im trying to do
ok so then you have it
have what
wait what are you saying here ?
by define i literally just mean “let this symbol mean this”
i wanna know why the definite integral gives the area between two points in a curve which this picture shows isnt it ??
or if you define the indefinite integral beforehand you have more justification
'""
what's the question?
this?
this is not strictly true in the way you think it is
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwat
the C accounts for the lower bound
yep
tf
we plug in the upper bound as the x-value after we evaluate the integral
look think of it as an accumulation function
you're undergrad or high school?
like how can i tell this education system im in the 11th now
lmao
what is evn that
highschool in america is like collage no before uni
he's a high schooler
wait is 11th grade college for you?
tyapa
what
um
Depends on where you're from - in the UK we call the two years before university "sixth form" or college
i see
but that's just a matter of naming
In that case, do you know how to approximate the area underneath a graph over an interval?
If I asked you to use four rectangles to approximate the area of x^2 between 0 and 1 do you know what to do?
also where are you from?
just answer yes or no
yea base times height for 4 rectanglesand sum
how do you get the height?
f(x)
where on f(x)
the first rectangle represents [0,0.25) right?
huh
the base
The first rectangle you draw represent 0 to 1/4 on the domain
i just drew it without considering any points and all
can you vc?
vc? what is that
voice
are there no voice channels anymore
lmao what are these voice channels and where are they

Is this a proper generalization, normal subgroups are just elements that do not commute with all elements in the main group
im not sure i understand what you mean
like
if there is a group H which is a subgroup of G
and there is an $h \in H$ which does not commute $\forall g \in G$
can i stop here and just say H is not normal?
h does not commute with what?
@potent lotus sorry fixed it
BOSS
so, for each g I would need to get the left and right cosets until one is not equal?
for all $g\in G$, we require $gH = Hg$
flying_fly
but this doesn't mean $gh = hg$ individually for every $h\in H$
flying_fly
ah
hmm that makes sense
but if it does not commute, we can easily prove its not equal right
or do we have to write out the entire left and right coset each time
yeah, you want to work with cosets as opposed to individual elements
i am hesitant to say you "have to" do this because you will learn other ways to determine whether a subgroup is normal
if a single element does not commute, it's still possible for $H$ to be normal. for example in the dihedral group $D_n$, the subgroup of rotations is normal, even though most rotations don't commute with reflections
flying_fly
the stubgroup of reflections is not tho for the reason that they do not commute
hmm
but yeah i get what ur saying
you do have to kinda check and look at the entire coset
the set of reflections isn't a subgroup of Dn
because this in my mind is the group generated by r
tbh im just revising factor/normal subgroups so i can understand the first isomorphism theorem better
@twin raptor if ur still here
lets say im trying to prove that $H = eH = hH \quad \forall h \in H$

u=1/x
Can i show u what i did
Go
They dont teach us substitution here they instead tell us to modify the differential
Which ig is the same thing
Before doing by parts
Yes
1 sec have to write it clearly
Something went awfully wrong here
Thats what they tell us to do
Integrate one of the functions in our head and put it in the differential
Which is just the long formula for by parts
,w integrate arctan(x)/x^2
Im down to the integral of dx/x(x^2+1)

@turbid stratus det keeps track of how the vectors are oriented. if they follow the right hand rule then det>0, otherwise det<0
if u dont wanna care about orientation then u need to say area=|det|
Can you tell me what math is this
This is precalc, specifically for competition (from Volume 2 by Aops, chapter 11 to be exact)
Ok, but since my answer is exactly negative of the determinant, does my mistake have to do with the orienation?

please help i have no idea what to do
so i used quadratic formula
answers are 2+-sqrt5
only 2-sqrt5 can work in inverse sin, so I use that
its negative so I add 2pi
im not sure what else to do
alright, so given your larger value is correct
first do 6.0449 - 2pi
then use the identity sin(pi - x) = sin(x)

then i put that into the first equation:
2(1-z) -4y = 10
and i wrote in terms of y
y = .5z -2
and then z = 1-x
But now I'm lost as what to do?

ok I think that the point was to solve for x, y, z in terms of w (where they let w be p for some reason)
,w rref{(2,-4,0,10),(0,2,w,2),(1,0,1,1)}
so basically just rref the coefficient matrix
and how do u arrive at that answer
because I thought u had to write in terms of x y z
this is your coefficient matrix after you rref [A|b]
and this is that vector b, which represents the solution (x,y,z)
you should see that it matches the given answer
You do elementary row operations?
Consider doing $R_1-2R_3 \to R_1$ and $R_2-wR_3 \to R_2$
Civil Service Pigeon
Note that this is not the only valid set of row operations you can do
As an exercise, figure out some other ways yourself
@gaunt hornet Are you there?
Yeah that's what I said
and make that the new row 1
Note that I'm using two elementary row operations at once - I'm multiplying row 3 by a nonzero scalar (namely -2), then I'm adding that scalar multiple of row 3 to row 1.

Hi so I didn't see this at first and I cross multiplied it and got a quadratic where lambda = 2/3 and 1. Why can't it be 1?
this is part of the solutions to part iii
what exactly did you do? Multiplying both sides by lambda+1 just gives a linear equation whose only solution is lambda=2/3
uhh did i do a silly mistake
The other solution of 3lambda^2+lambda-2=0 is negative 1, not positive 1, which you can eleminate since that results in a division by 0 in the original equation
OH thank you!

what did I do wrong for this question. currenly using completing the square method.
it says + 5/2 x
yeah so it's not (x - 5/2)^2 but... ?
ohh, so like the - in the brackets is not fixed but rather referring to the bx of the equation?
wat
yeah so the sign has to match
if you see +5x then it splits as +5/2 x and +5/2 x
hence (x + 5/2)^2
so you end up with $x + 5/2 = \sqrt{49/4}$ instead

everything else actually doesn't change

a-2b+c=0
6a+5b-4c=0
how do i find a : b : c from this?
i was doing a 3d geometry question and got stuck on this
!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
I don't think it's possible
it is
You need 3 equations to solve an equation in 3 variables
Oh
there's infinite solutions in that ratio then
(a,b,c) is a direction ratio
but i need to know where OP is
dread is OP?
idk ive never solved triple ratio before
yes
ooh okay well what comes to your mind
how do you THINK this would be solved
doesnt matter if it's wrong
i tried to add an eqn a^2+b^2+c^2=1 so itll become a direction cosine and i can find it
but solving that was too lengthy
you dont need to do all that, it's pretty simple
so
lets see
the problem at hand
we have 2 equations only
let's for a sec imagine we had 3
what would we do first
eliminate a variable
perfect
wait
use the first eq to write an expression for 1 var in terms of the other 2
let's use a since it's the easiest to work with here
you dont necessarily need to do that
not quadratic
once you form an eq in 2 variables
you can find the ratio bw them
so let's say you find b=x*c
then you use that expression for b in your expression of a
a was originally alpha*b + beta*c for instance
but after substituting b in terms of c you'll get a in terms of only c
then write it as a:b :c
and replace them all in terms of c
and simplify!
if you want i can spoiler tag the answer
||3:10:17|| click this for the answer
i gtg, good luck!
thanks i got it
do you know how they've done it in this solution
@fallow haven Has your question been resolved?

What to do?
Is this an ongoing test?
Is it -cot(x/2)
No lol
Idk..
i cant make the rest
Its just homework
maybe we should write cos(x) as 1-2sin²(x/2)?
i tried to do that but it becomes 0/0
i might be wrong somewhere
Idk im pretty bad with integration
How
gimme a sec i will do it again i probably made a mistake somewhere
ohk
They used them to get from the top integral to the one I sent, idk if using them again helps..
use those substitution , its a pretty neat sub
u got the answer?
Yea
This is where im at idk
Lol
IM LOST
@covert orchid u got this method ???
Its alr

Anyone know how to continue with this method ?
Ty for trying too🫡

btw i got stuck here so
i forgot what i did afterwards
in general, you feel stuck in integrals involving trigonometric functions, you may consider Weierstrass's substitution
see my comment above
oh
im gonna note that down
thx!
Im using weierstrass substitution here I think (?)
weierstrass substitution is "let t = tan(x/2), then dx = 2dt / (1 + t²), ..."
that's tangent half-angle substitution
For clarification
What are the boxed formulas called
whats boxed?
ive never seen them in my books or anything
Oh hahah
So I think the right one in the second box weierstrass substituion and the other two are tangent half angle substitution
if you feel that you can do every exercise question easily in your book, you should change to a more challenging book, so that youi can learn better and harder math]
i wish i knew that when i was a high school student
🫂
Can someone please explain what to do when I have variable t in my function and dx from integral
If i substitute back tan(x/2) im stuck again
see my above comment
.
Something is wrong
the purpose of Weierstrass method is to replace everying containing "x" with something involving t, so you don't "substitute back" before integration
,rccw
please rotate your image so that it's easier to read for PC users
you don't mix t and x in one line containing the integral sign
when you do substitution, you need to do so thoroughly
I will do it again from beginning
to check your work in tests/exams, you may differentiate your result and see whether it matches the integrand
that's sth you can do alone in exams

Does Cos(5n)/n series diverge or converge
Actual series we have to find(if it converges or diverges)
it is inappropriate to replace the numerator with cos(5n).
$\cos^2(5n)$ is bounded between 0 and 1, therefore the numerator is bounded between $\sqrt{2}$ and $\sqrt{3}$ and we can safely pretend it is constant
Ann
the denominator behaves like n.
then it diverges
<@&268886789983436800>
to be more "rigorous" (even though what we did is fine), we can now see that a lower bound is more important since we want to show divergence. With what was previously established, we can say the general term is lower bounded by $\frac{\sqrt 2}{n}$
rafilou is not not born in 2003
with its associated series diverging
btw op has disappeared
oh right huh xd
@nimble portal wake up
So that means you can use the test where if a smaller series diverges so does the bigger one, since 1/n diverges so does (sqrt(2) + cos(5n))/n
how did $\sqrt{2} + \cos(5n)$ happen?
Ann
Just simplify the numerator of the original series

how come is this true
questions is to prove true or false
per the reasoning this, i dont rewally understand
i thought false as f(0) = 1 but saying f(c) = c^3
would be f(0) = 0
however im aware my undertsanding of funcitons is flawed here lmao but idk how
so f(c) and f(x) are differnet?
it doesn't say that f(c)=c^3 is supposed to hold for ALL c
only that there EXISTS a value of c where these match
oh yea
