sina wile sona e nasin Sinu pi kipisi sike la o ni:
- o sitelen e kiki. kiki ni li jo e kipisi sike wan sama kipisi wan pi tu tu sike. o pana e nimi tawa kipisi sike ale pi kiki suli ni.
- o kama sona e kipisi sike pi wile sona pi nasin Sinu.
- nasin sona pi nasin Sinu li ni:
suli pi palisa ni: palisa ni li jo ala e sitelen pi kipisi sike sina li palisa Apane ala / suli pi palisa Apane.
- o kama sona e suli pi palisa ale
- o nanpa
ilo nanpa la o ni:
- o kama sona e sike pi kipisi sike pi wile sona.
- o nena e nena "SIN"
- o nena e nena pi nanpa pi kipisi sike ni
- pona
Kosinu is tomorrow
ni li wawa. I have to get dinner - but after, can I try back-translating to see if I've followed it?
No, the photos and the text go together - they provide the right context!
|| If you want to know the sine method of dividing the circle, do this:
Draw a triangle. This triangle has a part of a circle like one part of 4 of the circle [I'm guessing this is a quarter circle - fractions are difficult in tp!); give names to all parts of the circle of this big fruit (?? or is this a type for kiki? I'm guessing it might be from the diagram. And I love the labels! ||
|| Now that I understand the word you're using for angle: Draw a triangle, This triangle has a right angle. Give names ot all the angles of this big triangle ||
|| find out the part of the circle you want using the sine method
the way of knowing the sine method is this:
the size of this side: this side does not have a drawing of your part of the circle and is not the hypotenuse / the size of the hypotenuse
Oh! does kipisi sike mean angle?? - that makes more sense now ||
|| Trying again: Find out the angle you want using the sine method. The size of this side: this side does not have the marking of your angle nor is it the hypotenuse / the size of the hypotenuse ||
|| Find out the size of all sides.
Calculate ||
|| With your calculator, do this:
find out the (should sike be suli - size?) of the angle you want.
press the SIN button
key in the number of this angle
you're done ||
wawa a!
It was a typo, it is supposed to be kiki
It was really well explained!
It really is. Geometry is a little easier - but once you get to trying to deal with proportions, fractions etc., it's difficult.
Yeah fractions are tough
