human | Find the number of ordered pairs $(a,b)$ of complex numbers such that
\[a^3 b^5 = a^7 b^2 = 1.\] |
gpt | From the equation $a^3 b^5 = 1,$ $a^6 b^{10} = 1.$ From the equation $a^7 b^2 = 1,$ $a^{35} b^{10} = 1.$ Dividing these equations, we get
\[a^{29} = 1.\]Therefore, $a$ must be a 29th root of unity.
From the equation $a^7 b^2 = 1,$ $a^{14} b^4 = 1.$ Hence,
\[\frac{a^3 b^5}{a^{14} b^4} = 1.\]This leads to $b = a^{11}... |
human | There exists a scalar $c$ so that
\[\mathbf{i} \times (\mathbf{v} \times \mathbf{i}) + \mathbf{j} \times (\mathbf{v} \times \mathbf{j}) + \mathbf{k} \times (\mathbf{v} \times \mathbf{k}) = c \mathbf{v}\]for all vectors $\mathbf{v}.$ Find $c.$ |
gpt | In general, the vector triple product states that for any vectors $\mathbf{a},$ $\mathbf{b},$ and $\mathbf{c},$
\[\mathbf{a} \times (\mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c}) = (\mathbf{a} \cdot \mathbf{c}) \mathbf{b} - (\mathbf{a} \cdot \mathbf{b}) \mathbf{c}.\]So

human | A line passes through the distinct vectors $\mathbf{a}$ and $\mathbf{b}.$ Then for a certain value of $k,$ the vector
\[k \mathbf{a} + \frac{3}{4} \mathbf{b}\]must also lie on the line. Find $k.$ |
gpt | The line passing through $\mathbf{a}$ and $\mathbf{b}$ can be parameterized by
\[\mathbf{a} + t (\mathbf{b} - \mathbf{a}).\]Taking $t = \frac{3}{4},$ we get
\[\mathbf{a} + \frac{3}{4} (\mathbf{b} - \mathbf{a}) = \frac{1}{4} \mathbf{a} + \frac{3}{4} \mathbf{b}.\]Thus, $k = \boxed{\frac{1}{4}}.$ |
human | Let $S$ be a region in the plane with area 10. When we apply the matrix
\[\begin{pmatrix} 2 & 1 \\ 7 & -3 \end{pmatrix}\]to $S,$ we obtain the region $S'.$ Find the area of $S'.$ |
gpt | Note that
\[\begin{vmatrix} 2 & 1 \\ 7 & -3 \end{vmatrix} = (2)(-3) - (1)(7) = -13,\]so the matrix scales the area of any region by a factor of $|-13| = 13.$ In particular, the area of $S'$ is $13 \cdot 10 = \boxed{130}.$ |
human | Let $\mathbf{M}$ be a matrix, and let $\mathbf{v}$ and $\mathbf{w}$ be vectors, such that

gpt | We can distribute, to get
\begin{align*}
\mathbf{M} (-2 \mathbf{v} + \mathbf{w}) &= \mathbf{M} (-2 \mathbf{v}) + \mathbf{M} \mathbf{w} \\

gpt | Since $\mathbf{m}$ is the midpoint of $\mathbf{a}$ and $\mathbf{b},$
\[\mathbf{m} = \frac{\mathbf{a} + \mathbf{b}}{2}.\]Hence, $\mathbf{a} + \mathbf{b} = 2 \mathbf{m} = \begin{pmatrix} 6 \\ 14 \end{pmatrix}.$ Then

gpt | Converting to degrees,
\[\frac{9 \pi}{4} = \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} \cdot \frac{9 \pi}{4} = 405^\circ.\]Since the tangent function has period $360^\circ,$ $\tan 405^\circ = \tan (405^\circ - 360^\circ) = \tan 45^\circ = \boxed{1}.$ |

\[(2x + x^2)(2x^2 + x^4)(2x^3 + x^6)(2x^4 + x^8)(2x^5 + x^{10})(2x^6 + x^{12}).\] |
gpt | Note that $x^7 = \cos 2 \pi + i \sin 2 \pi = 1,$ so $x^7 - 1 = 0,$ which factors as
\[(x - 1)(x^6 + x^5 + x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + x + 1) = 0.\]Since $x \neq 1,$
\[x^6 + x^5 + x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + x + 1 = 0.\]Then
\begin{align*}
(2x + x^2)(2x^6 + x^{12}) &= 4x^7 + 2x^8 + 2x^{13} + x^{14} = 4 + 2x + 2x^6 + 1 = 5 + 2x + 2x^6, \\

\[\sin 6^\circ \cos 12^\circ \cos 24^\circ \sin 42^\circ.\]Then
\[\sin 6^\circ \cos 12^\circ \cos 24^\circ \sin 42^\circ = \frac{\cos 6^\circ \sin 6^\circ \cos 12^\circ \cos 24^\circ \sin 42^\circ}{\cos 6^\circ}.\]By the ... |

gpt | Since the cosine function has period $360^\circ,$
\[\cos 259^\circ = \cos (259^\circ - 360^\circ) = \cos (-101^\circ).\]And since the cosine function is even, $\cos (-101^\circ) = \cos 101^\circ,$ so $n = \boxed{101}.$ |

human | If
\[\frac{\cos^4 \alpha}{\cos^2 \beta} + \frac{\sin^4 \alpha}{\sin^2 \beta} = 1,\]then find the sum of all possible values of
\[\frac{\sin^4 \beta}{\sin^2 \alpha} + \frac{\cos^4 \beta}{\cos^2 \alpha}.\] |
gpt | We can write the first equation as
\[\frac{\cos^4 \alpha}{\cos^2 \beta} + \frac{\sin^4 \alpha}{\sin^2 \beta} = \cos^2 \alpha + \sin^2 \alpha.\]Then
\[\cos^4 \alpha \sin^2 \beta + \sin^4 \alpha \cos^2 \beta = \cos^2 \alpha \cos^2 \beta \sin^2 \beta + \sin^2 \alpha \cos^2 \beta \sin^2 \beta,\]so

human | The line segment connecting $(-2,7)$ and $(3,11)$ can be parameterized by the equations
\begin{align*}
x &= at + b, \\
y &= ct + d,
\end{align*}where $0 \le t \le 1,$ and $t = 0$ corresponds to the point $(-2,7).$ Find $a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + d^2.$ |
gpt | Taking $t = 0,$ we get $(x,y) = (b,d) = (-2,7),$ so $b = -2$ and $d = 7.$
Taking $t = 1,$ we get $(x,y) = (a + b, c + d) = (3,11),$ so $a + b = 3$ and $c + d = 11.$ Hence, $a = 5$ and $c = 4.$
Then $a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + d^2 = 5^2 + (-2)^2 + 4^2 + 7^2 = \boxed{94}.$ |
human | Find the smallest positive angle $\theta,$ in degrees, for which
\[\cos \theta = \sin 60^\circ + \cos 42^\circ - \sin 12^\circ - \cos 6^\circ.\] |
gpt | We have that
\begin{align*}
\sin 60^\circ &= \cos 30^\circ, \\
\cos 42^\circ &= \cos (360^\circ - 42^\circ) = \cos 318^\circ, \\
-\sin 12^\circ &= -\cos (90^\circ - 12^\circ) = -\cos 78^\circ = \cos (180^\circ - 78^\circ) = \cos 102^\circ, \\
-\cos 6^\circ &= \cos (180^\circ - 6^\circ) = \cos 174^\circ,
