# How do you find the domain and range of 1/(x+1)? Aug 5, 2015 Domain: $\left(- \infty , - 1\right) \cup \left(- 1 , + \infty\right)$ Range: $\left(- \infty , 0\right) \cup \left(0 , + \infty\right)$ #### Explanation: The domain of the function will have to take into account the fact that the denominator of the fraction cannot be equal to zero. This means that any value of $x$ that makes the expression $x + 1 = 0$ will be excluded from the domain. More specifically, you have $x + 1 = 0 \implies x = - 1$ The domain of the function will thus be $\mathbb{R} - \left\{- 1\right\}$, or $\left(- \infty , - 1\right) \cup \left(- 1 , + \infty\right)$. The range of the function will be influenced by the fact that you don't have a value of $x$ for which the function is equal to zero. The range of the function will thus be $\mathbb{R} - \left\{0\right\}$, or $\left(- \infty , 0\right) \cup \left(0 , + \infty\right)$. graph{1/(x+1) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
# Modelling a functional building ## Modelling a functional building • Submitted By: Zzzoe • Date Submitted: 04/02/2014 4:00 PM • Category: Science • Words: 1407 • Page: 6  Introduction: In this task, the building with a roof structure shown above is initially assumed to have a rectangular base of 150m long and 72m wide. The maximum height of the structure should not exceed 75% of its width for stability or be less than half the width for aesthetic purposes. Moreover, the minimum height of a room in a public building is 2.5 m. Under this condition, several questions about the modifications of the structure of the building and the office block inside it are investigated, thus for convenience, this building is modeled in a cross coordinates for investigation. The questions will be discussed again when the rectangular base is change to be 150m wide and 72m long without changing the other sets. Part I: Modeling the structure in cross coordinates When the base of the structure is 150m long and 72m wide, the height of the structure should no exceed 54m for stability or 36m for aesthetic according to the requirements. Calculation: 72m x 0.75=54m 72m x 0.5=36m Because we model the structure in the cross coordinate, the function of the roof structure is modeled to be a quadratic function with the equationaccording to the shape of the structure. And because the open side of the function is pointed downward, therefore a is smaller than 0 and the highest point of the equation is (0, c). Next, we can create a model for the curved roof structure, which has the minimum height of 36m, thus the highest point of the curve is (0, 36). On the basis of these data, we can draw a sketch of the curve of roof structure as shown below. By using the graph and the data, we can find the equation of the parabola which goes through point A, B and C. Calculation: Substitute x=0, y=36 into the equation, we can get Substitute x=36, y=0 and x=-36 y=0 into the equation, we can get After solving the 2x2 system, we can get Finally, we can get that the equation of the parabola is...

                  # Triangular Coordinate System A packed figure which has three sides is known as triangle. Here we will see some properties of triangle. In a triangle the corner Point is known as the vertex of a triangle. In a triangle three vertices are present. The distance measured around a triangle is known as perimeter of a triangle. The sum of interior angles of a triangle is always 1800. Now we will see Triangular coordinate system. For finding the Area of Triangle when coordinates are given we need to follow some steps: Step1: First we will find vertices of triangle. Step2: For finding area, a formula is defined which is given below. The formula is given below. Area of triangle = |Fx (Gy – Fy) + Gx (Hy – Fy) + Hx (Fy – Gy)|, 2 Where ‘Fx’ and ‘Fy’ are the ‘x’ and ‘y’ of ‘F’ point. Step 3: On putting values of all coordinates in formula we get area of triangle. Suppose we have coordinates of a triangle P (3, 5), Q (5, 6) and R (10, 6), then by using these coordinates we find area of triangle. For finding the area of triangle we need to follow above steps. Here coordinates are F = (3, 5), G = (5, 6), H = (10, 6); We know the formula for finding the area of triangle with vertices is given by: Area of triangle = | Fx (Gy – Fy) + Gx (Hy – Fy) + Hx (Fy – Gy) |, 2 Now put the values in the given formula: On putting the values we get: Area of triangle = | 3 (6 – 5) + 5 (6 – 5) + 10 (5 – 6) |, 2 Area of triangle = | 3 (1) + 5 (1) + 10 (-1) |, 2 Area of triangle = | 3 + 5 + 10|, 2 Area of triangle = 18/2; So the area of triangle is 9 inch2. ## Area of Triangle in Coordinate Geometry Area of triangle in coordinate Geometry Coming Soon.. ## Heron's Formula Heron’s formula is used for calculating the Area of Triangle, it uses semi perimeter for calculation of area. Semi perimeter is given by: S = ½ (p + q + r) The area of the triangle by the heron s formula is given as:
# 5.1: Exploring Area under the Curve Difficulty Level: At Grade Created by: CK-12 This activity is intended to supplement Calculus, Chapter 4, Lesson 3. ## Problem 1 – Explore and discover Graph the curve y=x2\begin{align*}y = x^2\end{align*}. Your challenge is to think of at least two ways to estimate the area bounded by the curve y=x2\begin{align*}y = x^2 \end{align*} and the x\begin{align*}x-\end{align*}axis on the interval [0, 1] using rectangles. Use the following guidelines: • all rectangles must have the same width • you must build all your rectangles using the same methods • the base of each rectangle must lie on the x\begin{align*}x-\end{align*}axis Graph y=x2\begin{align*}y = x^2\end{align*} and set your window to [-0.1, 1] for x\begin{align*}x\end{align*} and [-0.2, 1.3] for y\begin{align*}y\end{align*}. Draw your first and second method on the graphs below. For each method calculate the following: • Number of rectangles • Height and width of each one • Area of each • Sum of the area • Which method did a better job? • How could you improve on it? In the following problem, you will examine three common techniques that use rectangles to find the approximate area under a curve. Perhaps you discovered some of these techniques during your exploration in the above problem. The first problem uses rectangles whose right-endpoints lie on the curve y=x2\begin{align*}y = x^2\end{align*}. ## Problem 2 – Using five right-endpoint rectangles Divide the interval [0, 1] into five equal pieces. Enter the information for each interval or rectangle in the table below. Remember that the right endpoint is the x\begin{align*}x-\end{align*}value and the height is the y\begin{align*}y-\end{align*}value of the right endpoint on the curve. Interval Right Endpoint Height Area • Calculate this sum. • Now add up the numbers in the Area column. The formula that can be used to express the total area is: R5R5=0.2f1(0.2)+0.2f1(0.4)+0.2f1(0.6)+0.2f1(0.8)+0.2f1(1.0)or=0.2[f1(0.2)+f1(0.4)+f1(0.6)+f1(0.8)+f1(1.0)]\begin{align*}R_5 &= 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 2) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 4) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 6) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 8) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(1 . 0)\\ & \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \text{or}\\ R_5 &= 0 . 2 [f1(0 . 2) + f1(0 . 4) + f1(0 . 6) + f1(0 . 8) + f1(1 . 0)]\end{align*} • Are these two numbers the same or different? Another way to find the area of the rectangles is using sigma notation. • Write the notation in the x=15x2\begin{align*}\sum_{x=1}^5x^2\end{align*} form. Adjust what is being summed. To sum it on the calculator, use Home > F3:Calc > 4:Sigma for the command with the format: \begin{align*}\sum\end{align*}(expression, variable, lower limit, upper limit) • Does this agree with the answer for the area you found previously? ## Problem 3 – Using five left-endpoint rectangles This problem uses rectangles whose left-endpoints lie on the curve y=x2\begin{align*}y = x^2\end{align*}. Divide the interval [0, 1] into five equal pieces. Enter the information for each interval in the table below. Remember that the left endpoint is the x\begin{align*}x-\end{align*}value and the height is the y\begin{align*}y-\end{align*}value of the left endpoint on the curve. Interval Left Endpoint Height Area • Calculate this sum. • Now add up the numbers in the Area column. The formula that can be used to express this area is: L5L5=0.2f1(0)+0.2f1(0.2)+0.2f1(0.4)+0.2f1(0.6)+0.2f1(0.8)or=0.2[f1(0)+f1(0.2)+f1(0.4)+f1(0.6)+f1(0.8)]\begin{align*}L_5 &= 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 2) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 4) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 6) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 8)\\ & \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \text{or}\\ L_5 &= 0 . 2 [f1(0) + f1(0 . 2) + f1(0 . 4) + f1(0 . 6) + f1(0 . 8)]\end{align*} • Are these two numbers the same or different? • What is the sigma notation for the area of the rectangles? • Use the calculator to find the sum. Does this result agree with the answer above? ## Problem 4 – Using five midpoint rectangles We will now investigate a midpoint approximation. How would you draw five rectangles, with equal width, such that their midpoints lie on the curve y=x2\begin{align*}y = x^2\end{align*}? Divide the interval [0, 1] into five equal pieces. Enter the information for each interval or rectangle in the table below. Remember that the midpoint is the x\begin{align*}x-\end{align*}value and the height is the y\begin{align*}y-\end{align*}value of the midpoint on the curve. Interval Midpoint Height Area • Calculate this sum. • Now add up the numbers in the Area column. • Are these two numbers the same or different? The formula that can be used to express this area is: M5M5=0.2f1(0.1)+0.2f1(0.3)+0.2f1(0.5)+0.2f1(0.7)+0.2f1(0.9)or=0.2[f1(0.1)+f1(0.3)+f1(0.5)+f1(0.7)+f1(0.9)]\begin{align*}M_5 &= 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 1) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 3) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 5) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 7) + 0 . 2 \cdot f1(0 . 9)\\ & \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \text{or}\\ M_5 &= 0 . 2 [f1(0 . 1) + f1(0 . 3) + f1(0 . 5) + f1(0 . 7) + f1(0 . 9)] \end{align*} • What is the sigma notation for the area of the rectangles? • Use the calculator to find the sum. Does this result agree with the answer above? ## Problem 5- Summarize your findings In this activity, you explored three different methods for approximating the area under a curve. The exact area under the curve y=x2\begin{align*}y = x^2\end{align*} on the interval [0, 1] is 13\begin{align*} \frac{1}{3}\end{align*} or 0.333. • Which approximation produced the best estimate for the actual area under the curve? • Describe which factors contribute to left, right, and midpoint rectangles giving overestimates versus underestimates. • What can you do to ensure that all three of these techniques produce an answer that is very close to 13\begin{align*}\frac{1}{3}\end{align*}? Test your conjecture by using evaluating a sum that produces a much more accurate answer. ### Notes/Highlights Having trouble? Report an issue.

# Lesson Planning of Ordinal Numbers Lesson Planning of Ordinal Numbers Subject English Students` Learning Outcomes • Write ordinal numbers. Information for Teachers • When objects are placed in order, we use ordinal numbers to tell their position, i.e. first (1st) second, (2nd). This concept is helpful in descriptive writing and everyday language use e.g. making lists. Ordinal numbers can be used for both people and objects, e.g. ‘first runner’ or ‘third table / third chair in the row’. • Except 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, “th” is added for every number to form ordinal number spellings and words. The yellow table is given you reference. Learn the spelling paste this table in the class. • Ordinal numbers are added to all the numbers. This lesson plan focuses on first ten numbers then teaches them more till hundred. • TIP “ordinal” tell you in what “order” things are? • Tell the students that the order of the number is written in small font above the letter, e.g. 8th not 8th • Cardinal Number: Cardinal numbers are that are only used for counting and are usually called counting numbers. Cardinals are the numbers that are used to determine how many of something there is or the quantity. If you want to know how many of something there is then you have to count them and that is where the cardinal numbers come in. • The lowest cardinal number is one. Zero is not a cardinal number as to count how many of something you have , you have to have something in the first place. • Students should have done number spellings of cardinal number (one to twenty and all the tens, i.e. twenty, thirty etc. up to ninety) before doing this lesson. • While teaching the lesson, the teacher should also consult the textbook where it is required. Material / Resources Writing board, chalk / marker, duster, scotch tape, textbook Introduction • Paste / write/ draw the following information about ordinal numbers and the picture on the board. • (An Ordinal Number is a number that tell the position of something in a list, such as; 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc. • Introduce the topic by telling the students that today they will learn about ordinal numbers (i.e. numbers that tell us the position of people and things) • Brainstorm for everyday examples where ordinal numbers are used. Ask the students to tell about the things/people where we make lists. (Expected answer would be as; Result, sports, items, on a list, seating in the lass, order of the lines at assembly time.) • Ask the students following questions: 1. Who came first in the previous test? 2. Who won the race? 3. Who came second? • Call three students who got the first three positions in their previous test. • Make them stand in the order of their positions: 1st, 2nd, & 3rd. • Make them stand in wrong order, have them help each other line up in the right order. • Write the order on the boar. Be careful to tell them about the order written above the number, e.g. 1st not 1 st s • They have to use the ordinal words. For example, one student can tell the next, “You are third” or “I am first”. Development Activity 1 • Write the words, ‘first’, ‘second’, ‘third’ on the writing board and practice the spellings with the students. • Ask the students to copy these words in their notebooks. Activity 2 Write the ordinal numbers in words from fourth to tenth. • Encourage the student to find out what is similar in spellings. (Expected answer would be as; “th” is added to every number after three for example five-fifth-eight-eighth, nine-ninth. • All the students write the ordinal numbers in words (e.g. ninth) and numbers (e.g. 9th) in their notebooks. (They must also copy the table from the board) • Tell the students that when we write these positions in numbers we write them like this. (take help from the table above and write the ordinal numbers e.g. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc.) Activity 3 Sum up / Conclusion • Take dictation of ordinal numbers. Assessment • When you have finished the dictation, ask the students to check each other`s work and give marks. • Take a round in the class and ask every student about their score. • Make the first; second and third witness stand and whole class clap to them. • Take a short quiz of students by asking them questions about position of his /her students sitting in the class, e.g. “Who is sitting on the 5th desk in the 1st row?” etc.
## How do you find the median of 7 numbers? Add up all of the numbers and divide by the number of numbers in the data set. The median is the central number of a data set. Arrange data points from smallest to largest and locate the central number. This is the median. ## How do you calculate the median of a sample? The median is different for different types of distribution. For example, the median of 3, 3, 5, 9, 11 is 5. If there is an even number of observations, then there is no single middle value; the median is then usually defined to be the mean of the two middle values: so the median of 3, 5, 7, 9 is (5+7)/2 = 6. 30 percent ## How do you calculate the mean step by step? Step-by-Step Process to Find the Mean Step 1: Add up all the numbers. The result is called the sum. Step 2: Count how many numbers there are. This number is called the sample size. ## What is the median of a set of numbers? The median of a set of data values is the middle value. Half the data values are less than or equal to the median. Half the data values are greater than or equal to the median. ## Which is the formula for determining mode? The three central measures of tendency are mean median and mode….Mode Formula Calculator. Mode Formula = L + (fm – f1) x h / (fm – f1) + (fm – f2) = 0 + (0 – 0) x 0 / (0 – 0) + (0 – 0)= 0 80.5 ## How do you calculate mean median and mode? How to find the mean, median and mode: MEAN 1. Step 2: Add the numbers up to get a total. Example: 2 +19 + 44 + 44 +44 + 51 + 56 + 78 + 86 + 99 + 99 = 622. 2. Step 3: Count the amount of numbers in the series. 3. Step 4: Divide the number you found in step 2 by the number you found in step 3. ## How do you calculate learning hours? Once every member of the group has completed the eLearning course, you just add the individual seat times and divide by the number of participants. This will give you the average seat time per learner. ## How do I calculate the mean percentage? To find the average percentage of the two percentages in this example, you need to first divide the sum of the two percentage numbers by the sum of the two sample sizes. So, 95 divided by 350 equals 0.27. You then multiply this decimal by 100 to get the average percentage. So, 0.27 multiplied by 100 equals 27 or 27%. ## What are the median numbers? Median: The middle number; found by ordering all data points and picking out the one in the middle (or if there are two middle numbers, taking the mean of those two numbers). Example: The median of 4, 1, and 7 is 4 because when the numbers are put in order (1 , 4, 7) , the number 4 is in the middle. ## What is mean median and mode math is fun? Mean, median and mode are Measures Of Central Tendency. Example: the arithmetic mean of 3, 7 and 8 is 6. Finding a Central Value. ## How do you calculate time on a task? To calculate a percentage of time on task, simply divide the total number of boxes that indicate a student was on task by the total number of boxes. Research (Rienke) suggests that coaches list at least three times (completing three forms) before they calculate time on task for a given class. ## What is difference between mean and average? The average is the sum of all values divided by the number of values. In statistics, mean is the average of the given sample or data set. It is equal to the total of observation divided by the number of observations. ## What is the formula of mode for grouped data? Mode for grouped data is given as Mode=l+(f1−f02f1−f0−f2)×h , where l is the lower limit of modal class, h is the size of class interval, f1 is the frequency of the modal class, f0 is the frequency of the class preceding the modal class, and f2 is the frequency of the class succeeding the modal class. ## What is the formula for average? Average, which is the arithmetic mean, and is calculated by adding a group of numbers and then dividing by the count of those numbers. For example, the average of 2, 3, 3, 5, 7, and 10 is 30 divided by 6, which is 5. ## How do you calculate average time spent on tasks? Calculate the arithmetic mean or the average time to complete one task by dividing the total time to complete all tasks by the number of tasks completed (n). ## How do you do 40%? To calculate the percentage, multiply this fraction by 100 and add a percent sign. 100 * numerator / denominator = percentage . In our example it’s 100 * 2/5 = 100 * 0.4 = 40 . ## What is an average in statistics? In statistics, an average is defined as the number that measures the central tendency of a given set of numbers. There are a number of different averages including but not limited to: mean, median, mode and range. ## What do maths symbols mean? < Less Than and > Greater Than This symbol < means less than, for example 2 < 4 means that 2 is less than 4. ≤ ≥ These symbols mean ‘less than or equal to’ and ‘greater than or equal to’ and are commonly used in algebra. ## How do you find the median of 15 numbers? The “middle” of a sorted list of numbers. To find the Median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle number. Example: find the Median of {13, 23, 11, 16, 15, 10, 26}. The middle number is 15, so the median is 15. ## How do I calculate the median? Median 1. Arrange your numbers in numerical order. 2. Count how many numbers you have. 3. If you have an odd number, divide by 2 and round up to get the position of the median number. 4. If you have an even number, divide by 2. Go to the number in that position and average it with the number in the next higher position to get the median. ## How do we calculate mode? To find the mode, or modal value, it is best to put the numbers in order. Then count how many of each number. A number that appears most often is the mode. ## What is L in mode formula? The mode of data is given by the formula: Where, l = lower limit of the modal class. h = size of the class interval. f1 = frequency of the modal class. ## What is the math mode? more The number which appears most often in a set of numbers. Example: in {6, 3, 9, 6, 6, 5, 9, 3} the Mode is 6 (it occurs most often). Categories: Blog
# Probability Of Multiple Events – Conditions, Formulas, and Examples The probability of multiple events is an interesting topic discussed in mathematics and statistics. There are instances where we’re observing multiple events and want particular results – when this happens, knowing how to calculate the probability of multiple events comes in handy.The probability of multiple events helps us measure our chances of getting the desired outcomes when two or more vents are occurring. The measured probability will heavily depend on whether the given events are independent or dependent.Seeing that this is a more complex topic than the earlier topics of probability, make sure to refresher your knowledge on the following: • Understand how we calculate probabilities of a single event. • Review what complementary probabilities are. Let’s begin by understanding when we apply the particular probability we’re discussing – and we can do so by studying the spinner shown in the next section.What are multiple events in probability?            The probability of multiple events occurs when we’re trying to calculate the probability of observing two or more events. These include experiments where we’re observing different behaviors simultaneously, drawing cards with multiple conditions, or predicting the outcome of a multi-colored spinner.Speaking of spinners, why don’t we observe the image shown above? From this, we can see that the spinner is divided into seven regions and distinguished by either the region’s colors or labels. Here are examples of multiple events we can check from the spinners: • Finding the probability of spinning a violet or an $a$. • Finding the probability of spinning a blue or a $b$. These two conditions will require us to calculate the probability of two events occurring at the same time. Multiple events probability definitionLet’s dive right into the definition of multiple event probabilities and when they occur. The probability of multiple events measures the likelihood that two or more events occur at the same time. We sometimes lookout for the probability of when one or two outcomes happen and whether these outcomes overlap each other.The probability will depend on an important factor: whether the multiple events are independent or not and whether they are mutually exclusive. • Dependent events (also known as conditional events) are events where a given event’s outcomes are affected by the remaining events’ outcomes. • Independent events are events where one event’s outcomes are not affected by the rest of the events’ outcomes. Here are some examples of events that are dependent and independent of each other. Dependent Events Independent Events Drawing two balls consecutively from the same bag. Finding one ball each from two bags. Picking two cards without replacement. Picking a card and rolling a die. Buying more lottery tickets to win the lottery. Winning the lottery and seeing your favorite show on a streaming platform. Events can also be mutually exclusive– these are events where they can never happen simultaneously. Some examples of mutually exclusive are the chances of turning left or right at the same time. Ace and king cards from a deck are also mutually exclusive. Knowing how to distinguish these two events will be extremely helpful when we learn how to evaluate the probabilities of two or more events that occur together. How to find the probability of multiple events?                We’ll be using different approaches when finding the probability of multiple events occurring together depending on whether these events are dependent, independent, or mutually exclusive. Finding the Probability of Independent Events\begin{aligned}P(A \text{ and } B) &=P(A) \times P(B)\\P(A \text{ and } B \text{ and } C\text{ and }…) &=P(A) \times P(B) \times P(C) \times … \end{aligned}When we’re working with independent events, we can calculate the probability occurring together by multiplying the respective probabilities of the events occurring individually.Let’s say we have the following objects handy: • A bag that contains $6$ red and $8$ blue chips. • A coin is in your purse. • A deck of cards is on your office table. How do we find the probability that we get a red chip and toss the coin and get tails, and draw a card with a heart suit?These three events are independent of each other, and we can find the probability of these events occurring together by first finding the probability that they occur independently.As a refresher, we can find their independent probabilities by dividing the number of outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. Event Symbol Probability Getting a red chip $P(r)$ $P(r) = \dfrac{6}{14} = \dfrac{5}{7}$ Tossing the coin and get a tails $P(t)$ $P(t) = \dfrac{1}{2}$ Drawing a hearts $P(h)$ $P(h) = \dfrac{13}{52} = \dfrac{1}{4}$ \begin{aligned}P(r \text{ and }t \text{ and }h)&= P(r) \cdot P(t)\cdot P(h)\\&= \dfrac{5}{7}\cdot \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot \dfrac{1}{4}\\&= \dfrac{5}{56} \end{aligned} Finding the Probability of Dependent Events\begin{aligned}P(A \text{ and } B) &=P(A) \times P(B \text{ given } A)\\&= P(A)\times P(B|A)\\P(A \text{ and } B \text{ and } C) &=P(A) \times P(B \text{ given } A)\times P(C \text{ given } A\text{ and }B)\\&=P(A) \times P(B|A)\times P(C|A \text{ and } B) \end{aligned}We can calculate for the probability of dependent events occurring together as shown above. Need a refresher on what $P(A|B)$ represents? It simply means the probability of $A$, once $B$ has happened. You’ll know more about conditional probability and be able to try out more complex examples here.Let’s say we want to find out the probability of getting three jacks consecutively if we don’t return the drawn card each draw. We can keep in mind that three events are occurring in this situation: • The probability of getting a jack on the first draw – we still have $52$ cards here. • The probability of getting a second jack on the second draw (we now have $3$ jacks and $51$ cards). • The third event is getting a third jack for the third row – $2$ jacks left and $50$ cards on the deck. We can label these three events as $P(J_1)$, $P(J_2)$, and $P(J_3)$. Let’s work on the important components to calculate the probability of these three dependent events happening together. Event Symbol Probability Drawing a jack the first time $P(J_1)$ $\dfrac{4}{52}= \dfrac{1}{13}$ Drawing a jack the second time $P(J_2|J_1)$ $\dfrac{4 -1}{52 -1} = \dfrac{1}{17}$ Drawing a jack the third time $P(J_3|J_1 \text{ and } J_2)$ $\dfrac{3-1}{51 -1} = \dfrac{1}{25}$ \begin{aligned}P(J_1) \times P(J_2 \text{ given } J_1)\times P(J_3 \text{ given } J_2\text{ and }J_1)&=P(J_1) \times P(J_2|J_1)\times P(J_3|J_1 \text{ and } J_2)\\&=\dfrac{4}{52}\cdot\dfrac{3}{51}\cdot\dfrac{2}{50}\\&= \dfrac{1}{13}\cdot \dfrac{1}{17}\cdot \dfrac{1}{25}\\&= \dfrac{1}{5525} \end{aligned} Finding the Probability of Mutually Exclusive or Inclusive EventsWe may also need to explore if the given events are mutually inclusive or exclusive to help us calculate the probability of multiple events where the outcome we’re looking for do not require all outcomes to occur altogether.Here’s a table that summarizes the formula for mutually exclusive or inclusive events: Type of Event Formula for the Probability Mutually Inclusive $P(A \text{ or } B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A \text{ and } B)$ Mutually Exclusive $P(A \text{ or } B) = P(A) + P(B)$ Keep in mind that we’re now using “or” because we’re looking for the probabilities of events that occur individually or occur together.These are all the concepts and formulas you’ll need to understand and solve problems that involve multiple events’ probability. We can go ahead and try out these examples shown below!Example 1A canvas bag contains $6$ pink cubes, $8$ green cubes, and $10$ purple cubes. One cube is removed from the bag and then replaced. Another cube is drawn from the bag, and repeat this one more time. What is the probability that the first cube is pink, the second cube is purple, and the third is another pink cube?SolutionKeep in mind that the cubes are returned each time we draw another. Since the next draw’s probability is not affected by the first draw results, the three events are independent of each other.When this happens, we multiply the individual probabilities to find the probability of having the outcome that we want. Event Symbol Probability Drawing a pink cube in the first draw $P(C)$ $P(C_1) = \dfrac{6}{24}= \dfrac{1}{4}$ Drawing a purple cube in the second draw $P(C_2)$ $P(C_2) = \dfrac{10}{24}= \dfrac{5}{12}$ Drawing another pink cube in the third draw $P(C_3)$ $P(C_3) = \dfrac{6}{24}= \dfrac{1}{4}$ \begin{aligned}P(C_1 \text{ and }C_2\text{ and }C_3)&= P(C_1) \cdot P(C_2)\cdot P(C_3)\\&= \dfrac{1}{4}\cdot \dfrac{5}{12} \cdot \dfrac{1}{4}\\&= \dfrac{5}{192} \end{aligned} This means that the probability of drawing a pink cube then a purple cube then another pink cube is equal to $\dfrac{5}{192}$.Example 2A book club of $40$ enthusiastic readers, $10$ prefers nonfiction books, and $30$ prefers fiction. Three book club members will be randomly selected to serve as the next book club meeting’s three hosts. What is the probability that all three members will prefer nonfiction?SolutionWhen the first member is selected as the first host, we can no longer include them in the next random selection. This shows that the three outcomes are dependent on each other. • For the first selection, we have $40$ members and $30$ nonfiction readers. • For the second selection, we now have $40 -1 = 39$ members and $30- 1= 29$ nonfiction readers. • Hence, for the third, we have $38$ members and $28$ nonfiction readers. Event Symbol Probability Randomly selecting a nonfiction reader $P(N_1)$ $\dfrac{30}{40}= \dfrac{3}{4}$ Selecting another nonfiction reader $P(N_2|N_1)$ $\dfrac{29}{39}$ Selecting a nonfiction reader the third time $P(N_3|N_1 \text{ and } N_2)$ $\dfrac{28}{38} = \dfrac{14}{19}$ \begin{aligned}P(N_1) \times P(N_2 \text{ given } N_1)\times P(N_3 \text{ given }N_2\text{ and }N_1)&=P(N_1) \times P(N_2|N_1)\times P(N_3|N_1 \text{ and } N_2)\\&=\dfrac{30}{40}\cdot\dfrac{29}{39}\cdot\dfrac{28}{38}\\&= \dfrac{3}{4}\cdot \dfrac{29}{39}\cdot \dfrac{14}{19}\\&= \dfrac{203}{494} \end{aligned} Hence, the probability of selecting three nonfiction readers is equal to $\dfrac{203}{494}\approx 0.411$.Example 3Let’s go back to the spinner that was introduced to us in the first section, and we can actually determine the probabilities of the following:a. Spinning a violet or an $a$.b. Spinning a blue or a red.SolutionLet’s take note of the colors and labels found in each spinner. Color $\rightarrow$Label $\downarrow$ Violet Green Red Blue Total $a$ $1$ $1$ $0$ $1$ $3$ $b$ $2$ $0$ $0$ $0$ $2$ $c$ $0$ $0$ $1$ $1$ $2$ Total $3$ $1$ $1$ $2$ $7$ Take note of the keyword “or” – this means that we account for the probability that either outcome occurs. For problems like this, it’s important to note whether the conditions are mutually exclusive or inclusive.For the first condition, we want the spinner to land on either a violet region or a region labeled $a$, or both. • There are $3$ violet regions and $3$ regions labelled $a$. • There is a $1$ region where it’s both violet and labeled $a$. This shows that the incident is mutually inclusive. Hence, we use $P(A \text{ or } B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A \text{ and } B)$\begin{aligned}P(V \text{ or } a) &= P(V) + P(a) – P(V \text{ and } a)\\&=\dfrac{3}{7} + \dfrac{3}{7} – \dfrac{1}{7}\\&= \dfrac{5}{7}\end{aligned}a. This means that the probability is equal to $\dfrac{5}{7}$.It’s impossible to land on a red region and a blue one all at the same time. This means that these two events are mutually exclusive. For these types of events, we add their individual probabilities.b. This means that the probability is equal to $\dfrac{1}{7} + \dfrac{2}{7} = \dfrac{3}{7}$. ### Practice Questions 1. A canvas bag contains $12$ pink cubes, $20$ green cubes, and $22$ purple cubes. One cube is removed from the bag and then replaced. Another cube is drawn from the bag, and repeat this one more time.

INTRODUCING 5 - days-a-week problem solving session for Math Olympiad and ISI Entrance. Learn More # List of numbers | RMO 2015, Chennai Region Solutions This is a problem from the Regional Mathematics Olympiad, RMO 2015 Chennai Region based on a List of numbers. Problem: From the list of natural numbers 1, 2, 3, … suppose we remove all multiples of 7, all multiples of 11 and all multiples of 13. 1. At which position in the resulting list does the number 1002 appear? 2. What number occurs in the position 3600? Discussion: (Part 1) To find the position of 1002, we must delete all multiples of 7, all multiples of 11 and all multiples of 13 from 1 to 1002. We apply principle of inclusion and exclusion to find that: $1002 - { \left \lfloor \frac{1002}{7} \right \rfloor + \left \lfloor \frac{1002}{11} \right \rfloor + \left \lfloor \frac{1002}{13} \right \rfloor } + { \left \lfloor \frac{1002}{7 \times 11} \right \rfloor + \left \lfloor \frac{1002}{11 \times 13} \right \rfloor + \left \lfloor \frac{1002}{13 \times 7} \right \rfloor } - { \left \lfloor \frac{1002}{13 \times 11 \times 7} \right \rfloor }$ $= 1002 - (143+91+77) + (13+11+7) - 1 = 721$ Hence the position of 1002 is 721 in the list. (Part 2) To find the number in the 3600 position, we assume that it is x. Then $x - { \left \lfloor \frac{x}{7} \right \rfloor + \left \lfloor \frac{x}{11} \right \rfloor + \left \lfloor \frac{x}{13} \right \rfloor } + { \left \lfloor \frac{x}{7 \times 11} \right \rfloor + \left \lfloor \frac{x}{11 \times 13} \right \rfloor + \left \lfloor \frac{x}{13 \times 7} \right \rfloor } - { \left \lfloor \frac{x}{13 \times 11 \times 7} \right \rfloor }$ = ( 3600 ) Note that $7\times 11\times 13 =1001$ Hence from 1 to 1001 there are exactly 720 numbers (as found in Part 1) which are not divisible by 7, 11, 13. Similarly in the next 1001 numbers (from 1002 to 2002) we will have another 720 numbers which are not divisible by 7, 11, 13. To reach 3600 we have to do this exactly 5 times as $720\times 5 = 3600$ . Hence there are $3600$ numbers from 1 to $1001 \times 5 = 5005$. Thus the 3600th number is 5004. ## Chatuspathi: • Paper: RMO 2015 (Chennai) • What is this topic: Combinatorics • What are some of the associated concepts: Principle of Inclusion and Exclusion • Where can learn these topics: Cheenta I.S.I. & C.M.I. course,Cheenta Math Olympiad Program, discuss these topics in the ‘Geometry’ module. • Book Suggestions: Challenges and Thrills of Pre-College Mathematics by Venkatchala, Principles of Combinatorics ### 3 comments on “List of numbers | RMO 2015, Chennai Region Solutions” 1.

 Algebraic Expressions - Class 7 Maths Chapter 4 Question Answer Algebraic Expressions Algebraic Expressions - Sub Topics Algebraic expressions are a super useful part of algebra. It is where we start using letters and symbols to solve problems. It is like a middle ground between basic math with numbers and the tricky stuff in advanced math. In this chapter, we are going to learn the basic ideas of algebraic expressions and how they help us solve all sorts of problems in our everyday lives. • Terms related to Algebraic Concepts • Algebra • Various Types of Algebraic Expression • Solved Questions on Algebraic Expressions • Terms related to Algebraic Concepts Certainly, there is a simpler explanation of those algebraic concepts: Algebra Algebra is a part of mathematics where we use symbols to represent numbers and statements. These symbols, known as literals, can stand for various values and they act like variables. Variable: A variable is like a symbol that can stand for different numbers. We usually use letters like a, b, c, p, q, r, x, y, z, etc. Constant: A constant is a symbol that always represents a specific number. We usually use numbers like 3, 1/7, 3?, 0.5, −2, −1½, etc. Term: When you multiply or divide variables or constants together, you create a term. Examples of terms are 5a, 7abc, 3t, −2xy, −3a/5, a3, −21x2??/11, etc. Coefficient: In a term, the coefficient is like the number that you get when you multiply all the parts together including the sign. Algebraic Expression: When you add or subtract two or more terms, you make an algebraic expression. An algebraic expression 5y2 − 4y + 17 has one constant, two variables and three terms. Like and Unlike Terms: In an algebraic expression, terms with the same letters are like terms. Terms with different letters or different powers of letters are unlike terms. For example, 5xy and −3xy are like terms but 5xy and −3ax are unlike terms. Example: A taxi charges \$27 per km and a fixed charge of \$45. If the taxi is hired for z km, which of the following is an algebraic expression to find the total fare? a) 27z − 45 b) 27z + 45 c) 45z + 27 d) 45z − 27 Explanation: Charges of a taxi per km = \$27 Fixed charge = \$45 Taxi is hired for z km. Charges for z km = \$27 × z = \$27z Algebraic expression to find the total fare = Charges for z km + Fixed charge = \$(27z + 45) Various Types of Algebraic Expression Monomial: A monomial is like an algebraic expression that has just one term. Example of monomials are 4x, −7ab, 3b5, −2p/5, 0.5q,,−11, etc. Binomial: A binomial is an algebraic expression that has two terms. Examples of binomials are (2a + 3b), (5x − 7z), (13x2 − 8xy3), etc. Trinomial: A trinomial is an algebraic expression that has three terms. Examples of trinomials are (3a + 2b + 5c), (4p + q − c/2), (x2 − 2y3 − z3), etc. Quadrinomial: A quadrinomial is an algebraic expression that has four terms. Examples of quadrinomials are 11 − x2 + y2 − 2z, a − 3b + c2 + cd, etc. Polynomial: A polynomial is a type of algebraic expression that includes variables, constants, coefficients, exponents and mathematical operations. The terms within polynomials are the different parts of the expression typically separated by either "+" or "−" signs. All polynomials are a kind of algebraic expression. Example: Simplify the following. 7xy2 − y2 + 7x2y − 5x2 − 3y2 + 4y2x  − 3y2 + x2 a) 7xy2 + 11xy2 − 4x2 − 7y2 b) 7xy2 − 11xy2  + 4x2 − 7y2 c) 11xy2 + 7xy2 − 4x2 − 7y2 d) 11xy2 − 7xy2  + 4x2 − 7y2 Answer: c) 11xy2 + 7xy2 − 4x2 − 7y2 Explanation: 7xy2 − y2 + 7x2y − 5x2 − 3y2 + 4y2x  − 3y2 + x2 = 7xy2 + 4y2x + 7x2y − 5x2 + x2 − 3y2 − y2 − 3y2 = 7xy2 + 4xy2 + 7x2y − 5x2 + x2 − 3y2 − y2 − 3y2 [Arranging the like terms] = (7 + 4)xy2 + 7x2y − (5 − 1)x2 − (3 + 1 + 3)y2 = 11xy2 + 7xy2 − 4x2 − 7y2
# Substitution equations solver Apps can be a great way to help students with their algebra. Let's try the best Substitution equations solver. Our website can help me with math work. ## The Best Substitution equations solver Best of all, Substitution equations solver is free to use, so there's no reason not to give it a try! Linear equations are very common in every grade. They are used to show the relationship between two numbers or values. There are a few different ways to solve linear equations by graphing. You can graph the equation on a coordinate grid, plot points on a coordinate grid, or plot points on an axes grid. When graphing, always follow the order of operations. To graph an equation, start with an ordered pair (x, y). Then put points in between the coordinates that indicate how you want your equation to look. For example, if x = 2 and y = -8, then your graphed equation would look like this: (2,-8). Starting from the left and working from one point to the next will help you visualize how you want your graph to look. A complex number can be represented on a complex plane, which is similar to a coordinate plane. The real part of the complex number is represented on the x-axis, and the imaginary part is represented on the y-axis. One way to solve for a complex number is to use the quadratic equation. This equation can be used to find the roots of any quadratic equation. In order to use this equation, you must first convert the complex number into its rectangular form. This can be done by using the following formula: z = x + yi. Once the complex number is in rectangular form, you can then use the quadratic equation to find its roots. Another way to solve for a complex number is to use De Moivre's theorem. This theorem states that if z = x + yi is a complex number, then its nth roots are given by: z1/n = x1/n(cos (2π/n) + i sin (2π/n)). This theorem can be used to find both the real and imaginary parts of a complex number. There are many other methods that can be used to solve for a complex number, but these two are some of the most commonly used. Trigonometry solver apps are a dime a dozen these days. But which one should you choose? If you're looking for an app with comprehensive features and an easy-to-use interface, then the Trigonometry Solver app by Mobile Math is the perfect choice for you! This app not only allows you to input any trigonometric problem and get step-by-step solutions, but it also comes with a built-in calculator and reference guide. So whether you're The best geometric sequence solver is a computer program that solves geometric sequences, such as those found in long multiplication problems. The program works by taking a list of numbers and linking them together to produce a longer list. This process is repeated until the sequence is solved. The best geometric sequence solver can work in several ways. It can use either brute force or brute force with some help from a human. It can also use sorting or other computer algorithms to determine the next number in the sequence and find the gap between it and the other numbers. Once all the numbers have been determined, they are combined into one long list, which represents the solution to the problem. There are two main types of geometric sequence solvers. One type uses brute force and tries every possible combination until one of them works. The other type uses brute force with some help from a human and tries every combination that meets certain requirements, such as being in order or not having too many digits. Many people prefer using a geometric sequence solver because it can be faster than using other strategies, such as counting or figuring out how many digits there are in each number in the problem. This makes it great for students who don’t have time to think through their problems carefully or for people who have trouble with math in general. However, some people dislike these programs because they can take longer than typical math problems ## Instant support with all types of math It’s really easy to use and it helps by learning while doing homework and you can check if you got your answers right and if you got anything wrong then you can just look at how to calculate all of this and you are able to find your mistakes really fast. Also, can read most of handwritten stuff. Quimoy Davis Love this app. Even though my parents say that I’m not going to learn from the app, their step by step help me understand how to get my answer and I use different example to test if I'm doing it right. I love this app (even the some of it I have to pay for it).
Sequence and Series: Overview, Questions, Preparation Sequence and Series 2021 ( Sequence and Series ) 3.4K Views Rachit Kumar SaxenaManager-Editorial Updated on Jun 28, 2021 08:11 IST What are the Sequence and Series? The sequence is a collection of different objects arranged in such an orderly manner that it can be identified as the first, second, third member and so on. Sequences play an essential role in various parts of our lives. A series can be defined as the sum of all the terms present in a sequence. But there has to be a relationship between the terms and the sequence. Sequence When a sequence has a finite number of terms, it is called a Finite sequence. E.g., the sequence of ancestors in a family is an excellent example of a finite sequence. When a sequence has an infinite number of terms, it is called an infinite sequence. E.g., a Fibonacci series is an excellent example of an infinite sequence. Series A series can be defined as infinite, or finite series based on their sequence. The series is always mentioned in short form, called sigma notation and denoted by the Greek letter ‘Sigma’. E.g., if S1, S2, S3,…., Sn are a given sequence, then the series is defined as S1+ S2+ S3+ …. + Sn. Formulas Related to Sequence and Series The formulas related to arithmetic progression and geometric progression have been mentioned below. a - first term d - the common difference r - the common ratio n - position of terms I - last term For Arithmetic progression Sequence- a, a+d, a+2d, …., a+(n-1)d… Common difference- d= a2-a1 General term- an = a + (n-1)d nth term from the last term- an= I- (n-1)d Sum of first n terms- s = (n/2)(2a + (n-1)d) For geometric progression, Sequence- a, ar, ar2, ar3,…., ar(n-1),… Common difference- r= (arn-1/arn-2) General term- an=ar(n-1) nth term from the last term- an= (1/r)(n-1)) Sum of first n terms- S= a(1-rn)/(1-r); if r Sn = a(rn-1)/(r-1); if r>1 Sequence and Series Weightage in Class XI The chapter ‘Sequence and Series’, discusses the sequence and series along with Arithmetic and geometric progression. This chapter also explains the difference between arithmetic and geometric progression. Illustrated Examples for Sequence and Series 1. The first term of a GP is 1. The sum of the third and the fifth terms is 90. Find the common ratio of GP. Solution. Let common ratio = r. = a3 + a5 =90 = ar2 + ar4 = 90 = r4 + r2 -90 = 0 = r4 + 10r2 -9r2- 90 =0 = r2 - 9 = 0 = r = +3 or -3 2. If the sum of three numbers in AP is 24, and the product is 440, what are the numbers? Solution. Let the three numbers be a-d, a, and a+d Sum= (a-d)+ a + (a+1) = 24 = 3a = 24 = a = 8 Product= (a-d) * a * (a+d)= 440 = d= 3 When d= +3, the numbers are 5, 8, and 11. when d= =3, the numbers are 11, 8, and 5. 3. Find the sum of all numbers between 200 and 400, which are divisible by 7. Solution. First terms, a= 203, Last term, an= 399, Difference= 7 an = a + (n-1)d = 399= 203 + (n-1)*7 = n = 29 So, S29 = (29/2)* (203 + 399) S29 = 8729 FAQs on Sequence and Series Q: What is a sequence? A: A sequence is a collection of different objects arranged in such an orderly manner that it can be identified as the first, second, third member and so on. Q: What is a series? A: A series can be defined as the sum of all the terms present in a sequence. But there has to be a relationship between the terms and the sequence. Q: What are the two kinds of progressions?

Hough Line transform is a technique used to detect straight lines in an image. This algorithm can detect all imperfect instances of a line in a given image ie, this algorithm can detect lines even if they are not perfectly straight. The detection of line is carried out by a voting process.  Before examining the algorithm in detail we need to demystify the mathematics behind it. ### The Mathematics There are several form of equations in which a line can be represented. The most common and familiar one should be the “slope-intercept” form. where is the slope is the y-intercept. In this equation the slope  and the y-intercept  are known for a given line. and  are variables. So by varying the value of  (or ) you can find the corresponding value of (or ) From the above equation we can derive another form of equation called the “Double Intercept” form. …………….. where is the x-intercept. is the y-intercept. The double intercept form will be used to derive a new form of equation called the “Normal Form” which is used in the Hough Line Transform. The reason for using normal form is that the “slope-intercept” from fails in case of vertical lines and the Double intercept form fails because of the large range of  and . Derivation: Consider a line   which intersects the y-axis at point and x-axis at point . A line segment  having one end point on the origin intersects the line   at right angles at point . makes an angle  with the a-axis. The length of  is .From the figure,  and Consider . …………….. Now consider . . because . Therefore …………….. Substituting the values of  in  with  we get …………….. ### Straight Line Detection: Lets see how the above equation can be used to find straight lines. Given the values of  and , we can vary the value of  and find the corresponding value of . Plotting  will give us a straight line. For example, for  degrees and units the graph would look like this. If we keep the value  and  constant and vary the value of   we can find the corresponding values of  . For each   pair we can plot a line in x-y coordinate and all these lines will pass through  . For example, let  be. Let . After substituting these values in  the   we get . When we plot the lines formed by the   pairs, they will all pass through Now consider three points . Let . The corresponding values of   are as follows. 15 3.03 15 5.86 15 7.27 30 4.86 30 6.33 30 7.06 45 6.36 45 6.36 45 6.36 If a line passes through a given point , then the corresponding gets a vote from that point. The line with that gets maximum number of votes passes through maximum number of points. In the above example, got three votes, that means it passes through all three point. If gets number of votes then it passes through number of points. For simplicity we considered only 3 angles and 3 points. The number of lines that can pass through a point is infinite. If we plot all the possible values of and for the point the graph would look like this. Pay Attention: We are not plotting the lines in this graph. We are directly plotting the values of and . is on x-axis and is given in radian not degrees. is on y-axis. This graph represents the values of lines that pass through the point Similarly we can plot graph for the points , and . We observe that all the 3 curves intersect at a point. The point of intersection is . <p >But for practical application we can consider a small subset of angles; let’s say . Here we are considering only 180 values for and we get 180 values for . So effectively we are finding 180 lines that pass through a point. ### Algorithm Preprocessing: Canny edge detector is applied to extract the edges. Step 1: Calculate the maximum and minimum value of and . For practical implementation and are integral values. Select appropriate value for threshold . Step 2: Initialize a 2-D array A of size x and fill it with zeros. Step 3: For each white pixel find value of corresponding to each value of . Increment . Step 5: Search for values of which is above the threshold; Step 4: Draw the lines. ### Code I have used OpenCV library for this program.

In this section, we explore the techniques needed to solve more complicated trig equations. Building from what we already know makes this a much easier task. Consider the function $$f(x)=2x^{2} +x$$. If you were asked to solve $$f(x)=0$$, it requires simple algebra: $2x^{2} +x=0\nonumber$Factor $x(2x+1)=0\nonumber$Giving solutions $x = 0\text{ or }x = -\dfrac{1}{2}\nonumber$ Similarly, for $$g(t)=\sin (t)$$, if we asked you to solve $$g(t)=0$$, you can solve this using unit circle values: $\sin (t)=0\text{ for }t=0, \pi , 2\pi\text{ and so on.}\nonumber$ Using these same concepts, we consider the composition of these two functions: $f(g(t))=2(\sin (t))^{2} +(\sin (t))=2\sin ^{2} (t)+\sin (t)\nonumber$ This creates an equation that is a polynomial trig function. With these types of functions, we use algebraic techniques like factoring and the quadratic formula, along with trigonometric identities and techniques, to solve equations. As a reminder, here are some of the essential trigonometric identities that we have learned so far: DEFINITIONS: IDENTITIES Pythagorean Identities $\cos ^{2} (t)+\sin ^{2} (t)=1\quad 1+\cot ^{2} (t)=\csc ^{2} (t)\quad 1+\tan ^{2} (t)=\sec ^{2} (t)$ Negative Angle Identities $\sin (-t)=-\sin (t)\quad \cos (-t)=\cos (t)\quad \tan (-t)=-\tan (t)$ $\csc (-t)=-\csc (t)\quad \sec (-t)=\sec (t)\quad \cot (-t)=-\cot (t)$ Reciprocal Identities $\sec (t)=\dfrac{1}{\cos (t)}\quad \csc (t)=\dfrac{1}{\sin (t)}\quad \tan (t)=\dfrac{\sin (t)}{\cos (t)}\quad \cot (t)=\dfrac{1}{\tan (t)}$ EXAMPLE  $$\PageIndex{1}$$ Solve $$2\sin ^{2} (t)+\sin (t)=0$$ for all solutions with $$0\le t<2\pi$$. Solution This equation kind of looks like a quadratic equation, but with sin(t) in place of an algebraic variable (we often call such an equation “quadratic in sine”). As with all quadratic equations, we can use factoring techniques or the quadratic formula. This expression factors nicely, so we proceed by factoring out the common factor of sin($$t$$): $\sin (t)\left(2\sin (t)+1\right)=0\nonumber$ Using the zero product theorem, we know that the product on the left will equal zero if either factor is zero, allowing us to break this equation into two cases: $\sin (t)=0\text{ or }2\sin (t)+1=0\nonumber$ We can solve each of these equations independently, using our knowledge of special angles. $\sin (t)=0\nonumber$ $2\sin (t)+1=0\nonumber$ $t = 0\text{ or }t = \pi\nonumber$ $\sin (t)=-\dfrac{1}{2}\nonumber$ $t=\dfrac{7\pi }{6}\text{ or }t=\dfrac{11\pi }{6}\nonumber$ Together, this gives us four solutions to the equation on $$0\le t<2\pi$$: $t=0,\pi ,\dfrac{7\pi }{6} ,\dfrac{11\pi }{6}\nonumber$ We could check these answers are reasonable by graphing the function and comparing the zeros. EXAMPLE  $$\PageIndex{2}$$ Solve $$3\sec ^{2} (t)-5\sec (t)-2=0$$ for all solutions with $$0\le t<2\pi$$. Solution Since the left side of this equation is quadratic in secant, we can try to factor it, and hope it factors nicely. If it is easier to for you to consider factoring without the trig function present, consider using a substitution $$u=\sec (t)$$, resulting in $$3u^{2} -5u-2=0$$, and then try to factor: $3u^{2} -5u-2=(3u+1)(u-2)\nonumber$ Undoing the substitution, $(3\sec (t)+1)(\sec (t)-2)=0\nonumber$ Since we have a product equal to zero, we break it into the two cases and solve each separately. $3\sec (t)+1=0\nonumber$Isolate the secant $\sec (t)=-\dfrac{1}{3}\nonumber$Rewrite as a cosine $\dfrac{1}{\cos (t)} =-\dfrac{1}{3}\nonumber$Invert both sides $\cos (t)=-3\nonumber$ Since the cosine has a range of [-1, 1], the cosine will never take on an output of -3. There are no solutions to this case. Continuing with the second case, $\sec (t)-2=0\nonumber$Isolate the secant $\sec (t)=2\nonumber$Rewrite as a cosine $\dfrac{1}{\cos (t)} =2\nonumber$Invert both sides $\cos (t)=\dfrac{1}{2}\nonumber$This gives two solutions $t=\dfrac{\pi }{3}\text{ or }t=\dfrac{5\pi }{3}\nonumber$ These are the only two solutions on the interval. By utilizing technology to graph $$f(t)=3\sec ^{2} (t)-5\sec (t)-2$$, a look at a graph confirms there are only two zeros for this function on the interval [0, 2 $$\pi$$), which assures us that we didn’t miss anything. Exercise $$\PageIndex{1}$$ Solve $$2\sin ^{2} (t)+3\sin (t)+1=0$$ for all solutions with $$0\le t<2\pi$$. Factor as $\left(2\sin (t)+1\right)\left(\sin (t)+1\right)=0\nonumber$ $2\sin (t)+1=0\text{ at }t=\dfrac{7\pi }{6} ,\dfrac{11\pi }{6}\nonumber$ $\sin (t)+1=0\text{ at }t=\dfrac{3\pi }{2}\nonumber$ $t=\dfrac{7\pi }{6} ,\dfrac{3\pi }{2} ,\dfrac{11\pi }{6}\nonumber$ When solving some trigonometric equations, it becomes necessary to first rewrite the equation using trigonometric identities. One of the most common is the Pythagorean Identity, $$\sin ^{2} (\theta )+\cos ^{2} (\theta )=1$$ which allows you to rewrite $$\sin ^{2} (\theta )$$ in terms of $$\cos ^{2} (\theta )$$ or vice versa, IDENTITIES Alternate Forms of the Pythagorean Identity $\begin{array}{l} {\sin ^{2} (\theta )=1-\cos ^{2} (\theta )} \\ {\cos ^{2} (\theta )=1-\sin ^{2} (\theta )} \end{array}$ These identities become very useful whenever an equation involves a combination of sine and cosine functions. EXAMPLE  $$\PageIndex{3}$$ Solve $$2\sin ^{2} (t)-\cos (t)=1$$ for all solutions with $$0\le t<2\pi$$. Solution Since this equation has a mix of sine and cosine functions, it becomes more complicated to solve. It is usually easier to work with an equation involving only one trig function. This is where we can use the Pythagorean Identity. $2\sin ^{2} (t)-\cos (t)=1\nonumber$Using $$\sin ^{2} (\theta )=1-\cos ^{2} (\theta )$$ $2\left(1-\cos ^{2} (t)\right)-\cos (t)=1\nonumber$Distributing the 2 $2-2\cos ^{2} (t)-\cos (t)=1\nonumber$ Since this is now quadratic in cosine, we rearrange the equation so one side is zero and factor. $-2\cos ^{2} (t)-\cos (t)+1=0\nonumber$Multiply by -1 to simplify the factoring $2\cos ^{2} (t)+\cos (t)-1=0\nonumber$Factor $\left(2\cos (t)-1\right)\left(\cos (t)+1\right)=0\nonumber$ This product will be zero if either factor is zero, so we can break this into two separate cases and solve each independently. $2\cos (t)-1=0\text{ or }\cos (t)+1=0\nonumber$ $\cos (t)=\dfrac{1}{2}\text{ or }\cos (t)=-1\nonumber$ $t=\dfrac{\pi }{3}\text{ or }t=\dfrac{5\pi }{3}\text{ or }t=\pi\nonumber$ Exercise  $$\PageIndex{3}$$ Solve $$2\sin ^{2} (t)=3\cos (t)$$ for all solutions with $$0\le t<2\pi$$. $2\left(1-\cos ^{2} (t)\right)=3\cos (t)\nonumber$ $2\cos ^{2} (t)+3\cos (t)-2=0\nonumber$ $\left(2\cos (t)-1\right)\left(\cos (t)+2\right)=0\nonumber$ $$\cos (t)+2=0$$ has no solutions $$2\cos (t)-1=0$$ at $$t=\dfrac{\pi }{3} ,\dfrac{5\pi }{3}$$ In addition to the Pythagorean Identity, it is often necessary to rewrite the tangent, secant, cosecant, and cotangent as part of solving an equation. EXAMPLE  $$\PageIndex{4}$$ Solve $$\tan (x)=3\sin (x)$$ for all solutions with $$0\le x<2\pi$$. Solution With a combination of tangent and sine, we might try rewriting tangent $\tan (x)=3\sin (x)\nonumber$ $\dfrac{\sin (x)}{\cos (x)} =3\sin (x)\nonumber$Multiplying both sides by cosine $\sin (x)=3\sin (x)\cos (x) \nonumber$ At this point, you may be tempted to divide both sides of the equation by sin($$x$$). Resist the urge. When we divide both sides of an equation by a quantity, we are assuming the quantity is never zero. In this case, when sin($$x$$) = 0 the equation is satisfied, so we’d lose those solutions if we divided by the sine. To avoid this problem, we can rearrange the equation so that one side is zero (You technically can divide by sin(x), as long as you separately consider the case where sin(x) = 0. Since it is easy to forget this step, the factoring approach used in the example is recommended.). $\sin (x)-3\sin (x)\cos (x)=0\nonumber$Factoring out sin($$x$$) from both parts $\sin (x)\left(1-3\cos (x)\right)=0 \nonumber$ From here, we can see we get solutions when $$\sin (x)=0$$ or $$1-3\cos (x)=0$$. Using our knowledge of the special angles of the unit circle, $\sin (x)=0\text{ when }x = 0\text{ or }x = \pi\nonumber$ For the second equation, we will need the inverse cosine. $1-3\cos (x)=0\nonumber$ $\cos (x)=\dfrac{1}{3}\nonumber$Using our calculator or technology $x=\cos ^{-1} \left(\dfrac{1}{3} \right)\approx 1.231\nonumber$Using symmetry to find a second solution $x=2\pi -1.231=5.052 \nonumber$ We have four solutions on $$0 \le x<2\pi$$: $x = 0, 1.231, \quad\pi , 5.052\nonumber$ EXAMPLE  $$\PageIndex{3}$$ Solve $$\sec (\theta )=2\cos (\theta )$$ to find the first four positive solutions. $\dfrac{1}{\cos (\theta )} =2\cos (\theta )\nonumber$ $\dfrac{1}{2} =\cos ^{2} (\theta )\nonumber$ $\cos (\theta )=\pm \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{2} } =\pm \dfrac{\sqrt{2} }{2}\nonumber$ $\theta =\dfrac{\pi }{4} ,\dfrac{3\pi }{4} ,\dfrac{5\pi }{4} ,\dfrac{7\pi }{4}\nonumber$ EXAMPLE $$\PageIndex{5}$$ Solve $$\dfrac{4}{\sec ^{2} (\theta )} +3\cos \left(\theta \right)=2\cot \left(\theta \right)\tan \left(\theta \right)$$ for all solutions with $$0\le \theta <2\pi$$. Solution $\dfrac{4}{\sec ^{2} (\theta )} +3\cos \left(\theta \right)=2\cot \left(\theta \right)\tan \left(\theta \right)\nonumber$ Using the reciprocal identities $4\cos ^{2} (\theta )+3\cos (\theta )=2\dfrac{1}{\tan (\theta )} \tan (\theta )\nonumber$ Simplifying $4\cos ^{2} \left(\theta \right)+3\cos \left(\theta \right)=2\nonumber$ Subtracting 2 from each side $4\cos ^{2} \left(\theta \right)+3\cos \left(\theta \right)-2=0\nonumber$ This does not appear to factor nicely so we use the quadratic formula, remembering that we are solving for cos( $$\theta$$). $\cos (\theta )=\dfrac{-3\pm \sqrt{3^{2} -4(4)(-2)} }{2(4)} =\dfrac{-3\pm \sqrt{41} }{8}\nonumber$ Using the negative square root first, $\cos (\theta )=\dfrac{-3-\sqrt{41} }{8} =-1.175\nonumber$ This has no solutions, since the cosine can’t be less than -1. Using the positive square root, $\cos (\theta )=\dfrac{-3+\sqrt{41} }{8} =0.425\nonumber$ $\theta =\cos ^{-1} \left(0.425\right)=1.131\nonumber$ By symmetry, a second solution can be found $\theta =2\pi -1.131=5.152\nonumber$ ## Important Topics of This Section • Review of Trig Identities • Solving Trig Equations • By Factoring • Using the Quadratic Formula • Utilizing Trig Identities to simplify

Example: If 25 data values are recorded, the Median would be the (25+1)/2 = 13 th ordered value. Median u Example 1 data: 2 4 6 Median (M) = 4 u Example 2 data: 2 4 6 8 Median = 5 (ave. of 4 and 6) u Example 3 data: 6 2 4 Median  2 (order the values: 2 4 6, so Median = 4) Measure of center: the median The median is the midpoint of a distribution—the number such that half of the observations are smaller and half are larger. 1. Sort observations from smallest to largest. n = number of observations ______________________________ n = 24  n/2 = 12 Median = (3.3+3.4) /2 = 3.35 3. If n is even, the median is the mean of the two center observations  n = 25 (n+1)/2 = 26/2 = 13 Median = 3.4 2. If n is odd, the median is observation (n+1)/2 down the list Comparing the Mean & Median u The mean and median of data from a symmetric distribution should be close together. The actual (true) mean and median of a symmetric distribution are exactly the same. u In a skewed distribution, the mean is farther out in the long tail than is the median [the mean is ‘pulled’ in the direction of the possible outlier(s)]. Disease X: Mean and median are the same. Mean and median of a symmetric distribution Multiple myeloma: and a right-skewed distribution The mean is pulled toward the skew. Impact of skewed data The median, on the other hand, is only slightly pulled to the right by the outliers (from 3.4 to 3.6). The mean is pulled to the right a lot by the outliers (from 3.4 to 4.2). Percent of people dying Mean and median of a distribution with outliers Without the outliers With the outliers Question A recent newspaper article in California said that the median price of single-family homes sold in the past year in the local area was \$136,000 and the mean price was \$149,160. Which do you think is more useful to someone considering the purchase of a home, the median or the mean? Case Study Airline fares appeared in the New York Times on November 5, 1995 “...about 60% of airline passengers ‘pay less than the average fare’ for their specific flight.” u How can this be? 13% of passengers pay more than 1.5 times the average fare for their flight Spread, or Variability u If all values are the same, then they all equal the mean. There is no variability. u Variability exists when some values are different from (above or below) the mean. u We will discuss the following measures of spread: range, quartiles, variance, and standard deviation Range u One way to measure spread is to give the smallest (minimum) and largest (maximum) values in the data set; Range = max  min u The range is strongly affected by outliers Quartiles u Three numbers which divide the ordered data into four equal sized groups. u Q 1 has 25% of the data below it. u Q 2 has 50% of the data below it. (Median) u Q 3 has 75% of the data below it. Quartiles Uniform Distribution Q1Q1 Q2Q2 Q3Q3 Obtaining the Quartiles u Order the data. u For Q 2, just find the median. u For Q 1, look at the lower half of the data values, those to the left of the median location; find the median of this lower half. u For Q 3, look at the upper half of the data values, those to the right of the median location; find the median of this upper half. M = median = 3.4 Q 1 = first quartile = 2.2 Q 3 = third quartile = 4.35 Measure of spread : quartiles The first quartile, Q 1, is the value in the sample that has 25% of the data at or below it. The third quartile, Q 3, is the value in the sample that has 75% of the data at or below it. Boxplot u Central box spans Q 1 and Q 3. u A line in the box marks the median M. u Lines extend from the box out to the minimum and maximum. M = median = 3.4 Q 3 = third quartile = 4.35 Q 1 = first quartile = 2.2 Largest = max = 6.1 Smallest = min = 0.6 “Five-number summary” Center and spread in boxplots Example from Text: Boxplots Variance and Standard Deviation u Recall that variability exists when some values are different from (above or below) the mean. u Each data value has an associated deviation from the mean: Deviations u what is a typical deviation from the mean? (standard deviation) u small values of this typical deviation indicate small variability in the data u large values of this typical deviation indicate large variability in the data Variance u Find the mean u Find the deviation of each value from the mean u Square the deviations u Sum the squared deviations u Divide the sum by n-1 (gives typical squared deviation from mean) Variance Formula Standard Deviation Formula typical deviation from the mean [ standard deviation = square root of the variance ] Variance and Standard Deviation Example from Text Metabolic rates of 7 men (cal./24hr.) : 1792 1666 1362 1614 1460 1867 1439 Variance and Standard Deviation Example from Text ObservationsDeviationsSquared deviations 1792 1792  1600 = 192 (192) 2 = 36,864 1666 1666  1600 = 66 (66) 2 = 4,356 1362 1362  1600 = -238 (-238) 2 = 56,644 1614 1614  1600 = 14 (14) 2 = 196 1460 1460  1600 = -140 (-140) 2 = 19,600 1867 1867  1600 = 267 (267) 2 = 71,289 1439 1439  1600 = -161 (-161) 2 = 25,921 sum = 0sum = 214,870 Variance and Standard Deviation Example from Text Notes on Standard Deviation u s measures spread about the mean, and should be used only if the mean is our measure of center. u In most cases s>0. s=0 where ________________. Cannot be less than 0. u As the spread of the data increases, s increases. u s has the same units as the original observations. u s is sensitive to skewness and outliers like the mean. u Sum of all deviations must be 0. Choosing a Summary u Outliers affect the values of the mean and standard deviation. u The five-number summary should be used to describe center and spread for skewed distributions, or when outliers are present. u Use the mean and standard deviation for reasonably symmetric distributions that are free of outliers.

Arbitrary distribution using biased coin Problem. Let’s assume that you have a biased coin, but you don’t know the probabilities of its sides. Using the coin, how would you choose one of the numbers 1, 2 or 3 with equal probability? Stop reading here and try solving the problem yourself before moving on. Solution. First of all, I have to note that this problem have a trivial solution that works only for this particular question, not in a general case. One such solution was proposed by a reader in the comments section. In this post, we present a solution that will work for arbitrary distributions, no matter how asymmetric they are. The problem becomes easier if we split it into two parts. Firstly we will learn how to emulate a fair coin using a biased one. After this we describe a procedure which allows us to get numbers from an arbitrary probabilistic distribution. Let’s denote the probability of tails as $$p$$. Then if we toss the coin twice, we can get one of the four outcomes: 1. Tails both times, with probability $$p^2$$, 2. Heads both times, with probability $$(1-p)^2$$, 3. Tails first time, heads second time, probability $$p(1-p)$$. 4. Heads first time, tails second time, probability $$p(1-p)$$. As you see, outcomes 3 and 4 have equal chances to appear. Thus, in order to emulate an experiment with probability 50/50 (fair coin), we can toss the coin twice. If both tosses give the same outcome, then discard it and toss again. When we get tails in one toss and heads in the other, we choose the outcome which comes first. Example. Consider a sequence of tosses T, T, H, H, T, H, where I denoted tails as T and heads as H. This sequence describes an experiment in which we toss the coin twice and both times we get tails. We discard this result and toss twice again. This time we get two heads. Now, we toss twice one more time. First, we get tails and then heads. We write “tails” as our outcome. Since now we can assume that we have a fair coin. We will be repeating tosses sequentially and interpreting them as digits in a binary representation of a number $$s$$ in interval $$[0, 1]$$: $$s=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{+\infty} \frac{t_i}{2^i}$$ Here $$t_i$$ denotes the outcome of i-th toss and can be either 0 or 1. In order to get one of the three values at random, we split $$[0,1]$$ into three subintervals $$[0, 1/3), [1/3, 2/3], (2/3, 1]$$. (Since particular points like 1/3 has zero probability, we don’t care into which interval we include them). The outcome of the experiment is the number of the subinterval in which $$s$$ lies. Since we assume that each digit of $$s$$ is uniform, $$s$$ itself is uniform in $$[0,1]$$. In fact we don’t need the exact value of $$s$$. The only interesting bit is the subinterval in which $$s$$ lies, so we don’t have to make an infinite number of tosses. Let’s say that the first toss gave us value 1. We know that $$s=0.1\ldots$$ (in binary) and it lies somewhere in $$[1/3, 2/3]$$. If the next toss gives us 0, then $$s=0.10\ldots$$ and $$s\in[1/3, 0.59]$$. If the next toss gives us 0 again, then $$s=0.100\ldots$$ and we know that $$s\in[1/3, 0.46)$$ which is a subinterval of $$[1/3, 2/3]$$. The outcome is the second value. This scheme can be generalized in an obvious way. If we want to get an arbitrary distribution we just have to split $$[0,1]$$ into a given number of subintervals of lengths that match the probabilities of the values. 2 thoughts on “Arbitrary distribution using biased coin” 1. Sbezhik says: If we want to do this procedure in reality it is more convenient not to split the problem into parts and use the following strategy: THH or HTT — 1 HTH ot THT — 2 HHT or TTH –3 TTT or HHH — discard it. So we use only 3 tosses instead of 4+ in your strategy and have no need to discard p^2+(1-p)^2>50% of tosses.
CBSE Class 9 Maths Revision Notes Chapter 14 Class 9 Mathematics Revision Notes for Statistics of Chapter 14 Mathematics Revision Notes for Class 9 Chapter 14 Statistics of Extramarks are curated by subject matter experts according to the NCERT curriculum. Students can refer to these notes for a conceptual understanding of the topics explained in Class 9 Mathematics Chapter 14. Class 9 Mathematics Revision Notes for Statistics of Chapter 14 Statistics 1. Introduction • The branch of mathematics concerned with the collection, classification, tabulation, representation, reasoning, testing of data and drawing inferences from it is referred to as statistics. • Data is often expressed in the form of graphs, tables, etc. Statistical methods are used, like estimation or prediction. • Statistics are used to organise and process numerical data in a systematic manner. • The interrelation of statistics with biology, psychology, economics, trade etc. can be used to interpret and analyse the data from different subjects. • Measures of central tendencies are expressions that give some information about  numerous numerical data. • An average represents the middle value out of a group of values, which has extremities on both sides. 1. Numerical Data and Its Representation The scores of 64 students in a class test out of 100 are as follows : Table 1 58 38 52 47 16 50 61 37 44 55 38 49 44 52 67 51 33 48 23 51 56 61 46 41 65 43 71 29 50 56 68 25 55 49 44 73 23 63 41 42 66 59 52 28 50 56 60 38 40 73 45 30 47 40 This data is presented in an organised manner to present the scores of students in the class. This is the tabular form of presenting data; many other methods can be used. 1. Arranged Data Arranged Numerical Data The data from Table 1 is arranged in ascending order. Table 2 14 16 23 23 25 28 29 30 33 37 37 38 38 38 40 40 40 40 40 41 41 42 43 44 44 44 45 46 46 47 47 48 49 49 50 50 50 51 51 52 52 52 55 55 56 56 56 58 58 59 60 61 61 62 63 65 66 67 68 68 71 72 73 73 Information gathered from the table: The minimum marks are 14 and the maximum marks are 73. There is a repetition of scores i.e 40 marks, occurring 5 times, making it the maximum repetition. Drawbacks: • This method is very difficult to perform. • Large amounts of data cannot be arranged and put in an ascending order. • No crucial information will be gained from this statistical method. 1. Ungrouped Frequency Distribution Table The data from table 1 is used to create an ungrouped frequency distribution table. Numbers are written from smallest to largest and repeated numbers are marked using tally marks. Tally marks correspond to the frequency of the number occurring in the data. Table 3 Tally Marks Frequency Marks 14 I 1 15 16 I 1 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 II 2 24 25 I 1 26 27 28 I 1 Tally Marks Frequency Marks 29 I 1 30 I 1 31 32 33 I 1 34 35 36 37 II 2 38 III 3 39 IIII 5 40 IIII 5 41 II 2 42 I 1 43 I 1 Tally Marks Frequency Marks 44 III 3 45 I 1 46 II 2 47 II 2 48 I 1 49 II 2 50 III 3 51 II 2 52 III 3 53 54 55 II 2 56 III 3 57 58 I 1 Tally Marks Frequency Marks 59 I 1 60 I 1 61 II 2 62 I 1 63 I 1 64 65 I 1 66 I 1 67 I 1 68 II 2 69 70 71 I 1 72 II 2 73 II 2 Conclusions can be drawn more easily from such a table, as mere observation can produce statistical expression. It is obvious from the table that there are a lot of students who received grades between 44 and 58. Drawback • A grouped frequency table can be used for a smaller span to represent data. 1. Grouped Frequency Distribution Table Distribution of data into organised groups and classes using tally marks is done in a grouped frequency distribution table. Classes taken are from 11 to 20, 21 – 30…. 71 – 80. Table 4 Class Tally Marks Frequency 11-20 II 2 21-30 IIII I 6 31-40 IIII IIII I 11 41-50 IIII IIII IIII III 18 51-60 IIII IIII IIII 14 61-70 IIII IIII 9 71-80 IIII 4 Total 64 1. Some Terms Used in Statistics 2. Raw Numerical Data The primary information that has been collected is called raw numerical data. 1. Range of the Data The difference between the largest and smallest value in the data is called its range. Example: The range of data in table 2 is 73-14 = 59. 1. Class Limit The smallest and largest possible data values for each class are represented by class limits. The smallest possible value in a class is its lower limit and the largest possible value in a class is its upper limit. 1. Class Interval The range of the class is its class interval. 1. Frequency of the Class The frequency of a class interval is the number of observations that occur in the interval. Thus, it can be represented as tally marks or as a count. 1. Cumulative Frequency Table The cumulative frequency is the frequency of observations less than a certain class interval’s upper limit. Table 5 Class Frequency Cumulative Frequency (Less than the upper class limit) 11-20 2 2 21-30 6 2+6=8 31-40 11 2+6+11=19 41-50 18 2+6+11+18=37 51-60 14 2+6+11+18+14=51 61-70 9 2+6+11+18+14+9=60 71-80 4 2+6+11+18+14+9+4=64 Total= 64 In this table, the column of cumulative frequency shows the number of scores less than the upper class limit of the particular class. Thus, such a table is called ‘a cumulative frequency less than’ table. Along similar lines, the cumulative frequency more than the lower limit of a class is equal to the sum of the frequency of that particular class and the frequencies of all the classes succeeding to it. Table 6 given below shows the cumulative frequency of this type. Table 6 Class Frequency Cumulative Frequency (More than the lower class limit) 11-20 2 62+2=64 21-30 6 56+6=62 31-40 11 45+11=56 41-50 18 27+18=45 51-60 14 13+14=27 61-70 9 4+9=13 71-80 4 4 Total= 64 The cumulative frequency column in this table displays the number of scores that are higher than the respective class’s lower limit. Consequently, a table of this type is known as ‘a cumulative frequency more than’ table. To create a table like this, make a table with the classes and matching frequencies. From the table’s bottom to its top, jot down the cumulative frequencies. The cumulative frequency for the last class, which is 71 to 80, is 4, making that class’s frequency 4. The frequency of the class before is 9, and it ranges from 61 to 70. Therefore, 4+9=13 represents the class 71 to 80 cumulative frequency. 1. Representation of Statistical Data The two forms of numerical data are : 1. Diagrammatic representation 2. Graphical representation 3. Diagrammatic Representation Diagrammatic representation can be done by using : 1. Pie Diagrams 2. Bar Diagrams 1. Graphical representation Data can be represented in the form of : 1. Histogram 2. Frequency Polygon 3. Ogive Curve 4. Graphical Representation of Statistical Data 5. Histogram • A bar diagram demonstrating a continuous frequency distribution, in graphical form, is called a histogram. • This method involves construction from frequency data, indicating a vertical demonstration of frequencies and classes on the horizontal scale. • Individual intervals are represented by bars. • Construction of a histogram is done by using grouped frequency distribution tables. Class limits are shown on the x-axis, frequencies on the y-axis and rectangles are joined to the class limit and heights are proportional to the frequencies. 1. Frequency Polygon • Data in a frequency polygon is represented by plotting the class mark on the horizontal axis and the frequency of the class on the vertical axis. • The two points are then connected and completed by class marks, one-class width on either end and a frequency of zero on both ends. • The construction of histograms is crucial for creating a frequency polygon, by joining the middle points of the upper horizontal sides of the rectangles in the histogram. • Assumptions are taken such that the frequency of each of the classes before the first class and the last class is taken, and is considered zero. Frequency polygons can be made without using histograms. 1. Recap Statistical data can be represented in the following ways : 1. Histogram On the x-axis, class intervals are plotted and cumulative frequencies are on the y-axis. The corresponding rectangles are drawn representing the data. 1. Frequency polygon After drawing the histogram, connect the midpoints of the rectangles of the histogram with straight line segments. This gives us the frequency polygon. 1. Arithmetic Mean (AM) 2. Arithmetic Mean for Ungrouped Data From the given raw data, the value obtained by summing up all the values of a given variable divided by the total number of values is called Arithmetic Mean. Let ‘n’ be the total number of values and x1, x2, … xn be the recorded values of the variable then the arithmetic mean is given as follows: Arithmetic Mean (AM) = x = x1+x2+x3+…+xnn Or x = xin The symbol denotes that the values of the given variable are summed over all the given values of x. 1. Direct Method for Arithmetic Mean of Ungrouped Data Arithmetic Mean (AM) = x = fixin Example: Find the AM of the following data: Marks Frequency (fi) fixi 7 3 21 19 4 76 31 5 155 40 7 280 49 9 441 62 7 434 73 6 438 83 5 415 91 4 364 n=50 i=1i=50fix1= 2624 Here, AM = x = fixin = 262450 = 52.48 1. Direct Method for Arithmetic Mean of Grouped Data Find the arithmetic mean for the given frequency distribution: Marks Frequency (fi) Mid Point (xi) fixi 5-15 3 10 30 15-25 4 20 80 25-35 5 30 150 35-45 7 40 280 45-55 9 50 450 55-65 7 60 420 65-75 6 70 420 75-85 5 80 400 85-95 4 90 360 n=xi=50 fixi = 2590 Arithmetic Mean=x=fixin = 259050=51.80 1. For Calculating the Mean Assumed Mean or Short-Cut Method 2. Short-Cut Method for Ungrouped Data Here, a value that is roughly in the middle is taken and considered as Assumed Mean (A). On having two middle values, the one with a higher frequency is taken. Then the Arithmetic Mean is given as Arithmetic Mean = x = A + fididi where A is the assumed mean and d is the deviation of x from the assumed mean A. 1. Shortcut Method for Grouped Data Here too, similar to the method for ungrouped data, the assumed mean is taken from the given data from the mid values of the table and then the arithmetic mean is obtained as follows: Arithmetic Mean (AM) = x = A + fidifi where A is the assumed mean and d is the deviation of x from the assumed mean A. 1. Step-Deviation Method In this method, Arithmetic Mean (AM) = x = A + fiuifi h where A is the assumed mean, h is the class size(upper limit – lower limit), u is x – Ah 1. Median and Mode Median On arranging the given statistical data in ascending or descending order of their numerical values, the number in the middle is termed the median. Let n be the number of values, Then Median  = (n2 + 1)th term if n is odd And Median = (n2)th term + (n2 + 1)th term 2 if n is even Mode The value which appears the maximum number of times among the given statistical data has been termed as ‘mode’. Thus, it is the value with the highest frequency.

Start Solution Since there is no “Quotient Rule” for integrals we’ll need to break up the integrand and simplify a little prior to integration. $\int{{\frac{{{z^8} - 6{z^5} + 4{z^3} - 2}}{{{z^4}}}\,dz}} = \int{{\frac{{{z^8}}}{{{z^4}}} - \frac{{6{z^5}}}{{{z^4}}} + \frac{{4{z^3}}}{{{z^4}}} - \frac{2}{{{z^4}}}\,dz}} = \int{{{z^4} - 6z + \frac{4}{z} - 2{z^{ - 4}}\,dz}}$ Show Step 2 At this point there really isn’t too much to do other than to evaluate the integral. $\int{{\frac{{{z^8} - 6{z^5} + 4{z^3} - 2}}{{{z^4}}}\,dz}} = \int{{{z^4} - 6z + \frac{4}{z} - 2{z^{ - 4}}\,dz}} = \require{bbox} \bbox[2pt,border:1px solid black]{{\frac{1}{5}{z^5} - 3{z^2} + 4\ln \left| z \right| + \frac{2}{3}{z^{ - 3}} + c}}$ Don’t forget to add on the “+c” since we know that we are asking what function did we differentiate to get the integrand and the derivative of a constant is zero and so we do need to add that onto the answer.
1. ## Power series question We just started power series in class and I'm somewhat confused about them. I'm stuck on this particular problem. It says to make a power series for f(x) = x/(2x^2+1). What I did was to base it on geometric series so I convered the equation to look like 1/(1+x) so now it looks like x/[1-(-2x^2)]. What I got for the power series was x multiplied by the sum of (-2x^2)^n from n=0 to infinity. Is this right? 2. You're close, except you forgot to add a coefficient, rational functions have this relation: $\displaystyle \frac{x}{2x^2 + 1} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_nx^n$ It's that simple, now you have to find the coefficients: Multiply the denominator through: $\displaystyle x = (2x^2 + 1)\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_nx^n$ Now we multiply the sum through: $\displaystyle x = 2\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_nx^{n+2} + \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_nx^n$ $\displaystyle x = 2\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_{n-2}x^n + \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_nx^n$ Now we combine like terms: $\displaystyle x = a_0 + a_1x + \sum_{n=2}^{\infty}(2a_{n-2} + a_n)x^n$ Since there are no coefficients on the left side, then: $\displaystyle a_0 = 0$ Since the coefficient of the x term on the left side is 1, then the coefficient of the x term on the right side is also 1: $\displaystyle a_1 = 1$ This gives you: $\displaystyle x = x + \sum_{n=2}^{\infty}(2a_{n-2} + a_n)x^n$ Which gives you an interesting result: $\displaystyle a_n = -2a_{n-2}$ Now you have your power series: $\displaystyle f(x) = \sum_{n=2}^{\infty}-2a_{n-2}x^n$ This gives you: $\displaystyle f(x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}-2a_nx^{n+2}$

JoVE Core Statistik Mean Absolute Deviation ##### Vorheriges Video4.10: Chebyshev’s Theorem to Interpret Standard Deviation The mean absolute deviation provides the absolute value of the average difference between the data values and the mean. It is calculated as the sum of the absolute deviations from the mean divided by the sample size. For example, three students have three, five, and seven cookies in their lunch boxes. The deviations in the number of cookies from the mean of five cookies are minus 2, zero, and two. If one adds these deviations, the positive and negative values cancel each other out, giving a zero mean deviation, which is unhelpful. If the absolute values are added, one obtains a single non-zero value instead. This value, when divided by the sample size, gives the mean absolute deviation. Calculating the mean absolute deviation involves a non-algebraic modulus operation, while the standard deviation uses algebraic operations. Therefore it is not suitable for inferential statistics. It is also a biased statistic, as the calculated mean absolute deviation of a sample does not adequately represent the population mean absolute deviation. ## Mean Absolute Deviation The mean absolute deviation is also a measure of the variability of data in a sample. It is the absolute value of the average difference between the data values and the mean. Let us consider a dataset containing the number of unsold cupcakes in five shops: 10, 15, 8, 7, and 10. Initially, calculate the sample mean. Then calculate the deviation, or the difference, between each data value and the mean. Next, the absolute values of these deviations are added and divided by the sample size to obtain the mean absolute deviation. In the above data set, the obtained mean is 10. The deviations from the mean are 0, 5,-2,-3, and 0. The absolute values of these deviations are 0,5,2,3, and 0. Upon adding these, we get a sum of 10. Upon dividing ten by the sample size, we get a value of 5, which is the mean absolute deviation. It is noteworthy that the mean absolute deviation is computed using absolute values, so it involves using a non-algebraic  operation. Hence, the mean absolute deviation cannot be used in inferential statistics, which involves using algebraic operations. Furthermore, the mean absolute deviation of a sample is biased, as it doesn’t adequately represent the mean absolute deviation of a population.

Section 5.3 Conditional Probability and Independence The Practice of Statistics, 4th edition – For AP* STARNES, YATES, MOORE Chapter 5 Probability: What Are the Chances? 5.1 Randomness, Probability, and Simulation 5.2 Probability Rules 5.3 Conditional Probability and Independence Section 5.3 Conditional Probability and Independence Learning Objectives After this section, you should be able to… DEFINE conditional probability COMPUTE conditional probabilities DESCRIBE chance behavior with a tree diagram DEFINE independent events DETERMINE whether two events are independent APPLY the general multiplication rule to solve probability questions Conditional Probability and Independence What is Conditional Probability? The probability we assign to an event can change if we know that some other event has occurred. This idea is the key to many applications of probability. When we are trying to find the probability that one event will happen under the condition that some other event is already known to have occurred, we are trying to determine a conditional probability. Conditional Probability and Independence Definition: The probability that one event happens given that another event is already known to have happened is called a conditional probability. Suppose we know that event A has happened. Then the probability that event B happens given that event A has happened is denoted by P(B | A). Read | as “given that” or “under the condition that” Conditional Probability and Independence Example: Grade Distributions Consider the two-way table on page Define events E: the grade comes from an EPS course, and L: the grade is lower than a B. Conditional Probability and Independence Total Total 6300 1600 2100 Find P(L) Find P(E | L) Find P(L | E) P(L) = 3656 / = P(E | L) = 800 / 3656 = P(L| E) = 800 / 1600 = Conditional Probability and Independence When knowledge that one event has happened does not change the likelihood that another event will happen, we say the two events are independent. Conditional Probability and Independence Definition: Two events A and B are independent if the occurrence of one event has no effect on the chance that the other event will happen. In other words, events A and B are independent if P(A | B) = P(A) and P(B | A) = P(B). Are the events “male” and “left-handed” independent? Justify your answer. Example: P(left-handed | male) = 3/23 = 0.13 P(left-handed) = 7/50 = 0.14 These probabilities are not equal, therefore the events “male” and “left-handed” are not independent. Conditional Probability and Independence Tree Diagrams We learned how to describe the sample space S of a chance process in Section Another way to model chance behavior that involves a sequence of outcomes is to construct a tree diagram. Conditional Probability and Independence Consider flipping a coin twice. What is the probability of getting two heads? Sample Space: HH HT TH TT So, P(two heads) = P(HH) = 1/4 Conditional Probability and Independence General Multiplication Rule The idea of multiplying along the branches in a tree diagram leads to a general method for finding the probability P(A ∩ B) that two events happen together. Conditional Probability and Independence The probability that events A and B both occur can be found using the general multiplication rule P(A ∩ B) = P(A) • P(B | A) where P(B | A) is the conditional probability that event B occurs given that event A has already occurred. General Multiplication Rule Conditional Probability and Independence Example: Teens with Online Profiles The Pew Internet and American Life Project finds that 93% of teenagers (ages 12 to 17) use the Internet, and that 55% of online teens have posted a profile on a social-networking site. What percent of teens are online and have posted a profile? Conditional Probability and Independence 51.15% of teens are online and have posted a profile. Example: Who Visits YouTube? See the example on page 320 regarding adult Internet users. What percent of all adult Internet users visit video-sharing sites? P(video yes ∩ 18 to 29) = • 0.7 =0.1890 P(video yes ∩ 30 to 49) = 0.45 • 0.51 =0.2295 P(video yes ∩ 50 +) = 0.28 • 0.26 =0.0728 P(video yes) = = Conditional Probability and Independence Independence: A Special Multiplication Rule When events A and B are independent, we can simplify the general multiplication rule since P(B| A) = P(B). Conditional Probability and Independence Definition: Multiplication rule for independent events If A and B are independent events, then the probability that A and B both occur is P(A ∩ B) = P(A) • P(B) Following the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster, it was determined that the failure of O-ring joints in the shuttle’s booster rockets was to blame. Under cold conditions, it was estimated that the probability that an individual O-ring joint would function properly was Assuming O-ring joints succeed or fail independently, what is the probability all six would function properly? Example: P(joint1 OK and joint 2 OK and joint 3 OK and joint 4 OK and joint 5 OK and joint 6 OK) =P(joint 1 OK) • P(joint 2 OK) • … • P(joint 6 OK) =(0.977)(0.977)(0.977)(0.977)(0.977)(0.977) = 0.87 Conditional Probability and Independence Calculating Conditional Probabilities If we rearrange the terms in the general multiplication rule, we can get a formula for the conditional probability P(B | A). Conditional Probability and Independence General Multiplication Rule P(A ∩ B) = P(A) • P(B | A) P(A ∩ B) P(A) P(B | A) To find the conditional probability P(B | A), use the formula Conditional Probability Formula = Conditional Probability and Independence Example: Who Reads the Newspaper? In Section 5.2, we noted that residents of a large apartment complex can be classified based on the events A: reads USA Today and B: reads the New York Times. The Venn Diagram below describes the residents. What is the probability that a randomly selected resident who reads USA Today also reads the New York Times? Conditional Probability and Independence There is a 12.5% chance that a randomly selected resident who reads USA Today also reads the New York Times. Section 5.3 Conditional Probability and Independence Summary In this section, we learned that… If one event has happened, the chance that another event will happen is a conditional probability. P(B|A) represents the probability that event B occurs given that event A has occurred. Events A and B are independent if the chance that event B occurs is not affected by whether event A occurs. If two events are mutually exclusive (disjoint), they cannot be independent. When chance behavior involves a sequence of outcomes, a tree diagram can be used to describe the sample space. The general multiplication rule states that the probability of events A and B occurring together is P(A ∩ B)=P(A) • P(B|A) In the special case of independent events, P(A ∩ B)=P(A) • P(B) The conditional probability formula states P(B|A) = P(A ∩ B) / P(A) Looking Ahead… In the next Chapter… We’ll learn how to describe chance processes using the concept of a random variable.

# Proof Prove if $x,y,$ and $b$ are positive real values with $b \neq 1$, then $$\displaystyle{\log_b \frac{x}{y} = \log_b x - \log_b y}$$ First note that we can evaluate $\log_b x$ and $\log_b y$, since $x,y,$ and $b$ are positive real values with $b \neq 1$. Let us denote these two values by $m$ and $n$, so that $$\log_b x = m \quad \textrm{and} \quad \log_b y = n$$ If we express the above in exponential form, we have $$b^m = x \quad \textrm{and} \quad b^n = y$$ With the above, the rest of the proof follows quickly, as shown below. Notice how the proof hinges on the fact that $\displaystyle{\frac{b^m}{b^n} = b^{m-n}}$, one of our laws of exponents. $$\begin{array}{rcl} \log_b \frac{x}{y} &=& \log_b \frac{b^m}{b^n}\\ &=& \log_b b^{m-n}\\ &=& m - n\\ &=& \log_b x - \log_b y \end{array}$$
# 3- Quick start to False position method for roots finding. ### False position method. The false position method is another numerical method for root finding, The same Solved problem, will be used to get the root for f(x), but this time using another method that is called false position, or regula -falsi, which can be done by substituting the formula shown here. Xr is the horizontal distance to the root point, where x1 and x2 are the distance from the point(0.0) to the first left bracket point and right bracket point, respectively. While b1 and b2, represent the value of the function at the left bracket point and the value of the function at the right bracket point. ### A Solved problem for the false position method. We have used previously the function for which f(x)=x^3 -6x^2 +11x-6. Find the zeros of the function by the False position method considering a0 as equal to 2.50 and b= 4. as before. xr numerator is (x right*yleft-x left*y right), while the denominator =(yleft- y right). The steps are as follows: 1-The solution we have before a0 as =2.50 will give us an f(a0) =-0.375, and we have b. =4 that is giving f(b)= f(4)=+6.0. 2- If we assume that this is a sketch of the graph. If we assume that this is a sketch of the graph. The graph intersects the x-axis at a certain point, and now we would like to know what will be the x1 value and, accordingly, the function f(x1). 3- We apply in the equation of xr=((b0)*f(a0)- a0*f(b0))/(f(a0)-f(b0) The b0=4.0. and a0=2.50. 4-The function of f(b0) is 6, and the function of (a0)= f(a0)=-0.375 hen  xr=((4-*0.375)-(2.50*6)/(-0.375-6) =2.588. 5- Our next step is trying to find what is the function, value at x1=2.588. So we plug in the function. by putting f(x)= f(2.588).We substitute the result as -0.3847. This point is considered a new left bracket point. 6-We can make a left bracket here, and we have the bracket for the positive value again, the function of x at x=4 or b=4; it is a right bracket point. We join this point with the other point that has a positive value. of +6. Our false position again moves from a=2.50 to x =2.588. which is very close to the required x value that gives zero. 7- We apply in the equation of xr=((b0)*f(a0)- a0*f(b0))/(f(a0)-f(b0) The b0=4.0. and a0=2.588. f(a0)=-0.36801, b0=4, f(b0)=+6. Our new value of xr=(4*(-0.38469)-(2.588)*(6))/(-0.38469-6)=2.673. 8- We will substitute in the function; we get f(2.673), which=-0.36801, and it will give (-)minus, which means it is the new left bracket. We can check f(2.673)f(4) is with a negative sign, that is, (-0.384696=-2.2085. 9- We apply in the equation of xr=((b0)*f(a0)- a0*f(b0))/(f(a0)-f(b0) The b0=4.0. and a0=2.673. f(a0)=-0.368019,b0=4, f(b0)=+6. Our new value of xr=(4*(-0.368019)-(2.588)*(6))/(-0.36801-6)=2.7499. 10-We will substitute in the function; we get f(2.749), which=-0.328, will give (-)minus, which means it is the new left bracket. We can check f(2.749)*f(4) is with a negative sign, that is, (-0.328*6)=-1.9688. 11- We apply in the equation of xr=((b0)*f(a0)- a0*f(b0))/(f(a0)-f(b0) The b0=4.0. and a0=2.7499. f(a0)=-0.328, b0=4, f(b0)=+6. Our new value of xr=(4*(-0.328)-(2.7499)*(6))/(-0.328-6)=2.8147.- We apply in the equation of xr=((b0)*f(a0)- a0*f(b0))/(f(a0)-f(b0) The b0=4.0. and a0=2.673. f(a0)=-0.368019,b0=4, f(b0)=+6. Our new value of xr=(4*(-0.368019)-(2.588)*(6))/(-0.36801-6)=2.7499. We will substitute in the function; we get f(2.8147), which=-0.2741, it will give (-)minus, which means it is the new left bracket. We can check f(2.8147)*f(4) is with a negative sign, that is, (-0.2741*6=-1.643. We have reached x5, as we can see in the next slides, x5=2.866, with a -ve value, and again it is the new left bracket, coming closer to b=4. The details of the calculation are shown in the next image. We plug in x=2.866 as a0. While f(2.866)=f(a0)=-0.216, we can get a new point of x=2.905. THIS POINT is a left bracket point. ### The table for the number of iterations. This is the table for 20iterations at x20, the value =3.00. f(x=3)=0, the calculations are performed using an Excel sheet as shown in the next slide image.

Line Symmetry • A figure has a line symmetry, if there is a line about which the figure may be folded so that the two parts of the figure will coincide. Lines of symmetry for regular polygons • A polygon is said to be regular if all its sides are of equal length and all its angles are of equal measure. • An equilateral triangle is regular because each of its sides has same length and each of its angles measures 60°. • A square is also regular because all its sides are of equal length and each of its angles is a right angle (i.e., 90°). Its diagonals are seen to be perpendicular bisectors of one another. • If a pentagon is regular, naturally, its sides should have equal length. The measure of each of its angles is 108°. • A regular hexagon has all its sides equal and each of its angles measures 120°. Rotational symmetry • Rotation turns an object about a fixed point. This fixed point is the centre of rotation. The angle by which the object rotates is the angle of rotation. • A half-turn means rotation by 180°; a quarter-turn means rotation by 90°. Rotation may be clockwise or anticlockwise. • If, after a rotation, an object looks exactly the same, we say that it has a rotational symmetry. • In a complete turn (of 360°), the number of times an object looks exactly the same is called the order of rotational symmetry. The order of symmetry of a square, for example, is 4 while, for an equilateral triangle, it is 3. Line Symmetry and Rotational Symmetry • Some shapes have only one line of symmetry, like the letter E; some have only rotational symmetry, like the letter S; and some have both symmetries like the letter H. Line Symmetry and Mirror Reflection • A shape has line symmetry when one half of it is the mirror image of the other half. • Mirror reflection leads to symmetry, under which the left-right orientations have to be taken care of.

## 502 – Formal systems (3) September 4, 2009 Theorem 2 (Completeness) Whenever ${\Sigma\models\tau,}$ then also ${\Sigma\vdash\tau.}$ ## 175 – Quiz 1 September 4, 2009 Here is quiz 1. Problem 1 is exercise 6.1.16 from the book. (The graph in the book has a typo. The maximum height of the graph is $1/2$ rather than 1.) Using the disk method, the volume can be expressed as $\int_0^{\pi/2}\pi y^2\,dx.$ Here, $y^2=\sin^2 x\cdot \cos^2 x.$ If this expression were not squared, to find the integral would be easier, by a direct substitution. Being squared, we need to work harder. One possible approach is to use some trigonometric identities. For example: • $\sin x\cdot \cos x=\displaystyle\frac{\sin 2x}2,$ so $y^2=\displaystyle\frac{\sin^2 2x}4.$ Again, the fact that the sine expression is squared makes things difficult. We use another trigonometric identity: • $\sin^2\theta=\displaystyle\frac{1-\cos2\theta}2,$ so $y^2=\displaystyle\frac{1-\cos 4x}8.$ Now we can proceed to integrate: $\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/2}\pi y^2\,dx=\displaystyle\frac{\pi}8\int_0^{\pi/2} (1-\cos 4x)\,dx=\displaystyle\frac\pi8\left.\bigl(x+\frac{\sin 4x}4\bigr)\right|_0^{\pi/2},$ which simplifies to $\displaystyle\frac{\pi^2}{16}.$ There are other approaches. For example, other trigonometric identities could be used as well. Also, the book includes a formula for the integral of powers of sine and cosine; we will study this formula later. Trying to use the shell method leads to rather messy expressions, I didn’t work out the full details. I believe that the argument above is perhaps the most efficient. Problem 2 is exercise 6.3.14 from the book. Since $x$ is given as a function of $y,$ the most efficient route seems to be to use $y$ as the parameter, so the expression for the length of the curve takes the form $\int_2^3\sqrt{(x')^2+1}\,dy,$ where the derivative of $x$ is with respect to $y.$ We have $x'=\displaystyle\frac{y^2}2-\frac1{2y^2},$ so $(x')^2+1=\displaystyle \frac{y^4}4-\frac12+\frac1{4y^4}+1=\displaystyle\frac{y^4}4+\frac12+\frac1{4y^4}=\displaystyle\bigl(\frac{y^2}2+\frac1{2y^2}\bigr)^2.$ The expression for the length then reduces to $\displaystyle\int_2^3\bigl(\frac{y^2}2+\frac1{2y^2}\bigr)\,dy=\displaystyle\left.\bigl(\frac{y^3}6-\frac1{2y}\bigr)\right|_2^3$ $=\displaystyle\bigl(\frac{27}6-\frac16\bigr)-\bigl(\frac86-\frac14\bigr)=\displaystyle3+\frac14=3.25.$

# Slope The slope of a line is defined as the rise over the run, m = Δyx. In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line describes its steepness, incline, or grade. A higher slope value indicates a steeper incline. The slope is defined as the ratio of the "rise" divided by the "run" between two points on a line, or in other words, the ratio of the altitude change to the horizontal distance between any two points on the line. Given two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on a line, the slope m of the line is $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}.$ Through differential calculus, one can calculate the slope of the line to a curve at a point. The concept of slope applies directly to grades or gradients in geography and civil engineering. Through trigonometry, the grade m of a road is related to its angle of incline θ by $m = \tan \theta.\!$ In GIS, raster-based slope computation tools estimate the rate of change between each cell and its neighbors. The slope in the output raster is calculated either as a percentage or degree of slope.[1] ## Definition The slope of a line in the plane containing the x and y axes is generally represented by the letter m, and is defined as the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate, between two distinct points on the line. This is described by the following equation: $m = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}.$ (The delta symbol, "Δ", is commonly used in mathematics to mean "difference" or "change".) Given two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2), the change in x from one to the other is x2x1, while the change in y is y2y1. Substituting both quantities into the above equation obtains the following: $m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}.$ Note that the way the points are chosen on the line and their order does not matter; the slope will be the same in each case. Other curves have "accelerating" slopes and one can use calculus to determine such slopes. ## Examples Suppose a line runs through two points: P(1,2) and Q(13,8). By dividing the difference in y-coordinates by the difference in x-coordinates, one can obtain the slope of the line: $m = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{8 - 2}{13 - 1} = \frac{6}{12} = \frac{1}{2}.$ The slope is $\textstyle\frac{1}{2} = 0.5\,$. As another example, consider a line which runs through the points (4, 15) and (3, 21). Then, the slope of the line is $m = \frac{ 21 - 15}{3 - 4} = \frac{6}{-1} = -6.$ ## Geometry The greater the absolute value of a slope, the steeper the line. A horizontal line has slope 0, a 45° rising line has a slope of +1, and a 45° falling line has a slope of -1. A vertical line's slope is undefined meaning it has "no slope." The angle θ a line makes with the positive x axis is closely related to the slope m via the tangent function: $m = \tan\,\theta$ and $\theta = \arctan\,m$. Two lines are parallel if and only if their slopes are equal and they are not coincident or if they both are vertical and therefore have undefined slopes. Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1 or one has a slope of 0 (a horizontal line) and the other has an undefined slope (a vertical line). Also, another way to determine a perpendicular line is to find the slope of one line and then to get its reciprocal and then reversing its positive or negative sign (e.g. a line perpendicular to a line of slope -2 is +1/2). ### Slope of a road or railway There are two common ways to describe how steep a road or railroad is. One is by the angle in degrees, and the other is by the slope in a percentage. See also mountain railway and rack railway. The formulae for converting a slope as a percentage into an angle in degrees and vice versa are: $\mbox{angle} = \arctan \frac{\mbox{slope}}{100} ,$ and $\mbox{slope} = 100 \tan( \mbox{angle}),\,$ where angle is in degrees and the trigonometry functions operate in degrees. For example, a 100% or 1000‰ slope is 45°. A third way is to give one unit of rise in say 10, 20, 50 or 100 horizontal units, e.g. 1:10. 1:20, 1:50 or 1:100 (etc.). ## Algebra If y is a linear function of x, then the coefficient of x is the slope of the line created by plotting the function. Therefore, if the equation of the line is given in the form $y = mx + b \,$ then m is the slope. This form of a line's equation is called the slope-intercept form, because b can be interpreted as the y-intercept of the line, the y-coordinate where the line intersects the y-axis. If the slope m of a line and a point (x0,y0) on the line are both known, then the equation of the line can be found using the point-slope formula: $y - y_0 = m(x - x_0).\!$ For example, consider a line running through the points (2,8) and (3,20). This line has a slope, m, of $\frac {(20 - 8)}{(3 - 2)} \; = 12. \,$ One can then write the line's equation, in point-slope form: $y - 8 = 12(x - 2) = 12x - 24 \,$ or: $y = 12x - 16. \,$ The slope of a linear equation in the general form: $ax + by + c = 0 \,$ is: $-\frac {a}{b}\,$ ## Calculus At each point, the derivative is the slope of a line that is tangent to the curve. The line is always tangent to the blue curve; its slope is the derivative. Note derivative is positive where green, negative where red, and zero where black The concept of a slope is central to differential calculus. For non-linear functions, the rate of change varies along the curve. The derivative of the function at a point is the slope of the line tangent to the curve at the point, and is thus equal to the rate of change of the function at that point. If we let Δx and Δy be the distances (along the x and y axes, respectively) between two points on a curve, then the slope given by the above definition, $m = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$, is the slope of a secant line to the curve. For a line, the secant between any two points is the line itself, but this is not the case for any other type of curve. For example, the slope of the secant intersecting y = x2 at (0,0) and (3,9) is 3. (The slope of the tangent at x = 32 is also 3—a consequence of the mean value theorem.) By moving the two points closer together so that Δy and Δx decrease, the secant line more closely approximates a tangent line to the curve, and as such the slope of the secant approaches that of the tangent. Using differential calculus, we can determine the limit, or the value that Δyx approaches as Δy and Δx get closer to zero; it follows that this limit is the exact slope of the tangent. If y is dependent on x, then it is sufficient to take the limit where only Δx approaches zero. Therefore, the slope of the tangent is the limit of Δyx as Δx approaches zero. We call this limit the derivative. ## Terrain Slope Analysis in GIS In this image, a DEM for the state of Utah was converted to a raster displaying the slope of Utah in degrees. Slope analysis for this image was done in a GIS using a surface analyst toolbox. In GIS mapping slope can be very important for a variety of reasons including suitability analysis, predictive modeling, and predicting potential hazards. Analyzing the terrain slope of a given location plays an important part in fields such as hydrology, site planning, conservation, and infrastructure development [2]. Slope can be calculated from a Digital Elevation Model which form an important part of many GIS datasets; equally important are the parameters and techniques used to calculate terrain slope as well as other analyses performed with a DEM [3] . In Suitability analysis or predictive modeling, by calculating the slope within a GIS, areas can be eliminated that aren't suitable or that don't fit within the model. In predicting potential hazards, areas can be seen as dangerous due to the steepness of a slope. This is a very powerful and useful tool in GIS. Slope is calculated in a GIS by comparing a certain point within a raster to that point's neighbors. Usually a point is compared with eight of its neighbors to derive its slope, but the exact method varies depending on the specific slope analysis desired [4]. ## GIS&T Body of Knowledge Concept This page is part of topic AM6-1 (Calculating surface derivatives) in the 2006 GIS&T Body of Knowledge.

## Section12.2Completing the Square In this section, we will learn how to “complete the square” with a quadratic expression. This topic is very useful for solving quadratic equations and putting quadratic functions in vertex form. ### Subsection12.2.1Solving Quadratic Equations by Completing the Square When we have an equation like $(x+5)^2=4\text{,}$ we can solve it quickly using the square root property: \begin{align*} (x+5)^2\amp=4 \end{align*} \begin{align*} x+5\amp=-2\amp\text{or}\amp\amp x+5\amp=2\\ x\amp=-7\amp\text{or}\amp\amp x\amp=-3 \end{align*} The method of completing the square allows us to solve any quadratic equation using the square root property. The challenge is that most quadratic equations don't come with a perfect square already on one side. Let's explore how to do this by looking at some perfect square trinomials to see the pattern. \begin{align*} (x+\highlight{1})^2\amp=x^2+\highlight{2}x+\lighthigh{1}\\ (x+\highlight{2})^2\amp=x^2+\highlight{4}x+\lighthigh{4}\\ (x+\highlight{3})^2\amp=x^2+\highlight{6}x+\lighthigh{9}\\ (x+\highlight{4})^2\amp=x^2+\highlight{8}x+\lighthigh{16}\\ (x+\highlight{5})^2\amp=x^2+\highlight{10}x+\lighthigh{25}\\ \amp\vdots \end{align*} There is an important pattern here. Notice that with each middle coefficient on the right, you may cut it in half to get the constant term in the binomial on the left side. And then you may square that number to get the constant term back on the right side. Mathematically, this says: \begin{equation*} \left(x+\highlight{\frac{b}{2}}\right)^2=x^2+\highlight{b}x+\lighthigh{\left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2} \end{equation*} We will use this fact to make perfect square trinomials. ###### Example12.2.3 Solve the quadratic equation $x^2+6x=16$ by completing the square. Explanation To solve the quadratic equation $x^2+6x=16\text{,}$ on the left side we can complete the square by adding $\left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2\text{;}$ note that $b=6$ in this case, which makes $\left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2=\left(\frac{6}{2}\right)^2=3^2=9\text{.}$ We add it to both sides to maintain equality. Now that we have completed the square, we can solve the equation using the square root property. \begin{align*} x+3\amp=-5\amp\text{or}\amp\amp x+3\amp=5\\ x\amp=-8\amp\text{or}\amp\amp x\amp=2 \end{align*} The solution set is $\{-8, 2\}.$ Now let's see the process for completing the square when the quadratic equation is given in standard form. ###### Example12.2.4 Solve $x^2-14x+11=0$ by completing the square. Explanation We will solve $x^2-14x+11=0\text{.}$ We see that the polynomial on the left side is not a perfect square trinomial, so we need to complete the square. We subtract $11$ from both sides so we can add the missing term on the left. \begin{align*} x^2-14x+11\amp=0\\ x^2-14x\amp=-11 \end{align*} Next comes the completing-the-square step. We need to add the correct number to both sides of the equation to make the left side a perfect square. Remember that Fact 12.2.2 states that we need to use $\left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2$ for this. In our case, $b=-14\text{,}$ so $\left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2=\left(\frac{-14}{2}\right)^2=49$ \begin{align*} x-7\amp=-\sqrt{38}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp x-7\amp=\sqrt{38}\\ x\amp=7-\sqrt{38}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp x\amp=7+\sqrt{38} \end{align*} The solution set is $\{7-\sqrt{38}, 7+\sqrt{38}\}\text{.}$ Here are some more examples. ###### Example12.2.5 Complete the square to solve for $y$ in $y^2-20y-21=0\text{.}$ Explanation To complete the square, we will first move the constant term to the right side of the equation. Then we will use Fact 12.2.2 to find $\left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2$ to add to both sides. \begin{align*} y^2-20y-21\amp=0\\ y^2-20y\amp=21 \end{align*} In our case, $b=-20\text{,}$ so $\left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2=\left(\frac{-20}{2}\right)^2=100$ \begin{align*} y-10\amp=-11\amp\text{or}\amp\amp y-10\amp=11\\ y\amp=-1\amp\text{or}\amp\amp y\amp=21 \end{align*} The solution set is $\{-1, 21\}\text{.}$ So far, the value of $b$ has been even each time, which makes $\frac{b}{2}$ a whole number. When $b$ is odd, we will end up adding a fraction to both sides. Here is an example. ###### Example12.2.6 Complete the square to solve for $z$ in $z^2-3z-10=0\text{.}$ Explanation We will first move the constant term to the right side of the equation: \begin{align*} z^2-3z-10\amp=0\\ z^2-3z\amp=10 \end{align*} Next, to complete the square, we will need to find the right number to add to both sides. According to Fact 12.2.2, we need to divide the value of $b$ by $2$ and then square the result to find the right number. First, divide by $2\text{:}$ $$\frac{b}{2}=\frac{-3}{2}=-\frac{3}{2}\label{equation-completing-square-3-over-2}\tag{12.2.1}$$ and then we square that result: $$\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)^2=\frac{9}{4}\label{equation-completing-square-9-over-4}\tag{12.2.2}$$ Now we can add the $\frac{9}{4}$ from Equation (12.2.2) to both sides of the equation to complete the square. Now, to factor the seemingly complicated expression on the left, just know that it should always factor using the number from the first step in the completing the square process, Equation (12.2.1). \begin{align*} \left(z\mathbin{\highlight{-}}\highlight{\frac{3}{2}}\right)^2\amp=\frac{49}{4} \end{align*} \begin{align*} z-\frac{3}{2}\amp=-\frac{7}{2}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp z-\frac{3}{2}\amp=\frac{7}{2}\\ z\amp=\frac{3}{2}-\frac{7}{2}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp z\amp=\frac{3}{2}+\frac{7}{2}\\ z\amp=-\frac{4}{2}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp z\amp=\frac{10}{2}\\ z\amp=-2\amp\text{or}\amp\amp z\amp=5 \end{align*} The solution set is $\{-2,5\}\text{.}$ In each of the previous examples, the value of $a$ was equal to $1\text{.}$ This is necessary for our missing term formula to work. When $a$ is not equal to $1$ we will divide both sides by $a\text{.}$ Let's look at an example of that. ###### Example12.2.7 Solve for $r$ in $2r^2+2r=3$ by completing the square. Explanation Because there is a leading coefficient of $2\text{,}$ we will divide both sides by $2\text{.}$ \begin{align*} 2r^2+2r\amp=3\\ \divideunder{2r^2}{2}+\divideunder{2r}{2}\amp=\divideunder{3}{2}\\ r^2+r\amp=\frac{3}{2} \end{align*} Next, we will complete the square. Since $b=1\text{,}$ first, $$\frac{b}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\label{equation-completing-square-1-over-2}\tag{12.2.3}$$ and next, squaring that, we have $$\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2=\frac{1}{4}\text{.}\label{equation-completing-square-1-over-4}\tag{12.2.4}$$ So we will add $\frac{1}{4}$ from Equation (12.2.4) to both sides of the equation: Here, remember that we always factor with the number found in the first step of completing the square, Equation (12.2.3). \begin{align*} \left(r+\highlight{\frac{1}{2}}\right)^2\amp=\frac{7}{4} \end{align*} \begin{align*} r+\frac{1}{2}\amp=-\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp r+\frac{1}{2}\amp=\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}\\ r\amp=-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp r\amp=-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}\\ r\amp=\frac{-1-\sqrt{7}}{2}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp r\amp=\frac{-1+\sqrt{7}}{2} \end{align*} The solution set is $\left\{\frac{-1-\sqrt{7}}{2}, \frac{-1+\sqrt{7}}{2}\right\}\text{.}$ ### Subsection12.2.2Deriving the Vertex Formula and the Quadratic Formula by Completing the Square In Section 9.2, we learned a formula to find the vertex. In Section 8.4, we learned the Quadratic Formula. You may have wondered where they came from, and now that we know how to complete the square, we can derive them. We will solve the standard form equation $ax^2+bx+c=0$ for $x\text{.}$ First, we subtract $c$ from both sides and divide both sides by $a\text{.}$ \begin{align*} ax^2+bx+c\amp=0\\ ax^2+bx\amp=\subtractright{c}\\ \divideunder{ax^2}{a}+\divideunder{bx}{a}\amp=-\divideunder{c}{a}\\ x^2+\frac{b}{a}x\amp=-\frac{c}{a} \end{align*} Next, we will complete the square by taking half of the middle coefficient and squaring it. First, $$\frac{\frac{b}{a}}{2}=\frac{b}{2a}\label{equation-completing-square-b-over-2a}\tag{12.2.5}$$ and then squaring that we have $$\left(\frac{b}{2a}\right)^2=\frac{b^2}{4a^2}\label{equation-completing-square-b2-over-4a2}\tag{12.2.6}$$ We add the $\frac{b^2}{4a^2}$ from Equation (12.2.6) to both sides of the equation: Remember that the left side always factors with the value we found in the first step of the completing the square process from Equation (12.2.5). So we have: \begin{align*} \highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x+\frac{b}{2a}}\right)^2}\amp=\frac{b^2}{4a^2}-\frac{c}{a} \end{align*} To find a common denominator on the right, we multiply by $4a$ in the numerator and denominator on the second term. \begin{align*} \left(x+\frac{b}{2a}\right)^2\amp=\frac{b^2}{4a^2}-\frac{c}{a}\multiplyright{\frac{4a}{4a}}\\ \left(x+\frac{b}{2a}\right)^2\amp=\frac{b^2}{4a^2}-\frac{4ac}{4a^2}\\ \left(x+\frac{b}{2a}\right)^2\amp=\frac{b^2-4ac}{4a^2} \end{align*} Now that we have completed the square, we can see that the $x$-value of the vertex is $-\frac{b}{2a}\text{.}$ That is the vertex formula. Next, we will solve the equation using the square root property to find the Quadratic Formula. \begin{align*} x+\frac{b}{2a}\amp=\highlight{\pm\sqrt{\unhighlight{\frac{b^2-4ac}{4a^2}}}}\\ x+\frac{b}{2a}\amp=\pm\divideunder{\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\ x\amp=\subtractright{\frac{b}{2a}}\pm\frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\ x\amp=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \end{align*} This shows us that the solutions to the equation $ax^2+bx+c=0$ are $\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}.$ ### Subsection12.2.3Putting Quadratic Functions in Vertex Form In Section 12.1, we learned about the vertex form of a parabola, which allows us to quickly read the coordinates of the vertex. We can now use the method of completing the square to put a quadratic function in vertex form. Completing the square with a function is a little different than with an equation so we will start with an example. ###### Example12.2.8 Write a formula in vertex form for the function $q$ defined by $q(x)=x^2+8x$ Explanation The formula is in the form $x^2+bx\text{,}$ so we will need to add $\left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2$ to complete the square by Fact 12.2.2. When we had an equation, we could add the same quantity to both sides. But now we do not wish to change the left side, since we are trying to end up with a formula that still says $q(x)=\ldots\text{.}$ Instead, we will add and subtract the term from the right side in order to maintain equality. In this case, \begin{align*} \left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2\amp=\left(\frac{8}{2}\right)^2\\ \amp=4^2\\ \amp=16 \end{align*} To maintain equality, we will both add and subtract $16$ on the same side of the equation. It is functionally the same as adding $0$ on the right, but the $16$ makes it possible to factor the expression in a particular way: Now that we have completed the square, our function is in vertex form. The vertex is $(-4,-16)\text{.}$ One way to verify that our work is correct is to graph the original version of the function and check that the vertex is where it should be. Let's look at a function that has a constant term and see how to complete the square. ###### Example12.2.10 Write a formula in vertex form for the function $f$ defined by $f(x)=x^2-12x+3$ Explanation To complete the square, we need to add and subtract $\left(-\frac{12}{2}\right)^2=(-6)^2=36$ on the right side. The vertex is $(6,-33)\text{.}$ In the first two examples, $a$ was equal to $1\text{.}$ When $a$ is not equal to one, we have an additional step. Since we are working with an expression where we intend to preserve the left side as $f(x)=\ldots\text{,}$ we cannot divide both sides by $a\text{.}$ Instead we will factor $a$ out of the first two terms. Let's look at an example of that. ###### Example12.2.11 Write a formula in vertex form for the function $g$ defined by $g(x)=5x^2+20x+25$ Explanation Before we can complete the square, we will factor the $\highlight{5}$ out of the first two terms. \begin{align*} g(x)\amp=\highlight{5}\left(x^2+4x\right)+25 \end{align*} Now we will complete the square inside the parentheses by adding and subtracting $\left(\frac{4}{2}\right)^2=2^2=4\text{.}$ Notice that the constant that we subtracted is inside the parentheses, but it will not be part of our perfect square trinomial. In order to bring it outside, we need to multiply it by $5\text{.}$ We are distributing the $5$ to that term so we can combine it with the outside term. \begin{align*} g(x)\amp=5\left(\highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x^2+4x+4}\right)}-\highlight{4}\right)+25\\ \amp=5\highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x^2+4x+4}\right)}-\multiplyleft{5}4+25\\ \amp=5\left(x+2\right)^2-20+25\\ \amp=5\left(x+2\right)^2+5 \end{align*} The vertex is $(-2,5)\text{.}$ Here is an example that includes fractions. ###### Example12.2.12 Write a formula in vertex form for the function $h$ defined by $h(x)=-3x^2-4x-\frac{7}{4}$ Explanation First, we will factor the leading coefficient out of the first two terms. \begin{align*} h(x)\amp=-3x^2-4x-\frac{7}{4}\\ \amp=-3\left(x^2+\frac{4}{3}x\right)-\frac{7}{4} \end{align*} Next, we will complete the square for $x^2+\frac{4}{3}x$ inside the grouping symbols by adding and subtracting the right number. To find that number, we divide the value of $b$ by two and square the result. That looks like: $$\frac{b}{2}=\frac{\frac{4}{3}}{2}=\frac{4}{3}\cdot\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2}{3}\label{equation-completing-the-square-4-3-over-2}\tag{12.2.7}$$ and then, $$\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^2=\frac{2^2}{3^2}=\frac{4}{9}\label{equation-completing-the-square-2-3squared}\tag{12.2.8}$$ Adding and subtracting the value from Equation (12.2.8), we have: Remember that when completing the square, the expression should always factor with the number found in the first step of the completing-the-square process, Equation (12.2.7). \begin{align*} \amp=-3\highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x+\frac{2}{3}}\right)^2}+\frac{4}{3}-\frac{7}{4}\\ \amp=-3\left(x+\frac{2}{3}\right)^2+\frac{16}{12}-\frac{21}{12}\\ \amp=-3\left(x+\frac{2}{3}\right)^2-\frac{5}{12} \end{align*} The vertex is $\left(-\frac{2}{3},-\frac{5}{12}\right)\text{.}$ Completing the square can also be used to find a minimum or maximum in an application. ###### Example12.2.13 In Example 6.4.19, we learned that artist Tyrone's annual income from paintings can be modeled by $I(x)=-100x^2+1000x+20000\text{,}$ where $x$ is the number of times he will raise the price per painting by $20.00\text{.}$ To maximize his income, how should Tyrone set his price per painting? Find the maximum by completing the square. Explanation To find the maximum is essentially the same as finding the vertex, which we can find by completing the square. To complete the square for $I(x)=-100x^2+1000x+20000\text{,}$ we start by factoring out the $-100$ from the first two terms: \begin{align*} I(x)\amp=-100x^2+1000x+20000\\ \amp=-100\left(x^2-10x\right)+20000\\ \end{align*} Next, we will complete the square for $x^2-10x$ by adding and subtracting $\left(-\frac{10}{2}\right)^2=(-5)^2=\highlight{25}\text{.}$ \begin{align*} I(x)\amp=-100\left(x^2-10x\addright{25}\subtractright{25}\right)+20000\\ \amp=-100\left(\highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x^2-10x+25}\right)}-25\right)+20000\\ \amp=-100\highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x^2-10x+25}\right)}-\left(100\cdot-25\right)+20000\\ \amp=-100(x-5)^2+2500+20000\\ \amp=-100(x-5)^2+22500 \end{align*} The vertex is the point $(5,22500)\text{.}$ This implies Tyrone should raise the price per painting $\substitute{5}$ times, which is $\substitute{5}\cdot20=100$ dollars. He would sell $100-5(\substitute{5})=75$ paintings. This would make the price per painting $200+100=300$ dollars, and his annual income from paintings would become$22500$ by this model. ### Subsection12.2.4Graphing Quadratic Functions by Hand Now that we know how to put a quadratic function in vertex form, let's review how to graph a parabola by hand. ###### Example12.2.14 Graph the function $h$ defined by $h(x)=2x^2+4x-6$ by determining its key features algebraically. Explanation To start, we'll note that this function opens upward because the leading coefficient, $2\text{,}$ is positive. Now we will complete the square to find the vertex. We will factor the $2$ out of the first two terms, and then add and subtract $\left(\frac{2}{2}\right)^2=1^2=\highlight{1}$ on the right side. \begin{align*} h(x)\amp=2\left(x^2+2x\right)-6\\ \amp=2\left[x^2+2x\addright{1}\subtractright{1}\right]-6\\ \amp=2\left[\highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x^2+2x+1}\right)}-1\right]-6\\ \amp=2\highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x^2+2x+1}\right)}-\left(2\cdot1\right)-6\\ \amp=2\left(x+1\right)^2-2-6\\ \amp=2\left(x+1\right)^2-8 \end{align*} The vertex is $(-1,-8)$ so the axis of symmetry is the line $x=-1\text{.}$ To find the $y$-intercept, we'll replace $x$ with $0$ or read the value of $c$ from the function in standard form: \begin{align*} h(\substitute{0})\amp=2(\substitute{0})^2+2(\substitute{0})-6\\ \amp=-6 \end{align*} The $y$-intercept is $(0,-6)$ and we will find its symmetric point on the graph, which is $(-2,-6)\text{.}$ Next, we'll find the horizontal intercepts. We see this function factors so we will write the factored form to get the horizontal intercepts. \begin{align*} h(x)\amp=2x^2+4x-6\\ \amp=2\left(x^2+2x-3\right)\\ \amp=2(x-1)(x+3) \end{align*} The $x$-intercepts are $(1,0)$ and $(-3,0)\text{.}$ Now we will plot all of the key points and draw the parabola. ###### Example12.2.16 Write a formula in vertex form for the function $p$ defined by $p(x)=-x^2-4x-1\text{,}$ and find the graph's key features algebraically. Then sketch the graph. Explanation In this function, the leading coefficient is negative so it will open downward. To complete the square we first factor $-1$ out of the first two terms. \begin{align*} p(x)\amp=-x^2-4x-1\\ \amp=-\left(x^2+4x\right)-1 \end{align*} Now, we add and subtract the correct number on the right side of the function: $\left(\frac{b}{2}\right)^2=\left(\frac{4}{2}\right)^2=2^2=\highlight{4}\text{.}$ \begin{align*} p(x)\amp=-\left(x^2+4x\addright{4}\subtractright{4}\right)-1\\ \amp=-\left(\highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x^2+4x+4}\right)}-4\right)-1\\ \amp=-\highlight{\left(\unhighlight{x^2+4x+4}\right)}-(-4)-1\\ \amp=-\left(x+2\right)^2+4-1\\ \amp=-\left(x+2\right)^2+3 \end{align*} The vertex is $(-2,3)$ so the axis of symmetry is the line $x=-2\text{.}$ We find the $y$-intercept by looking at the value of $c\text{,}$ which is $-1\text{.}$ So, the $y$-intercept is $(0,-1)$ and we will find its symmetric point on the graph, $(-4,-1)\text{.}$ The original expression, $-x^2-4x-1\text{,}$ does not factor so to find the $x$-intercepts we need to set $p(x)=0$ and complete the square or use the quadratic formula. Since we just went through the process of completing the square above, we can use that result to save several repetitive steps. \begin{align*} p(x)\amp=0\\ -\left(x+2\right)^2+3\amp=0\\ -(x+2)^2\amp=-3\\ (x+2)^2\amp=3 \end{align*} \begin{align*} x+2\amp=-\sqrt{3}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp x+2\amp=\sqrt{3}\\ x\amp=-2-\sqrt{3}\amp\text{or}\amp\amp x\amp=-2+\sqrt{3}\\ x\amp\approx-3.73\amp\text{or}\amp\amp x\amp\approx-0.268 \end{align*} The $x$-intercepts are approximately $(-3.7,0)$ and $(-0.3,0)\text{.}$ Now we can plot all of the points and draw the parabola. ### Subsection12.2.5Exercises ###### 1 Use a square root to solve ${\left(y-9\right)^{2}}={4}\text{.}$ ###### 2 Use a square root to solve ${\left(y+4\right)^{2}}={25}\text{.}$ ###### 3 Use a square root to solve ${\left(4y+7\right)^{2}}={4}\text{.}$ ###### 4 Use a square root to solve ${\left(9r-4\right)^{2}}={64}\text{.}$ ###### 5 Use a square root to solve ${\left(r+3\right)^{2}}={14}\text{.}$ ###### 6 Use a square root to solve ${\left(t-4\right)^{2}}={3}\text{.}$ ###### 7 Use a square root to solve ${t^{2}+18t+81}={36}\text{.}$ ###### 8 Use a square root to solve ${x^{2}+4x+4}={81}\text{.}$ ###### 9 Use a square root to solve ${16x^{2}-16x+4}={25}\text{.}$ ###### 10 Use a square root to solve ${81y^{2}+108y+36}={9}\text{.}$ ###### 11 Use a square root to solve ${36y^{2}-72y+36}={17}\text{.}$ ###### 12 Use a square root to solve ${9y^{2}+12y+4}={13}\text{.}$ ###### 13 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${r^{2}+2r}={63}$ ###### 14 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${r^{2}+10r}={-9}$ ###### 15 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${t^{2}-t}={42}$ ###### 16 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${t^{2}-3t}={10}$ ###### 17 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${x^{2}+4x}={6}$ ###### 18 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${x^{2}-8x}={8}$ ###### 19 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${y^{2}-6y+5}={0}$ ###### 20 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${y^{2}-8y-9}={0}$ ###### 21 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${y^{2}+15y+56}={0}$ ###### 22 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${r^{2}-r-42}={0}$ ###### 23 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${r^{2}-2r-6}={0}$ ###### 24 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${t^{2}-10t+3}={0}$ ###### 25 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${12t^{2}+28t+15}={0}$ ###### 26 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${12x^{2}+20x+7}={0}$ ###### 27 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${2x^{2}-x-5}={0}$ ###### 28 Solve the equation by completing the square. ${2x^{2}+5x+1}={0}$ ###### 29 Consider $h(y)={y^{2}+4y+4}\text{.}$ 1.

# Consecutive Integers Formula In mathematics, you often come across problem statements wherein you are required to find two or more consecutive integers if their sum or difference is given to you. A number of times the clause of these consecutive numbers being odd or even is also added. Before simplifying the problem statement and forming its equation, you are supposed to use a variable for one integer and then represent it in the form of its consecutive integers. Let me explain this with the help of an example. Say you have to find two consecutive integers whose sum is 89. How do you go about this problem? You first take a variable, say x, the value of which is unknown to you. Next, you are supposed to take another number. Since the problem requires you to use two consecutive integers, the integer next to x will be (x + 1). Now as per the problem, the sum of x and (x+1) is 89. We represent this in the form of an equation: x + (x + 1) = 89. Solving this equation we get x as 44 and the next integer (x + 1) as 45, the sum of which is 89. Similarly, knowing the consecutive integer formula finds application in a number of mathematical problems. In this section, we will go through some of these formulas. ## Consecutive Integer Formula If n is an integer, (n + 1) and (n + 2) will be the next two consecutive integers. For example, let n be 1. We find its consecutive integers as (1 + 1) and (1 + 2), or 2 and 3. Hence, the formula: n, n+1, n+2, n+3,… ### Even Consecutive Integer Formula In mathematics, we represent an even integer as 2n. If 2n is an even integer, (2n + 2) and (2n + 4) will be the next two even consecutive integers. For example, let 2n be 4, which is an even integer. We find its consecutive integers as (4 + 2) and (4 + 4), or 6 and 8. Hence, the formula: 2n, 2n+2, 2n+4, 2n+6,… Note that the difference between two even consecutive integers here is 2, otherwise we would end up with an integer which is consecutive but not even. ### Odd Consecutive Integer Formula In mathematics, we represent an odd integer as 2n + 1. If 2n + 1 is an odd integer, (2n + 3) and (2n + 5) will be the next two odd consecutive integers. For example, let 2n + 1 be 7, which is an odd integer. We find its consecutive integers as (7 + 2) and (7 + 4), or 9 and 11. Hence, the formula: 2n+1, 2n+3, 2n+5, 2n+7,… Note that the difference between two odd consecutive integers here is 2, otherwise we would end up with an integer which is consecutive but not odd. #### Solved Examples Question: Find three consecutive integers of 76. Solution: Let 76 be n. So the next three consecutive integers will be n + 1, n + 2 and n + 3. 76 + 1, 76 + 2 and 76 + 3 or 77, 78 and 79 Therefore, we have 76, 77, 78, 79 Question: Find three consecutive even integers of -8. Solution: Let -8 be 2n. So the next three consecutive integers will be 2n + 2, 2n + 4 and 2n + 6. -8 + 2, -8 + 4 and -8 + 6 or -6, -4 and -2 Therefore, we have -8, -6, -4, -2 To solve more problems on the topic, download Byju’s -The Learning App.
 Definition and examples Joint variation | define Joint variation - Free Math Dictionary Online # JOINT VARIATION ## Definition of Joint Variation Joint variation is the same as direct variation with two or more quantities. That is: Joint variation is a variation where a quantity varies directly as the product of two or more other quantities Let's first understand direct variation Direct variation occurs when two quantities change in the same manner That is: Increase in one quantity causes an increase in the other quantity Decrease in one quantity causes a decrease in the other quantity For Example: The cost of a pencil and the number of pencils you buy. Direct variation between variables x and y can be expressed as: y = kx, where 'k' is the constant of variation and k ≠ 0 y = kxz represents joint variation. Here, y varies jointly as x and z. ### More Examples on Joint Variation y = 7xz, here y varies jointly as x and z y = 7x2z3, here y varies jointly as x2 and z3 Area of a triangle = is an example of joint variation. Here the constant is 1. Area of a triangle varies jointly with base 'b' and height 'h' Area of a rectangle = L x M represents joint variation. Here the constant is 1. Area of a rectangle varies jointly with length 'l' and width 'w'. ### Solved Example on Joint Variation #### Solution: • Step 1: First set up the equation. a varies jointly with b and c. a = kbc • Step 2: Find the value of the constant, k. Given that a = 12 when b = 1 and c = 6 a = kbc 12 = k x 1 x 6 ⇒ k = 2 • Step 3: Rewrite the equation using the value of the constant 'k' a = 2bc • Step 4: Using the new equation, find the missing value. If b = 2 and c = 3, then a = 2 x 2 x 3 = 12 • Step 5: So, when a varies jointly with b and c and If b = 2 and c = 3, then the value of a is 12. #### Real-world Connections for Joint Variation Force = mass × acceleration. The force exerted on an object varies jointly as the mass of the object and the acceleration produced. Translate : Please provide your email for a free trial as a Teacher or Student.

# Significant Figures Lesson In 2013 I attended the Liverpool friendly football game at the MCG in Melbourne, Australia.  The crowd size was the second largest on record ever, reaching $95446$95446.  When I saw a friend of mine soon after the game, she said a newspaper article had reported $95000$95000 crowd size and asked me what the atmosphere was like. Who is right here?  Is $95000$95000 accurately reported?  Well yes it is if we consider significant figures.  In fact $95400$95400, and $100000$100000 are also correct depending on the level of accuracy you want to use. ## Aren't all numbers significant? Well yes, all the digits in numbers have a particular role to play. They tell us the value of the number, the size of the number or individual place values. Zeros hold the place value in numbers so that we can read and understand them. The concept of significant figures is about representing a number with a certain level of accuracy. Digits that are significant are: • all nonzero digits • zeros appearing between two nonzero digits (holding the place value for us) • trailing zeros in a number containing a decimal point. • all digits in a number using scientific notation ($a\times10^n$a×10n) Here is a demonstration of the first three points: ## Returning to the MCG So let's look at the crowd size at the football game I attended. $95446$95446 - to 1 significant figure would be $100000$100000 (the first significant figure in the number is $9$9, so we are rounding to the nearest ten thousand) - to 2 significant figures would be $95000$95000 (the second significant figure in the number is $5$5, so we are rounding to the nearest thousand) - to 3 significant figures would be $95400$95400 (the third significant figure in the number is $4$4, so we are rounding to the nearest hundred) - to 4 significant figures would be $95450$95450 (the fourth significant figure in the number is $4$4, so we are rounding to the nearest ten) - to 5 significant figures would be $95446$95446 (the fifth significant figure in the number is $6$6, so we are rounding to the nearest one) ## Other significant ideas So for numbers larger than $0$0, using significant figures is about learning how to round a number. The width of a human hair is known to be about $0.023$0.023 cm. Let's see what this measurement becomes if we round to significant figures: - to 1 significant figures it would be $0.02$0.02 (the first significant figure is $2$2, so we are rounding to the nearest hundredth) - to 2 significant figures it would be $0.023$0.023 (the second significant figure is $3$3so we are rounding to the nearest thousandth. See how in this case the leading zeros do not count!) #### Examples Write: the following numbers to the indicated level of significant figures Think: Remember the rules to identify significant figures, • all nonzero digits • zeros appearing between two nonzero digits (holding the place value for us) • trailing zeros in a number containing a decimal point. • all digits in a number using scientific notation ($a\times10^n$a×10n) Do ##### Question 1 $10432$10432 to $3$3 significant figures = $10400$10400    The zero between the $1$1 and the $4$4 is counted as significant. ##### Question 2 $1.040052$1.040052 to $3$3 significant figures = $1.04$1.04     The zero between the $1$1 and $4$4 is counted as significant. ##### Question 3 $6.53126\times10^7$6.53126×107 to $4$4 significant figures = $6.531\times10^7$6.531×107        We only need $4$4 of the digits. ##### Question 4 $6.00002\times10^8$6.00002×108 to $3$3 significant figures = $6.00\times10^8$6.00×108         See how we have to write the zeros here - all the digits count as significant in scientific notation, even the zeros. #### More Worked Examples ##### QUESTION 5 How many significant figures are there in the number 108 486? 1.

# How do you find the vertical, horizontal or slant asymptotes for y=(x^2-5x+4)/ (4x^2-5x+1)? Sep 20, 2017 $\text{vertical asymptote at } x = \frac{1}{4}$ $\text{horizontal asymptote at } y = \frac{1}{4}$ #### Explanation: $\text{factorise and simplify}$ $y = \frac{\cancel{\left(x - 1\right)} \left(x - 4\right)}{\left(4 x - 1\right) \cancel{\left(x - 1\right)}} = \frac{x - 4}{4 x - 1}$ $\text{the removal of the factor "(x-1)" from the}$ $\text{numerator/denominator indicates a hole at x = 1}$ The denominator of y cannot be zero as this would make y undefined. Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that x cannot be and if the numerator is non-zero for this value then it is a vertical asymptote. $\text{solve "4x-1=0rArrx=1/4" is the asymptote}$ $\text{horizontal asymptotes occur as}$ ${\lim}_{x \to \pm \infty} , y \to c \text{ ( a constant)}$ $\text{divide terms on numerator/denominator by x}$ $y = \frac{\frac{x}{x} - \frac{4}{x}}{\frac{4 x}{x} - \frac{1}{x}} = \frac{1 - \frac{4}{x}}{4 - \frac{1}{x}}$ as $x \to \pm \infty , y \to \frac{1 - 0}{4 - 0}$ $\Rightarrow y = \frac{1}{4} \text{ is the asymptote}$ Slant asymptotes occur when the degree of the numerator > degree of the denominator. This is not the case here hence there is no slant asymptote. graph{(x-4)/(4x-1) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Length of table top = 2 m 25 cm = 2.25 m Breadth of table top = 1 m 50 cm = 1.50 m Perimeter of table top = 2 × (length + breadth) = 2 × (2.25 + 1.50) = 2 × 3.75 = 7.5 m Thus, the perimeter of tabletop is 7.5 m. Question 4. What is the length of the wooden strip required to frame a photograph of length and breadth 32 cm and 21 cm respectively? Length of wooden strip = Perimeter of photograph Perimeter of photograph = 2 x (length + breadth) = 2 (32 + 21) = 2 × 53cm =106 cm Thus, the length of the wooden strip required is equal to 106 cm. Question 5. A rectangular piece of land measures 0.7 km by 0.5 km. Each side is to be fenced with 4 rows of wires. What is the length of the wire needed? Since the 4 rows of wires are needed. Therefore the total length of wires is equal to 4 times the perimeter of rectangle. Perimeter of field = 2 × (length + breadth) = 2 × (0.7 + 0.5) = 2 × 1.2 = 2.4 km = 2.4 × 1000 m = 2400 m Thus, the length of wire = 4 × 2400 = 9600 m = 9.6 km Question 6.

What will be the length of each side if the string is used to form: (a) a square? (b) an equilateral triangle? (c) a regular hexagon? Length of string = Perimeter of each figure (a) Perimeter of square = 30 cm ⇒ 4 × side = 30 cm ⇒ Side = $$\frac{30}{4}$$ = 7.5 cm 4 Thus, the length of each side of square is 7.5 cm. (b) Perimeter of equilateral triangle = 30 cm ⇒ 3 × side = 30 cm ⇒ Side = $$\frac{30}{3}$$ = 10 cm Thus, the length of each side of equilateral triangle is 10 cm. (c) Perimeter of hexagon = 30 cm ⇒ 6 × side = 30 cm ⇒ Side = $$\frac{30}{6}$$ = 5 cm Thus, the side of each side of hexagon is 5 cm. Question 12. Two sides of a triangle are 12 cm and 14 cm. The perimeter of the triangle is 36 cm. What is its third side? Let the length of third side be X cm. Length of other two side are 12 cm and 14 cm. Now, Perimeter of triangle = 36 cm ⇒ 12 +14 + X = 36 ⇒ 26 + X = 36 ⇒ X = 36 – 26 = 10 cm Thus, the length of third side is 10 cm Question 13. Find the cost of fencing a square park of side 250 m at the rate of ₹ 20 per metre. Side of square = 250 m Perimeter of square = 4 × side = 4 × 250 = 1000 m Since, cost of fencing of per meter = ₹20 Therefore, the cost of fencing of 1000 meters = 20 × 1000 = ₹ 20,000 Question 14. Find the cost of fencing a rectangular park of length 175 m and breadth 125 m at the rate of × 12 per metre. Length of rectangular park = 175 m Breadth of rectangular park = 125 m Perimeter of park = 2 × (length + breadth) = 2 × (175 + 125) = 2 × 300 = 600 m Since, the cost of fencing park per meter = ₹ 12 Therefore, the cost of fencing park of 600 m = 12 × 600 = ₹ 7,200 Question 15. Sweety runs around a square park of side 75 m. Bulbul runs around a rectangular park with length 60 m and breadth 45 m. Who covers less distance? Distance covered by Sweety = Perimeter of square park Perimeter of square = 4 × side = 4 × 75 = 300 m Thus, distance covered by Sweety is 300 m. Now, distance covered by Bulbul = Perimeter of rectangular park Perimeter of rectangular park = 2 × (length + breadth) = 2 × (60 + 45) = 2 × 105 = 210 m Thus, Bulbul covers the distance of 210 m and Bulbul covers less distance. Question 16. What is the perimeter of each of the following figures? What do you infer from the answers? (a) Perimeter of square = 4 × side = 4 × 25 = 100 cm (b) Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (length + breadth) = 2 × (40 + 10) = 2 × 50 = 100 cm (c) Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (length + breadth) = 2 × (30 + 20) = 2 × 50 = 100 cm (d) Perimeter of triangle = Sum of all sides = 30 cm + 30 cm + 40 cm = 100 cm Thus, all the figures have same perimeter.

(b) Shari does not like his arrangement. She gets him to lay them out like a cross. What is the perimeter of her arrangement [(Fig (ii)]? (c) Which has greater perimeter? (d) Avneet wonders if there is a way of getting an even greater perimeter. Can you find a way of doing this? (The paving slabs must meet along complete edges i.e. they cannot be broken.) (a) The arrangement so formed in Fig (i) is a square of side equal to 3 × side of the square slab ∴ Perimeter of his arrangement in Fig (i) = 4 × ( 3 × side of the square slab) = 4 × ( 3 × 0.5) m = 4 × 1.5 m = 6 m (b) The cross arrangement so formed in Fig (ii) by 9 square slabs, has perimeter, which consists of 20 length segments each equal to side of I a square slab i.e. 0.5 m ∴ Perimeter of her arrangement in Fig (ii) = 20 × ( side of the square slab) = 20 × 0.5 m = 10 m (c) ∵ 10m > 6m ∴ Cross arrangement has greater perimeter (d) ∵ Total number of tiles = 9 ∴ The following arrangement will also have greater perimeter. Since, this arrangement is in the form of rectangle with length and breadth as $$\frac { 9 }{ 2 }$$ m and $$\frac { 1 }{ 2 }$$ respectively. ∴ Perimeter = 2 $$\left(\frac{9}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\right)$$ = 2 × = 10m $$\left[\frac{10}{2}\right]$$ = 10m error: Content is protected !!
# A Beginner’s Guide to Descriptive Statistics Descriptive statistics is a branch of statistics that involves the collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data. It provides a way to summarize and describe the main features of a dataset, allowing us to gain insights and make informed decisions. Whether you are a student, researcher, or professional in any field, understanding descriptive statistics is essential for data analysis and decision-making. In this beginner’s guide, we will explore the key concepts and techniques of descriptive statistics, providing you with a solid foundation to analyze and interpret data effectively. ## 1. What is Descriptive Statistics? Descriptive statistics is the branch of statistics that focuses on summarizing and describing the main features of a dataset. It involves the collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data. The goal of descriptive statistics is to provide a concise and meaningful summary of the data, allowing us to understand its characteristics and draw conclusions. Descriptive statistics can be used to describe various aspects of a dataset, including central tendency, variability, distribution, and correlation. By analyzing these characteristics, we can gain insights into the data and make informed decisions. ### 1.1 Central Tendency Central tendency refers to the measure that represents the center or average of a dataset. It provides a single value that summarizes the entire dataset. The three commonly used measures of central tendency are: • Mean: The mean is calculated by summing all the values in the dataset and dividing by the number of observations. It is affected by extreme values and is sensitive to outliers. • Median: The median is the middle value in a dataset when it is arranged in ascending or descending order. It is less affected by extreme values and is a robust measure of central tendency. • Mode: The mode is the value that appears most frequently in a dataset. It is useful for categorical or discrete data. For example, consider a dataset of exam scores: 80, 85, 90, 95, 100. The mean is (80 + 85 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 5 = 90, the median is 90, and the mode is not applicable as there are no repeated values. ### 1.2 Variability Variability measures the spread or dispersion of a dataset. It provides information about how the data points are distributed around the measures of central tendency. The three commonly used measures of variability are: • Range: The range is the difference between the maximum and minimum values in a dataset. It is affected by extreme values. • Variance: The variance measures the average squared deviation from the mean. It provides a measure of how spread out the data points are. A higher variance indicates greater variability. • Standard Deviation: The standard deviation is the square root of the variance. It provides a measure of the average distance between each data point and the mean. A higher standard deviation indicates greater variability. For example, consider a dataset of daily temperatures: 25, 28, 30, 27, 26. The range is 30 – 25 = 5, the variance is ((25-27)^2 + (28-27)^2 + (30-27)^2 + (27-27)^2 + (26-27)^2) / 5 = 2.8, and the standard deviation is √2.8 ≈ 1.67. ### 1.3 Distribution Distribution refers to the way the data is spread out or distributed across different values. It provides insights into the shape, symmetry, and skewness of the dataset. The three commonly encountered types of distributions are: • Normal Distribution: Also known as the bell curve, the normal distribution is symmetric and characterized by a peak at the mean. Many natural phenomena follow a normal distribution. • Skewed Distribution: A skewed distribution is asymmetric and has a longer tail on one side. It can be either positively skewed (tail on the right) or negatively skewed (tail on the left). • Uniform Distribution: A uniform distribution is characterized by a constant probability for each value within a given range. It is flat and has no peaks or valleys. For example, consider a dataset of heights: 160, 165, 170, 175, 180. The distribution is approximately normal, with a peak around the mean height. ### 1.4 Correlation Correlation measures the strength and direction of the relationship between two variables. It provides insights into how changes in one variable are related to changes in another variable. The correlation coefficient ranges from -1 to 1, where: • A correlation coefficient of -1 indicates a perfect negative correlation, meaning that as one variable increases, the other variable decreases. • A correlation coefficient of 0 indicates no correlation, meaning that there is no relationship between the variables. • A correlation coefficient of 1 indicates a perfect positive correlation, meaning that as one variable increases, the other variable also increases. For example, consider a dataset of study hours and exam scores. If there is a strong positive correlation between study hours and exam scores, it means that as study hours increase, exam scores also increase. Conversely, if there is a strong negative correlation, it means that as study hours increase, exam scores decrease. ## 2. Data Collection and Organization Before analyzing data, it is important to collect and organize it in a systematic manner. This ensures that the data is reliable, complete, and ready for analysis. Here are some key steps in data collection and organization: ### 2.1 Define the Research Question Start by clearly defining the research question or objective. What do you want to investigate or analyze? This will guide the data collection process and help you determine the relevant variables and data sources. ### 2.2 Determine the Data Sources Identify the sources from which you will collect the data. This could include surveys, experiments, observations, existing databases, or secondary sources. Ensure that the data sources are reliable and provide accurate information. ### 2.3 Select the Sample If the dataset is large, it may be impractical to collect data from the entire population. In such cases, you can select a representative sample that reflects the characteristics of the population. Random sampling techniques can help ensure that the sample is unbiased and representative. ### 2.4 Collect the Data Collect the data according to the defined research question and data sources. This may involve conducting surveys, experiments, or observations. Ensure that the data collection process is standardized and consistent to minimize errors and biases. ### 2.5 Organize the Data Once the data is collected, it needs to be organized in a structured format for analysis. This typically involves creating a spreadsheet or database where each variable is assigned a column and each observation is assigned a row. Ensure that the data is labeled and properly formatted for easy analysis. ## 3. Data Analysis and Interpretation After collecting and organizing the data, the next step is to analyze and interpret it. Descriptive statistics provides a range of techniques to summarize and describe the data. Here are some key techniques for data analysis and interpretation: ### 3.1 Descriptive Measures Descriptive measures, such as measures of central tendency and variability, provide a summary of the data. They help us understand the typical values, spread, and distribution of the dataset. By calculating these measures, we can gain insights into the data and make comparisons. ### 3.2 Frequency Distribution A frequency distribution is a table or graph that shows the number of times each value or range of values occurs in a dataset. It provides a visual representation of the distribution of the data. Histograms and bar charts are commonly used to display frequency distributions. ### 3.3 Graphical Representation Graphical representation is a powerful tool for visualizing and interpreting data. It allows us to identify patterns, trends, and outliers in the dataset. Common types of graphs include histograms, bar charts, line graphs, scatter plots, and box plots. ### 3.4 Inferential Statistics Inferential statistics involves making inferences or predictions about a population based on a sample. It uses probability theory and statistical models to estimate population parameters and test hypotheses. Inferential statistics allows us to draw conclusions beyond the observed data. ### 3.5 Data Visualization Data visualization is the process of presenting data in a visual format, such as charts, graphs, or maps. It enhances the understanding and interpretation of data by making complex information more accessible and intuitive. Effective data visualization can reveal patterns, trends, and relationships that may not be apparent in raw data. ## 4. Practical Examples To illustrate the concepts of descriptive statistics, let’s consider some practical examples: ### 4.1 Example 1: Exam Scores Suppose we have a dataset of exam scores for a class of students: • 80, 85, 90, 95, 100 The mean score is (80 + 85 + 90 + 95 + 100) / 5 = 90, the median score is 90, and there is no mode as there are no repeated values. The range is 100 – 80 = 20, the variance is ((80-90)^2 + (85-90)^2 + (90-90)^2 + (95-90)^2 + (100-90)^2) / 5 = 50, and the standard deviation is √50 ≈ 7.07. The distribution is approximately normal, with a peak around the mean score. ### 4.2 Example 2: Heights Consider a dataset of heights for a group of individuals: • 160, 165, 170, 175, 180 The mean height is (160 + 165 + 170 + 175 + 180) / 5 = 170, the median height is 170, and there is no mode as there are no repeated values. The range is 180 – 160 = 20, the variance is ((160-170)^2 + (165-170)^2 + (170-170)^2 + (175-170)^2 + (180-170)^2) / 5 = 50, and the standard deviation is √50 ≈ 7.07. The distribution is approximately normal, with a peak around the mean height. ## 5. Conclusion Descriptive statistics is a fundamental tool for summarizing, analyzing, and interpreting data. It provides valuable insights into the characteristics of a dataset, allowing us to make informed decisions and draw meaningful conclusions. By understanding the concepts and techniques of descriptive statistics, you can effectively analyze and interpret data in various fields, from research and academia to business and finance. Remember to consider the measures of central tendency, variability, distribution, and correlation when analyzing data, and use appropriate graphical representations and inferential statistics for deeper insights. With a solid foundation in descriptive statistics, you can unlock the power of data and make data-driven decisions.
# Introducing Multiplication Page Views: 40952 Email This Lesson Plan to Me Overall Rating: (5.0 stars, 1 ratings) Keywords: Multiplication, Repeated Addition, Manipulatives Subject(s): Math Grades 2 through 4 School: Chimneyrock Elementary School, Cordova, TN Planned By: Amanda Loyacano Original Author: Amanda Loyacano, Cordova Lesson Sequence – Introductory (This will be the students’ first experience with multiplication this school year.) Assessment -Pre: At the beginning of the year, students were given a second grade skills test as well as the ThinkLink test of second grade skills. I have used both of these test data to obtain information about the level of student understanding of multiplication. -Post: Students will be assessed informally during the lesson. Later in the week they will receive a formal assessment to determine their level of skill in multiplication concepts. Instructional Objectives TLW understand the concepts that multiplication is repeated addition. TLW use concrete patterns to predict a product. SPI: 3.1.spi.16 Use the multiplication facts 0, 1, 2, 5, and 10 efficiently & accurately. Procedure - Anticipatory Set Two volunteers will be asked to come to the front and hold out their hands, palms up. Next, I will count out 2 counters into each student’s hand. Then, I will ask the students how they can find the total number of counters in the four hands. This discussion will lead into the actual lesson. Procedure – Multiplication Introduction For the discussion, some ideas they may come up with are: counting the counters by ones (1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1=8), counting the counters by twos (2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 8), etc. Counting by 2’s is the goal for them to recognize. Next, I will show students how we can write the repeated addition sentence as a multiplication sentence, 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 8 is the same as 4 x 2 = 8 (read as 4 times 2 equals 8 & 4 groups off 2 equals 8 counters total). We will then discuss which way is easier to write, repeated addition or multiplication so that students can better understand why we use multiplication. Finally, I will ask students how they could record this example on graph paper. I will use a transparency of graph paper to test out their ideas. Procedure – Supervised Practice First, I will pass out packs of 1-8 index cards, counters, and graph paper to each group of students. Next, we will do an example together. A student will pick a number between 1 and 10. For example, if the number is 3 then each group will place 3 counters on each of their cards, write a repeated addition problem, a multiplication problem, and show it on the graph paper. So, depending on how many index cards they have, each group will arrive at a different multiplication problem. I will write their multiplication sentences on the board so that we can keep a chart of what we have found. We will share after each example and observe what patterns we notice. We will do this example several times using different numbers with students gaining independence as we go along. If there is time, groups may swap the number of index cards they have to try out another group of numbers. Closure To wrap up the lesson we will discuss the patterns that students found. Also, I will pose the question of what would the product be if we had zero index cards because 0’s will be the first group of multiplication facts that we will learn. Meeting Individual Students’ Needs * I will observe students’ level of understanding through questioning & monitoring of progress during the activity: -Reteach/Remediation: I will use guided questions to help students discover how repeated addition is the same as multiplication. “How many groups of you have? How many are in each group? What is the total? What addition and multiplication sentences could we use to show this?” Also, I will use consistent language: “3 groups of 2 added together equals 6, just as 3groups times 2 groups equals 6.” -Enrichment: I will give higher-level groups of students a larger number of index cards or an amount that they cannot easily count by (4 & 6) compared to groups that may have more difficulty who will receive the number of cards that are easier to count by (1, 2, 3, & 5). -Independent Practice: Students will independently complete examples on their own using the index cards, counters, and graph paper. Sheets will be collected at the end of the lesson to monitor their level of understanding. Materials Use Overhead & Graph Paper Transparency To show students how to draw examples Index cards To show groups Counters To show individual parts of the group Graph Paper To show pictures & number sentences Comments This is a great way for kinesthetic & visual learners to understand basic multiplication concepts. Follow-Up Have students create their own multiplication sentences and picture arrays. Materials: Worksheets Other Items: 1 Bag of Math Counters, \$10.00 each, total of \$10.001 Pack of Large Index Cards, \$3.00 each, total of \$3.001 Pack of Graph Paper, \$2.00 each, total of \$2.00
Courses Courses for Kids Free study material Offline Centres More Store # A tea party is arranged for 16 people along two sides of a long table with 8 chairs on each side. Four men wish to sit on one particular side and two on the other side, in how many ways can they be seated? Last updated date: 13th Jul 2024 Total views: 447.6k Views today: 8.47k Verified 447.6k+ views Hint – In this question we have in total 16 seats with 8 on each side of the table. Firstly make these 4+2=6 people sit who have special demand in sitting arrangements. Now when these 6 people are taken care of we are left with 10 people and 4 seats on one side and 6 seats on the other side, use this concept to get the answer. There are 16 people for the tea party. People sit along a long table with 8 chairs on each side. Out of 16, 4 people sit on a particular side and 2 sit on the other side. Therefore first we will make sitting arrangements for those 6 persons who want to sit on some specific side. Now we have remaining (16 - 6) =10 persons to arrange and out of 10, six people can sit on one side as only 6 seats will be reaming after making 2 people sit on one side on special demand and 4 people on other side as 4 people are already being seated on one side on special demand. (Take into consideration that one side has only 8 seats) The number of ways of choosing 6 people out of 10 are ${}^{10}{C_6}$, now there are 4 people remaining and they will automatically place in those 4 seats available on the other side therefore total arrangement for those four people are ${}^4{C_4} = 1$. And now all the 16 people are placed in their seats according to the constraints. Now we have to arrange them. So, the number of ways of arranging 8 people out of 16 on one side and the rest 8 people on other side is$\left( {8! \times 8!} \right)$. So, a possible number of arrangements will be $\Rightarrow {}^{10}{C_6} \times {}^4{C_4} \times 8! \times 8!$ Now as we know${}^n{C_r} = \dfrac{{n!}}{{r!\left( {n - r} \right)!}}$. So, ${}^{10}{C_6} = \dfrac{{10!}}{{4! \times 6!}} = \dfrac{{10.9.8.7.6!}}{{4.3.2.1.6!}} = 210$ And ${}^4{C_4} = \dfrac{{4!}}{{4! \times 0!}} = 1$ So, total number of arrangements is $= 210 \times \left( {8! \times 8!} \right)$. So, this is the required answer. Note – Whenever we face such types of problems the key point is to make special arrangements for the people who are in need of it, then arrange the remaining. Now combination comes with permutation as there are possibilities of these 8 people sitting on one side to rearrange. Thus this concept into consideration, to get through the answer.

# How Many Quarters in 10 Dollars? Last Updated on 10/14/2017 by GS Staff [otw_shortcode_dropcap label=”A:” size=”large” border_color_class=”otw-no-border-color”][/otw_shortcode_dropcap] There are four quarters in one dollar. We can determine this by looking at the below table, which shows the value of one, two, three, and four quarters: Number of QuartersValue 1 Quarter25 Cents 2 Quarters 50 Cents 3 Quarters75 Cents 4 QuartersOne Dollar (\$1.00) If there are four quarters in a dollar, we can determine how many quarters are in 10 dollars by multiplying four quarters by 10. The following equation shows how it is done: 4 (quarters that equal a dollar) x 10 (number of dollars in 10 dollars) = 40 quarters There are 40 quarters in 10 dollars. The below table shows the long way to count the number of quarters in 10 dollars. ## Quarters in 10 Dollars Number of QuartersValue 1 Quarter25 Cents 2 Quarters 50 Cents 3 Quarters75 Cents 4 Quarters\$1.00 5 Quarters\$1.25 6 Quarters\$1.50 7 Quarters\$1.75 8 Quarters\$2.00 9 Quarters\$2.25 10 Quarters\$2.50 11 Quarters\$2.75 12 Quarters\$3.00 13 Quarters\$3.25 14 Quarters\$3.50 15 Quarters\$3.75 16 Quarters\$4.00 17 Quarters\$4.25 18 Quarters\$4.50 19 Quarters\$4.75 20 Quarters\$5.00 21 Quarters\$5.25 22 Quarters\$5.50 23 Quarters\$5.75 24 Quarters\$6.00 25 Quarters\$6.25 26 Quarters\$6.50 27 Quarters\$6.75 28 Quarters\$7.00 29 Quarters\$7.25 30 Quarters\$7.50 31 Quarters\$7.75 32 Quarters\$8.00 33 Quarters\$8.25 34 Quarters\$8.50 35 Quarters\$8.75 36 Quarters\$9.00 37 Quarters\$9.25 38 Quarters\$9.50 39 Quarters\$9.75 40 Quarters\$10.00
# Shape, Space and Measures ## Presentation on theme: "Shape, Space and Measures"— Presentation transcript: Shape, Space and Measures Teach GCSE Maths Shape, Space and Measures The pages that follow are sample slides from the 113 presentations that cover the work for Shape, Space and Measures. A Microsoft WORD file, giving more information, is included in the folder. The animations pause after each piece of text. To continue, either click the left mouse button, press the space bar or press the forward arrow key on the keyboard. Animations will not work correctly unless Powerpoint 2002 or later is used. F4 Exterior Angle of a Triangle This first sequence of slides comes from a Foundation presentation. The slides remind students of a property of triangles that they have previously met. These first slides also show how, from time to time, the presentations ask students to exchange ideas so that they gain confidence. a is called an exterior angle of the triangle We already know that the sum of the angles of any triangle is 180. e.g. 57 + 75 + 48 = 180 57 exterior angle a 75 48 If we extend one side . . . we form an angle with the side next to it ( the adjacent side ) a is called an exterior angle of the triangle exterior angle 57 + 75 + 48 = 180 a Ans: a = 180 – 48 = 132 57 We already know that the sum of the angles of any triangle is 180. e.g. 57 + 75 + 48 = 180 57 exterior angle 132 a 75 48 Tell your partner what size a is. Ans: a = 180 – 48 = 132 ( angles on a straight line ) exterior angle 57 + 75 + 48 = 180 57 132 75 48 We already know that the sum of the angles of any triangle is 180. e.g. 57 + 75 + 48 = 180 57 exterior angle 132 75 48 What is the link between 132 and the other 2 angles of the triangle? ANS: 132 = 57 + 75, the sum of the other angles. The presentations usually end with a basic exercise which can be used to test the students’ understanding of the topic. Solutions are given to these exercises. Formal algebra is not used at this level but angles are labelled with letters. Exercise 1. In the following, find the marked angles, giving your reasons: 115 a (a) 60 b 37 (b) 40 105 c 30 a = 180 - 60 = 120 b = 360 - 120 - 115 - 37 = 88 a 115 120 Exercise Solutions: 115 120 a (a) 60 b 37 a = 180 - 60 ( angles on a straight line ) = 120 b = 360 - 120 - 115 - 37 (angles of quadrilateral ) = 88 x = 180 - 30 = 150 c = 360 - 105 - 40 - 150 = 65 40 105 150 Exercise (b) 40 105 150 x c 30 Using an extra letter: x = 180 - 30 ( angles on a straight line ) = 150 c = 360 - 105 - 40 - 150 ( angles of quadrilateral ) = 65 F14 Parallelograms By the time they reach this topic, students have already met the idea of congruence. Here it is being used to illustrate a property of parallelograms. To see that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal, we draw a line from one corner to the opposite one. P Q R S SQ is a diagonal Triangles SPQ and QRS are congruent. So, SP = QR and PQ = RS F19 Rotational Symmetry Animation is used here to illustrate a new idea. A B F C E D This “snowflake” has 6 identical branches. When it makes a complete turn, the shape fits onto itself 6 times. The centre of rotation The shape has rotational symmetry of order 6. ( We don’t count the 1st position as it’s the same as the last. ) F21 Reading Scales An everyday example is used here to test understanding of reading scales and the opportunity is taken to point out a common conversion formula. This is a copy of a car’s speedometer. 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 mph km/h Tell your partner what 1 division measures on each scale. It is common to find the “per” written as p in miles per hour . . . but as / in kilometres per hour. Ans: 5 mph on the outer scale and 4 km/h on the inner. Can you see what the conversion factor is between miles and kilometres? Ans: e.g. 160 km = 100 miles. Dividing by 20 gives 8 km = 5 miles F26 Nets of a Cuboid and Cylinder Some students find it difficult to visualise the net of a 3-D object, so animation is used here to help them. Suppose we open a cardboard box and flatten it out. This is a net Rules for nets: We must not cut across a face. We ignore any overlaps. We finish up with one piece. O2 Bearings This is an example from an early Overlap file. The file treats the topic at C/D level so is useful for students working at either Foundation or Higher level. e. g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q e.g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q. Mark the position of R on the diagram. Solution: P x Q x e. g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q e.g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q. Mark the position of R on the diagram. Solution: P x . Q x e. g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q e.g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q. Mark the position of R on the diagram. Solution: P 220 x . Q x If you only have a semicircular protractor, you need to subtract 180 from 220 and measure from south. e. g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q e.g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q. Mark the position of R on the diagram. Solution: P x 40 . Q x If you only have a semicircular protractor, you need to subtract 180 from 220 and measure from south. e. g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q e.g. The bearing of R from P is 220 and R is due west of Q. Mark the position of R on the diagram. Solution: P 220 x . R Q x O21 Pints, Gallons and Litres The slide contains a worked example. The calculator clipart is used to encourage students to do the calculation before being shown the answer. 1 millilitre = 1000th of a litre. e.g. The photo shows a milk bottle and some milk poured into a glass. There is 200 ml of milk in the glass. (a) Change 200 ml to litres. (b) Change your answer to (a) into pints. Solution: (a) 1 millilitre = 1000th of a litre. 200 1000 1 200 millilitre = = 0·2 litre (b) 1 litre = 1·75 pints 0·2 litre = 0·2  1·75 pints = 0·35 pints O34 Symmetry of Solids Here is an example of an animated diagram which illustrates a point in a way that saves precious class time. Tell your partner if you can spot some planes of symmetry. A 2-D shape can have lines of symmetry. A 3-D object can also be symmetrical but it has planes of symmetry. This is a cuboid. Tell your partner if you can spot some planes of symmetry. Each plane of symmetry is like a mirror. There are 3. H4 Using Congruence (1) In this higher level presentation, students use their knowledge of the conditions for congruence and are learning to write out a formal proof. e.g.1 Using the definition of a parallelogram, prove that the opposite sides are equal. Proof: D B C A We need to prove that AB = DC and AD = BC. Draw the diagonal DB. Tell your partner why the triangles are congruent. ABD = CDB ( alternate angles: AB DC ) (A) e.g.1 Using the definition of a parallelogram, prove that the opposite sides are equal. Proof: D B C A We need to prove that AB = DC and AD = BC. x Draw the diagonal DB. ABD = CDB ( alternate angles: AB DC ) (A) ADB = CBD ( alternate angles: AD BC ) (A) BD is common (S) Triangles are congruent (AAS) ABD CDB ABD = CDB ( alternate angles: AB DC ) (A) e.g.1 Using the definition of a parallelogram, prove that the opposite sides are equal. Proof: D C We need to prove that AB = DC and AD = BC. x x A B Draw the diagonal DB. ABD = CDB ( alternate angles: AB DC ) (A) ADB = CBD ( alternate angles: AD BC ) (A) BD is common (S) Triangles are congruent (AAS) ABD CDB So, AB = DC ABD = CDB ( alternate angles: AB DC ) (A) e.g.1 Using the definition of a parallelogram, prove that the opposite sides are equal. Proof: D C We need to prove that AB = DC and AD = BC. x x A B Draw the diagonal DB. ABD = CDB ( alternate angles: AB DC ) (A) ADB = CBD ( alternate angles: AD BC ) (A) BD is common (S) Triangles are congruent (AAS) ABD CDB So, AB = DC and AD = BC. H16 Right Angled Triangles: Sin x The following page comes from the first of a set of presentations on Trigonometry. It shows a typical summary with an indication that note-taking might be useful. 0·3420… x SUMMARY In a right angled triangle, with an angle x, opp hyp sin x = opp hyp where, opp. is the side opposite ( or facing ) x hyp. is the hypotenuse ( always the longest side and facing the right angle ) The letters “sin” are always followed by an angle. The sine of any angle can be found from a calculator ( check it is set in degrees ) e.g. sin 20 = 0·3420… The next 4 slides contain a list of the 113 files that make up Shape, Space and Measures. The files have been labelled as follows: F: Basic work for the Foundation level. O: Topics that are likely to give rise to questions graded D and C. These topics form the Overlap between Foundation and Higher and could be examined at either level. H: Topics which appear only in the Higher level content. Overlap files appear twice in the list so that they can easily be accessed when working at either Foundation or Higher level. Also for ease of access, colours have been used to group topics. For example, dark blue is used at all 3 levels for work on length, area and volume. The 3 underlined titles contain links to the complete files that are included in this sample.

# CLASS 10 MATH NCERT SOLUTIONS FOR CHAPTER – 3 Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables Ex – 3.1 ## Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables Question 1. Aftab tells his daughter, “Seven years ago, I was seven times as old as you were then. Also, three years from now, I shall be three times as old as you will be”. Isn’t this interesting? Represent this situation algebraically and graphically. Solution: Let the present age of Aftab’s daughter be x years and that of Aftab be y years. Then, seven years ago: Aftab’s age was (y – 7) years and his daughter’s age was (x – 7) years. According to the first condition: y – 7 = 7(x – 7) ⇒   y – 7 = 7x – 49 ⇒ 7x – y = 42    …(i) Five years later: Aftab’s age will be (y + 5) years, and his daughter’s age will be (x + 5) years According to the second condition: y + 5 = 3(x + 5) ⇒  y + 5 = 3x + 15 ⇒ 3x – y = -10    …(ii) For graphical representation: From equation (i), we have: y = 7x – 42 When x = 11, then y = 7 x 11 – 42 = 35 When x = 12, then y = 7 x 12 – 42 = 42 When x = 13, then y = 7 x 13 – 42 = 49 Thus, we have the following table of points: From equation (ii), we have: y = 3x + 10 When x = 9, then y = 3 x 9 + 10 = 37 When x = 10, then y = 3 x 10 + 10 = 40 When x = 13, then y = 3 x 13 + 10 = 49 Thus, we have the following table of points: Plotting the points of each table, we obtain the required graph of two intersecting lines. Question 2. The coach of a cricket team buys 3 bats and 6 balls for ₹ 3900. Later, she buys another bat and 3 more balls of the same kind for ₹1300. Represent this situation algebraically and geometrically. Solution: Let the cost of 1 bat be ₹  x and the cost of 1 ball be ₹ y. Then according to the question, we have: 3x + 6y = 3900       …(i) x + 3y = 1300  …(ii) For geometrical representation: Thus, we have the following table of points: Plotting the points of each table, we obtain the required graph of two intersecting lines. Question 3. The cost of 2 kg of apples and 1 kg of grapes on a day was found to be ₹160.  After a month, the cost of 4 kg of apples and 2 kg of grapes is ₹300. Represent the situation algebraically and geometrically. Solution: Let cost of 1 kg apples be ₹ x and the cost of 1 kg grapes be ₹y. Then according to the question, we have: 2x + y = 160         …(i) 4x + 2y = 300  …(ii) For geometrical representation: From equation (i), we have: y = -2x + 160 When x = 50,  then y = -2 x 50 + 160 =  60 When x = 20, then y = -2 x  20 + 160 = 120 When x = 45, then y = -2 x  45 + 160 = 70 Thus, we have the following table of points: Thus, we have the following table of points: Plotting the points of each table on a graph paper, we obtain the required graph of two parallel lines.
Similarity of two triangles ## Objective To establish the criteria for similarity of two triangles ## Prerequisite Knowledge • Concept of congruence • One-to-one correspondence • Basic proportionality theorem • Angle and Side measurement skills ## Theory Two triangles are similar if: • Their corresponding angles are equal. • Their corresponding sides are in the same ratio or proportion. Similar triangles are triangles that have the same shape, but their sizes may vary. All equilateral triangles and squares of any side length are examples of similar objects. In other words, if two triangles are similar, then their corresponding angles are congruent and their corresponding sides are in equal proportion. ### Criteria for Similarity of the triangle • AAA (Angle-Angle-Angle) • AA (Angle-Angle) • SSS (Side-Side-Side) • SAS (Side-Angle-Side) AAA (Angle-Angle-Angle) The Angle-Angle-Angle (AAA) criterion for the similarity of triangles states that “If in two triangles, corresponding angles are equal, then their corresponding sides are in the same ratio (or proportion) and hence the two triangles are similar”. AA (Angle-Angle) The AA criterion states that "if two angles of a triangle are respectively equal to the two angles of another triangle, then the two triangles are similar". This criterion is included in the AAA criteria itself. SSS (Side-Side-Side) The Side-Side-Side (SSS) criterion for the similarity of two triangles states that “If in two triangles, sides of one triangle are proportional to (i.e., in the same ratio of ) the sides of the other triangle, then their corresponding angles are equal and hence the two triangles are similar”. SAS (Side-Angle-Side) The Side-Angle-Side (SAS) criterion for the similarity of two triangles states that “If one angle of a triangle is equal to one angle of the other triangle and the sides including these angles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar”.
# elementary results about multiplicative functions and convolution One of the most important elementary results about multiplicative functions and convolution (http://planetmath.org/DirichletConvolution) is: ###### Theorem. If $f$, $g$, and $h$ are arithmetic functions with $f*g=h$ and at least two of them are multiplicative, then all of them are multiplicative. The above theorem will be proven in two separate parts. ###### Lemma 1. If $f$ and $g$ are multiplicative, then so is $f*g$. ###### Proof. Note that $\displaystyle(f*g)(1)=f(1)g(1)=1\cdot 1=1$ since $f$ and $g$ are multiplicative. Let $a,b\in\mathbb{N}$ with $\gcd(a,b)=1$. Then any divisor $d$ of $ab$ can be uniquely factored as $d=d_{1}d_{2}$, where $d_{1}$ divides $a$ and $d_{2}$ divides $b$. When a divisor $d$ of $ab$ is factored in this manner, the fact that $\gcd(a,b)=1$ implies that $\gcd(d_{1},d_{2})=1$ and $\displaystyle\gcd\left(\frac{a}{d_{1}},\frac{b}{d_{2}}\right)=1$. Thus, $(f*g)(ab)$ $\displaystyle=\sum_{d|ab}f(d)g\left(\frac{ab}{d}\right)$ $\displaystyle=\sum_{\begin{subarray}{c}d_{1}|a\\ d_{2}|b\end{subarray}}f(d_{1}d_{2})g\left(\frac{ab}{d_{1}d_{2}}\right)$ $\displaystyle=\sum_{\begin{subarray}{c}d_{1}|a\\ d_{2}|b\end{subarray}}f(d_{1})f(d_{2})g\left(\frac{a}{d_{1}}\right)g\left(% \frac{b}{d_{2}}\right)$ $\displaystyle=\left(\sum_{d_{1}|a}f(d_{1})g\left(\frac{a}{d_{1}}\right)\right)% \left(\sum_{d_{2}|b}f(d_{2})g\left(\frac{b}{d_{2}}\right)\right)$ $\displaystyle=(f*g)(a)(f*g)(b)$. ###### Lemma 2. If $f$ is an arithmetic function and $g$ and $h$ are multiplicative functions with $f*g=h$, then $f$ is multiplicative. ###### Proof. Let $a,b\in\mathbb{N}$ with $\gcd(a,b)=1$. Induction will be used on $ab$ to establish that $f(ab)=f(a)f(b)$. If $ab=1$, then $a=b=1$. Note that $f(1)=f(1)\cdot 1=f(1)g(1)=(f*g)(1)=h(1)=1$. Thus, $f(ab)=f(1)=1=1\cdot 1=f(a)f(b)$. Now let $ab$ be an arbitrary natural number. The induction hypothesis yields that, if $d_{1}$ divides $a$, $d_{2}$ divides $b$, and $d_{1}d_{2}, then $f(d_{1}d_{2})=f(d_{1})f(d_{2})$. Thus, $\begin{array}[]{ll}h(a)h(b)&=h(ab)\\ \\ &=(f*g)(ab)\\ \\ &\displaystyle=\sum_{d|ab}f(d)g\left(\frac{ab}{d}\right)\\ \\ &\displaystyle=f(ab)g(1)+\sum_{\begin{subarray}{c}d|ab\\ d It follows that $f(ab)=f(a)f(b)$. ∎ The theorem follows from these two lemmas and the fact that convolution is commutative. The theorem has an obvious corollary. ###### Corollary. If $f$ is multiplicative, then so is its convolution inverse. ###### Proof. Let $f$ be multiplicative. Since $f(1)\neq 0$, $f$ has a convolution inverse $f^{-1}$. (See convolution inverses for arithmetic functions for more details.) Since $f*f^{-1}=\varepsilon$, where $\varepsilon$ denotes the convolution identity function, and both $f$ and $\varepsilon$ are multiplicative, the theorem yields that $f^{-1}$ is multiplicative. ∎ Title elementary results about multiplicative functions and convolution ElementaryResultsAboutMultiplicativeFunctionsAndConvolution 2013-03-22 16:07:37 2013-03-22 16:07:37 Wkbj79 (1863) Wkbj79 (1863) 16 Wkbj79 (1863) Theorem msc 11A25 ConvolutionInversesForArithmeticFunctions
# The water jug puzzle Yossi Elran tells us about the water jug puzzle Here is another well-known, medieval problem, also known as the ‘water pouring puzzle’. You have an 8 litre jug full of water and two smaller jugs, one that contains 5 litres and the other 3 litres. None of the jugs have markings on them, nor do you have any additional measuring device.You have to divide the 8 litres of water equally between your two best friends, so that each gets 4 litres of water. How can you do this? ## The water jug puzzle – solution • First, water is poured from the 8 litre jug into the 5 litre jug, leaving 3 litres of water in the original 8 litre jug. • Next, water is poured from the 5 litre jug into the 3 litre jug, so we now have 3 litres of water in the 8 litre jug, 2 litres of water in the 5 litre jug and 3 litres of water in the 3 litre jug. • The 3 litre jug is emptied into the 8 litre jug, so the 8 litre jug now contains 6 litres of water. • The 2 litres of water in the 5 litre jug are now poured into the empty 3 litre jug. • Water is poured from the 8 litre jug (which at this stage contains 6 litres) into the empty 5 litre jug. We now have 5 litres of water in the 5 litre jug, 2 litres of water in the 3 litre jug and 1 litre of water in the 8 litre jug. • Water is poured from the 5 litre jug to fill the 3 litre jug which already contains at this stage 2 litres of water. • We are left with 4 litres of water in the 5 litre jug which is given to one friend, and 3 litres of water in the 3 litre jug that is poured back into the 8 litre jug that already contains 1 litre of water. This gives 4 litres of water which are given to the second friend. The whole scenario can be summarised using numbers in brackets to denote the litres of water at each stage in each of the 8 litre, 5 litre and 3 litre jugs, respectively: [[8,0,0] rightarrow [3,5,0] rightarrow [3,2,3] rightarrow [6,2,0] rightarrow [6,0,2] rightarrow [1,5,2] rightarrow [1,4,3] rightarrow [4,4,0]] This diagram is known as a state diagram ## Discussion The water jug problem can be solved with just two jugs – one that can hold 5 litres of water and the other that can hold 3 litres of water, if there is also an unlimited supply of water from a tap and a sink.

# Data Collection Mean, Mode, Median, & Range Mathematical Terms Related to a Group of Numbers Data Collection Mean, Mode, Median, & Range Standard Deviation Mean = the average Consider your measurements as a set of numbers. Add together all the numbers in your set of measurements. Divide by the total number of values in the set Ages of cars in a parking lot: 20 years +10 years +10 years +1 year+15 years +10 years= 66 years/6 cars = 11years (answer is a counted numbers for sig figs are not an issue) Note: the mean can be misleading (one very high value and one very low) Median The number in the middle Put numbers in order from lowest to highest and find the number that is exactly in the middle 20, 15, 10, 10, 10, 1 Since there is an even number of values the median is 10 years (average of the 2 middle values) Or to determine the Median: 20 years, 15 years, 13 years, 11 years, 7 years, 5 years, 3 years With an odd number of values the median is the number in the middle or 11 years Mode Number in data set that occurs most often 20, 15, 10, 10, 10, 1 Sometimes there will not be a mode 20, 17, 15, 8, 3 Record answer as none or no mode NOT 0 Sometimes there will be more than one mode 20, 15, 15, 10, 10, 10, 1 Range The difference between the lowest and highest numbers 20, 15, 10, 10, 1 20-1 = 19 years The range tells you how spread out the data points are. Example: The mean of four numbers is 50.5 101 99 What is the median? What is the mode? 1 1 Measured Values When making a set of repetitive measurements, the standard deviation (S.D.) can be determined to indicate how much the samples differ from the mean Indicates also how spread out the values of the samples are Standard Deviation The smaller the standard deviation, the higher the quality of the measuring instrument and your technique Also indicates that the data points are also fairly close together with a small value for the range. Indicates that you did a good job of precision w/your measurements. A high or large standard deviation Indicates that the values or measurements are not similar There is a high value for the range Indicates a low level of precision (you didnt make measurements that were close to the same) The standard deviation will be 0 if all the values or measurements are the same. Formula for Standard Deviation = range N = (highest value lowest value) N N = number of measured values As N gets larger or the more samples (measurements, scores, etc.), the reliability of this approximation increases 22.5 mL, 18.3 mL, 20.0 mL, 10.6 mL The Standard Deviation would be: range = N = (highest value lowest value) N Range = 22.5 10.6g = 11.0 mL N=4 11.0g 4 = 5.95 mL = 6.0 mL S.D. = 17.9 6.0 mL (expressed to the same level of precision as the mean) Example The results of several masses of an object weighed by 5 different students on a multibeam balance 11.36g, 11.37g, 11.40g, 11.38g & 11.39g Average = 56.90g 5 = 11.38g SO: 11.36g, 11.37 g, 11.40 g, 11.38 g & 11.39g The Standard Deviation would be: range = N = (highest value lowest value) N Range = 11.40g 11.36g = 0.04g N=5 0.04g 5 = 0.0178 g = 0.02 g The Standard Deviation from the mean is: Mean = 11.38 g SD = 0.02 g Expressed as 11.38g 0.02 This tells us that the measurements were within two hundredths of the mean either less than the mean or greater than the mean. ~Review~ Mean average Mode which one occurs most often Median number in the middle Range difference between the highest and lowest values Standard Deviation The standard deviation of a set of data measures how spread out the data set is. In other words, it tells you whether all the data items bunch around close to the mean or is they are all over the place. Graphical Analysis The graphs show three normal distributions with the same mean, but the taller graph is less spread out. Therefore, the data represented by the taller graph has a smaller standard deviation. ## Recently Viewed Presentations • Three Approaches to Art: The following theories present different viewpoints from which we can consider works of art.

# How do you estimate 5 1/3-3 5/6? Apr 4, 2017 The estimate is $1$, which is the result of $5 - 4 = 1$ We can also see the actual value will be greater than one $\left(> 1\right)$ since $5 \frac{1}{3} > 5 \mathmr{and} 3 \frac{5}{6} < 4$ #### Explanation: Given: $5 \frac{1}{3} - 3 \frac{5}{6}$ To estimate this expression we round off each term: $5 \frac{1}{3} i s c l o s e \to$5 $3 \frac{5}{6} i s c l o s e \to$4 Then subtracting: $5 - 4 = 1$ Actual value is: $5 \frac{1}{3} - 3 \frac{5}{6} = \frac{16}{3} - \frac{23}{6} = \frac{32}{6} - \frac{23}{6} = \frac{9}{6} = 1 \frac{3}{6} = 1 \frac{1}{2}$
# How do you write the equation of a line through (0,3) and (-2,5)? Nov 16, 2016 $y = - x + 3$ #### Explanation: The equation of a line in $\textcolor{b l u e}{\text{slope-intercept form}}$ is. $\textcolor{red}{\overline{\underline{| \textcolor{w h i t e}{\frac{2}{2}} \textcolor{b l a c k}{y = m x + b} \textcolor{w h i t e}{\frac{2}{2}} |}}}$ where m represents the slope and b, the y-intercept. We require to find m and b. To find m use the $\textcolor{b l u e}{\text{gradient formula}}$ $\textcolor{red}{\overline{\underline{| \textcolor{w h i t e}{\frac{2}{2}} \textcolor{b l a c k}{m = \frac{{y}_{2} - {y}_{1}}{{x}_{2} - {x}_{1}}} \textcolor{w h i t e}{\frac{2}{2}} |}}}$ where $\left({x}_{1} , {y}_{1}\right) \text{ and " (x_2,y_2)" are 2 points on the line}$ The 2 points here are (0 ,3) and (-2 ,5) let $\left({x}_{1} , {y}_{1}\right) = \left(0 , 3\right) \text{ and } \left({x}_{2} , {y}_{2}\right) = \left(- 2 , 5\right)$ $\Rightarrow m = \frac{5 - 3}{- 2 - 0} = \frac{2}{- 2} = - 1$ One of the points here is (0 ,3). That is where the line crosses the y-axis. Hence the value of b is 3 $\Rightarrow y = - x + 3 \text{ is the equation}$

Tax Accountant at PwC Tutor Satisfaction Guarantee ## Questions ### Subject:Writing TutorMe Question: If you could travel to any country in the world, where would you go? Inactive Saida A. ### Subject:Basic Math TutorMe Question: Two angles in a triangle equal 120 degrees. What is the measure of the third angle? Inactive Saida A. A triangle is 180 degrees and there are three types of triangles -- an equilateral triangle which means all three angles equal the same, an isosceles triangle in which two angles are equal, and a scalene triangle in which all three angles have different measurements. Because we already know the sum of two angles, we simply need to subtract the total of those two angles from the 180 degrees. 180 - 120 = 60 degrees. The measure of the third angle is 60 degrees. ### Subject:Algebra TutorMe Question: 4x + 5 = 8 + 2x Inactive Saida A. In this problem, we need to determine the value of x. In order to do that, we must shift the components of our problem around to where all the values with an 'x' are on one side. 4x + 5 = 8 + 1x We will keep 4x where it is and bring the + 1x from the right side of the equation to the left. As we shift the + 1x, we need to be mindful of the signs associated with each number. As the 1x is a positive value, it will acquire a negative value as it moves to the opposite side of the equation. Hence becoming 4x + 5 - 1x = 8. Since our primary purpose is to get all the values with an 'x' to one side, we will shift the +5 to the right side of the equation. Again, we need to be mindful of the signs meaning +5 will become a -5 as it moves to the right side becoming: 4x - 1x = 8 - 5 We are able to subtract 4x - 1x because both values have an x. It would not be possible to perform this action if 1x was 1y. 4x - 1x = 3x and 8 - 5 = 3 Now our equation is 3x = 3. We still need to determine the value of x. In order to do so, we must separate 3x. When there is no sign between two numbers, it means that we are multiplying the two values and the opposite of that operation is division. As we take the 3 from 3x to the other side of the equation, we will divide. x = 3/3 x = 1 The value of x = 1. ## Contact tutor Send a message explaining your needs and Saida will reply soon.

In this post, you will find the NCERT Solutions for Chapter 8 Quadrilaterals Ex 8.2. ## NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 8 Quadrilaterals Ex 8.2 Ex 8.2 Class 9 Maths Question 1. ABCD is a quadrilateral in which P, Q, R and S are mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA (see figure). AC is a diagonal. Show that (i) SR || AC and SR = ½ AC (ii) PQ = SR (iii) PQRS is a parallelogram. Solution: (i) In ∆ACD, we have S is the mid-point of AD and R is the mid-point of CD. SR = ½ AC and SR || AC         ….…(1)               [By mid-point theorem] (ii) In ∆ABC, P is the mid-point of AB and Q is the mid-point of BC. PQ = ½ AC and PQ || AC        ….…(2)              [By mid-point theorem] From (1) and (2), we get PQ = SR and PQ || SR PQ = SR and PQ || SR               [Proved in (ii)] PQRS is a parallelogram. Ex 8.2 Class 9 Maths Question 2. ABCD is a rhombus and P, Q, R and S are the mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA, respectively. Show that the quadrilateral PQRS is a rectangle. Solution. Given: ABCD is a rhombus and P, Q, R and S are the mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD, and DA, respectively. To prove: Quadrilateral PQRS is a rectangle. Proof: By mid-point theorem. In ΔADC, we have S and R are the mid-points of AD and CD, respectively. SR || AC and SR = ½ AC                        …………..(i) In ΔABC, we have P and Q are the mid-points of AB and BC, respectively. PQ || AC and PQ = ½ AC                      ……..…..(ii) From eqs. (i) and (ii), we get PQ || SR and PQ = SR = ½ AC Since, a pair of opposite sides of a quadrilaterals PQRS is equal and parallel. So, PQRS is a parallelogram. We know that diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles. COD = EOF = 90° Now, in ABCD, R and Q are the mid-points of CD and BC, respectively. RQ || DB                           [by mid-point theorem] RE || OF Also, SR || AC                   [from eq. (i)] FR || OE So, OERF is a parallelogram. ERF = EOF = 90°       [Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal] Thus, PQRS is a parallelogram with R = 90° Hence, PQRS is a rectangle. Hence proved. Ex 8.2 Class 9 Maths Question 3. ABCD is a rectangle and P, Q, R and S are mid-points of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA, respectively. Show that the quadrilateral PQRS is a rhombus. Solution. Given, ABCD is a rectangle. In ΔASP and ΔBQP, AP = BP                (Given) AS = BQ                (Given) A = B               (Each 90°) ΔASP ΔBQP  (By SAS congruency rule) SP = PQ             (By CPCT)                ……(i) In ΔPBQ and ΔRCQ, PB = RC                 (Given) BQ = CQ                (Given) B = C                (Each 90°) ΔPBQ ΔRCQ  (By SAS congruency rule) PQ = RQ             (By CPCT)              ……(ii) Similarly, we can prove that RQ = SR and SR = SP        (iii) From eqs. (i), (ii) and (iii), we get SP = PQ = QR = RS. Therefore, PQRS is a rhombus. Ex 8.2 Class 9 Maths Question 4. ABCD is a trapezium in which AB || DC, BD is a diagonal and E is the mid-point of AD. A line is drawn through E parallel to AB intersecting BC at F (see figure). Show that F is the mid-point of BC. Solution. Given: ABCD is a trapezium in which AB || DC, BD is a diagonal and E is the mid-point of AD and a line is drawn through E parallel to AB intersecting BC at F such that EF || AB. To prove: F is the mid-point of BC. Proof: Let EF intersects BD at P. In ΔABD, we have EP || AB [ EF || AB] and E is the mid-point of AD. So, by the converse of mid-point theorem, P is the mid-point of BD. Similarly, in ΔBCD, we have PF || CD [ EF || AB and AB || CD] and P is the mid-point of BD. So, by the converse of mid-point theorem, F is the mid-point of BC. Ex 8.2 Class 9 Maths Question 5. In a parallelogram ABCD, E and F are the mid-points of sides AB and CD respectively (see figure). Show that the line segments AF and EC trisect the diagonal BD. Solution. Given: ABCD is a parallelogram, and E and F are the mid-points of sides AB and CD, respectively. To prove: Line segments AF and EC trisect the diagonal BD. Proof: Since ABCD is a parallelogram. AB || DC and AB = DC              [opposite sides of a parallelogram] AE || FC and ½ AB = ½ DC AE || FC and AE = FC            [ E and F are the mid-points of AB and CD] Since a pair of opposite sides of a quadrilaterals AECF is equal and parallel. So, AECF is a parallelogram. Then, AF || EC AP || EQ and FP || CQ     [Since opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel] In ΔBAP, E is the mid-point of AB and EQ || AP, so Q is the mid-point of BP. [by the converse of mid-point theorem] BQ = PQ                     ……(i) Again, in ΔDQC, F is the mid-point of DC and FP || CQ. So, P is the mid-point of DQ.         [by the converse of mid-point theorem] QP = DP                    ……(ii) From eqs. (i) and (ii), we get BQ = PQ = PD Hence, CE and AF trisect the diagonal BD. Hence proved. Ex 8.2 Class 9 Maths Question 6. ABC is a triangle right angled at C. A line through the mid-point M of hypotenuse AB and parallel to BC intersects AC at D. Show that (i) D is the mid-point of AC (ii) MD AC (iii) CM = MA = ½ AB Solution. Given, ABC is a right-angled triangle. C = 90° and M is the mid-point of AB. Also, DM || BC (i) In ΔABC, BC || MD and M is the mid-point of AB. D is the mid-point of AC.               (By converse of mid-point theorem) (ii) Since MD || BC and CD is transversal.              . But ACB = 90° MD AC (iii) Now, in ΔADM and ΔCDM, we have DM = MD                                             (Common) AD = CD                                                (D is the mid-point of AC) ΔCDM CM = AM                           …….(i) Also, M is the mid-point of AB.

Table of Perfect Squares Integer Perfect Square 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Integer Perfect Square 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Real Numbers and the Number Line A number a is a square root of a number b if a2 = b. Example: Together, the radical symbol and the radicand form a radical. Problem 1 What is the simplified form of each expression? Problem 2 Estimating a Square Root The square of an integer is called a perfect square. For example, 49 is a perfect square since When a radicand is not a perfect square, you can estimate the square root. Method 1: Estimate Problem 2 Estimating a Square Root Method 2: Estimate Classifying Real Numbers You can classify numbers using sets. A set is a well-defined collection of objects. Each object is called an element of the set. A subset of a set consists of elements from the larger set. You can list elements of a set within braces {}. The set of Real Numbers is the largest set of numbers that you will work with. It is divided into two subsets: the Rational Numbers and the Irrational Numbers. The Real Numbers Rational Numbers Irrational Numbers Real Numbers Rational Numbers The Rational Numbers have a subset called the integers. The integers are the set The Integers have a subset called the whole numbers. The Whole Numbers are the set Rational Numbers The Whole Numbers have a subset called the natural numbers. The Natural Numbers are the set Some square roots are rational numbers and some are irrational numbers. If a whole number is not a perfect square, then its square root is irrational. Classifying Real Numbers Problem 3 Classifying Real Numbers To which subsets of the real numbers does each number belong to? Inequality An inequality is a mathematical sentence that compares the values of two expressions using an inequality symbol. The inequality symbols are: Problem 4 Comparing Real Numbers What is an inequality that compares the following two numbers? Problem 5 Graphing and Ordering Real Numbers Order the following set of numbers from least to greatest. Note: To perform this task, you can write every number as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth, and then graph each of the numbers on a number line. Then, read the graph from left to right.
In how many ways can 6 persons be arranged in Question: In how many ways can 6 persons be arranged in (i) a line, (ii) a circle? Solution: (i) Let choose 1 person from 6 by ${ }^{6} \mathrm{C}_{1}=6$ and arranged it in line Now choose another person from remaining 5 by ${ }^{5} C_{1}=5$ and arranged it in line Similarly, choose another person from remaining 4 by ${ }^{4} C_{1}=4$ and arranged it in line Similarly, choose another person from remaining 3 by ${ }^{3} C_{1}=3$ and arranged it in line Similarly, choose another person from remaining 2 by ${ }^{2} C_{1}=2$ and arranged it in line And choose another person from remaining 1 by ${ }^{1} C_{1}=1$ and arranged it in line So total number of ways is $6 !=720$ (ii) It is the same as above, by converting line arrangement into the circle but you need to remove some arrangement Let suppose 6 persons as $A, B, C, D, E, F$ you need to arrange this 6 persons into a circle. First, we arranged 6 persons in line(number of ways $=6 !$ ) NOTE: A, B, C, D , E, F and B, C, D, E, F, A consider as a different line, but when we arranged this 2 combination in circle then it becomes same, i.e. Let takes us an example we need to arrange $A, N, O, D, E$. We arrange it as shown. When we rotate first one, then $1^{\text {st }}$ and $2^{\text {nd }}$ became identical and so on that’s why all 5 are identical, and we count it as 1 Now come back to our questions So total number of arrangement is $(6-1) !=5 !=120$ NOTE: When you want to arrange n persons in circle then a total number of ways is  $n ! / n$, i.e. Total number of ways $=(n-1) !$

# BASIC ELEMENTS OF GEOMETRY ## Presentation on theme: "BASIC ELEMENTS OF GEOMETRY"— Presentation transcript: BASIC ELEMENTS OF GEOMETRY Think of geometry as a skyscraper. At its foundation are three basic terms: point, line and plane. These terms are used to define other geometric terms. All these terms are the steel beams of the skyscraper, built carefully upon one another and upon the foundation of the three basic terms. But no matter how firm the foundation, the skyscraper won’t stand unless its beams are carefully connected. In geometry, we connect geometric terms with relationships. Using your foldable, we will go over review the basic terms along with connecting relationships that will be needed for the material we will cover in Chapter 9: Represent Geometry with Algebra.

## Note on Angle between two lines • Note • Things to remember • Videos • Exercise • Quiz #### Angle between the lines y = m1 + c1 and y = m2 + c2 and y = m2x + c2 Let the equation of two lines AB and CD be y = m1x + c1 and y = m2x + c2 respectively. let the lines AB and CD make angles θ1 and θ2 respectively with the positive direction of X-axis. Then, tanθ1 = m1 and tanθ2 = m2. Let the lines AB and CD intersect each other at the point E. Let the angles between the lines AB and CD ∠CEA = Φ Then by plane geometry, θ1 = Φ + θ2 or,Φ =θ12 ∴ tanΦ = tan(θ1 2) = $$\frac {tan\theta_1 - tan\theta_2}{1 + tan\theta_1 tan\theta_2}$$ = $$\frac{m_1 - m_2}{1+tan\theta_1 tan\theta_2}$$ .........(i) Again, let ∠BAC = Ψ Then by place geometry ,Φ + Ψ = 1800 or, Ψ = 1800 - Φ or, tan Ψ = tan (180 - Φ) = -tan Φ = - $$\frac{m_1 - m_2}{1+m_1m_2}$$ ............(ii) Hence if angles between the lines y = m1x + c1 and y = m2x + c2 be the θ then, tanθ =± $$\frac{m_1 - m_2}{1+m_1m_2}$$ θ = tan-1(± $$\frac{m_1 - m_2}{1+m_1m_2}$$) Condition of Perpendicularity Two lines AB and CD will be perpendicular to each other if the angle between them θ = 90o. We have tanθ = ± $$\frac{m_1 - m_2}{1+m_1m_2}$$ or, tan900 = ± $$\frac{m_1 - m_2}{1+m_1m_2}$$ or, cot900 = ± $$\frac{1+m_1m_2}{m_1 - m_2}$$ or, 0 = $$\frac{1+m_1m_2}{m_1 - m_2}$$ or, 1 +m1m2 =0 or, m1m2 = -1 Two lines will be perpendicular to each other if m1m2 = -1 i.e. if product of the slopes = -1 . Condition of Parallelism Two lines AB and CD will be parallel to each other if the angle between them θ = 00. we have, tanθ = ± $$\frac{m_1 - m_2}{1+m_1m_2}$$ or, tan00 = ± $$\frac{m_1 - m_2}{1+m_1m_2}$$ or, 0 = $$\frac{m_1 - m_2}{1+m_1m_2}$$ or, m1 - m2 = 0 or, m1 = m2 ∴ Two lines will be parallel to each other if m1 = m2 i.e. if slopes are equal. #### Angle between the lines A1x + B1y + C1 = 0 and A2x + B2y +C2 = 0 Let equations of two straight lines AB and CD be A1x + B1y + C1 = 0 and A2x + B2y + C2 = 0 respectively. Then slope of AB = -$$\frac{A_1}{B_1}$$ Slope of CD = -$$\frac{A_2}{B_2}$$ Let the lines AB and CD make angles θ1 and θ2 with the positive direction of X-axis. Then, tanθ1 = -$$\frac{A_1}{B_1}$$ and tanθ2 = -$$\frac{A_2}{B_2}$$ Let ∠CEA = Φ. Then, θ1 = θ1 - θ2 or, Φ = θ1 - θ2 ∴ tan Φ = tan( θ1 - θ2) = $$\frac{tan\theta_1 - tan\theta_2}{1 + tan\theta_1 tan\theta_2}$$ = $$\frac{A_2 B_1 - A_1 B_2}{A_1 A_2 + B_1 B_2}$$ = -$$\frac{A_1 B_2 - A_2 B_1}{A_1 A_2 + B_1 B_2}$$ ......(i) Let ∠BEC = Ψ Then Ψ + Φ = 1800 or, Ψ = 1800 - Φ ∴ tan Ψ = tan(1800 - Φ) = -tanΦ = $$\frac{A_1 B_2 - A_2 B_1}{A_1 A_2 + B_1 B_2}$$ .........(ii) Hence if angles between the lines A1x + B1y + C1 = 0 and A2x + B2y + C2 = 0 is θ, then tanθ = ± $$\frac{A_1 B_2 - A_2 B_1}{A_1 A_2 + B_1 B_2}$$ or, θ = tan-1 (±$$\frac{A_1 B_2 - A_2 B_1}{A_1 A_2 + B_1 B_2}$$ ) Condition of Perpendicularity Two lines AB and CD will be perpendicular to each other if θ = 900 Then tan900 = ± $$\frac{A_1 B_2 - A_2 B_1}{A_1 A_2 + B_1 B_2}$$ or, ∞ = $$\frac{A_1 B_2 - A_2 B_1}{A_1 A_2 + B_1 B_2}$$ ∴ A1A2 + B1B2 = 0 Condition of Parallelism Two lines AB and CD will be parrallel to each other if θ = 00 Then, tan00 = ± $$\frac{A_1 B_2 - A_2 B_1}{A_1 A_2 + B_1 B_2}$$ or, 0 = $$\frac{A_1 B_2 - A_2 B_1}{A_1 A_2 + B_1 B_2}$$ or, A1B2 - A2B1 = 0 or, A1B2 = A2B1 ∴ $$\frac{A_1}{A_2}$$ = $$\frac{B_1}{B_2}$$ #### Equation of any line parallel to ax + by + c = 0 Equation of the given line is ax + by + c = 0 Slope of this line = -$$\frac{coefficient \;of \;x}{coefficient \;of \;y}$$ = -$$\frac{a}{b}$$ Slope of the line parallel to this line = -$$\frac{a}{b}$$ Now, equation of a line having slope -$$\frac{a}{b}$$ is given by y = mx + c or, y = -$$\frac{a}{b}$$x + c or, by = -ax + bc or, ax + by - bc = 0 or, ax + by + k = 0 where, k = -bc. Hence equation of any line parallel to ax + by + c = 0 is given by ax + by + k = 0 where k is an arbitrary constant. #### Equation of any line perpendicular to ax +by +c = 0 Equation of the given line is ax + by + c = 0 Slope of this line = -$$\frac{coefficient\;of\;x}{coefficient\;of\;y}$$ = -$$\frac{a}{b}$$ Slope of the line perpendicular to given line = $$\frac{b}{a}$$ Now equation of a line having slope $$\frac{b}{a}$$ is given by y = mx + c or, y = $$\frac{b}{a}$$x + c or, ay = bx + ac or, bx - ay + ac = 0 or, bx - ay +k = 0 where k = ac. Hence, equation of any line perpendicular to ax + by + c = 0 is given by bx - ay + k = 0 where k is an arbitrary constant. Angle between the lines y = m1 + c1 and y = m2 + c2 and y = m2x + c2 Condition of perpendicularity m1m2 = -1 Condition of Parallelism m1 = m2 Angle between the lines A1x + B1y + C1 = 0 and A2x + B2y +C2 = 0 Condition of perpendicularity A1A2 + B1B2 = 0 Condition of Parallelism A1B2 = A2B1 Equation of any line parallel to ax + by + c = 0 k = -bc Equation of any line perpendicular to ax +by +c = 0 k = ac . ### Very Short Questions Given: a1x + b1y + c1 = 0..............................(1) a2x + b2y + c2 = 0..............................(2) Slope of eqn (1), m1 = - $$\frac {x-coefficient}{y-coefficient}$$ = -$$\frac {a_1}{b_1}$$ Slope of eqn (2), m2 = - $$\frac {x-coefficient}{y-coefficient}$$ = -$$\frac {a_2}{b_2}$$ when the lines are parallel, then: m1 = m2 or,-$$\frac {a_1}{b_1}$$ =-$$\frac {a_2}{b_2}$$ ∴ a1b2 = a2b1 Ans when the lines are perpendicular, then: m1× m2= - 1 or,-$$\frac {a_1}{b_1}$$×-$$\frac {a_2}{b_2}$$ = - 1 ∴ a1a2 = - b1b2Ans Here, 5x + 4y - 10 = 0............................(1) 15x + 12y - 7 = 0.........................(2) Slope of eqn (1), m1 = - $$\frac {x-coefficient}{y-coefficient}$$ = -$$\frac 54$$ Slope of eqn (2), m2 = - $$\frac {x-coefficient}{y-coefficient}$$ = -$$\frac {15}{12}$$ = -$$\frac 54$$ m1 = m2 = - $$\frac 54$$ ∴ The given two lines are parallel to each other.

In Maths, geometry is the most crucial topic, where we learn about the shapes of objects. To draw these shapes, there are different types of tools with different names used while solving problems based on geometry. We come across a number of shapes in our day to day life. You are already aware of a couple of them such as triangles, squares, hexagons, circles, parallelograms and so on. Different figures have characteristic properties such as length, breadth, diameter, etc. which set them apart from one another and are parameters to produce the figures on paper. Practical geometry or Euclidean geometry is the most pragmatic branch of geometry that deals with the construction of different geometrical figures using geometric instruments such as rulers, compasses and protractors. In this article, we are going to discuss important Maths tools which are used in Geometry for the construction of different shapes with a complete explanation. ## Geometric Tools and Their Uses The early geometers studied figures such as points, lines and angles which required the use of rulers and compasses only. With the advent of more geometric designs, other geometric tools were invented. Some of the most commonly used geometric tools are: Now, let us discuss the different Maths tools with their description and uses in detail. ## Geometric Tool – Ruler Also known as the straightedge, a ruler is used to construct straight lines and measure the lengths of a line segment. A ruler is also known as the line gauge, is a mathematical tool used in Geometry as well as in many Engineering applications.  It is a straight edge initially used only for drawing straight lines. It can also be used to measure the distance of the object. However, for our convenience, it is graduated into centimetres and millimetres on one side and into inches on the other side. It is used to measure the lengths in both the metric units as well as in customary units. The interval or the marks mentioned in the ruler is called the “Hash Marks”. How to Measure Objects Using a Ruler? If we want to measure the length of the object using a ruler, we need to place the zero hash mark of the ruler on the one end of the object. Now, align the object along the edge of the ruler. Read the measurement on the hash mark of the ruler, in which the other side of the object ends. The distance between the zero hash mark and the final reading hashmark on the ruler is called the length of the object. ## Geometric Tool – Compass It is a ‘V’-shaped tool that holds a pencil on one side of the ‘V’ and a pointer on the other side. The distance between the pencil and the pointer is adjustable. It is used to trace arcs, circles and angles. It is also used to mark equal lengths. Compass is one of the mathematical tools which is used to draw a geometrical figure, such as a circle. It is also used in the intersection of line segments and tools, which is used to intersect the line segment and helps to find the midpoint of the shapes. ## Geometric Tool – Protractor A protractor in Maths is used to measure angles. It is a semi-circular disc used to draw and measure different types of angles. It is graduated from 0 to 180 degrees and can be directly used to measure any angle within its range. It has two sets of markings, 0 to 180 degrees from left to right and vice versa. The inner and the outer reading of the protractor supplements each other. It means that if we add inner and outer reading, it adds up to 180 degrees. While measuring an angle using the protractor, we need to follow the steps given below: • If the angle to be measured at the left side of the protractor, we have to use the outer reading provided in the protractor. • If the angle to be measured at the right side of the protractor, we have to use the inner reading provided in the protractor. ## Geometric Tool – Divider It looks similar to the compasses with its ‘V’-shaped structure. However, it has pointers on both ends of the ‘V’. The distance between them is adjustable and it is used to measure and compare lengths. The term divider and compass are often used to mark the distance or mark divisions. The major difference between the compass and divider is that the compass is defined as a drafting instrument, in which one sharp point is positioned at centre and the other point has a pen or pencil to describe the circle or other functionality. Whereas the divider has two sharp points, in which one sharp point used as a centre, and the other sharp point is used for marking. ## Geometric Tool – Set-Squares Set squares are also one of the Maths tool, which is found commonly in geometry box. These are the triangular pieces of plastic with some portion between them removed. There are two kinds of set squares available in the market. One has an angle of 45 degrees and the other has 30-60 degrees. The 45 degree set square has an angle of 90 degrees, and also 30/60 degree set square has a right angle. The 45 degrees set square is used to draw vertical lines. With the help of set squares, we can draw parallel lines, perpendicular lines, make some standard angles, and so on. ## Frequently Asked Questions on Geometric Tools ### What are Geometric Tools in Maths? Geometric tools are those instruments that are used to construct different types of geometric shapes and figures. In Euclidean geometry, all the shapes, lines, and angles are drawn using geometric tools. ### What are the 2 Most Important Euclidean Tools Used in Geometric Construction? The two most important Euclidean tools used by early Greeks to construct different geometrical shapes and angles were a compass and a straightedge. Using these two tools, almost any shape can be constructed. Later, rulers and protectors were invented which made construction easier. ### What are the Most Common Instruments in a Geometry Box? The most common tools in a student geometric box are: • Compass • Ruler • Protractor • Divider • Set-squares ### What is the use of a Ruler in Geometry? In Geometry, a ruler is used to draw straight lines. Rulers are also used to measure the length of the object. ### Why do we use Protractor in Maths? A protractor is used to measure the angles. The protractor is graduated from 0 degree to 180 degrees, which helps to measure the angle value. It has two sets of markings from 0-180 degree from left to right as well as from right to left. The inner and outer angles will add up to 180 degrees. Quiz on Geometric tools #### 1 Comment 1. Soma Chattarzee Pls fo this
# How do you find the center and radius of the circle x^2+y^2+8x+4y+16=0? Sep 1, 2016 Center: color(green)(""(-4,-2)) Radius: $\textcolor{g r e e n}{2}$ #### Explanation: If a circular equation is written in the form: $\textcolor{w h i t e}{\text{XXX}} {\left(x - \textcolor{red}{a}\right)}^{2} + {\left(y - \textcolor{b l u e}{b}\right)}^{2} = {\textcolor{g r e e n}{r}}^{2}$ then it has a center at $\left(\textcolor{red}{a} , \textcolor{b l u e}{b}\right)$ and a radius of $\textcolor{g r e e n}{r}$ We will want to manipulate the given: ${x}^{2} + {y}^{2} + 8 x + 4 y + 16 = 0$ into this form. First separating the $x$ terms, the $y$ terms and the constant as $\textcolor{w h i t e}{\text{XXX}} \left(\textcolor{red}{{x}^{2} + 8 x}\right) + \left(\textcolor{b l u e}{{y}^{2} + 4 y}\right) = \textcolor{g r e e n}{- 16}$ Completing the square for each of the $x$ and $y$ sub-expressions: $\textcolor{w h i t e}{\text{XXX}} \left(\textcolor{red}{{x}^{2} + 8 x + 16}\right) + \left(\textcolor{b l u e}{{y}^{2} + 4 y + 4}\right) = \textcolor{g r e e n}{- 16} \textcolor{red}{+ 16} \textcolor{b l u e}{+ 4}$ color(white)("XXX")(color(red)(x+4))^2+(color(blue)(y+2))^2= color(green)(4 $\textcolor{w h i t e}{\text{XXX}} {\left(x - \left(\textcolor{red}{- 4}\right)\right)}^{2} + {\left(y - \left(\textcolor{b l u e}{- 2}\right)\right)}^{2} = {\textcolor{g r e e n}{2}}^{2}$ with center at $\left(\textcolor{red}{- 4} , \textcolor{b l u e}{- 2}\right)$ and radius $\textcolor{g r e e n}{2}$ A graph of the original equation helps verify this result: graph{x^2+y^2+8x+4y+16=0 [-9.184, 1.916, -4.89, 0.66]}
# General Equation of the Circle – Formula and Examples ## What is a Circle ? A circle is the locus of a point which moves in a plane in such way that its distance from a fixed point(in the same given plane) remains constant. The fixed point is called center of circle and the constant distance is called radius of the circle. The general equation of the circle and standard form of circle are given below with examples. ## General Equation of the Circle : The general equation of the circle is $$x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c$$ = 0. where g, f, c are constants and center is (-g, -f) and radius r = $$\sqrt{g^2 + f^2 – c}$$. (i)  If $${g^2 + f^2 – c}$$ > 0, then r is real and positive and the circle is a real circle. (ii) If $${g^2 + f^2 – c}$$ = 0, then radius r = 0 and circle is a point circle. (iii) If $${g^2 + f^2 – c}$$ < 0, then r is imaginary and circle is also an imaginary circle with real center. (iv) If $$x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c$$ = 0, has three constants and to get the equation of the circle at least three conditions should be known $$\implies$$ A unique circle passes through three non-collinear points. Example : Find the center and radius of the circle $$3x^2 + 3y^2 – 8x -10y + 3$$ = 0. Solution : We rewrite the equation as, dividing whole equation by 3 $$x^2 + y^2 – {8\over 3}x – {10\over 3}y + 1$$ = 0 Comparing it with general equation of the circle $$x^2 + y^2 + 2gx + 2fy + c$$ = 0, we get g = -$$4\over 3$$, f = -$$5\over 3$$, c = 1. Hence center of the circle is ($$4\over 3$$, $$5\over 3$$) and radius is $$\sqrt{{16\over 9}+{25\over 9}-1}$$ = $$\sqrt{32\over 9}$$. ## General Second Degree Equation : The general second degree in x and y, $$ax^2 + by^2 + 2hxy + 2gx + 2fy + c$$ = 0 represents a circle if : (i) coefficient of $$x^2$$ = coefficient of $$y^2$$ or a = b $$\ne$$ 0. (ii) coefficient of xy = 0 or h = 0. (iii) $${g^2 + f^2 – c}$$ $$\ge$$ 0(for a real circle). ## Standard Form of Circle : If (h, k) is the center and r is the radius of the circle then standard form of circle equation is $$(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2$$ = $$r^2$$. Note : (i)  If centre is origin (0,0) and radius is ‘r’ then the equation of circle is $$x^2$$ + $$y^2$$ = $$r^2$$ (ii)  If radius of circle is zero then the equation of circle is $$(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2$$ = 0. Such a circle is called zero circle or point circle. (iii)  When circle touches x-axis then equation of the circle is $$(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2$$ = $$k^2$$ (iv)  When circle touches y-axis then the equation of circle is $$(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2$$ = $$h^2$$ (v)  When circle touches both the axes(x-axis and y-axis) then equation of circle is $$(x-h)^2 + (y-h)^2$$ = $$h^2$$ (vi)  When circle passes through the origin and centre of the circle is (h,k) then radius $$\sqrt{h^2 + k^2}$$ = r and intercept cut on x-axis is 2h and intercept cut on y-axis is 2k and equation of circle is $$(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2$$ = $$h^2 + k^2$$ or $$x^2$$ + $$y^2$$ – 2hx – 2ky = 0 Example : Find the center and radius of the circle $$x^2 + y^2$$ = 9. Solution : Comparing it with standard form of circle equation is $$(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2$$ = $$r^2$$. we get h = 0, k = 0, r = 3. Hence center of the circle is (0, 0).
# Continuous Functions A function is continuous when its graph is a single unbroken curve ... ... that you could draw without lifting your pen from the paper. That is not a formal definition, but it helps you understand the idea. Here is a continuous function: ## Examples So what is not continuous (also called discontinuous) ? Look out for holes, jumps or vertical asymptotes (where the function heads up/down towards infinity). Not Continuous (hole) Not Continuous (jump) Not Continuous (vertical asymptote) Try these different functions so you get the idea: (Use slider to zoom, drag graph to reposition, click graph to re-center.) ## Domain A function has a Domain. In its simplest form the domain is all the values that go into a function. We may be able to choose a domain that makes the function continuous ### Example: 1/(x−1) At x=1 we have: 1/(1−1) = 1/0 = undefined So there is a "discontinuity" at x=1 f(x) = 1/(x−1) So f(x) = 1/(x−1) over all Real Numbers is NOT continuous Let's change the domain to x>1 g(x) = 1/(x−1) for x>1 So g(x) IS continuous In other words g(x) does not include the value x=1, so it is continuous. When a function is continuous within its Domain, it is a continuous function. ## More Formally ! We can define continuous using Limits (it helps to read that page first): A function f is continuous when, for every value c in its Domain: f(c) is defined, and limx→cf(x) = f(c) "the limit of f(x) as x approaches c equals f(c)" The limit says: "as x gets closer and closer to c then f(x) gets closer and closer to f(c)" And we have to check from both directions: as x approaches c (from left) then f(x) approaches f(c) AND as x approaches c (from right) then f(x) approaches f(c) If we get different values from left and right (a "jump"), then the limit does not exist! And remember this has to be true for every value c in the domain. ## How to Use: Make sure that, for all x values: • f(x) is defined • and the limit at x equals f(x) Here are some examples: ### Example: f(x) = (x2−1)/(x−1) for all Real Numbers The function is undefined when x=1: (x2−1)/(x−1) = (12−1)/(1−1) = 0/0 So it is not a continuous function Let us change the domain: ### Example: g(x) = (x2−1)/(x−1) over the interval x<1 Almost the same function, but now it is over an interval that does not include x=1. So now it is a continuous function (does not include the "hole") It looks like this: It is defined at x=1, because h(1)=2 (no "hole") But at x=1 you can't say what the limit is, because there are two competing answers: • "2" from the left, and • "1" from the right so in fact the limit does not exist at x=1 (there is a "jump") And so the function is not continuous. But: ### Example: How about the piecewise function absolute value: At x=0 it has a very pointy change! But it is still defined at x=0, because f(0)=0 (so no "hole"), And the limit as you approach x=0 (from either side) is also 0 (so no "jump"), So it is in fact continuous. (But it is not differentiable at x=0)

Now if we have to solve the percent of any number that number is divided by the whole with multiply by 100 therefore the percentage is also known as the part per hundred or hundred part of one. Complete step-by-step solution: Step 1: First we write the given data in terms of the equation. $75\% \,of\,m = k\% \,of\,25$ $\Rightarrow 75\% \, = \dfrac{{75}}{{100}},k\% \, = \dfrac{k}{{100}}$ Now put the values $75\% \,\, \times m = k\% \, \times \,25$ $\Rightarrow \dfrac{{75}}{{100}}\,\, \times m = \dfrac{k}{{100}}\,\, \times \,25$ Step 2: Simplify this expression by using the cross multiplication and solve it. We got the desired ratio so Now $\dfrac{{75}}{{100}}\,\, \times m = \dfrac{k}{{100}}\,\, \times \,25$ $\Rightarrow \dfrac{{75m}}{{100}}\,\, = \dfrac{{\,25k}}{{100}}\,\,$ $\Rightarrow 75m = 25k$ Now perform the cross multiplication so that we can take it as desired ratio and get result after simplifying the ratio so $\dfrac{m}{k} = \dfrac{{25}}{{75}}$ $\Rightarrow \dfrac{m}{k} = \dfrac{1}{3}$ Hence we got the ratio of the m/k in terms of the rational numbers and it is matched with one of the given options provided by the question and the correct answer of the question is an option (b) satisfied. Note: The good thing about percentage is that it can be solved easily. We have to just equal the percentage sign to the hundred part of one since the percentage is equal to the hundred part of one. And also we mentioned that the word percent can be divided like per plus cent or per hundred which is the same as we mentioned above.

# Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix On this post we explain what the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors of a matrix are. You will also find examples of how to compute the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors of a matrix, and finally, you have problems with solutions solved step by step to practice. ## What are the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors of a matrix? Although the concept of eigenvalue and eigenvector is a bit difficult to understand, their definition is as follows: The eigenvectors are the non-zero vectors of a linear map that, when the linear transformation is applied to them, result in a scalar multiple of them (they do not change direction). This scalar is the eigenvalue. Where is the matrix of the linear mapping, is the eigenvector and the eigenvalue. An eigenvalue is also known as a characteristic value, and an eigenvalue as a characteristic vector. ## How to find the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors of a matrix To find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix, apply the following procedure: 1. Calculate the characteristic polynomial by taking the following determinant: 2. Find the roots of the characteristic polynomial obtained in step 1. These roots are the eigenvalues of the matrix. 3. Calculate the eigenvector associated with each eigenvalue by solving the following system of equations for each eigenvalue: Remember that is the identity matrix. This is the method to find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix, but here we also give you some tricks: 😉 Tricks: we can take advantage of the properties of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors to calculate them more easily: The trace of the matrix (sum of the elements on the main diagonal) is equal to the sum of all the eigenvalues. The product of all the eigenvalues is equal to the determinant of the matrix. If there is any linear combination between rows or columns, at least one eigenvalue of the matrix is 0. Having seen the theory of eigenvalues and eigenvectors, let’s see an example of how to compute them. ## Example of calculating the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix • Find the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors of the following 2×2 matrix: First, we have to find the characteristic polynomial of the matrix. And, for this, we must compute the following determinant: Now we calculate the roots of the characteristic polynomial. So we set the polynomial obtained equal to 0 and solve the equation: The solutions of the equation are the eigenvalues of the matrix. Once we know the eigenvalues of the matrix, we proceed to calculate its eigenvectors. To do this, we must solve the following system of equations for each eigenvalue: First we calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 1: From these equations we obtain the following subspace: Note that subspaces of eigenvectors are also called eigenspaces. Now we must find a base of this eigenspace, so we give, for example, the value 1 to the variable x and we obtain the following eigenvector: Once we have found the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 1, we repeat the process to calculate the eigenvector of the eigenvalue 2: In this case, only the first component of the vector must be 0, so we could give any value to variable y. But it is better to put a 1: In conclusion, the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors of the matrix are: ## Practice problems on eigenvalues and eigenvectors ### Problem 1 Calculate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the following square matrix of order 2: First we calculate the determinant of the matrix minus λ on its main diagonal: Now we calculate the roots of the characteristic polynomial: We find the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 2: And then we calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 5: Thus, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrix A are: ### Problem 2 Determine the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the following 2×2 square matrix: First we subtract λ from the entries on the main diagonal of the matrix and compute the determinant of the resulting matrix in order to obtain the characteristic equation: Now we find the roots of the characteristic polynomial: We calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue -1: And then we calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 3: Therefore, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrix A are: ### Problem 3 Compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the following square matrix of order 3: First of all, we have to solve the determinant of matrix A minus the identity matrix multiplied by lambda in order to obtain the characteristic polynomial: In this case, the last column of the determinant has two zeros, so we will evaluate the 3×3 determinant by cofactors through that column: Now we have to calculate the roots of the characteristic polynomial. It is better not to multiply the parentheses since then we would obtain a third degree polynomial, instead, if the two factors are solved separately it is easier to get the eigenvalues: Now we compute the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 2: We calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue -1: And we calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 3: So the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrix A are: ### Problem 4 Compute the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors of the following 3×3 square matrix: First we solve the determinant of the matrix minus λ on its main diagonal to obtain the characteristic polynomial: We factor out the characteristic polynomial and solve for λ each equation: We calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 0: We calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 2: We calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 5: Therefore, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrix A are: ### Problem 5 Find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the following 4×4 matrix: First, we solve the determinant of the matrix minus λ on its main diagonal to obtain the characteristic polynomial: In this case, the last column of the determinant are all zeros except one element, so we will compute the determinant using the cofactor method through that column: Now we must calculate the roots of the characteristic polynomial. It is better not to multiply the parentheses since then we would obtain a fourth degree polynomial, instead, if the two factors are solved separately it is easier to calculate the eigenvalues: We calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 0: We calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue -1: We calculate the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue 3: The algebraic multiplicity of eigenvalue 3 is 2 (it is repeated twice). So we must find another eigenvector that satisfies the same equations: Therefore, the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrix A are:
# Assignment 1: Problems and Explorations with Graphing Functions and Relations Graph the equation: where |x| is the absolute value of x. Variations? Exploration 1: Here the graph shows the x and y intercepts to be - 1 and + 1. Recall that the graph of a circle with radius 1 is x^2 + y^2 = 1. The variation of this graph is the additive -y|x|. So the next question is which variables can or should we manipulate to show us variations within this graph? Through graphical manipulations we should be able to understand exactly how this equation behaves and why. Exploration 2: By simply changing our (-y|x|) to be positive the entire graph shifts 180 degrees. Does it rotate clockwise or counterclockwise? Are we able to see the rotation step by step or is it only one move with nothing in between? Notice that our x and y intercepts remained the same regardless of the sign of y. Let's take a step away from this expression containing the absolute value of x and look at two graphs below. Exploration 3: Do you see the shape of an upright heart within the two ellipses? Now look for all four heart shapes. Using what we know about absolute values we can see that the red and blue graph represent together part of the graph in Exploration 1. When the graphs from Exploration 1, 2, and 3 are combined all four graphs lay upon one another thus confirming that they are each variations of each other. Notice that the equations labeled black overpower the color of the other equations. We have confirmed through our graphical manipulations that the "heart shape" is formed by joining two ellipses. But why are the bottoms of the ellipses removed when the absolute value is put around the x? This leads us to our next exploration ...what happens when the absolute value is around the y variable? Exploration 4: By placing the absolute value around the y variable we see that the graph has turned 90 degrees or -90 degrees when x|y| is negative. Now looking back at Exploration 3 we see the two hearts aligned with the x-axis. So now to tie our four explorations together we see that... forms two ellipses. Our two ellipses above are equal to the ellipses in Exploration 3. Therefore, our final conclusion is by rearranging the absolute value in the graphs we can breaks apart the ellipses to form the "heart shaped" graphs. We can see the truth behind this statement through the graphs above, but what is the mathematical explanation? Let's take one more look at another exploration to see if it will tie all of the loose ends. Exploration 5: Finally, we see what makes the heart stretch. This stretch also works when the absolute value is around the y variable, which maintains the consistency of the graph manipulations. The mathematical explanation for this graph begins first with the x and y intercepts. In all of these explorations the intercepts never changed. No matter how the graph was stretched or where the absolute value is located the intercepts remained -1 and 1 on both the x and y axis. We also see that without the middle term, y|x|, our graph is just a circle with with radius 1. Adding the middle term, yx, we get an ellipse. And adding the absolute value we get the "heart" graph, which flips across the x-axis when the sign of the y variable changes. Using our knowledge of algebraic equations, we can see that for our equation with two squared variables and a middle term to equal one our middle term must always be negative. If the middle term were positive we would end up with an equation greater than 1. Therefore, the "heart" flips across the y-axis when the y variable is positive because we need a negative value of the middle term to maintain equality. Look at the points (1,1), (-1,1), (-1,-1), and (1,-1) in all five explorations. When plugged into our equations we see that the middle value is always negative. Finally, the "heart" stretches according to the value of the scalar multiplied to the middle term.
The area that wasn't subtracted (grey) is the area of the polygon. Area of the polygon = $$\dfrac{7 \times 5 \times 4.82}{2} = 84$$ sq. [48] If a convex quadrilateral has the consecutive sides a, b, c, d and the diagonals p, q, then its area K satisfies[34], From Bretschneider's formula it directly follows that the area of a quadrilateral satisfies.

These three points are in general not all the same point.[42]. Inclusive definitions are used throughout. Let vectors AC and BD form the diagonals from A to C and from B to D. The area of the quadrilateral is then. This divides the polygon into horizontal strips … The area can be also expressed in terms of bimedians as[15]. Some real-life examples of regular polygons are listed below. We often get questions about the area of parcels of land. 1 Answer. Area of a trapezoid. A non-planar quadrilateral is called a skew quadrilateral. 24. Alter the number of sides. In a convex quadrilateral all interior angles are less than 180°, and the two diagonals both lie inside the quadrilateral. [35]:p.119 This is a direct consequence of the fact that the area of a convex quadrilateral satisfies. The four maltitudes of a convex quadrilateral are the perpendiculars to a side—through the midpoint of the opposite side.[12]. The "side centroid" comes from considering the sides to have constant mass per unit length. A vertex is a point where two or more edges meet. Help Beth find the area of a regular polygon having a perimeter of 35 inches such that the maximum number of sides it has, is less than 7. 52–53. + A regular polygon is both equilateral and equiangular; it has total symmetry — equal sides and equal angles.. where there is equality if and only if the quadrilateral is cyclic.

In geometry, a polygon (/ ˈ p ɒ l ɪ ɡ ɒ n /) is a plane figure that is described by a finite number of straight line segments connected to form a closed polygonal chain or polygonal circuit.The solid plane region, the bounding circuit, or the two together, may be called a polygon.. The quadrilateral with given side lengths that has the maximum area is the cyclic quadrilateral. D The Area of a Polygon . The formulas of area and perimeter for different polygons are given below: Name of polygon: Area: Perimeter: Triangle: ½ x (base) x (height) a+b+c: Square: side 2: 4 (side) Rectangle: Length x Breadth: 2(length+breadth) Parallelogram : Base x Height: 2(Sum of pair of adjacent sides) Trapezoid: Area … In a cyclic quadrilateral, where A + C = 180°, it reduces to pq = ac + bd. ... handy you need to invert the diagram and use the curve y = x^2. p The … In two-dimensional Euclidean space, expressing vector AC as a free vector in Cartesian space equal to (x1,y1) and BD as (x2,y2), this can be rewritten as: In the following table it is listed if the diagonals in some of the most basic quadrilaterals bisect each other, if their diagonals are perpendicular, and if their diagonals have equal length. a polygon is a shape with three or more sides. K This is possible when using Euler's quadrilateral theorem in the above formulas. {\displaystyle m^{2}+n^{2}={\tfrac {1}{2}}(p^{2}+q^{2}). [44], In a general convex quadrilateral ABCD, there are no natural analogies to the circumcenter and orthocenter of a triangle. | In the last two formulas, no angle is allowed to be a right angle, since tan 90° is not defined. rhombus, square, and kite), this formula reduces to The Area of a Polygon . A quadrilateral is a polygon. The triangles are created by drawing the diagonals from one vertex to all the others. Exterior angle of a regular polygon having n sides = $$\dfrac{360^\circ}{n}$$, Interior angle of a regular polygon having n sides = $$180^\circ$$ - Exterior angle. q Polygons that have four sides and four angles are called quadrilaterals.

This is true in convex, concave and crossed quadrilaterals provided the area of the latter is defined to be the difference of the areas of the two triangles it is composed of. Try this area of a regular polygon calculator and get to know more about this concept. if the lengths of two diagonals and one bimedian are given. Now, from the above figure, we can create a formula for the area. Multiply one side by itself to find the area of a square. {\displaystyle \square ABCD} area ratio Sp/Sc Customer Voice. In a convex quadrilateral ABCD with sides a = AB, b = BC, c = CD, d = DA, and where the diagonals intersect at E, where e = AE, f = BE, g = CE, and h = DE.[28]. The "area centroid" of quadrilateral ABCD can be constructed in the following way. Hence that point is the Fermat point of a convex quadrilateral. | But, a regular pentagon has five sides of equal length and interior angle measuring 108° and an exterior angle of 72°. The line is remarkable by the fact that it contains the (area) centroid. {\displaystyle p^{2}+q^{2}=2(m^{2}+n^{2}).} [44], Another remarkable line in a convex non-parallelogram quadrilateral is the Newton line, which connects the midpoints of the diagonals, the segment connecting these points being bisected by the vertex centroid. Irregular polygons are polygons that do not have equal sides or equal angles. The formulae below give the area of a regular polygon. Here are a few activities for you to practice. [45], For any quadrilateral ABCD with points P and Q the intersections of AD and BC and AB and CD, respectively, the circles (PAB), (PCD), (QAD), and (QBC) pass through a common point M, called a Miquel point. Important Notes on Area of a Regular Polygon, Solved Examples on Area of a Regular Polygon, Interactive Questions on Area of a Regular Polygon, Area of a regular polygon = $$\dfrac{n \times s \times a}{2}$$, Area of a regular polygon = $$\dfrac{P \times a}{2}$$.

Education.com # Working with Integers Practice Questions (not rated) ## Introduction The Tips for Working with Integers section that follows gives you some simple rules to follow as you solve problems with integers. Refer to them each time you do a problem until you don't need to look at them. That's when you can consider them yours. You will also want to review the rules for Order of Operations with numerical expressions. You can use a memory device called a mnemonic to help you remember a set of instructions. Try remembering the word PEMDAS. This nonsense word helps you remember to: P           do operations inside Parentheses E           evaluate terms with Exponents M D     do Multiplication and Division in order from left to right A S      Add and Subtract terms in order from left to right ## Tips for Working with Integers Signed numbers the same? Find the SUM and use the same sign. Signed numbers different? Find the DIFFERENCE and use the sign of the larger number. (The larger number is the one whose value without a positive or negative sign is greatest.) Addition is commutative. That is, you can add numbers in any order and the result is the same. As an example, 3 + 5 = 5 + 3, or 2 + 1 = 1 + –2. ### Subtraction Change the operation sign to addition, change the sign of the number following the operation, then follow the rules for addition. ### Multiplication/Division Signs the same? Multiply or divide and give the result a positive sign. Signs different? Multiply or divide and give the result a negative sign. Multiplication is commutative. You can multiply terms in any order and the result will be the same. For example: (2 · 5 · 7) = (2 · 7 · 5) = (5 · 2 · 7) = (5 · 7 · 2) and so on. ## Practice Questions Evaluate the following expressions. 1. 27 + 5 2. 18 + 20 – 16 3. 15 – 7 4. 33 + 16 5. 8 + 4 – 12 6. 38 ÷ 2 + 9 7. 25 · 3 + 15 · 5 8. 5 · 9 · 2 9. 24 · 8 + 2 10. 2 · 3 · 7 11. 15 + 5 + 11 12.

Expert Solution The maximum value with six decimal is x=0.561096 . ### Explanation of Solution Given information: The curve is given as: f(x)=xcosx,0xπ . Formula used: Newton’s Method: We seek a solution of f(x)=0 , starting from an initial estimate x=x1 . For x=xn , compute the next approximation xn+1 by xn+1=xnf(xn)f'(xn) and so on. Absolute Maximum Value: The critical numbers of function f within the interval [a,b] . Substitute the values in function and the largest value obtained by critical number is the absolute maximum value. Calculation: Consider the curve , f(x)=xcosx,0xπ Now, f(x)=xcosxf'(x)=x(sinx)+cosx =xsinx+cosx (by product rule) Hence, we get the critical numbers from f'(x)=0 . In other words f'(x) is g(x) used to find out roots using Newton’s Method. Therefore, g(x)=xsinx+cosx and g'(x)={x[cosx]+sinx}sinx =xcosxsinxsinx=xcosx2sinx Now, let initial approximation be x1=0.8 For n=1 x2=x1g(x1)g'(x1) x2=x1x1sinx1+cosx1x1cosx12sinx1 x2=(0.8)(0.8)sin(0.8)+cos(0.8)(0.8)cos(0.8)2sin(0.8)x2=(0.8)0.573884872+0.6967067090.5573653671.434712182 x2=0.80.122821837(1.992077549)x2=0.8+(0.061655148)x2=0.861655148 The second approximation is x2=0.861655148 . Let x2=0.861655148 For n=2 x3=x2g(x2)g'(x2) x3=x2x2sinx2+cosx2x2cosx22sinx2 x3=(0.861655148){(0.861655148)sin(0.861655148)+cos(0.861655148)(0.861655148)cos(0.861655148)2sin(0.861655148)}x3=(0.861655148){0.653928535+0.6511822330.5610270171.51784281} x3=0.861655148{0.0027463022.078869827}x3=0.8616551480.001321055299x3=0.860334092 The third approximation is x3=0.860334092 . The function values at critical numbers and endpoints are:- f(x)=xcosx So, at end intervals f(0)=0cos(0)=0 ; and f(π)=πcos(π)=π(1)=π=3.141592654 At critical point x=0.860334092 f(0.860334092)=0.860334092cos(0.860334092)=0.860334092(0.652184242)=0.561096338 Therefore, the absolute maximum value of curve f(x)=xcosx,0xπ is x=0.561096 . ### Have a homework question?

# Perimeter of a Parallelogram – Formulas and Examples The perimeter of a parallelogram is defined as the sum of the lengths of all the sides of the parallelogram. The perimeter of the parallelogram is similar to the perimeter of the rectangle. Therefore, by adding the lengths of the parallelogram, we can easily find the perimeter of the parallelogram. It is also possible to find the perimeter of the parallelogram using the length of the base, the length of the height, and an internal angle. Here, we will learn aout two formulas that we can use to find the perimeter of a parallelogram. In addition, we will use these formulas to solve some problems. ##### GEOMETRY Relevant for Learning about the perimeter of a parallelogram with examples. See examples ##### GEOMETRY Relevant for Learning about the perimeter of a parallelogram with examples. See examples ## What is the formula to find the perimeter of a parallelogram? Let’s use “a” and “b” to represent the lengths of the sides of a parallelogram. We know that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal in length. Therefore, the formula to find the perimeter of a parallelogram is given by: Therefore, we find the perimeter using the formula . ### Perimeter of a parallelogram with base and height We can calculate the perimeter of a parallelogram with base and height by using a property of the parallelogram. Suppose that “b” is the base and “h” is the height of the parallelogram, then, according to the parallelogram property, the opposite sides are parallel and equal and the parallelogram is defined as twice the product of the base and the height multiplied by the cosine of the angle. Theregore, we have the following formula: where is the angle formed between the height and the lateral side of the parallelogram. ## Perimeter of a parallelogram – Examples with answers The formula for the perimeter of a parallelogram is applied to solve the following examples. Try to solve the examples yourself before looking at the solution to the problem. ### EXAMPLE 1 If a parallelogram has sides with a length of 8 m and 12 m, what is its perimeter? We have the following information: • Side 1, m • Side 2, m Therefore, we use the perimeter formula with these values: The perimeter is 40 m. ### EXAMPLE 2 We have a parallelogram with sides of length 15 m and 17 m. What is the perimeter? We recognize the following values: • Side 1, m • Side 2, m Therefore, we replace these values in the formula: The perimeter is 64 m. ### EXAMPLE 3 The perimeter of a parallelogram is 90 cm. If one side is 21 cm, how long is the other side? In this case, we start from the perimeter and want to find the length of the other side. Therefore, we recognize the following: • Perimeter, cm • Side 1, cm Thus, we use these values and solve for b: The length of the other side is 24 cm. ### EXAMPLE 4 A perimeter has a height of 10 m and a base with a length of 12 m. If the angle between the height and the lateral side is 60°, what is the perimeter? We can recognize the following information: • Height, m • Base, m • Angle, ° Therefore, we use the second formula with these values: The perimeter is 34 m. ### EXAMPLE 5 A perimeter has a height of 20 m and a base with a length of 15 m. If the angle between the height and the lateral side is 60°, what is the perimeter? We have the following: • Height, m • Base, m • Angle, ° Therefore, we substitute these values in the second formula: The perimeter is 50 m. ## Perimeter of a parallelogram – Practice problems Put into practice what you have learned about the perimeter of a parallelogram to solve the following problems.

Title College Algebra Tutorial 23B: Rational Inequalities Learning Objectives After completing this tutorial, you should be able to: Solve rational inequalities using a sign graph of factors. Solve rational inequalities using the test-point method. Introduction In this tutorial we will be looking at solving rational inequalities using two different methods.  The methods of solving rational inequalities are very similar to solving quadratic inequalities.  If you need a review on solving quadratic inequalities, feel free to go to Tutorial 23A: Quadratic Inequalities.  And yes, we will be dealing with fractions (yuck!) as we go through the rational inequalities.  I think we are ready to start. Tutorial Rational Inequalities A rational inequality is one that can be written in one of the following standard forms: or or or Q does not equal 0. In other words, a rational inequality is in standard form when the inequality is set to 0. Solving Rational Inequalities Using a Sign Graph of the Factors This method of solving rational inequalities only works if the numerator and denominator factor.  If at least one of them doesn't factor then you will need to use the test-point method shown later on this page. This method works in the same fashion as it does with quadratic inequalities. If you need a review on solving quadratic inequalities, feel free to go to Tutorial 23A: Quadratic Inequalities. Be careful, it is really tempting to multiply both sides of the inequality by the denominator like you do when solving rational equations.  The problem is the expression in the denominator will have a variable, so we won't know what the denominator is equal to.  Remember that if we multiply both sides of an inequality by a positive number, it does not change the inequality.  BUT if we multiply both sides by a negative, it does change the sign of the inequality.  Since we don't know what sign we are dealing with we need to go about it the way described below. Step 1: Write the rational inequality in standard form. It is VERY important that one side of the inequality is 0. 0 is our magic number.  It is the only number that separates the negatives from the positives.  If an expression is greater than 0, then there is no doubt that its sign is positive.  Likewise, if it is less than 0, its sign is negative.  You can not say this about any other number.  Since we are working with inequalities, this idea will come in handy.  With this technique we will be looking at the sign of a number to determine if it is a solution or not. Step 2: Factor the numerator and denominator and find the values of x that make these factors equal to 0 to find the boundary points. The boundary point(s) will mark off where the rational expression is equal to 0.  This is like the cross over point.  0 is neither positive or negative. As mentioned above, this method of solving rational inequalities only works if the numerator and denominator factor.  If at least one of them doesn't factor then you will need to use the test-point method shown later on this page. Step 3: Use the boundary point(s) found in step 2 to mark off test intervals on the number line. The boundary point(s) on the number will create test intervals. Step 4: Find the sign of every factor in every interval. You can choose ANY value in an interval to plug into each factor.  Whatever the sign of the factor is with that value gives you the sign you need for that factor in that interval.  Make sure that you find the sign of every factor in every interval. Since the inequality will be set to 0,  we are not interested in the actual value that we get when we plug in our test points, but what SIGN (positive or negative) that we get. Step 5: Using the signs found in Step 4, determine the sign of the overall rational function in each interval. Since the inequality will be set to 0,  we are not interested in the actual value that we get when we plug in our test points, but what SIGN (positive or negative) that we get. When you look at the signs of your factors in each interval, keep in mind that they represent a product and/or quotient of the factors that make up your overall rational function. You determine the sign of the overall rational function by using basic multiplication sign rules: The product or quotient of two factors that have the same sign is positive. The product or quotient of two factors that have the opposite signs is negative. This can be extended if you have more than two factors involved. If the rational expression is less than or less than or equal to 0, then we are interested in values that cause the rational expression to be negative. If the rational expression is greater than or greater than or equal to 0, then we are interested in values that cause our rational expression to be positive. Step 6: Write the solution set and graph. If you need a review on writing interval notation or graphing an inequality, feel free to go to Tutorial 22: Linear Inequalities. Example 1: Solve, write your answer in interval notation and graph the solution set: . Step 1: Write the rational inequality in standard form. This rational inequality is already in standard form. Step 2: Factor the numerator and denominator and find the values of x that make these factors equal to 0 to find the boundary points. Numerator: *Set numerator = 0 and solve Denominator: *Set denominator = 0 and solve -5 and 1 are boundary points. Below is a graph that marks off the boundary points -5 and 1 and shows the three sections that those points have created on the graph.  Note that there is a open hole at -5.  Since that is the value that causes the denominator to be 0, we cannot include where x = -5.  Since our inequality includes where it is equal to 0, and 1 causes only the numerator to be 0 there is a closed hole at 1.     Note that the two boundary points create three sections on the graph: , , and . You can choose ANY point in an interval to represent that interval.  Remember that we are not interested in the actual value that we get, but what SIGN (positive or negative) that we get. If we chose a number in the first interval, , like -6 (I could have used -10, -25, or -10000 as long as it is in the interval), it would make both factors negative:   -6 - 1 = -7 and -6 + 5 = -1 If we chose a number in the second interval, , like 0 (I could have used -4, -1, or 1/2 as long as it is in the interval), it would make x - 1 negative and x + 5 positive:  0 - 1 = -1 and 0 + 5 = 5 If we chose a number in the third interval, , like 2 (I could have used 10, 25, or 10000 as long as it is in the interval), it would make both factors positive:   2 - 1 = 1 and 2 + 5 = 7 Step 5: Using the signs found in Step 4, determine the sign of the overall rational function in each interval. In the first interval, , we have a negative divided by a negative, so the sign of the quadratic in that interval is positive. In the second interval, , we have a positive divided by a negative, so the sign of the quadratic in that interval is negative. In the third interval,  , we have two positives, so the sign of the quadratic in that interval is positive. Keep in mind that our inequality is .  Since we are looking for the quadratic expression to be GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO 0, that means we need our sign to be POSITIVE (OR O). Interval notation:  Graph: *An open interval indicating all values less than -5  and a closed interval indicating all values greater then or equal to 1 *Visual showing all numbers less than -5 or greater then or equal to 1 Solving Rational Inequalities Using the Test-Point Method The test-point method for solving rational inequalities works for any rational function that has a real number solution, whether the numerator or denominator factors or not. This method works in the same fashion as it does with quadratic inequalities. If you need a review on solving quadratic inequalities, feel free to go to Tutorial 23A: Quadratic Inequalities. Be careful, it is really tempting to multiply both sides of the inequality by the denominator like you do when solving rational equations.  The problem is the expression in the denominator will have a variable, so we won't know what the denominator is equal to.  Remember that if we multiply both sides of an inequality by a positive number, it does not change the inequality.  BUT if we multiply both sides by a negative, it does change the sign of the inequality.  Since we don't know what sign we are dealing with we need to go about it the way described below. Step 1: Write the rational inequality in standard form. It is VERY important that one side of the inequality is 0. 0 is our magic number.  It is the only number that separates the negatives from the positives.  If an expression is greater than 0, then there is no doubt that its sign is positive.  Likewise, if it is less than 0, its sign is negative.  You can not say this about any other number.  Since we are working with inequalities, this idea will come in handy.  With this technique we will be looking at the sign of a number to determine if it is a solution or not. Step 2:  Find the values of x that make the numerator and denominator equal to 0 to find the boundary points. The boundary point(s) will mark off where the rational expression is equal to 0.  This is like the cross over point.  0 is neither positive or negative. Step 3: Use the boundary point(s) found in Step 2 to mark off test intervals on the number line. The boundary point(s) on the number will create test intervals. Step 4: Test a point in each test interval found in Step 3 to see which interval(s) is part of the solution set. You can choose ANY point in an interval to represent it.  You need to make sure that you test one point from each interval.  Sometimes more than one interval can be part of the solution set. Since the inequality will be set to 0,  we are not interested in the actual value that we get when we plug in our test points, but what SIGN (positive or negative) that we get.  If the rational expression is less than or less than or equal to 0, then we are interested in values that cause the rational expression to be negative. If the rational expression is greater than or greater than or equal to 0, then we are interested in values that cause our rational expression to be positive. Step 5: Write the solution set and graph. If you need a review on writing interval notation or graphing an inequality, feel free to go to Tutorial 22: Linear Inequalities. Example 2: Solve, write your answer in interval notation and graph the solution set: . Step 1: Write the rational inequality in standard form. *Inv. of add. 1 is sub. 1 Step 2: Factor the numerator and denominator and find the values of x that make these factors equal to 0 to find the boundary points. Numerator: *Set numerator = 0 and solve Denominator: *Set denominator = 0 and solve -1/4 and 0 are boundary points. Below is a graph that marks off the boundary points -1/4 and 0 and shows the three sections that those points have created on the graph.  Note that open holes were used on those two points since our original inequality did not include where it is equal to 0 and -1/4 makes the denominator 0.      Note that the two boundary points create three sections on the graph: ,  , and . Step 4: Test a point in each test interval found in step 3 to see which interval(s) is part of the solution set. You can choose ANY point in an interval to represent that interval.  Remember that we are not interested in the actual value that we get, but what SIGN (positive or negative) that we get. Keep in mind that our original problem is .  Since we are looking for the quadratic expression to be LESS THAN 0, that means we need our sign to be NEGATIVE. From the interval , I choose to use -1 to test this interval: (I could have used -10, -25, or -10000 as long as it is in the interval) *Chose -1 from 1st interval to plug in for x Since 3 is positive and we are looking for values that cause our quadratic expression to be less than 0 (negative), would not be part of the solution. From the interval , I choose to use -1/5 to test this interval. (I could have used -1/6, -1/7, or -1/8 as long as it is in the interval) *Chose -1/5 from 2nd interval to plug in for x Since -1 is negative and we are looking for values that cause our expression to be less than 0 (negative), would be part of the solution. From the interval , I choose to use 1 to test this interval. (I could have used 10, 25, or 10000 as long as it is in the interval) *Chose 1 from 3rd interval to plug in for x Since 5 is positive and we are looking for values that cause our quadratic expression to be less than 0 (negative),  would not be part of the solution.

Write a degree 3 polynomial with 4 terms polynomials Example 8 Put the polynomial in descending order for x: We see that the end behavior of the polynomial function is: And to realize that there's no magic, you could just use the distributive property to multiply this out again, to multiply it out again, and you're going to see that you get exactly this. The polynomial in the example above is written in descending powers of x. So this first term over here, this simplifies to 2x squared times-- now you get 4 divided by 2 is 2, x to the fourth divided by x squared is x squared. They are often the ones that we want. In polynomials with one indeterminate, the terms are usually ordered according to degree, either in "descending powers of x", with the term of largest degree first, or in "ascending powers of x". So that is the largest number that's going to be part of the greatest common factor. The polynomial 0, which may be considered to have no terms at all, is called the zero polynomial. So what we can do now is we can think about each of these terms as the product of the 2x squared and something else. We did guess correctly the first time we just put them into the wrong spot. From these possibilities, we see that the candidate binomials are: The possible factors of the trinomial are the binomials that we can make out of these possible factors, taken in every possible order. In short, the method is: Since we have x squared as our first term, we will need the following: We are only concerned with the first variable ifthe polynomial has more than one variable. And to figure that something else we can literally undistribute the 2x squared, say this is the same thing, or even before we undistribute the 2x squared, we could say look, 4x to the fourth y is the same thing as 2x squared, times 4x to the fourth y, over 2x squared. That simplifies to 1, maybe I should write it below. Once each factor is in its prime, or nonfactorable form, you are done. Multiply to give the constant term which we call c 2. The evaluation of a polynomial consists of substituting a numerical value to each indeterminate and carrying out the indicated multiplications and additions. The hard part is figuring out which combination will give the correct middle term. In the future, you might be able to do this a little bit quicker. You might want to review multiplying polynomials if you are not completely clear on how that works.

You are on page 1of 5 HOW TO CALCULATE A CORRELATION Can one statistic measure both the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables? Sure! Statisticians use the correlation coefficient to measure the strength and direction of the linear relationship between two numerical variables X and Y. The correlation coefficient for a sample of data is denoted by r. Although the street definition of correlation applies to any two items that are related (such as gender and political affiliation), statisticians use this term only in the context of two numerical variables. The formal term for correlation is the correlation coefficient. Many different correlation measures have been created; the one used in this case is called the Pearson correlation coefficient. The formula for the correlation (r) is data; are the sample means of all the x- values and all the y-values, respectively; and sxand sy are the sample standard deviations of all the x- and y-values, respectively. You can use the following steps to calculate the correlation, r, from a data set: 1. Find the mean of all the x-values 2. Find the standard deviation of all the x-values (call it sx) and the standard deviation of all the y-values (call it sy). For example, to find sx, you would use the following equation: data set, take 4. Add up the n results from Step 3. 5. Divide the sum by sx ∗ sy. 6. Divide the result by n – 1, where n is the number of (x, y) pairs. (It’s the same as multiplying by 1 over n – 1.) This gives you the correlation, r. For example, suppose you have the data set (3, 2), (3, 3), and (6, 4). You calculate the correlation coefficient r via the following steps. (Note that for this data the x-values are 3, 3, 6, and the y-values are 2, 3, 4.) 1. Calculating the mean of the x and y values, you get 2. The standard deviations are sx = 1.73 and sy = 1.00. 3. The n = 3 differences found in Step 2 multiplied together are: (3 – 4)(2 – 3) = (– 1)( – 1) = +1; (3 – 4)(3 – 3) = (– 1)(0) = 0; (6 – 4)(4 – 3) = (2)(1) = +2. 4. Adding the n = 3 Step 3 results, you get 1 + 0 + 2 = 3. 5. Dividing by sx ∗ sy gives you 3 / (1.73 ∗ 1.00) = 3 / 1.73 = 1.73. (It’s just a coincidence that the result from Step 5 is also 1.73.) 6. Now divide the Step 5 result by 3 – 1 (which is 2), and you get the correlation r = 0.87. https://www.dummies.com/education/ math/statistics/how-to-calculate-a- correlation/
# Counting ### Number of Elements in a Set The number of elements in a set can be determined by systematic methods of counting. An experiment is an activity involving chance in which the outcomes are used to estimate probability. When performing an experiment, like rolling a die or flipping a coin, there is a set of possible outcomes. A set is a collection of objects, and an outcome is a possible result of an experiment. The sample space for an experiment is the set of all possible outcomes. An event is a subset of the outcomes in the sample space of an experiment. For the experiment of rolling a die, the sample space is $\lbrace 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 \rbrace$, and rolling an even number is an event that can be represented as the set $\lbrace 2,4, 6\rbrace$. Making an organized list is one way to determine the number of elements in a set. When a coin is flipped three times, there are a variety of possible outcomes. To list the outcomes in the sample space, let H represent the outcome for heads and let T represent the outcome for tails. The sample space is $\lbrace \text{HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT}\rbrace$. The list is organized by recording all outcomes with zero Ts, then all outcomes with one T, then all outcomes with two Ts, and then all outcomes with three Ts. There are eight possible outcomes in the sample space. • The event of flipping exactly one tail has three outcomes: $\lbrace \text{HHT, HTH, THH}\rbrace$. • The event of flipping exactly two tails has three outcomes: $\lbrace \text{HTT, THT, TTH}\rbrace$. • The event of flipping at least two tails has four outcomes: $\lbrace \text{HTT, THT, TTH, TTT}\rbrace$. ### Tree Diagrams A tree diagram is an organized way of identifying all the possible outcomes in an experiment that involves multiple steps. A tree diagram displays the sample space of an experiment so that the possible outcomes can be determined and counted. To make a tree diagram, draw a branch to represent the possible outcomes in each stage of the experiment. Trace each branch to the end of the diagram to determine each outcome in the sample space. In a tree diagram for the experiment of flipping a coin four times, there are two possible outcomes (heads or tails) for the first toss. There are branches from each of those outcomes to represent the possible outcomes for the second toss, and so on. Tracing the top-most branch of the diagram gives the first outcome of the sample space: HHHH. ### Multiplication Principle In a process with multiple steps, the total number of ways to complete the process is the product of the number of ways each step can be done. The multiplication principle, or fundamental counting principle, is a rule for counting the number of outcomes in an experiment. A probability experiment can be thought of as a process. The multiplication principle states that for a process involving two steps, if there are $m$ ways to do step 1 and $n$ ways to do step 2, then there are $m\cdot n$ ways to complete the process. For an experiment, the number of possible outcomes is the number of ways the process can be completed. When there are more than two steps, the multiplication principle still applies; multiply the number of ways each step can be done to find the total number of possible ways to complete the process. Step-By-Step Example Using the Multiplication Principle with Two Parts Identify the number of possible outcomes when choosing two cards from a standard deck of playing cards without replacing the first one. Step 1 Calculate the number of ways to choose each of the two cards. There are 52 cards in a standard deck of playing cards. First, choose one card from 52 cards. Then, choose a second card from the remaining 51 cards. Step 2 Determine the product of the number of ways to make each choice. \begin{aligned}\\\text{Total cards} \cdot \text{Remaining cards}&=\text{Possible outcomes}\\52 \cdot 51 &= 2\text{,}652\end{aligned} Solution There are 2,652 possible outcomes from choosing two cards from a standard deck of playing cards without replacement. Step-By-Step Example Using the Multiplication Principle with Three Parts A sandwich is made from one type of bread, one type of protein, and one type of cheese. Identify the number of possible sandwiches when choosing from 8 types of bread, 5 types of protein, and 7 types of cheese. Step 1 There are three different choices to make: • Choose from eight types of bread. • Choose from five types of protein. • Choose from seven types of cheese. Step 2 Calculate the product of the number of ways to make each choice. \begin{aligned}\text{Bread} \cdot \text{Protein} \cdot \text{Cheese}&=\text{Possible outcomes}\\8 \cdot 5 \cdot 7 &= 280\end{aligned} Solution There are 280 possible sandwiches.

Select one: True False Previous page Jump to... #### STEP 1 Assumptions 1. $b \in \mathbb{R}$ and $b \neq 0$ 2. $\lim_{x \rightarrow c}(b f(x))$ exists 3. We need to determine if $\lim_{x \rightarrow c} f(x)$ exists #### STEP 2 Given that $\lim_{x \rightarrow c}(b f(x))$ exists, we denote this limit as $L$. $\lim_{x \rightarrow c}(b f(x)) = L$ #### STEP 3 Since $b$ is a non-zero real number, we can use the property of limits involving scalar multiplication. Specifically, if $\lim_{x \rightarrow c}(b f(x)) = L$, then: $\lim_{x \rightarrow c} b \cdot f(x) = b \cdot \lim_{x \rightarrow c} f(x)$ #### STEP 4 From the property above, we can express $L$ in terms of the limit of $f(x)$: $L = b \cdot \lim_{x \rightarrow c} f(x)$ #### STEP 5 To isolate $\lim_{x \rightarrow c} f(x)$, we divide both sides of the equation by $b$: $\lim_{x \rightarrow c} f(x) = \frac{L}{b}$ #### STEP 6 Since $b \neq 0$ and $L$ is a finite value (because $\lim_{x \rightarrow c}(b f(x))$ exists), $\frac{L}{b}$ is also a finite value. #### STEP 7 Therefore, $\lim_{x \rightarrow c} f(x)$ exists and is equal to $\frac{L}{b}$. ##### SOLUTION Based on the steps above, we conclude that if $\lim_{x \rightarrow c}(b f(x))$ exists, then $\lim_{x \rightarrow c} f(x)$ must also exist. The statement is True.
# 2023 AMC 10B Problems/Problem 11 ## Problem Suzanne went to the bank and withdrew $800$. The teller gave her this amount using $20$ bills, $50$ bills, and $100$ bills, with at least one of each denomination. How many different collections of bills could Suzanne have received? $\textbf{(A) } 45 \qquad \textbf{(B) } 21 \qquad \text{(C) } 36 \qquad \text{(D) } 28 \qquad \text{(E) } 32$ ## Solution 1 We let the number of $20$, $50$, and $100$ bills be $a,b,$ and $c,$ respectively. We are given that $20a+50b+100c=800.$ Dividing both sides by $10$, we see that $2a+5b+10c=80.$ We divide both sides of this equation by $5$: $\dfrac25a+b+2c=16.$ Since $b+2c$ and $16$ are integers, $\dfrac25a$ must also be an integer, so $a$ must be divisible by $5$. Let $a=5d,$ where $d$ is some positive integer. We can then write $2\cdot5d+5b+10c=80.$ Dividing both sides by $5$, we have $2d+b+2c=16.$ We divide by $2$ here to get $d+\dfrac b2+c=8.$ $d+c$ and $8$ are both integers, so $\dfrac b2$ is also an integer. $b$ must be divisible by $2$, so we let $b=2e$. We now have $2d+2e+2c=16\implies d+e+c=8$. Every substitution we made is part of a bijection (i.e. our choices were one-to-one); thus, the problem is now reduced to counting how many ways we can have $d,e,$ and $c$ such that they add to $8$. We still have another constraint left, that each of $d,e,$ and $c$ must be at least $1$. For $n\in\{d,e,c\}$, let $n'=n-1.$ We are now looking for how many ways we can have $d'+e'+c'=8-1-1-1=5.$ We use a classic technique for solving these sorts of problems: stars and bars. We have $5$ stars and $3$ groups, which implies $2$ bars. Thus, the total number of ways is $\dbinom{5+2}2=\dbinom72=21.$ ~Technodoggo ~minor edits by lucaswujc Denote by $x$, $y$, $z$ the amount of $20 bills,$50 bills and $100 bills, respectively. Thus, we need to find the number of tuples $\left( x , y, z \right)$ with $x, y, z \in \Bbb N$ that satisfy $$20 x + 50 y + 100 z = 800.$$ First, this equation can be simplified as $$2 x + 5 y + 10 z = 80.$$ Second, we must have $5 |x$. Denote $x = 5 x'$. The above equation can be converted to $$2 x' + y + 2 z = 16 .$$ Third, we must have $2 | y$. Denote $y = 2 y'$. The above equation can be converted to $$x' + y' + z = 8 .$$ Denote $x'' = x' - 1$, $y'' = y' - 1$ and $z'' = z - 1$. Thus, the above equation can be written as $$x'' + y'' + z'' = 5 .$$ Therefore, the number of non-negative integer solutions $\left( x'', y'', z'' \right)$ is $\binom{5 + 3 - 1}{3 - 1} = \boxed{\textbf{(B) 21}}$. ~stephen chen (Professor Chen Education Palace, www.professorchenedu.com) ## Solution 3 To start, we simplify things by dividing everything by $10$, the resulting equation is $2x+5y+10z=80$, and since the problem states that we have at least one of each, we simplify this to $2x+5y+10z=63$. Note that since the total is odd, we need an odd number of $5$ dollar bills. We proceed using casework. Case 1: One $5$ dollar bill $2x+10z=58$, we see that $10z$ can be $10,20,30,40,50$ or $0$. $6$ Ways Case 2: Three $5$ dollar bills $2x+10z=48$, like before we see that $10z$ can be $0,10,20,30,40$, so $5$ way. Now we should start to see a pattern emerges, each case there is $1$ less way to sum to $80$, so the answer is just $\frac{6(6+1)}{2}$, $21$ or $(B)$ ~andyluo ## Solution 4 We notice that each$100 can be split 3 ways: 5 $20 dollar bills, 2$50 dollar bills, or 1 $100 dollar bill. There are 8 of these$100 chunks in total--take away 3 as each split must be used at least once. Now there are five left--so we use stars and bars. 5 chunks, 3 categories or 2 bars. This gives us $\binom{5+2}{2}=\boxed{\textbf{(B) 21}}$ ~not_slay ## Solution 5 (generating functions) The problem is equivalent to the number of ways to make $80$ from $2$ bills, $5$ bills, and $10$ bills. We can use generating functions to find the coefficient of $x^{80}$: The $2$ bills provide $1+x^2+x^4+x^6...+x^{78}+x^{80} = \frac{1-x^{82}}{1-x^2},$ The $5$ bills provide $1+x^5+x^{10}+x^{15}...+x^{75}+x^{80} = \frac{1-x^{85}}{1-x^5},$ The $10$ bills provide $1+x^{10}+x^{20}+x^{30}...+x^{70}+x^{80} = \frac{1-x^{90}}{1-x^{10}}.$ Multiplying, we get $(x^{82}-1)(x^{85}-1)(x^{90}-1)(x^2-1)^{-1}(x^5-1)^{-1}(x^{10}-1)^{-1}.$ ## Video Solution 4 ~Steven Chen (Professor Chen Education Palace, www.professorchenedu.com)

# For the parabola x-3 = 1/8 (y+5)^2, what are the coordinates of the vertex and focus and directrix? Jun 24, 2018 Vertex: $\left(3 , - 5\right)$ Focus: $\left(5 , - 5\right)$ Directrix: $x = 1$ #### Explanation: First off, we should recognize that this graph opens to the right. This will be important later. To find the vertex, find the $h$ and $k$ values: $x - h = \frac{1}{4 p} {\left(y - k\right)}^{2}$ $x - 3 = \frac{1}{8} {\left(y + 5\right)}^{2}$ $h = 3 , k = - 5$ Vertex: $\left(3 , - 5\right)$ Next, let's find the focus and directrix. First, though, we should find $p$, which you might know as the distance from the vertex to both the focus and the directrix. How do we find that? You might have noticed $\frac{1}{4 p}$ in the first equation you saw. Let's set our scale factor, $\frac{1}{8}$, equal to that: $\frac{1}{4 p} = \frac{1}{8}$ $4 p = 8$ $p = 2$ To find the focus, we need to start from the vertex. Since the focus is always on the axis of symmetry within the parabola, and since the parabola opens to the right, we need to move $2$ units right from the vertex: $\left(3 + 2 , - 5\right) = \left(5 , - 5\right)$ Finally, the directrix will be $2$ units away from the vertex in the opposite direction. The graph opens to the side, so the directrix will start with $x =$. Our directrix, therefore, is $x = 1$.

Understanding Scale Factor: If ABC DEF, What Is The Scale Factor? When it comes to geometry and mathematics, various concepts and formulas need to be understood to solve problems. One such important concept is scale factor. If you are trying to determine the proportional relationship between two similar objects or figures, you need to understand how to calculate the scale factor. In this article, we will explore the concept of scale factor in the context of ABC DEF. By the end, you will be able to determine and calculate the scale factor using the appropriate formula and equation. Key Takeaways: • The scale factor is used to determine the proportional change between two similar figures or objects. • ABC and DEF typically represent two similar triangles, with the corresponding sides having proportional lengths. • Deriving the scale factor formula is essential for calculating the scale factor. • Understanding the scale factor isn’t just about calculation but also how it is applied in real-world scenarios. • The concept of scale factor extends beyond the specific example of ABC DEF and has various applications in fields like architecture, engineering, and computer graphics. What is a Scale Factor? Before we dive into the specifics of determining the scale factor for ABC DEF, let’s first establish what we mean by the term. A scale factor is a ratio that describes the proportional change between two similar figures or objects. It is used to determine the relationship between corresponding sides or dimensions. A scale factor is typically represented as a fraction or a decimal, such as 1/2, 1:2, or 0.5. It is a dimensionless quantity, meaning it has no units of measurement. Instead, it describes how much larger or smaller one figure is compared to the other. For example, if we were comparing two similar triangles, the scale factor would tell us how many times larger or smaller one triangle is compared to the other. A scale factor of 2 would mean that one triangle is twice as large as the other, while a scale factor of 0.5 would mean that one triangle is half the size of the other. Understanding the concept of scale factor is especially important in fields like architecture, engineering, and design, where resizing objects to scale is essential. By using the scale factor, we can proportionally resize a figure or object while maintaining its overall shape and structure. Understanding ABC DEF To comprehend the scale factor in the context of ABC DEF, we need to understand the specific figures or objects represented by these symbols. ABC and DEF typically represent two similar triangles, with the corresponding sides having proportional lengths. This means that the ratio of the length of the sides of one triangle to the corresponding sides of the other triangle is equal. This proportionality is what makes them “similar.” Similar triangles have the same shape, but their sizes are different. In other words, one triangle is an enlarged or reduced version of the other. The two triangles, ABC and DEF, are similar because they have the same shape, but their sizes are different. To understand how to calculate the scale factor between the two triangles, we need to know the corresponding sides or dimensions. Deriving the Scale Factor Formula Calculating the scale factor requires understanding its formula. The scale factor formula is derived by taking the ratio of the corresponding sides of two similar figures. To derive the formula, we consider two similar triangles with corresponding sides of length a, b, and c and a’, b’, and c’ respectively: Triangle ABCTriangle DEF aa’ bb’ cc’ The ratio of the corresponding sides of these triangles is: a/a’ = b/b’ = c/c’ This can be simplified to a single ratio: k = a/a’ = b/b’ = c/c’ where k is the scale factor. Therefore, the scale factor formula is: scale factor = k = a/a’ = b/b’ = c/c’ It is important to note that the scale factor remains the same for all corresponding sides of the similar figures. Understanding the scale factor formula is crucial for calculating the scale factor for similar figures like ABC DEF. Now that we have derived the formula, we can move on to calculating the scale factor. Calculating the Scale Factor for ABC DEF Now that we have established what a scale factor is and understand the specific scenario of ABC DEF, we can move on to calculating the scale factor. The formula for determining the scale factor is: scale factor = length of corresponding side in triangle ABC / length of corresponding side in triangle DEF Let’s use an example to illustrate how to calculate the scale factor. Consider the following two triangles: Triangle ABCTriangle DEF Side AB = 6 cmSide DE = 12 cm Side AC = 9 cmSide DF = 18 cm Side BC = 12 cmSide EF = 24 cm In this example, we are looking to determine the scale factor between the two triangles, so we need to identify the corresponding sides. In this case, AB corresponds to DE, AC corresponds to DF, and BC corresponds to EF. Let’s calculate the scale factor for the first pair of corresponding sides, AB and DE: scale factor = length of corresponding side in triangle ABC / length of corresponding side in triangle DEF scale factor = 6 cm / 12 cm scale factor = 0.5 We can repeat this process for the other two pairs of corresponding sides and obtain the scale factor values of 0.5 for all three pairs. Therefore, the scale factor between the two triangles is 0.5. Remember that the scale factor is a ratio, so it is dimensionless and has no units. It simply represents the proportional relationship between the corresponding sides of two similar figures. Applying the Scale Factor The scale factor is not just a mathematical concept; it has real-world applications. In the case of ABC DEF, understanding the scale factor can help us resize and transform the triangles. For example, imagine we have a picture of a triangle ABC. We want to enlarge it and create a new picture that is twice the size. We can use the scale factor to do this. If we know the scale factor is 2, we can multiply the corresponding sides of the triangle by 2. This will give us a new triangle that is twice the size of the original. Similarly, if we want to shrink a figure, we can use a scale factor less than 1. If we want to flip a figure, we can use a negative scale factor. These are just a few examples of how the scale factor can be applied in real-world scenarios. Other Applications of Scale Factor While we have primarily focused on the scale factor in the context of ABC DEF, it has applications beyond this specific example. The scale factor is a crucial concept in various fields, from architecture to computer graphics. One real-world application of the scale factor is in the design of blueprints and architectural models. Architects often use scale models to represent buildings in a smaller size. By using a scale factor, they can accurately determine the measurements and proportions of the actual building. In the world of computer graphics, the scale factor is also an essential tool. It is used to resize and transform 3D models, allowing designers to create more complex and intricate designs. “The scale factor is a powerful tool for designers and architects, allowing them to create accurate and intricate designs with ease.” The scale factor can also be applied in engineering, as it is used in determining the size and proportions of various components. By using the appropriate scale factor, engineers can ensure that the components fit together correctly. • Fun fact: The scale factor is also used in mapmaking, as cartographers use it to represent the Earth’s surface on a flat paper map. Overall, understanding the concept of the scale factor is essential for various mathematical and real-world applications. By grasping the idea and learning how to apply it, you can enhance your problem-solving abilities and explore different fields of study. Exploring Scale Factor Equations In addition to the scale factor formula, there are several different equations that can be used to represent the relationship between corresponding sides or dimensions. Each equation has its own significance and can be applied to specific scenarios. One equation commonly used in geometry is the proportionality equation. This equation states that for two similar figures, the ratio of the corresponding sides is the same. Mathematically, we can represent this as: Side of ABC / Corresponding side of DEF = Side of ABC / Corresponding side of DEF This equation emphasizes the proportional relationship between the sides of similar figures. Another equation used in the context of scale factor is the dimension equation. This equation represents the proportional relationship between dimensions of similar objects. For example: Length of ABC / Length of DEF = Width of ABC / Width of DEF This equation is particularly useful in fields like architecture and engineering, where understanding the proportional relationship between dimensions is critical. Lastly, we have the cross-multiplication equation, which is another way to express the proportionality equation. This equation is often used to solve for an unknown value when the ratio of the corresponding sides is known. The equation is: Side of ABC x Corresponding side of DEF = Side of DEF x Corresponding side of ABC Understanding the different equations that can be used to express the relationship between corresponding sides or dimensions can be helpful in various mathematical and real-world applications. Factors Influencing Scale Factor While the scale factor primarily represents the proportional relationship between corresponding sides of similar figures, there are certain factors that can influence its value. Understanding these factors is crucial for accurately assessing the size or shape of objects. One of the influencing factors is the orientation of the figures or objects. When two similar figures or objects are rotated, the scale factor remains the same. However, if one of the figures is flipped, the scale factor will have a negative value. This occurs due to the inversion of the corresponding sides. Another factor that can influence the scale factor is the presence of 3D objects. When calculating the scale factor for 3D objects, the proportion of corresponding sides can vary depending on the dimension being observed. For instance, if we consider two similar cubes, the scale factor for their side lengths will be different from that of their volumes. Furthermore, the scale factor can be affected by the measurement units used. When working with different units, such as centimeters and inches, the scale factor may need to be converted to ensure accurate calculations. Lastly, the scale factor can also be influenced by the degree of accuracy required. Depending on the level of precision needed, the scale factor may need to be rounded to a certain number of decimal places or represented as a fraction instead of a decimal. By considering these factors and their impact on the scale factor, you can ensure that your calculations accurately represent the size and shape of similar figures and objects. Section 10: Conclusion In conclusion, if ABC DEF, the scale factor is a crucial concept for understanding the proportional relationship between similar figures or objects. By calculating the scale factor using the appropriate formula and equation, you can enhance your mathematical prowess and apply it to solve problems within various fields. Remember that the scale factor is a ratio that describes the proportional change between corresponding sides or dimensions. It can also be used to resize or transform figures and objects in real-world scenarios, making it an essential tool in fields like architecture, engineering, and computer graphics. Moreover, while the scale factor is primarily determined by the proportional relationship between corresponding sides, factors like rotational symmetry, translation, and reflection can influence its value. Understanding these factors can help you derive more accurate scale factor calculations and make informed decisions.

# 1.07 Order 3 digit numbers Lesson ## Ideas Before we begin looking at ordering numbers, and working out which numbers are the largest or smallest we need to remember how to identify the value of the digits in our number. ### Examples #### Example 1 State the value for the underlined digit. Worked Solution Create a strategy Imagine the numbers are written in a place value table to help find the value of the digit. Apply the idea Here is the complete table: The 8 is in the tens column. So the value is 8 tens which is 80. Idea summary We can use a place value table to find the value of each digit in a number. ## Order numbers to 1000 on a number line Let's look at how to use a number line to order numbers from smallest to largest, and largest to smallest. ### Examples #### Example 2 We want to work out which of 3 numbers is the biggest. a Which of the number lines has 730,830, and 930 plotted correctly? A B Worked Solution Create a strategy Check the values of the ticks on the number line. Apply the idea Each small tick corresponds to 20. So 730 should be two ticks to the left of 750, 830 should be two ticks to the left of 850, and 930 should be two ticks to the left of 930. So the correct answer is option A. b Write the three numbers from smallest to largest on one line. Worked Solution Create a strategy The smaller a number is, the further to the left on the number line it is. Apply the idea Since 730 is to the left of 830, and 830 is to the left of 930, then 730 is the smallest number and 930 is the largest number. The three numbers from smallest to largest are: 730,\, 830, \, 930 Idea summary The smaller a number is, the further to the left on the number line it is. ## Order number to 1000 using place value We can also use place value to order numbers, and this video includes an example of how we do that. ### Examples #### Example 3 Order these numbers from largest to smallest. a 73,\, 33, \, 37 Worked Solution Create a strategy We should order the tens first, then the ones. Apply the idea The numbers in the place value table are shown: 33 and 37 have the same smallest tens digit, so they are smaller than 73. But 33 has the smaller ones digit, so 33 is smaller than 37. The numbers from largest to smallest are: 73,\,37,\, 33 b 671,\, 167, \, 617 Worked Solution Create a strategy We should order the hundreds first, then the tens, then the ones. Apply the idea The numbers in the place value table are shown: 167 has the smallest hundreds digit so it is the smallest number. 671 and 617 have equal hundreds digits, but 617 has the smaller tens digit. The numbers from largest to smallest are: 671,\,617,\, 167 Idea summary When we use place value to order numbers, always start with the far left digit and think about the digit's place value. Compare the hundreds, then the tens, and then the units (ones). ### Outcomes #### MA2-4NA applies place value to order, read and represent numbers of up to five digits
# 2008 AMC 12B Problems/Problem 17 ## Problem Let $A$, $B$ and $C$ be three distinct points on the graph of $y=x^2$ such that line $AB$ is parallel to the $x$-axis and $\triangle ABC$ is a right triangle with area $2008$. What is the sum of the digits of the $y$-coordinate of $C$? $\textbf{(A)}\ 16\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 17\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 18\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 19\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 20$ ## Solution Supposing $\angle A=90^\circ$, $AC$ is perpendicular to $AB$ and, it follows, to the $x$-axis, making $AC$ a segment of the line $x=m$. But that would mean that the coordinates of $C$ are $(m, m^2)$, contradicting the given that points $A$ and $C$ are distinct. So $\angle A$ is not $90^\circ$. By a similar logic, neither is $\angle B$. This means that $\angle C=90^\circ$ and $AC$ is perpendicular to $BC$. Let C be the point $(n, n^2)$. So the slope of $BC$ is the negative reciprocal of the slope of $AC$, yielding $m+n=\frac{1}{m-n}$ $\Rightarrow$ $m^2-n^2=1$. Because $m^2-n^2$ is the length of the altitude of triangle $ABC$ from $AB$, and $2m$ is the length of $AB$, the area of $\triangle ABC=m(m^2-n^2)=2008$. Since $m^2-n^2=1$, $m=2008$. Substituting, $2008^2-n^2=1$ $\Rightarrow$ $n^2=2008^2-1=(2000+8)^2-1=4000000+32000+64-1=4032063$, whose digits sum to $18 \Rightarrow \textbf{(C)}$. ## See Also 2008 AMC 12B (Problems • Answer Key • Resources) Preceded byProblem 16 Followed byProblem 18 1 • 2 • 3 • 4 • 5 • 6 • 7 • 8 • 9 • 10 • 11 • 12 • 13 • 14 • 15 • 16 • 17 • 18 • 19 • 20 • 21 • 22 • 23 • 24 • 25 All AMC 12 Problems and Solutions The problems on this page are copyrighted by the Mathematical Association of America's American Mathematics Competitions.
# Problem of the Day: 1/13/13 Jemma’s sock drawer is a mess. She has four types of socks—four pairs each of pink, navy with yellow stripes, black with polka-dots, and purple/green argyle—all jumbled up together. Her dress principles require that she always wear two socks of different colors, however. How many socks must she pull out randomly in the morning to ensure that she gets two socks of different colors? Solution to yesterday’s problem: To solve an equation with absolute value, you must know this: for an absolute value to equal something, the original number can be the positive value or the negative value. For instance, if $|x-2|=1$, then x – 2 = 1 or -1. In this equation, we have two absolute values. So first let’s remove the absolute value and create our two cases: (1) $|x-1|-2=1$ (2) $|x-1|-2=-1$ Before we remove the absolute value in either case, we must isolate it on one side. Here, we add 2 to both sides: (1) $|x-1|=3$ (2) $|x-1|=1$ Now we can work on each case individually. Let’s remove the absolute value in case 1 first: (1a) $x-1=3$ (1b) $x-1=-3$ Solving each of these like a normal equation, x = 4 or x = -2. Moving to the second case, we’ll remove the absolute value first: (2a) $x-1=1$ (2b) $x-1=-1$ Solving, we get x = 2 or x = 0. So our solutions are 4, -2, 2, and 0. Adding these up, we find the answer to be 4.
Day 3 – Proportions, Similar Triangles TEXT: Elementary College Geometry by Africk Geometry Labs by Henri Picciotto. Videos from Khan Academy. A ratio is just a fancy name for a comparison between 2 quantities, usually with the same units. For instance, the ratio of the mass of the earth to that of the moon is about 80 to 1 and for the diameter it is about 4 to 1. In other words, the earth, 80 times as massive as the moon, will appear 4 times as wide to an outside observer. Click here for more planetary ratio information. A proportion is an equation stating that 2 ratios or fractions are equal. There are 2 principal tasks with proportions. 1. To be in proportion: determine whether the proportion is true, in another words whether 2 ratios are equal. Click here if you are not familiar with this. 2. Assume that a proportion is true and solve for unknown: Often the proportion with an unknown is associated with a word problem: Here are some additional word problems solved using proportions. If the proportion is a:b=c:d, then the means are “b” and “c” and the extremes are “a” and “d”.  Switching the means  or extremes produces equivalent proportions, e.g., a:b=c:d is true if and only if a:c=b:d is true. A common solution technique, cross-multiplication, can be stated: the product of the means is equal to the product of the extremes. Similar planar figures have the same shape but may be of different sizes. In other contexts, such as architecture or biology, the concept is scale drawings. Polygon similarity means  (1) corresponding angles are the same and (2) corresponding sides are in proportion. In general, to determine similarity, it is not enough to have just information about angles or sides. For example, 2 rectangles have the same angles but are not necessarily similar; the ratio between consecutive sides is arbitrary. Rhombi have equal sides, yet may not be similar. Thinking of vertices as hinges,  open them up equally to get a square or close them at 2 opposite vertices to get a skinny diamond. To get similar triangles, it is enough to know that either their angles (AAA) are equal or their sides are in proportion RRR (SSS). In fact, it is enough to know that just 2 sets of angles are equal (AA) since we get the third set of equal angles for free (the 3 angles of a triangle sum to 180°). More surprising, it is enough to know 2 pairs of corresponding sides are in proportion and their included angles are equal RAR (SAS).  The first half of this video is a problem requiring RAR (SAS). For a wider exposition of the topic, see the KA video parts I and II; more exercises. Note: Don’t get confused with our abbreviations. We will encounter SSS and SAS again but in the context of equal or congruent triangles (equal sides as well as angles). Hence, we the instructors have decided to use RRR in place of SSS and RAR in place of SAS (R stands for “ratio”). Lab 10.1 will give you hands on experience with the geoboard and is designed to  cement notions from the day’s material, including scaling and similarity. To do problems 4 and 5, you should be familiar with the notion of slopeHere is a mildly annoying rap video on the subject which you may find humorous. Check out how a teacher uses a mirror to calculate the heights of students in her class. [On p. 24 of your geometry textbook, the angles of incidence and reflection are defined as in this diagram. In physics, the angles defined are the respective complements. However, the statement “angle of reflection = angle of incidence” is valid for both sets of definitions.] 8 Responses to Day 3 – Proportions, Similar Triangles 1. awiltshire says: Pr. Halleck So today I was a lil bit confused I didn’t quite understand the lab, but working in a group helped me a lil to understand it better. It’s had been a long time since I learned about finding the Slope of a line so it was a bit misunderstood, but eventually I got it and was able to complete the lab questions. 2. gretchenv says: Prof. Reitz The cup cake problem was fun and helped me, it made me learn the material better. 3. Nahim Mishi says: Pro. Reitz At the end of class i was confused as to AAA or SAS but after reading the notes here i got a better understanding of it. 4. wavygee says: George Duncan I wasnt sure about the lab we did at first it was kind of confusing. As we worked on it it began to slowly come back to me. I realize that there is a lot of things i learned in the past that I dont remember. 5. lalayudi says: the handout was hard to read and understand. But its helpful after all. 6. Mr. Reitz
# How to Calculate the Surface Area of Pyramids and Cones The mysteries of the ancient pyramids and the delicious appeal of an ice cream cone have one thing in common - their distinctive shapes! Beyond their allure and history, pyramids and cones are geometric wonders. How much space does their surface cover? What mathematical intricacies lie behind their slanted sides? In this comprehensive guide, we will uncover the techniques to calculate the surface area of pyramids and cones, making these enigmatic shapes more accessible. Let's embark on this intriguing journey through the slopes of geometry! ## Step-by-step Guide: Surface Area of Pyramids and Cones Pyramid: The surface area  of a pyramid can be found using the formula: Surface Area $$SA = \text{Base Area} + \frac{1}{2} \times \text{Perimeter of Base} \times \text{Slant Height}$$ Cone: The surface area  of a cone can be found using the formula: Surface Area $$SA = \pi r^2 + \pi r \times \text{Slant Height}$$ Where: $$r =$$ radius of the base ### Examples Example 1: Find the surface area of a square pyramid with a base side of $$5 \text{ cm}$$ and a slant height of $$7 \text{ cm}$$. Solution: Base Area $$= 5 \text{ cm} \times 5 \text{ cm} = 25 \text{ cm}^2$$ Perimeter of Base $$= 4 \times 5 \text{ cm} = 20 \text{ cm}$$ $$SA = 25 \text{ cm}^2 + \frac{1}{2} \times 20 \text{ cm} \times 7 \text{ cm} = 95 \text{ cm}^2$$ Example 2: Calculate the surface area of a cone with a base radius of $$6 \text{ cm}$$ and a slant height of $$10 \text{ cm}$$. Solution: $$SA = \pi (6 \text{ cm})^2 + \pi (6 \text{ cm})(10 \text{ cm}) = 301.44 \text{ cm}^2$$ ### Practice Questions: 1. Determine the surface area of a triangular pyramid with a triangular base of area $$15 \text{ cm}^2$$, base perimeter of $$18 \text{ cm}$$, and a slant height of $$9 \text{ cm}$$. 2. What is the surface area of a cone with a radius of $$4 \text{ cm}$$ and a slant height of $$8 \text{ cm}$$? 1. $$96 \text{ cm}^2$$ 2. $$150.8 \text{ cm}^2$$ ### What people say about "How to Calculate the Surface Area of Pyramids and Cones - Effortless Math: We Help Students Learn to LOVE Mathematics"?

Note also that 37 and 111 are common to all 3 numbers. See 37 and, in particular, 111, in the next section. Something else… 9,768 ÷ 3,885 = 2.5142857142857142 And 88 ÷ 35 = 2.5142857142857142 Hope you can see straight away what’s very interesting…? Yup,… 3 88 5 … That really does deserve some attention. (And, of some interest 9768 ÷ 88 = 111 and it follows that 3885 ÷ 35 = 111 3 × 37 = 111 9768 = 3 × 37 × 88 3885 = 3 × 37 × 35 ( or 3 × 5 × 7 × 37 ) ………… 36 ÷ 70 = 0.5142857142857142 ( See the above section for the relevant decimal places ). ((9,768 ÷ 3,885) – 2) = (6 × 6) ÷ 70 …………. 88 ÷ 35 as a percentage is 351.42857142857142 % (It’s just 1 + 2.5142857142857142 = 3.5142857142857142 then move the dots for the percentage) 351 is the mirror of 153 Interesting a little bit, maybe # 1260 1290 1335 37 185 continued Just to recap a little… 1 2 6 0 1 2 9 0 1 3 3 5 __________ + 3 7 18 5 ………………. The simple math operation:- 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 2 + 2 + 3 = 7 6 + 9 + 3 = 18 0 + 0 + 5 = 5 So… 3. 7. 18. 5 Or 37,185 So we have 37 and 185 here. 185 × 2 = 370 …………….. Ok, so we’ve seen this before. Now, let’s just multiply across (leaving out zeros or we get nowhere) 1260 1 × 2 × 6 = 12 1290 1 × 2 × 9 = 18 1335 1 × 3 × 3 × 5 = 45 12 + 45 + 18 = 75 If we add 75 days to the 1,260 days mentioned in the Revelation of Jesus Christ, we get 1,335, the number of days mentioned in the book of Daniel where those who reach that number of days are blessed. So we see increasingly that there is something very special here. ………. Just exploring a bit now 🤕 Let’s now raise the individual digits to ^2 (again, ditching the zeros) 1260 1^2 × 2^2 × 6^2 = 144 1290 1^2 × 2^2 × 9^2 = 324 1335 1^2 × 3^2 × 3^2 × 5^2 = 2,025 144 + 324 + 2,025 = 2493 2493 ÷ 9 = 277 (9 is the largest factor of 2493) Here is some information regarding 277 that is gleaned from the Internet. 277 is the 59th prime number. It is a regular prime. It is the smallest prime such that the sum of the inverses of the primes up to 277 is greater than two. 59 is a prime which means 277 is a super-prime. (Also, 59 is also a super-prime). 59 is the 17th prime number. 17 is the 7th prime number. Food for thought here. # Euler Totient of 9999999999999999999 The totient of 9999999999999999999 (19 “9’s”) is 6666666666666666660 (18 “6’s”) φ(9999999999999999999) = 6666666666666666660 # 3885 and 7770 1260 + 1290 + 1355 = 3885 3 + 885 = 888 (Gematria of Jesus in the greek) So, what’s new.

Maybe Jeremiah chapter 51 gives a clue:- 41, How Sheshach is captured, and the glory of all the earth is seized! How Babylon has become as an object of horror among the nations! 42, The sea has risen over Babylon, she has been covered by the roar of its waves. 43, Her cities have become as an object of horror, a dry land and a wilderness,21 a land in which no person lives, nor does a son of humankind pass through it. 44, And I will punish Bel in Babylon, and I will wrench out from his mouth ‹what he has swallowed›.22 And the nations will not stream towards him any longer ‹what’s worse›,23 the wall of Babylon has fallen. 45, Come out from her midst, my people, and save each one his life from ‹the burning anger of›24 Yahweh. 46, Now ‹so that you are not fainthearted›,25 and you are afraid at the rumors6 that are heard in the land— and in the year the rumor comes, and in the year after it the rumor, and violence is in the land, with ruler against ruler— 47, ‹therefore›27 look, days are coming, and I will punish the images of Babylon, and all her land will be put to shame, and all her slain ones will fall in the midst of her. 48, Then the heaven and the earth and all that is in them will shout for joy over Babylon, for from the north the destroyers will come to it,” ‹declares›28 Yahweh. 49, Babylon must fall not only because of the slain ones of Israel, but also because of Babylon the slain ones of all the earth have fallen.   Then in Revelation 18:21 we have:- And one powerful angel picked up a stone like a great millstone and threw [it] into the sea, saying, “In this way Babylon the great city will be thrown down with violence, and will never be found again!

The simple math operation:- 1 + 1 + 1 = 3 2 + 2 + 3 = 7 6 + 9 + 3 = 18 0 + 0 + 5 = 5 So… 3. 7. 18. 5 Or 37,185 So we have 37 and 185 here. 185 × 2 = 370 Just let that sink in for a few moments. This is very reminiscent of:- 2300-1335-noah-and-assyrian-siege/ ……… Ok, let’s now do a 3d matrix. So, we take the 2d matrix from above but repeat the 2d matrix so that there are 4 2d (dimensional) matrices thus making a 3d object. Now we take the 2d matrix result, 37,185 and multiply by 4 37,185 × 4 = 148,740 Now, let’s digit group this result… 148 and 740 148 + 740 = 888 888. That’s… Jesus Pretty good. Let’s do some more matrices. 37,185 × 2 = 74,370 74 + 370 = 444 37,185 × 3 = 111,556 111 + 555 = 666 37,185 × 4 = 148,740 148 + 740 = 888 37,185 × 5 = 185,925 185 + 925 = 1,110 37,185 × 6 = 223,110 223 + 110 = 333 37,185 × 7 = 260,295 260 + 295 = 555 37,185 × 8 = 297,480 297 + 480 = 777 And so on…😂

# In a Survey It Was Found that 21 Persons Liked Product P1, 26 Liked Product P2 and 29 Liked Product P3. If 14 Persons Liked Products P1 and P2; - Mathematics In a survey it was found that 21 persons liked product P1, 26 liked product P2 and 29 liked product P3. If 14 persons liked products P1 and P2; 12 persons liked product P3 and P1 ; 14 persons liked products P2 and P3 and 8 liked all the three products. Find how many liked product P3 only. #### Solution Let $P_1 , P_2 \text{ and } P_3$ denote the sets of persons liking products$P_1 , P_2 \text{ and } P_3$ respectively. Also, let U be the universal set. Thus, we have: n( $P_1$= 21, n($P_2$= 26 and n($P_3$ 29 And, n($P_1$$\cap$$P_3$= 12, n($P_2 \cap P_3$n($P_1 \cap P_2 \cap P_3$= 8 Now, Number of people who like only product $P_3$ = n (P_3∩ P_1′∩ P_2′) = n {P_3∩ (P_1∪  P_2)′} $= n \left( P_3 \right) - n\left[ P_3 \cap \left( P_1 \cup P_2 \right) \right]$ $= n\left( P_3 \right) - n\left[ \left( P_3 \cap P_1 \right) \cup \left( P_3 \cap P_2 \right) \right]$ $= n\left( P_3 \right) - \left[ n\left( P_3 \cap P_1 \right) + n\left( P_3 \cap P_2 \right) - n\left( P_1 \cap P_2 \cap P_3 \right) \right]$ $= 29 - \left( 12 + 14 - 8 \right)$ $= 11$ Therefore, the number of people who like only product $P_3$is 11 Concept: Universal Set Is there an error in this question or solution? #### APPEARS IN RD Sharma Class 11 Mathematics Textbook Chapter 1 Sets Exercise 1.8 | Q 15 | Page 47
New Zealand Level 8 - NCEA Level 3 # Addition and Subtraction of Complex Numbers Lesson Complex numbers can be added and subtracted very easily, following the normal laws of algebra. We must only add and subtract like terms. And in complex numbers, like terms are the real parts and the imaginary parts. Let's look a an example with two complex numbers $z_1=3+2i$z1=3+2i and $z_2=6-4i$z2=64i To add these two complex numbers together we must first identify the real and imaginary components of each. Then we add the real components, and imaginary components respectfully #### Here are a few more examples ##### Example 1 $\left(3+7i\right)+\left(2+i\right)$(3+7i)+(2+i) $=$= $\left(2+3\right)+\left(7+1\right)i$(2+3)+(7+1)i $=$= $5+8i$5+8i See how in this example I grouped the real and imaginary parts and then added.  Sometimes this helps keep track of all the components.  Sometimes you can jump straight to the answer. ##### Example 2 $\left(9-2i\right)-\left(-2+6i\right)$(9−2i)−(−2+6i) $=$= $9-2i+2-6i$9−2i+2−6i $=$= $11-8i$11−8i In this example, I expanded the brackets observing the change of sign and then collected like terms. #### More Worked Examples ##### QUESTION 1 Evaluate $\left(3+6i\right)+\left(7+3i\right)$(3+6i)+(7+3i). ##### QUESTION 2 Evaluate $\left(6+9i\right)-\left(-3-4i\right)$(6+9i)(34i). ##### QUESTION 3 Evaluate $\left(-6\sqrt{7}-2i\right)+\left(3\sqrt{7}+7i\right)$(672i)+(37+7i). ### Outcomes #### M8-9 Manipulate complex numbers and present them graphically #### 91577 Apply the algebra of complex numbers in solving problems
# Focus on Math ## Helping children become mathematicians! ### Addition and Subtraction: A Really Big IdeaOctober 25, 2011 Much of what students do in mathematics across the years involves four basic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Within these four operations we really can consider two pairs of operations since • addition and subtraction are inverse operations (each “undoing” the other) • multiplication and division are inverse operations. As students’ mathematics skills increase, so does what we ask them to do in the operations. (NOTE: As I write, I shall concentrate on the process of addition, but please keep in mind that what I am saying applies equally to subtraction since it is the inverse operation of addition.) Young children begin by adding whole numbers such as 2 + 5. Put into a context, it might be a question such as this: There were two birds in a tree. Five more birds came and perched in the same tree. Then how many birds were in the tree? Later children begin adding multi-digit whole numbers. They might be given a problem such as this: 257 + 48. If children write this problem in the typical “stacked” format, we teach them to line up the numbers, beginning on the right. Decimal addition follows soon after. This time the problem may look like this: 2.57 + 4.8. Again, such a problem is typically “stacked”, and we teach students a rule that has them lining up the decimal points. Adding fractions brings about a new situation, and typically a new rule. If students are given a question such as 2/5 + 1/2, we teach them about finding a common denominator, changing one or both fractions (depending on the particular question) into equivalent fractions with the same denominators, and then proceeding to add the numerators. In our example we find the common denominator of 10, change the problem to be 4/10 + 5/10, then add to get 9/10. The common denominator rule must be followed if students are to arrive at a correct solution. Students soon encounter algebra and its accompanying variables. Now they see problems such as 3x + 4y + 2x and we teach another rule: you always add “like terms”. Thus the example can be simplified to 5x + 4y, but these two terms cannot be combined because they are not alike. I propose that the idea of adding “like terms” or “like things” is not new to algebra. In fact, it is exactly the same rule we have been using in every situation. We just have not been calling it that, but maybe we should!! How different would students’ understanding be of all of the addition and subtraction situations if we continually pointed out that we always, always, always add and subtract like things. For young children, we must add things like apples to apples, birds to birds, pencils to pencils, etc.. I once worked with a young girl and asked her to make up a word problem for 2 + 5. She looked out the window from where we were sitting and she saw some birds in an apple tree. She began her story, “There were  2 birds in a tree and 5 apples…”.Then she paused, looked at me, and stated: “That doesn’t make sense!” I asked her what would make sense, and she responded, ” I think I should have apples and apples.” She was right. It only makes sense to add things that are the same. Even when we add 12 boys in a class to 14 girls, we end up saying there are 26 children or students. We actually had to find a “same name” or a “like term” for them if we were going to add them. When it comes to adding multi-digit whole numbers, why is it important to “line up the right side”? Because in writing the problem in that manner we are setting it up so that we can add ones to ones, tens to tens, hundreds to hundreds, etc. This principle is the same for why we “line up the decimal points” when we add decimal numbers. We are ensuring we add ones to ones, tenths to tenths, hundredths to hundredths, etc. In our place-value-based number system, we must add like values, or like terms. Students are often confused when doing an operation on fractions. They have trouble remembering when they have to change the denominators and when they can go “straight across”. I feel there would be less confusion regarding fractions if they knew the big idea about addition and subtraction: namely, that you always add and subtract like things. By the time students begin doing algebra, it should be easy understanding about adding “like terms” since that is what they have been doing the whole time in addition, if only we would help them see that! Mathematically yours, Carollee ### Combined (“Split”) Grade Math Learning Outcomes: BC/WNCPOctober 20, 2011 Filed under: General Math — Focus on Math @ 11:56 am Tomorrow morning I am doing a professional development day session about teaching math in “split” or combined grades. It is helpful for teachers of such “split” grades to have side-by-side learning outcomes for their particular grades. Teachers from the Vancouver IslandNet worked to prepare tables with the learning outcomes for different grades “matched up” in that manner. In other words, for the two (or three) specific grades, all of the outcomes are listed, each beside the outcome(s) that correlate between those grades. If an outcome in one grade does not specifically correlate to the other, then it is suggested that students in the other grade may either explore or review the concept. Such a chart is a very handy tool to have when planning! This link will take you the the Vancouver IslandNet At-A-Glance Project. The learning outcomes for British Columbia (and any other province or territory using the Western and Northern Canadian Protocol [WNCP] math outcomes) are available here for single grades, combined grades (two), or mulitgrades (three). Our thanks to the IslandNet group for providing this valuable resource! Mathematically yours, Carollee ### The Importance of Speaking Clearly Filed under: General Math,Ideas from Carollee's Workshops — Focus on Math @ 10:10 am The toolkit workshop last week was a success overall. We looked (and “played with”) a variety of items that students can use as tools for solving problems. Along the way, however, I learned a valuable lesson about speaking clearly. One of the tools we used at the workshop was the 100-dot array. Now, as it turned out, the participants had a list of possible toolkit items, and we were exploring a number of items on the list, but I was not introducing the items in any particular order. When I began to speak of the 100-dot array and ask the participants to find the samples provided on the tables, quite a few folks looked at me rather strangely. I asked them again to each get a sample of the 100-dot array to use, and finally several folks stopped me to ask me what, exactly, did I want them to use! I tend to talk quickly in a workshop (there is always SOOOOO much math to talk about, and I am trying to squeeze in as much as I can to any given time period!) and in speaking quickly I was not speaking clearly. In fact, one participant handed me a note at the end of the session with these words written on it: • 100 dotter, eh? • 100 daughter a? • 100 daughter ray? • 100 dotteray? Clearly, in knowing for myself what I was referring to when I said “100-dot array” I assumed that everyone else was hearing what I was saying. They were not! In the end we sorted it out, I pronounced the tool’s name slowly and clearly, and we went on with the session. But it made me wonder about other workshops, other sessions, other classes of students, other teachers with other classes of students. Do others hear clearly what we are trying to say? And what about the students who assume that if they aren’t “getting it” that it is something wrong with them, and not the speaker? There are so many math terms. It is important that we speak them clearly. I hope I have learned my lesson from the “!00-dot array”. Maybe the next workshop will provide the evidence. Mathematically yours, Carollee ### A Patterning Problem: Finding Sums of Consecutive NumbersOctober 6, 2011 This problem is one of my favourites! I first came across this problem about the sums of consecutive numbers in Marilyn Burns‘ book About Teaching Mathematics: A K-8 Resource (Sausalito, California: Math Solutions) and I thought it was an intriguing question. Burns presents the problem to be solved this way: “Ask the students, in their groups, to find all the ways to write the numbers from one to twenty-five as the sum of consecutive numbers. (For younger children, finding the sums for the numbers from one to fifteen may be sufficient.) Tell them that some of the numbers are impossible; challenge them to see if they can find the pattern of those numbers. Direct them to search for other patterns as well.” p. 58 I have done this problem over the last few years with quite a few classes in a range of grades (usually somewhere in the grade 3-8 span). For the older grades I have extended the problem, asking students to write sums for numbers up to 35.) I feel that it is not a problem to hurry the students through, and I often take more than one day with the task. What I like most about the problem is that it is full of patterns, and that, in finding the patterns, one “unlocks” the problem. It becomes so much easier to find and predict  the various sums when one notices the patterns that are produced. I also like this problem because we tend to teach patterning to students isolated from problems, and I think that there is something quite powerful about a problem that uses patterns to solve it! The task of finding sums of consecutive numbers provides a good opportunity for students to develop some problem solving strategies.  Burns suggests a list of useful problem-solving strategies, similar to lists proposed by other math authors, naming the major strategies useful to untangle problems: • look for a pattern • construct a table (chart) • make an organized list • draw a picture • use objects • guess and check • work backward • write an equation • solve a simpler (or similar) problem • make a model I have found that students doing this problem tend to make use of  a number of the above strategies including these: look for a pattern, make an organized list, use objets, guess and check, and work backward. Any time that students are engaged in problem solving It is important to discuss with them  both the specific strategies they use to solve the problem and why those strategies were (or were not) effective choices. Additionally, this problem is simple enough on its most basic level that everyone has the chance to delve in and come up with some of the consecutive number sums. At the same time it is quite sophisticated and offers a challenge to the bright students in the class. Burns offers ideas for extensions for this activity, too. For instance, she suggests students try to predict how many ways thirty-six can be written as the sum of consecutive numbers. Going further, she asks if a prediction can be made for any particular number. So, I encourage you to give this one a try with your students — and it is OK if YOU do not have it all figured out ahead of time. Let your students know that you are solving the problem along with them. Mathematically yours, Carollee ### Upcoming Math ConferenceOctober 3, 2011 The British Columbia Association of Mathematics Teaacher’s annual conference will be taking place October 21 in Burnaby, BC. Here is the schedule for the day (at least as posted presently — some changes/additions will likely yet be made) and the link for registering for the conference. There are a wide range of speakers, both for grade levels and for topics. I know you will  find sessions that interest you and I encourage you to go to the conference if you can!
# How do you find the axis of symmetry, and the maximum or minimum value of the function y = x^2 + 4x + 4? Feb 10, 2016 The axis of symmetry is x = -2 The minimum of the function is 0 #### Explanation: The formula for the axis of symmetry is given by $x = - \frac{b}{2 a}$ where the quadratic is $y = a {x}^{2} + b x + c$. Therefore just plug the values in: $- \frac{4}{2}$ => $x = - 2$ which is the axis of symmetry Now that we have the x value, we can plug this in to find the y value, which will always be either a max or a min for the axis of symmetry. We find that y = 0. If a is positive, there will be a min If a is negative, there will be a max (just think back to the parent function $y = {x}^{2}$ ... it opens upwards with a minimum value) Therefore 0 is the minimum value. The axis of symmetry is x = -2

# Can You Get a Negative out of a Square Root? Unrivaled math delimiters. Including last one for you. The basic answer is: yes you can get negative numbers out of square roots. Truth be told, should you wish to locate the square base of any positive genuine numbers, you will get two outcomes: the positive and negative variants of a similar number. Writing a Square Root Equation for Positive and Negative Results Think about the accompanying: 16 = 4 * 4 = (- 4) * (- 4) In the condition above, you can either increase 4 without anyone else or duplicate (- 4) without anyone else to get the aftereffect of 16. Along these lines, the square base of 16 would be: The √ image is called the radical image, while the number or articulation inside the image—for this situation, 16—is called a radicand. For what reason would we need a ± image before 4? Indeed, as we have talked about previously, the square underlying foundations of 16 can be either 4 or (- 4)​. A great many people would simply write this equation basically as . While it is in fact obvious and there’s nothing amiss with it, it doesn’t recount to the entire story. Rather, you can likewise compose the condition so that it expressly demonstrates that you need both the positive and negative square root’s outcomes: Along these lines, others can without much of a stretch tell that the person who composes the condition wishes to have constructive and contrary numbers as the outcome. Great and Imperfect squares As you may know, 16 is a perfect square. Immaculate squares are radicands as an integer, or a entire number, that has a square foundation of another whole number. In the model over, 16 is an ideal square since it has the number 4 as its square root. Positive genuine numbers are not generally flawless squares. There are likewise different numbers, for example, 3, 5, or 13 that are alluded to as imperfect squares. If a radicand is anything but an ideal square, at that point the square foundation of the radicand won’t result is a whole number. Investigate the condition underneath. 5 is certainly not an ideal square. Consequently, its square root won’t be a whole number. Also, the square root isn’t so much as a levelheaded number. Rational numbers are numbers that can be communicated as divisions made out of two whole numbers, e.g. 7/2​, 50/4​, and 100/3​. The square foundation of 5 is an irrational number since it can’t be communicated as portions. The numbers right of the decimal 2.236067 … would proceed on interminably without any rehashing design. All things considered, both nonsensical and sane numbers are a piece of genuine numbers, which means they have unmistakable qualities and exist on the number line. Square Roots of Zero and Negative Numbers We referenced before that any positive genuine numbers have two square roots, the positive one and the negative one. Shouldn’t something be said about negative numbers and zero? For zero, it just has one square root, which is itself, 0. Then again, negative numbers don’t have any genuine square roots. Any genuine number—regardless of whether it’s sure or negative—that is increased without anyone else is consistently equivalent to a positive number, aside from 0. Rather, the square base of every single negative number is an imaginary number. or then again ​​<img src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/ACtC-3eZFkyDcARtKvAZuSWAZK9MeFq5u0WEOfeRiPkY08R2DKOLaTeX: language structure blunder (Unable to order LaTeX recipe, {k}_{U}{y}{n}{95}{I}{q}{y}{I}{Q}{t}{U}{8}{X}{H}{2}{I}{c}{J}-{B}{E}{j}times{8}{y}{K}{2}{l}{k}{w}{j}{O}{p}{j}{p}{t}{D}{F}{E}{05}{Z}{S}{p}{j}{50}{y}{C}{i}{3}{n}{w}{C}{a}{B}{X}{W}{G}{B}{Y}{D}{r}{U}{K}{8}{Q}{I}{u}{Z}{55}{g{K}}{K}{q}{w}{J}{E}{T}{s}{t}{6}{n}{p}{h}{A}{Y}{K}{K}{3}{h}{t}{1}{J}{Z}{L}{k}{9}={w}{50}-{h}{19}-{n}{o}?{a}{u}{t}{h}{u}{s}{e}{r}={0} text{ alt=} text{ width=}{50} text{ height=}{19} text{ information widget=}{i}{m}{a}ge text{/> By definition, the square foundation of (- 1)​ is i​, which is a fanciful unit.

# Making New Functions Algebra students usually learn at some point in their studies that you can dilate a function like $$\mathtt{f(x)=x^2}$$ by multiplying it by a constant value. Usually the multiplier is written as $$\mathtt{A}$$, so you get $$\mathtt{f(x)=Ax}$$, which can be $$\mathtt{f(x)=2x^2}$$ or $$\mathtt{f(x)=3x^2}$$ or $$\mathtt{f(x)=\frac{1}{2}x^2}$$, and so on. What we focus on at the beginning is how this change affects the graph of the function—and, importantly, how we can consistently describe that change as it applies to any function. So, for example, the brightest (orange-brown) curve in the image at the right represents $$\mathtt{f(x)=x^2}$$, or $$\mathtt{f(x)=1x^2}$$. And when we increase the A-value, from 2 to 3, the curve gets narrower. Decreasing the A-value, to $$\mathtt{\frac{1}{2}}$$ for example, causes the curve to get wider. The same kind of “squishing” happens with every function type. (Check out this article by Better Explained for a really nice explanation.) Making New Functions We can also make higher-degree functions from lower-degree functions using dilations. The only change we make to the process of dilation shown above is that now we multiply each point of a function by a non-constant value. More specifically, we can multiply the y-coordinate of each point by its x-coordinate to get its new y-coordinate. At the left, we transform the constant function $$\mathtt{f(x)=5}$$ into a higher-order function in this way. By multiplying the y-coordinate of each original point by its x-coordinate, we change the function from $$\mathtt{f(x)=5}$$ to $$\mathtt{f(x)=(x)(5)}$$, or $$\mathtt{f(x)=5x}$$. Another multiplication of all the points by x would get us $$\mathtt{f(x)=5x^2}$$. In that case, you can see that all the points to the left of the y-axis have to reflect across the x-axis, since each y-coordinate would be a negative times a negative. Another idea that becomes clearer when working with non-constant dilations in this way is that zeros start to make a little more sense. Try it with other dilations (say, $$\mathtt{x \cdot (x+3)}$$ or even $$\mathtt{x \cdot (x-1)^2)}$$) and pay attention to what happens to those points that wind up getting multiplied by 0.
