Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Mikebis(m): 5:43pm On Nov 25, 2013
rhydex 247: una dey decline my question @ my maths general.
time to shw ma talent..here is d solutn
1.four vectors a,b,c nd d are said to b coplanar if nd only if there xist scalars p,q,v,s(not all zero)
such dat pa+qb+vc+sd=0
where p+q+v+s=0
since we are nt gvn d equatn of d vector,to shw dat d equatn is equal to zero.we slv 4 dat
3i-2j+4k=a
6i+3j+k=b
5i+3j+3k=c
2i+2j+6k=d
d vector eqn is
-a+b-c+d=0
sub 4 a,b,c nd d
-(3i-2j+4k)+(6i+3j+k)-(5i+7j+3k)+(2i+2j+6j)=0
-3i+2j-4k+6i+3j+k-5i-7j-3k+2i+2j+6k=0
(-3i+6i-5i+2i)+(2j+3j-7j+2j)+(-4k+k-3k+6k)=0
(0+0+0)=0
hence a,b,c nd d are complanar.
2.loadin tinz.......
3.prvn dat d identity of(a^b).(c^d)=(a.c)(b.d)-(a.d)(b.c)
the identity of
(a^b).(c^d) are knwn as commutatv
so let assume dat
p.q=p+q-pq
where p=(a^b)
q=(c^b)
(a^b).(c^b)=(a^b)+(c^b)-(a^b)(c^b)
(a^b).e=(a^b)+e-(a^b)e
(a^b)-(a^b)=e[1-(a^b)]
0=e[1-(a^b)]
e=0
d identity of LHS is equal to zero
(a.c)(b.d)-(a.d)(b.c)
(a.c)(b.d)^(a.d)(b.c)=(a.c)(b.d)-(a.d)(b.c)
(a.c)(b.d)^(b.d)^e=(a.c)(b.d)-e
(a.c)(b.d)=(a.c)(b.d)-e
(a.c)(b.d)-(a.c)(b.d)=-e
0=-e
e=0
d identity RHS is equal to zero

....it depends on hw d function appears...
E.g integral of (xarcsinx)dx ,u =arcsinx[since du/dx will easily give (1-x^2)^-1/2 ) , dv=x , integral of (x lnx)dx u=lnx dv=x .and so on.. U should always check b4 chosin ur 'u' or 'dv' ...bt there are functions , where you are free 2chose any of ur 'u' or 'dv' . E.g integral of (sinx.cosx)dx
hope my little explanations helps....other generals will throw more light....

benbuks: Q1 compute the derivative of cosecx wrt.x from first principle ]
to solve d/dx cosecx by first principle::
y=cosecx=1/sinx.
add ¥ to both sides(¥=delta).
y+¥y=1/sin(x+¥x).
¥y=1/sin(x+¥x)-y.
¥y=1/sin(x+¥x)-1/sinx.
¥y=sinx-sin(x+¥x)/sinxsin(x+¥x).
recall::sinx-siny=2cos(x+y/2)sin(x-y/2).
¥y=[2cos(x+x+¥x/2)sin(x-x-¥x/2)]/sinxsin(x+¥x).
¥y=[2cos(2x+¥x/2)sin(-¥x/2)]/sinxsin(x+¥x).
¥y=[2cos(x+{¥x/2})sin(-¥x/2)]/sinxsin(x+¥x).
divide through by ¥x.....

Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by MrCalculus(m): 10:54pm On Nov 25, 2013
divide through by ¥x.
¥y/¥x=-[2cos(x+{¥x/2})sin(¥x/2)]/¥x/sinxsin(x+¥x).
¥y/¥x=-cos(x+{¥x/2})sin(¥x/2)/(¥x/2)/sinxsin(x+¥x).
recall::lim x-->0.¥x=0,sin(¥x/2)/(¥x/2)=1,¥y/¥x=dy/dx.
dy/dx=-cos(x+0)/sinxsin(x+0)
dy/dx=-cosx/sin^2x.
dy/dx=-cosx/sinx*1/sinx.
dy/dx=-cotxcosecx

I have been on nairaland for more than two yrs.. I dont knw that a thread like this exist..api to be hear

use LAET-
L for log, A for algebra, E for exp n T for trig..
Anyone that come first will be 'U'

Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 5:24pm On Nov 26, 2013
Maybe some of you know this shortcut ..of multiplying any integer by 7

e.g
7x1=10/2 +(1x2)=5+2=7
7x2=20/2+(2x2)=10+4=14
7x3=30/2+(3x2)=15+6=21
7x4=40/2+(4x2)=20+8=28

and so on...
Hence
7xn=n'0'/2 +2n =m

just my little discovery.
.today.....u dont always nid calculator ..u gat it in you...Also,
4x1=10/2 - 1=4
4x2=20/2 -2 =8
4x3=30/2 -3=12
and so on
hence
4xn=n'0'/2 -n
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 6:15pm On Nov 26, 2013
Also
8x1=10/2 +(1x3) =5+3=8
8x2=20/2 + (2x3) =10+6=16

8x4=40/2 +(4x3) =20+12=32

and so on...
Hence

8xn=n'0'/2 +3n=m



also
9x1=10/2 + (1x4) =5+4=9

9x2=20/2 + (2x4)=10+8=18

9x3=30/2 + (3x4)=15+12=27
and so on.

Hence
9xn=n'0'/2 +4n=m
works for all integers
(nb: 'n0' does nt mean nx0...it means introduce a zero .)
See?
You less need calculator since you can create one in your brain....there are lots more shotcuts in mathematics....you can finish an hour exams in less dan half the time..and have a perfect score..

Find the integral of x * root(x-1) dx.
soln.
Here it goes.
$x.sqrt(x-1)dx.
let u=sqrt (x-1)... U^2=x-1 nw we av x=u^2+1. dx/du=2u. dx=2udu. Nw lets substitute dis we av $(u^2+1).u.2udu.
$2u^2(u^2+1)du. $2u^4+2u^2du.
2u^5/5+2u^3/3+C . Replacin u as sqrt(x-1).
2/5*[sqrt(x-1)^5]+2/3*[sqrt(x-1)^3]+C.

Gud evening here...it been a while, hope you all are doing great...?

This's 1 or 2 qt for the gurus in the house.

1. All possible arrangements of the letters of the word REARRANGE are made. If one of these arrangements is chosen at random, what's the probability that it will end in (a) G, (b) R?

2. A man fires at a target, let a = P (he hits the target) = 1/5. Then b = P (he misses the target) = 1 - 1/5 = 4/5. If he fires four times at the target, what is the probability of his obtaining (a) exactly 2 hits, (b) at least 2 hits?
