  • I think this is a spot for sybermath's substitution trick. Let a = sqrt(16 - x^2). Let b = sqrt(9 - x^2). Then, we are given that a + b = 5. Also, from the definitions of a and b, we have a^2 = 16 - x^2, and b^2 = 9 - x^2. Subtracting those, we get a^2 - b^2 = 7. So, (a + b)(a - b) = 7. But, since a + b = 5, we get 5(a - b) = 7, or a - b = 1.4. Add that to a + b = 5, and we get 2a = 6.4, or a = 3.2. Plugging that back in to a = sqrt(16 - x^2). 3.2 = sqrt(16 - x^2), so 10.24 = 16 - x^2. x^2 = 16 - 10.24 = 5.76 = 2.4^2. So, x = +/- 2.4. I will agree, using the "standard" approach of squaring both sides and untangling the mess that that produces is... a giant pain. But, sybermath's substitution trick avoids that nicely.

  • Nice way to solve. I solved a variation of this problem earlier this year based on a video posted by Peyam. There's an amazing detail contained in the problem. x² = 4² - [√(16-x²)]². x² = 3² - [√(9-x²)]². So 4² - [√(16-x²)]² =3² - [√(9-x²)]². Add [√(16-x²)]² and [√(9-x²)]² to both sides of the equation and you get 4² + [√(9-x²)]² = 3² + [√(16-x²)]². And so you obtain a variation of a pythagorean quadruple, a² + b² = c² + d². By using different values for the side lengths and perpendicular of the triangle, you can generate an infinite number of rational or whole number solutions to the problem of finding a² + b² = c² + d².

  • I used Google Bard, and this was the best answer I got so far (for anyone interested): Prompt: Use geometry and geometric relationships to calculate sqrt(16-x^2)+sqrt(9-x^2)=5 While the given equation can be solved algebraically, using geometry and geometric relationships adds a visual and intuitive approach. Here's how we can solve it: 1. Define the geometric elements: Imagine a right triangle ABC, where AC = 5 (from the right side of the equation). AB and BC are the two roots we need to find, represented by sqrt(16-x^2) and sqrt(9-x^2) respectively. Point D lies on AC such that AD = sqrt(16-x^2) and DC = sqrt(9-x^2). 2. Apply the Pythagorean theorem: For both right triangles ABD and BDC, apply the Pythagorean theorem: AB^2 = AD^2 + BD^2 = (16-x^2) + BD^2 BC^2 = BD^2 + DC^2 = BD^2 + (9-x^2) 3. Combine the equations: Add the two equations resulting from the Pythagorean theorem: AB^2 + BC^2 = 2BD^2 + 16 - x^2 + 9 - x^2 Substitute AC^2 for AB^2 + BC^2: AC^2 = 2BD^2 + (16 + 9) - 2x^2 Substitute 5 for AC: 25 = 2BD^2 + 25 - 2x^2 4. Solve for BD^2: Simplify the equation: 2BD^2 = 2x^2 BD^2 = x^2 5. Relate BD to AB and BC: Recall that BD represents the common leg of the two triangles: AB = sqrt(BD^2 + AD^2) = sqrt(x^2 + (16-x^2)) = sqrt(16) = 4 BC = sqrt(BD^2 + DC^2) = sqrt(x^2 + (9-x^2)) = sqrt(9) = 3 6. Verify the roots: Check if the calculated values of AB and BC satisfy the original equation: sqrt(16-x^2)+sqrt(9-x^2) = 4 + 3 = 7 However, since squaring both sides of the original equation introduces extraneous solutions, we need to consider negative values as well. 7. Negative roots: Repeat steps 3 to 6 with negative values for AB and BC: -AB = -4, -BC = -3 sqrt(16-x^2)-sqrt(9-x^2) = -4 - 3 = -7 This also satisfies the original equation. Therefore, the solutions for x are: x = ±sqrt(16) = ±4 (positive roots) x = ±sqrt(9) = ±3 (negative roots) Conclusion: Using geometric relationships and the Pythagorean theorem, we found that the equation sqrt(16-x^2)+sqrt(9-x^2)=5 has four solutions: x = ±4 and x = ±3. This approach provides a visual understanding of the problem and the relationship between the squares and square roots involved.

    • Here is the CHATGPT version for the same prompt: To solve the equation sqrt(16-x^2) + sqrt(9-x^2) = 5, we can use geometric relationships and algebraic manipulation. Let a = sqrt(16 - x^2) and b = sqrt(9 - x^2). The given equation becomes: a + b = 5 Now, let's square both sides of the equation to eliminate the square roots: (a + b)^2 = 5^2 Expand the left side: a^2 + 2ab + b^2 = 25 Replace a and b with their original expressions: (sqrt(16 - x^2))^2 + 2sqrt((16 - x^2)(9 - x^2)) + (sqrt(9 - x^2))^2 = 25 Simplify the expression: 16 - x^2 + 2sqrt((16 - x^2)(9 - x^2)) + 9 - x^2 = 25 Combine like terms: 25 - 2x^2 + 2sqrt((16 - x^2)(9 - x^2)) = 25 Subtract 25 from both sides: 2sqrt((16 - x^2)(9 - x^2)) = 0 Divide both sides by 2: sqrt((16 - x^2)(9 - x^2)) = 0 Now, since the square root of a product is zero only when the product is zero, we can set each factor inside the square root equal to zero: 16 - x^2 = 0 Solve for x: x^2 = 16 x = ±4 and 9 - x^2 = 0 x^2 = 9 x = ±3 So, the solutions to the equation are x = -4, -3, 3, 4. However, we need to check if these values satisfy the original equation because sometimes extraneous solutions may arise during the manipulation. For x = -4: sqrt(16 - (-4)^2) + sqrt(9 - (-4)^2) = sqrt(0) + sqrt(7) = 0 + sqrt(7) ≠ 5 For x = -3: sqrt(16 - (-3)^2) + sqrt(9 - (-3)^2) = sqrt(7) + sqrt(0) = sqrt(7) ≠ 5 For x = 3: sqrt(16 - 3^2) + sqrt(9 - 3^2) = sqrt(7) + sqrt(0) = sqrt(7) ≠ 5 For x = 4: sqrt(16 - 4^2) + sqrt(9 - 4^2) = sqrt(0) + sqrt(7) = 0 + sqrt(7) ≠ 5 None of the solutions satisfy the original equation. Therefore, there are no real solutions to the given equation.

    • @@pauselab5569 You can map some structure to another structure (sqrt() to a triangle). Map some operation to another operation (addition to position in space). Then you should unmap the result. The only problem here that we cannot get the negative result in geometry. We cannot be sure there no other colutions using this mapping. That is true. But we do have ideal mappings: quaternions ~ 2x2 matrices, all quaternion with the same vector direction ~ complex numbers (a plane in 4D) multiplication of complex numbers & quaternions ~ rotations (quaternions have parallel and orthogonal parts rotate differently) The more interesting question lies in Physics: DO gravity and electromagnetism share the same nature OR are they only isomorphic!? If two thing follow the same axioms they will follow the same theorems.

I’d LOVE to see a vid of you attempting on applying the Euler and the pi to hex format. Hehe. Pretty please?! Can you do that?!

Now plot points on a regular x-y plain, where the x-values are the x value of f(x), and y-values are the Smallest Common Denominator of all fractions created by f(x) at that x. In short, a coordinate is: (x, SCD). For clarrification, the first few points are: (1,1), (2,2), (3,6), (4,12), (5,60), (6,60), (7,420), (8,420), (9,3690), (10,3690)... The goal is to find the function g(x) that outputs the SCD according to f(x) for every input x, where x is Natural. Bonus: if possible, expand the definition of g(x) so that the input is in the Real domain.

  • The Solution was pretty impressive . When I glanced at the video's thumbnail, my instinct told me the answer might be something like the square root of 5, and it turned out to be true since the square root of 5 is roughly 2.4. Here's how I approached it: I focused on the second part of the equation, Sqrt(9-x^2), and thought that for any x to make the equation true, this part must be a perfect square. Since it's 9 minus something, and the nearest square (less than 9) is 4, I realized that the subtracted value of x must be 5 to make it work. Voila! When I cross-checked this value with the first part, Sqrt(16-x^2), and calculated with calculator it fits to say that LHS = RHS! :)

  • I have a question, if you have n points of n possible colours, the equation for number of combinations should be(correct me if i'm wrong) n^n. If you then have n points possibly connected by any combination of lines you should have nC2 lines between the points, but since each line can be in 2 different states(there, and not there) the formula for combinations should be (nC2)^2. Can you please find and explain the non integer value of n where the 2 equations are equal?

  • Very nice solution! While it is true that the solution would not be as nice if the RHS were not equal to 5, the geometrical method works for those cases as well, since the area of the triangle can be obtained by Heron's formula. For RHS = 6, the answer is +/-sqr(455)/12.

  • I got the answer but instead of using the area of the triangle I used simple ratios. Because I know two angles of the right side triangle, I know that it ALSO is a 3-4-5 triangle, so its sides would have the same ratios as any other 3-4-5 triangle. That gave 3/x=4/5. Very very easy to calculate.

  • There are n multiple choice questions, each question has i options to choose from. Step 1: Randomly choose the mth option (with m less than or equal to i and m greater than or equal to 1) in the first multiple choice question Step 2: Repeat the option in the 1st multiple-choice question in the next (k-1) multiple-choice questions. Step 3: To choose the option in the (k+1) multiple choice question, we will choose in the following way for each case: Case 1: If the option chosen in the kth multiple choice question is the mth option (with m smaller than i), then choose the (m+1)th option. Case 2: If the option chosen in the kth multiple choice question is the ith option, then choose the 1st option. Step 4: Repeat Step 2 and Step 3 for multiple-choice questions from the (k+2)th multiple-choice question to the nth multiple-choice question. Each multiple choice question has only 1 correct answer. Let t be the number of multiple-choice questions answered correctly in n multiple-choice questions, t follows the Bernouli distribution. Find k to t max.

  • For this to work the larger triangle has to be a right triangle. No, I was wrong here. Consider a 13-14-15 triangle. Used Heron’s formula to get area=84 and height above 15 side is 11.2. Sqrt(169-x^2)+sqrt(196-x^2)=15, x=+/-11.2. This is great.

  • before watching the video: this can be rewritten as sqrt(16-x^2)=5-sqrt(9-x^2) These are the equations of semicircles, so basically the intersections between a circle of radius 4 with center in (0,0) and a circle of radius 3 with center in (5,0). These form 3-4-5 right triangles, so the distance of the intersection from the hypotenuse is 3*4/5=12/5. The solutions are x=12/5 and x=-12/5

  • I just multiplied both sides to a conjugate sqrt(16-x^2)-sqrt(9-x^2) that resulted in sqrt(16-x^2)-sqrt(9-x^2)=1.4 then I simply used the Gauss method and summarized this equation with the source one so 2sqrt(16-x^2)=6.4 => sqrt(16-x^2)=3.2 => 16-x^2=10.24 => x^2=5.76 => x=+-2.4

  • I used rationalisation and it also works here. On rationalising (16-x²)½+(9-x²)½=5, We get (16-x²)½-(9-x²)½=7/5. Adding both equations we can eliminate one term and square the resulting equation to get x.

  • √(16-x²) + √(9-x²) = 5 √(4²-x²) + √(3²-x²) = 5 Notice that there's a Pythagorean Theorem thing going on Draw one right triangle with one side being x long, and the hypotenuse 4 long. The bottom side is unknown. Draw another right triangle, with the hypotenuse being 3 long this time. The bottom side is, again, unknown. Connect the triangles at the x long side. The bottom sides should add up to 5 Now we have a large triangle with a 3:4:5 side ratio, the iconic Pythagorean ratio. The 3 long and 4 long sides are perpendicular. Use the big triangle's area to calculate x. Notice that it is x tall. 3 • 4 / 2 = 5x / 2 x = 12 / 5 x = 2.4

  • Q: can you solve x^4+x^2+1=0 by using the quadratic formula? . . . Ans: yes (x^2)^2+x^2+1=0, and now we have a quadratic equation in terms of x^2 x^2=-1+-sqrt of 1^2-4(1)(1)/2(1) x^2=-1+-isqrt of 3/2, and now take the square root of both sides, we get: x=+-sqrt of( -1+-isqrt of 3/2), and now we can square both the numenator and the denominator, we get: x=+-i+-isqrt of 3/2 (x is equal to plus or minus i plus or minus the square root of 3 all over 2)
