    Geometry proof

    I wish, i have looked at the question many times, there is no mention of anything besides the parallel lines.

    4U Revising Game

    Im not so sure this is right, my graphing program reakons its the one attached This is wrong because, for example, at (-1,1) it is / -1+1/ doesnt equal 2

    Geometry proof

    Unfortunately im doing year 10 math through distance education, i would be doing year 11, but thats another story. It comes from the year 10 5.3 Maths title page book they have given me.

    Geometry proof

    I calculated that, through pythagoras theorem, the hypotenuse should be roughly 7. It is 3.5! So i conclude that the diagram is not to size. What do i wright?

    I believed the question was flawed, but what am i suposed to write as the answer?

    Geometry proof

    It asks me to prove it, so i dont think using a protractor will be acceptible. Its in the text, so im thinking that it should be able to prove? Ronnkne have you finnished? Must be if you 4 uniters are finding it hard! <script type="text/javascript">vbmenu_register("postmenu_3477332", true)...

    Geometry proof

    Doesnt say, the whole question reads as i have written in the first post, thats all what was given. Mind you, this is in a year 10 textbook! I gave it to my teacher and after 30 minutes of thinking she couldnt do it! So it must be hard. I made a line parallel to JK and MN that goes through L...

    Geometry proof

    I just have this one question that i cant do, it is; Q1) In the diagram (attached), KJ//MN, prove that angle KLM is a right angle.

    Sketching Graphs.. I fail.

    Okay, what he means is, as i have said in my post (kurt.physics, post no. 8), we have identified that x = 2 and x=-2 are 'asymtopes', that is, when we are at 2 and -2, freaky shit happens. Now what tommykins means is that, because something happens, what we should do is see what happens on...

    Sketching Graphs.. I fail.

    So what do we know? Its a fraction, and as a result, the denominator can not equil zero. So we find out what happens when it does equil zero x2 - 4 The difference of two square is a binomial product (in MIF Prelim Ext 1 text its on page 46) a2 - b2 = (a + b)(a - b) So x2 - 4 = (x)2 -...

    Pens: favourite type, colour etc

    Re: blue or black pen? I like blue pens, but much prefer felt tip black. Advanced Mathematics always looks more pro/ellegant when its in felt tip.

    Year 11 > Year 12

    Thats quite an arbitrary statement. Allow for me to analyse, some how you have connected the fact that your first thought is dick (as you have not denied in this post) to me not experiencing. Dick-->No idea. There is no connection. Contrary to the fact I have not experienced year 11/12, do you...

    Year 11 > Year 12

    I have to say yes and no. Not being in Year 11 or 12 i can not say for sure. But, from what i have been told, it depends. If you work really had in year 11, some say, you can have a good year 12. Others say that year 11 is a bluge and year 12 is the hard yards. But i reckon it also depends on...

    Thoughts on Extension 2 Maths

    On the general proposition that imagrants (in this case Asians) dont do well in english, there are only 5 people who do english extension and 1 is an indian. I would say that imagrants dont do well because they have never spoken english! Its like you going over to asia and you being great at...

    What should i do after the HSC???

    As someone has said, it depends on what you want to do. If you really really enjoy your studies and are itching to learn some new material, then i would say go to university. If you are someone who needs money to get to uni, which is a very important factor for people who dont have family...

    Same to you to, good luck! Shame that we cannot compete with each other as im doing MX2 in 2010, oh well. It would be amazing if we could both come first, fully sick!! The hunt is on...lol

    Goals???

    I am going to do Bachalor in Advanced Mathematics at the USyD. Majoring in Pure Mathematics and Physics. Hopefully going to do Masters and PhD at Princeton University :) Hopefully doing either the Physics olympiad or maths to, thats one of my goals. Oh Yeh, coming in the top 10 in state for...
