Equation:

sin(x) + sin(p - x) equals:

Answers:


0
1
2sin(x)
sin(x) + cos(x)
cos2(x)

Sine chick asked me this and I took the god damned GERD.... Sin and shit was RARELY used in Algebra2.... in ohio.... Sc is stupider obviously.. I damned there passed it with my best subject beoing my worst.....


But the question is no answer unless you know p or X.... or can remake the equation and an answer...

Anyone know this one?

[Krillin]

I absolutely hate math. Hate it. With a passion.

Math > you.

Let p = 10
Then x = 5

2sin(x) would be the answer.

Mathematics is art at its finest.

[Krillin]

No. Philosophy is art at its finest. Math is mechanical and unchanging. No surprises. Nothing new.

Math is no more an art form than crossword puzzles are.

No, just a luck of the draw.

No surprises and nothing new? That's why there are still techniques and unsolved problems out there? I failt o see how philosophy is less mechanical and unchanging than math.

Faaairly sure sin(x) + cos(x).

[Retane]

Dbl post lol

[Retane]

I honestly dunno... I felt it should become an equation as an answer but I dunno what sin or cos mean on a calculator....

X an P are not defined...

[Hellfighter 17]

x and p don't necassarily need to be defined. I don't take trigonometry until next semester, so I cannot be sure, but it seems as though you must assume that p is static and only x can vary.

It's 0

sin(x) + sin(p - x) = sin(x) + sin(p)cos(x) - cos(p)sin(x) if you than simplify the equation it ends up being cos(p) - cos(p) which equals 0.

I should have said 1, since it becomes x + cos(px) - cos(px)

[Hellfighter 17]

Only if x = 1, right?

[Jewtastic]

You assume x=1

[Drake]

No, only as long as x > 0, it will work out. And since it is trig it should work out, since 0 wouldn't show up on a graph I believe.

[Hellfighter 17]

I forget the technical terms, but I believe it could just turn out as looking like a straight line. Also, you can have negative angles.

[Drake]

Trig is stupid anyway, it's been like 6 years. >.>

Take B30 again, then. That would mean you are, like, 23 or 24. =O

Yup, I took b30 and c30 in one semester ~_^ and passed both- got like 87 on the final. Buwauaha. It's only cause I failed b30 in grade 11; damn pokemon blue!

[Hellfighter 17]

Oh, yea, C30 is trigonometry; I'm taking B30 this semester. Yea, well, I took Math10 and Math20 in one semester! Oh, brun!
