    High School Is Zero Raised to the Power of Zero Equal to One?

    As far as math teachers are concerned, you may safely assume 0^0 = 1 (/End deliberate hand-waving mode). As a precaution, most documents or proofs that require its use (most that I've seen, anyway) will still explicitly state it as a useful interpretation before applying it.

    Find the volume y=sinx, bounded by the y axis, and the line y=1

    I was thinking the same thing, and maybe it's just me, but if you finish integrating that, won't you get an answer that's off somewhat? (I think by about +\textstyle{\frac{\pi^2}{4}}, otherwise I'm totally and utterly wrong ) cmab, can you doublecheck that answer that your book states?

    High School Can We Truly Understand the 3rd Dimension?

    Close. It will always be possible to have unknown variables no matter how many dimensions you work with, four or four thousand. (Yes, I'm a lurker, yes, this *was* a dead topic - my bad, and yes, I discovered this by accident while browsing google) All I'm saying is that you don't need...

    Um, not that it matters at this point, but don't the terms "parallax" and "basis" come to mind ?
