    Prove Max/Min of f(x) -> Sqrt of f(x) at x0

    Homework Statement prove: if f(x) bigger or the same as 0 on an interval I and if f(x) has a maximum value on I at x0(0 is written small beside the x), then sqrt of f(x) also has a maxsimum value at x0. Similarily for minimum values. Hint: Use the fact that sqrt of x is an increasing...

    Allowable error in elevation angle in pyramid of giza

    the equation is up to now is: dp= (1/115) (cos^2 cos^-1 (115/ sqrt (h^2+ 115^2) ) dh)

    Allowable error in elevation angle in pyramid of giza

    The equation you understood it as is not what I meant, I'm sorry for the error. It's 115/ sqrt (h^2+ 115^2)

    Allowable error in elevation angle in pyramid of giza

    I forgot to place cos^-1 in front of 115/√h^2 + 115^2 and the 115^2 goes under the sign with h^2 as well.

    Allowable error in elevation angle in pyramid of giza

    Then would it be this ; simplified + cos^-1 : dp=( 1/115 ) (cos^2 (115/(√h^2 + 115^2)dh)

    Allowable error in elevation angle in pyramid of giza

    does it become this? dp= dh/115sec^2tan^-1 (h/115)

    Allowable error in elevation angle in pyramid of giza

    Yes, I konw the triangle but I still can't get at it. It seems like a simple one but I don't seem to know something to get at it.

    Allowable error in elevation angle in pyramid of giza

    It's the 2nd part of your step I'm stuck on.

    Allowable error in elevation angle in pyramid of giza

    I know that I need to get that equation and I've tried but I don't seem to get it. That's where I need help.

    Allowable error in elevation angle in pyramid of giza

    Homework Statement the base of the great pyramid giza is a square that is 230m on each side. use differentials to estimate the allowable error in the elevation angle that will ensure that the error in calculating the height is at most +,- 5m. phi is the elevation angle of the pyramid. h=...

    Solving the Diff. Eq: dy/dx= -x/y

    I really don't understand... can you explain the step more thoroughly??

    Solving the Diff. Eq: dy/dx= -x/y

    can someone please help me solve this problem? let C be a flow line for F(x,y) = -yi+xj, and let (x,y) be a point on C for which y is not 0. Show that the flow lines satisfy the differential equation dy/dx= -x/y.
