delta y as in the change of y, not the derivative.

all i know is that y prime is the derivative of y.

Wow, that was a lot. But extremely helpful. Thanks for help on question 2.

There, I posted an image of it.

It's an introductory physics class that only covers 1 dimensional motion, 2 dimensional motion, and circular motion. They are doing 2 dimensional motion. It is a simple physics course, but alas I do not remember how to do the stuff. Here is a drawing attached to this post.

Hi. I haven't done physics for over a year and a half now, but my friend is taking the class. He asked for my help, but I really didn't know how to help him. Here are the questions... 1) Show how Delta y = (1/2)* (tan theta) * delta x and why Delta y= (1/2) * delta y prime 2) Show why...
