Hello,
I'm having trouble understanding the computation involved in the resultants from algebraic geometry. I've checked out the textbook Using Algebraic Geometry by Cox et al, so I'll be using terminologies from that text.
For systems of 2 polynomials I can compute the resultant the "long...
hmm... I don't think it's suppose to be that hard... ^^;;
I looked in the back of my calc book, it says the answer is r = (2 - sqrt(3))R
I have the calculus: a new horizon 6th edition by anton book.
Oopies
Yeah, I've thought of that, but then I realized the radius of the small circle doesn't touch the corner. I think I might have made the drawing properly, but if you look closer than you'll see that there is a gap between the small circle and the corner...
Heya, this is my first post, I hope it isn't too hard :rofl:
Alright, the problem goes like this. I put a sphere into a box to be shipped somewhere, it fits perfectly into the box and the sphere has a radius R. Now I have 8 styrofoam spheres that are placed on the corners of the box, find...
