Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around simplifying a mathematical expression involving variables x and y. Participants suggest using WolframAlpha for simplification, leading to a more manageable form of the equation. The final simplified expression is presented as 1 + √((x/y)² + 1), which consolidates the variables into a single variable expression. There are also technical issues with shared links not functioning properly. Overall, the conversation highlights the challenge of understanding and simplifying mathematical concepts.

... or even one more step:
$$
\dfrac{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}{y}+1=1+\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{x}{y}\right)^2+1}
$$
which gives a nice form with only one variable expression ##z:=\dfrac{x}{y}##.

Links don't work for me either.
