Homework Statement


So, I have a set
S = (x, y) \in \mathbb{R} | (x and y \in \mathbb{Q}) or (x and y \notin \mathbb{Q})

I want to find
T = \mathbb{R} minus S

so I am negating this and get


T = (x, y) \in \mathbb{R} | (x or y \in \mathbb{Q}) and (x or y \notin \mathbb{Q})

which really just means that one coordinate must be rational, and the other must be irrational. Is this correct?

Thanks. I also seem to be having problems in latex getting the set complement R\S and brackets around my sets working, so sorry about that.

This seems ok!
 
yes this is correct, it follows from elementary rules of logic
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
