What does ATx=0 means?

Does this notation means if A = [3,2;1,2;4,4], then, AT = [3,1,4;2,2,4]

and ATx [x1;x2;x3] = 0?

The nullspace of the transposed of the matrix A?

This doesn't mean anything to me. I believe it should be written ATx = 0. ATx is the product of A transpose and some vector x.

What significance is there if a question ask if it is consistent or inconsistent?
ATx = 0

ATx = 0
My guess is they're asking whether the multiplication is defined. If x ##\in## R3, and A is as you have in post 1, then Ax is not defined, but ATx is defined.
 
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...
