I would like to share chapter test questions from the David Cohen Precalculus With Unit Circle Trigonometry textbook (3rd Edition) as extra practice for anyone who may be interested. Where in this website can I post precalculus chapter test questions?

You can post them here in this forum. One thing though, if these posts are to be a valuable asset for other readers, they should be done using $\LaTeX$ for maximum readability. :D

I am not familiar with LaTex. I do not have a computer.

There are quite a few good tutorials online and here at MHB. We also have tools in place to help generate $\LaTeX$ code, and preview it live.

I don't think you have to have a laptop/PC to use $\LaTeX$. It likely depends on your mobile device, and I don't use those so I'm really not the one to be commenting on that...I just know others here use mobile devices and post $\LaTeX$.
 
If your device simply will not allow you to post $\LaTeX$, then as far as I'm concerned you can use plain text. I may, as I have time, edit your posts to use $\LaTeX$ (but I can't make any definite promises on that). :D

Not all questions require LaTex for easy reading. For example, most word problems need no LaTex.
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
Fermat's Last Theorem has long been one of the most famous mathematical problems, and is now one of the most famous theorems. It simply states that the equation $$ a^n+b^n=c^n $$ has no solutions with positive integers if ##n>2.## It was named after Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665). The problem itself stems from the book Arithmetica by Diophantus of Alexandria. It gained popularity because Fermat noted in his copy "Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos, et...
I'm interested to know whether the equation $$1 = 2 - \frac{1}{2 - \frac{1}{2 - \cdots}}$$ is true or not. It can be shown easily that if the continued fraction converges, it cannot converge to anything else than 1. It seems that if the continued fraction converges, the convergence is very slow. The apparent slowness of the convergence makes it difficult to estimate the presence of true convergence numerically. At the moment I don't know whether this converges or not.
