AI Thread Summary
An 11th-grade student seeks help with 30 math problems, having only completed 17 and needing step-by-step solutions for submission within four days. The problems cover various topics, including harmonic progressions, geometric properties, and trigonometric identities. Forum participants emphasize the importance of understanding the material rather than simply obtaining answers, suggesting the student provide their attempted solutions for targeted assistance. They stress that the student's teacher expects them to demonstrate comprehension of the concepts learned in class. The discussion highlights the balance between seeking help and the responsibility to engage with the material independently.

Please help me i am in 11th grade. These were the questions asked to me in a test and after the test was over the teacher asked to sumbmit the complete set of solutions for the test in four days time. There were total thirty questions I was able to do seventeen. I need help please or i will be mincemeat...


I need the step-by-step solutions of the following problems and theorums, axioms used if any.

although i have the correct answers...I want the Working.

well... here goes...:


1] If the expression mx - 1 + 1/x is non negative for all positive real x, then the minimum value of m must be:
(a) -1/2 (b) 0 (c) 1/4 (d) 1/2


2] If a,b,c are the pth,qth,rth terms of an Harmonic Progression, then
ab(p-q) + bc(q-r) +ca(r-p) equals
(a) 1 (b) -1 (c) 0 (d) None


3] Given p Arithmatic Progressions, each of which consists of n terms. If their 1st terms are 1,2,3,...,p and common differences are 1,3,5,...,(2p-1)
respectively, then the sum of the terms of all the progressions is:
(a) np(np+1)/2 (b) n(p+1)/2 (c) np(n+1) (d)None


4] the straight line y = x + 2 rotates about a point where it cuts the x-axis and becomes perpendicular to ax + by + c = 0 then its eqn is
(a) ax + by + 2a =0 (b) ax - by - 2a = 0
(c) bx + ay - 2b =0 (d) ay - bx + 2b = 0


5] Points on the line x + y = 4 that lie at a unit distanance from 4x+3y-10=0 are
(a) (3,1)&(7,11) (b) (-3,7)&(2,2) (c) (-3,7)&(-7,11) (d)none of these


6] two lines are given by (x-2y)2 + c(x-2y) = 0 the value of c such that the distance between them is 3 is
(a) c=0 (b) c=±v3


7] drawn from the origin are two mutually perpendicular lines forming an isoceles triangle together with the st. line 2x+y=a then the area of the triangle is
a) (a^2)/2 b) (a^2)/3 c) (a^2)/5


8] The minimum value of (sin a)^2 + (cos a)^4 is
a) 3/8 b) 1 c) 3/4


9]Value of sin 10° + sin 50° + sin 70° =
a) 1/16 b) 1/8


10] If
cos² A + cos² B + cos² C = 1 then triangle ABC is
a) equilateral triangle b)right triangle c)isoseles triangle


11]in a triangle ABC, tan(A/2), tan(B/2), tan(C/2) are in harmonic progression. then cot(A/2)*cot(C/2) is
a)1 b) 2 c) 3


12] If a lies in the third quadrant, then v4(sin a)^4 + (sin a)^2 + 4 [cos{45°+(a/2)}]^2 equals
a)1 b)2 c)-2


13] If a and ß are two distinct roots of a(tan x)+b(sec x)=c, then tan(a+ß) equals
(a) (a^2 - c^2)/(a^2 + c^2) (b) (a^2 + c^2)/(a^2 - c^2)
(c) 2ac/(a^2 + c^2) (d) 2ac//(a^2 - c^2)




correct answers
1] c
2] c
3] a
4] d
5] a
6] b
7] c
8] c
9] a or b(not sure)
10] b or c(not sure)
11] c
12] b
13] d

IMHO, it's time for you to do some reading:
https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=28 or https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=94381
Now, what have you done? Post your work, and where you get stuck, so that we can help (we do not show you step-by-step solution) you.
 
Surely, you know better than to begin asking for help by insulting the people you are asking? Perhaps you don't realize that that is exactly what you are doing when you say: "I need the step-by-step solutions of the following problems and theorums, axioms used if any."

Your teacher expects you to to do these problems. They were given as a test- which indicates that your teacher thinks you ought to be able to do them without using your textbook in a limited time. Now you are being given a chance to do them over 4 days using your textbook. You surely ought to be able to do them yourself.

Perhaps you need hints or corrections where you have gone wrong. Fine, show us what you have done, what you do understand about these problems, where you have difficulty and we will be happy to help you. However, none of us here dislikes either you or your teacher enough to try to tricky your teacher into thinking you have learned something when you have not. It is insulting for you to suggest that we would.
