    Sets Trig
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around solving three challenging math problems, including one related to sets and two involving trigonometry. Participants express frustration with the complexity of the first problem and seek assistance from others. A suggestion is made to rewrite the trigonometric expressions using double angle formulas to simplify the equation sin(3x)/(1 + cos(3x)) = tan(3x/2). The conversation highlights the difficulty in finding the correct mathematical symbols and the desire to test new tools for solving these problems. Overall, the thread emphasizes collaboration in tackling tricky math questions.

Hi, I just have three question and I'm wondering how to solve them.

The first one is a sets question and it is literally infuriating trying to even contemplate it. I've asked many other people how to solve and no one knows how. I was hoping there would be a few geniuses that solve it here

The other 2 are just trig questions. I have a feeling at the back of my head that I knew how to solve them, but that's it.

Hi guynoone! :smile:

Why couldn't you just type them out? :confused:

To show that sin3x/(1 + cos3x) = tyan(3x/2), just write sin3x and cos3x in terms of functons of 3x/2. :smile:

I hate looking for the correct symbols. I also wanted to test out the new scanner :)

Sorry, my mind's a bit fuzzy. What happens to that +1 then?
 
Why don't you try what he suggested and then see what happens?
sin(3x)= sin(2(3x/2) and cos(3x)= cos(2(3x/2) so tiny-tim is suggesting you use the double angle formulas.
 
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
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...
