$A=52x1y3$ is a 6 digits number
if $A$ mod 11=4
find $(x+y)$ mod 11=?

Hello.

If \ A \equiv{4 } \mod(11)

and

520103 \equiv{1 } \mod(11)

then

520183 \equiv{4 } \mod (11), \ for \ 80 \equiv{ 3} \mod(11)

Since:

1000 \equiv{10 } \mod(11)

and

10 \equiv{10 } \mod(11)

To increase it x in 1000 units is equivalent to diminish and in 10 units.

Therefore:

(x+y)=8

Regards.

A mod 11 =-(5+x+y) + (2+1+3) mod 11 = 4

so (x+y-1) mod 11 = - 4

(x+y) mod 11 = -3 or 8 to make it positive
 
Thread 'Video on imaginary numbers and some queries'
Hi, I was watching the following video. I found some points confusing. Could you please help me to understand the gaps? Thanks, in advance! Question 1: Around 4:22, the video says the following. So for those mathematicians, negative numbers didn't exist. You could subtract, that is find the difference between two positive quantities, but you couldn't have a negative answer or negative coefficients. Mathematicians were so averse to negative numbers that there was no single quadratic...
Thread 'Unit Circle Double Angle Derivations'
Here I made a terrible mistake of assuming this to be an equilateral triangle and set 2sinx=1 => x=pi/6. Although this did derive the double angle formulas it also led into a terrible mess trying to find all the combinations of sides. I must have been tired and just assumed 6x=180 and 2sinx=1. By that time, I was so mindset that I nearly scolded a person for even saying 90-x. I wonder if this is a case of biased observation that seeks to dis credit me like Jesus of Nazareth since in reality...
Thread 'Imaginary Pythagoras'
I posted this in the Lame Math thread, but it's got me thinking. Is there any validity to this? Or is it really just a mathematical trick? Naively, I see that i2 + plus 12 does equal zero2. But does this have a meaning? I know one can treat the imaginary number line as just another axis like the reals, but does that mean this does represent a triangle in the complex plane with a hypotenuse of length zero? Ibix offered a rendering of the diagram using what I assume is matrix* notation...
