In our base math course we had this question: if $a,b > 1$ then $1+ab > a+b$? There was also a hint at the bottom of the question to look at this ex...
What is an intuitive meaning of the null space of a matrix? Why is it useful? I'm not looking for textbook definitions. My textbook gives me the defi...
Use DeMoivre's formula to derive the trig identities $$\begin{cases} \cos3\theta = (\cos\theta)^2-3\cos\theta(\sin\theta)^2\\ \sin3\theta=3(\cos\thet...
Since the last angle is $77^\circ,$ can I solve this by using law of sines? This would lead us to: $$\frac{519}{\sin\left(77^\circ\right)}=\frac{190+x}{\s...
The definition for uniform continuity for a function $f : X \to Y$ is that for all $\epsilon > 0$, there exists a $\delta > 0$ such that $d_Y(f(p),f...
