tan(180+0)....why the angle lies in third quadrant............???why we r giving weightage to 0......

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean to say that.....tan(180+0) and tan(180-0) lie in 3rd and 2nd quadrant respectively ..why????......or u state in what quadrant they lie

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i.e.tan(180) is in which quad????????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Siddharth, its not necessary that you will have to give weightage to the 0 degree

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you don't give that "weightage" you end up with the answer -0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which is the same as 0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i m not concerned as to get correct answer........just wanna clear ma basics!!!!!!!!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

180 is not in a quadrant. It's on the x axis.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So is it clear now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope.........

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just answer taht which quadrant 180 degrees lie in?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If start on the x axis pointing in the positive x direction, and you rotate 180 degrees you will end up on the x axis pointing in the negative x direction.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It doesn't lie in a quadrant. It is on the x axis.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which quadrant is the negative x axis on?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or you can also say it lies on \[i^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cant really get....but thanx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is it that you don't understand?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i wonder if the : tan(a +- b) makes a difference with it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmmm

OpenStudy (amistre64):

probably not, but I havent ruled it out :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so u guyz are a lil confused too.......

OpenStudy (amistre64):

where did you get your "fact" that these are in quadrants?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guess the sitution is same as we define the left and right side limit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

from trigonometry....................i think so

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Siddharth you are not getting the tone of amistre

OpenStudy (amistre64):

from a guy named trigonometry? or a textbook about trigonometry :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

every angle lies in a specific quadrant and that is 4 sure!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Amistre meant that no one mentioned 180 degree lies in a quadrant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it may be bcoz amistre is a honourable man...nd i m a lad who has just started to widen his thinking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the angle 180 degree lies along the negative direction of x-axis not in a quadrant

OpenStudy (amistre64):

0 is a special number; it has odd behaviours that are not like the other numbers, therefore they = 0 line and the x = 0 line do not apply to a quadrant, they are outside of any quadrants and apart of all quadrants...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so..?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

so we cannot define the y=o axis and the x = 0 axis as part of a specific quadrant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but we must be able to judge that which quadranr does 180 lies in..........

OpenStudy (amistre64):

we must? why? it lies in the realm of the "0".. that is where it is :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no quadrant...........

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Actually the thing is obvious to those who are in contact with trigonometry for a long time. But to siddharth its like the case of georg cantor, questioning how big is infinity. Please don't take it personally, I am just joking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sid. What quadrant is the negative x axis in? If you can answer that then you have your answer for 180 degrees.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

suppose I do not have a nickel, and you do not have a nickel; why should we determine which of us has the nickel?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

i can fit infinity on the head of a pin ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sidd...the lines x = 0 and y = 0 divide the plane in four quadrants, so they are not the part of any

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Good way of speaking @uzma

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it so.....that indirectly means that all angles of the form 90n (n is an integer) are not in any of the quadrant...m i right sir..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and mam!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yessssss

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I agree

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now u got it :)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

90 is a measurement, not a place.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if the 90 gets you to the place, then you are where you are :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yahooooooo!!!!!thanx a lot guyz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

chck out 4 ma new dobt!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I must say siddharth, that these questions must never be burried in fear of being called an idiot

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You did good by asking this question, and you should carry on asking such question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

very true sir!!!!thank you....

OpenStudy (amistre64):

...and never let an answer hinder you from finding out truth :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hey guyz ...um a kind of inqsitive guy...can u tell me which country u belong..?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all u guyzzz!!!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

south of canada and north of venezula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m from pakistan

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I belong from Universe, from a planet called earth, and from one world (no country)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

if I go east, I and up back here again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well m from india....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No doubt, gautam buddhas real name can't be found elsewhere

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so u guyzz all 20+

OpenStudy (amistre64):

wasnt siddhatha the buddha prince?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"chck out 4 ma new dobt!!" have you already posted it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i m just 16(almost)........so not so much knowledgeable.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

leave this place and chck out 4 ma new doubt...
