OpenStudy (owlfred):

Hoot! You just asked your first question! Hang tight while I find people to answer it for you. You can thank people who give you good answers by clicking the 'Good Answer' button on the right!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

who me? sorry about that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i do not understand Surds in general

OpenStudy (anonymous):

give us an example and we will try to explain it to u...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ABXY and CDYX next to each other is teh shape at question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AB = p and AY q (both of them with arrows pointing right)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find in terms of p and q, expressions for : BX ( arrow pointing right)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

BX( arrow right) = q( arrow right) - p( arrow right)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't understand how that works out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the answer right ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lemme check

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope, answer is Q

OpenStudy (anonymous):

* q

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whts this ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, that's what the answer book says , the answer is q

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh ya srry . its just q( arrow right) draw the diagram and see that bx(vector ) is same as AY(vector) in magnitude and direction..... ( that is going upwards)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I see I think i get it now, book sucks at description, i'll try a random question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k. do that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, so a quick question, in the magnitude and direction is Larger and diagonal (respectively speaking) what to do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

pardon?? i dont get it . plss be clear...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My bad again on the same diagram, we're going from A-> X now, what do we do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(A->X)=(A->B)+(B->X)=p( right)+q(right)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so A--> D would be AY + AY?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh??? A->D ?????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 Squares ABXY And CDYX, i'm sorry, it's hard to describe vector questions with text

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks, i have gotten the hang of this
