algebra
This is \(\sf \color{red}{not}\) linear algebra.
i thought it is algebra
To find the magnitude, speed, \(|\sqrt{a^2+b^2}|\), where a = 3, b = 4. Now, to finf direction, tan(\(\theta\)) = \(\frac{b}{a}\)
You don't need those \(|\) dude. \(\sqrt{\ldots }\iff |\sqrt{\ldots}|\)
magnitude = 5 m/s and direction theta = 53 degree
Hmm...that's how I remember it. But I guess I should check b4 hand next tym. Thanks @wio
and 53 degree would be northeast right????
Remember that \(|x| \iff \sqrt{x^2}\) and \(\sqrt{x} \iff |\pm \sqrt{x}|\)
Algebra is one of the broad parts of mathematics, together with number theory, geometry and analysis. For historical reasons, the word "algebra" has several related meanings in mathematics, as a single word or with qualifiers.
Algebra can essentially be considered as doing computations similar to that of arithmetic with non-numerical mathematical objects.[1] Initially, these objects represented either numbers that were not yet known (unknowns) or unspecified numbers (indeterminate or parameter), allowing one to state and prove properties that are true no matter which numbers are involved. For example, in the quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0,
IN this case \(x=-3\), \(y=-4\)\[ \tan \theta = \frac y x \implies \theta = \tan ^{-1} \left(\frac {4}{3}\right) \]
\(\huge o.O\)
Does algebra have a wee wee or a coochie?
We can start with a graph for this one, with arrows representing the two velocities... 3m/s west and 4m/s south|dw:1378455204639:dw|
