Does anybody want to be part of the math club? No commitments involved.

Sure thing, sign me up!

I win by default if nobody else shows up.

what is that?! explain more.

Oh, I'll change the name of the topic from "Math" to "The Maths Club (TMC)". You can continue to just post regularly, but I felt an informal club would be a good idea.

Hey people.  I need help with trig applications = word problems.  They are so annoying.

I am unsure if I could help you, but how may I help you?

Well, no one can help if you do not post something.

Is Art Related to Maths?

Is Art Related to Maths?

Well, yes. Maths is art. Literally. All of the different strokes of a painting can be modelled by a skilled mathematician. If one wanted to create sculptures, it could also be done in the 3 dimensional coordinate plane.

 

Nevertheless, math is more certain than art and art is highly subjective I think..

That doesn't mean math is art. An artist could draw every math equation known to man, but that won't make art become math.

No, not in that sense. To put it in a somewhat blunt manner, artists do what mathematicians can without any idea about what they do while mathematicians can do everything artists do knowing exactly what they are doing.

 

In my opinion, Math is easier and better than art. I can't even draw a straight line with a ruler, so that might be why :P .

Maybe in programming :D

I just understood why derrivatives work the way they do and it is like I was living under a rock this whole time! Thanks everyone for helping me on the way!

Write 2x^2 + 9x + 1 in the form a(x + m)^2 + n. 

 

Hence solve 2x^2 + 9x + 1 = 0, leave your answer in surd form.

(Completing the square <- The method that "should" be used)

If I'm to be honest, I like completing the square much more than solving for zero to get the vertex form of a quadratic equation. It really isn't as tedious, or really complicated at all. I'm not even sure what you're saying by "solve for zero to find vertex form", how does that work? I'm curious.

 

The only problem I've ever consistently had with that method is figuring out which two numbers would add up to b yet multiply to ac. That I have to use a website for, it's pretty neat:

As much as I hate completing the square when a isn't 1, I disagree. If you're the type of person that loves memorizing equations, I'd suggest you paint the identities on the inside of your eyes, helps save time.

 

Usually after a "Complete the square" question, in my specification, they ask "Hence solve" or "Otherwise, solve the equation". It simply means use the completed square to solve the equation given, and giving your answer in surd form makes it easier (in my opinion), you aren't asked to manipulate them. The unknown only appears once so you can solve it using inverse operations. Have a go at the question, there are different methods which don't require you to figure out which numbers go where. I'll show you my method after people attempt the question, would hate to ruin this... great monolith of art. Good Luck!

Ah well. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion lol, if it works for you, awesome.

 

Not familiar with surds, I'm not really that high in the curriculum. Perhaps that explains why I prefer completing the square :P

As an incoming engineering major, that was all I learned from high school calc.
