    Solving for Equality with Positive a and b

    hello everyone, I have a problem, if anyone can get me started. Thanks I have to show this equality knowing that a and b are positive and they do not euqal 0: (a^{2}+a^{\frac{4}{3}}b^{\frac{2}{3}})^{\frac{1}{2}} + (b^{2}+a^{\frac{2}{3}}b^{\frac{4}{3}})^{\frac{1}{2}}...

    How many 3-digit numbers have exactly 2 identical digits?

    Hey everyone I had difficulties while solving this problem in probability. We have 4 similar boxes, and 20 similar balls. How many possible ways we can put those balls on those boxes, knowing that -the first box contains 3 balls - the second box contains 4 balls - the third box contains...

    Simplify homework problem help

    okay, here is what i got to: -2sin(B/2-C/2)cos(B/2+C/2)+2sin(B/2)cos(B/2)+2sin(C/2)cos(C/2) okay, i might replace -2sin(B/2-C/2)cos(B/2+C/2) by -sinB-sinV but that s not going to help me any better! and how can this above, be equal to 4cos(A/2)sin(B/2)sin(C/2) PS: as u might have noticed...

    Simplify homework problem help

    okay i was tryin that durin the past 20min, and i didnt get to what i want, however i got to know that tan(A/2)=(1-cos(b))/sin(b) and even with this, i didnt get closer to what i want. help would be apprciated :)

    Simplify homework problem help

    hmmm i see, thanks :) i also have to show that, in a triangle <-> A+B+C=pi ; sinB+sinC-sinA=4cos(A/2)sin(B/2)sin(C/2) if someone can just give a hint r something to start with, because this one is really confusing me! :confused: thanks!

    Simplify homework problem help

    ok here, i simply expanded the sin(b-c) and sin(c-a) and sin(a-b) and finally i got: sin(a)*(sin(b)cos(c)-sin(c)cos(b))+sin(b)*(sin(c)cos(a)-sin(a)cos(c))+sin(c)*(sin(a)cos(b)-sin(b)cos(a)) and i still expand that to get...

    Simplify homework problem help

    hello i have to simplify this : sin(a)sin(b-c) + sin(b)sin(c-a) + sin(c)sin(a-b) I did simplify it and I got it equal to zero. But my problem is, I did too many steps in order to do that. Does anyone have a shorter way to simplify that ?? thx!

    What Is the Angle Between the Clock Hands at 11:12 AM?

    okay! so, i had an exercice that say: it's 11:12am, what s the angle between the two switches? the problem here that stopped me from solvin that is when its like 11:12, the first switch, is not at 11am but it s slightly after that! :confused: i am confused! :frown: any help is apprecied
