No shit so what's the value of z?

I'm looking for the angle.


As he said, OE = OD, since they're radii.

But there's another important radius that we need to consider!

OF is a radius as well, and of course, it's congruent to OE and OD. But with that, we just made two isosceles triangles. And we know that the opposite angles are congruent on isosceles triangles.

Hence, angle ODF is congruent to angle OFD. And we can quickly find what angle ODE is by noting that triangle ODE is isosceles as well (x + x + 122 = 180 —> x = 29). That means that angles ODF and OEF are (z + 29), and angle DEF is 2(z + 29).

The sum of angles in a quadrilateral is always 360 (two triangles = 180*2 = 360).

Thus, we must solve for z: 122 + (z+29) + (z+29) + 2(z+29) = 360 —> 4(z+29) = 238 —-> z+29 = 59.5 —> z = 30.5 degrees.

Edit: Yes, I know I was sloppy with my "congruent" and "equal" terminology, but I hope I conveyed my point effectively.

These are differences of two cubes.

In general, a^3 - b^3 = (a-b)(a^2 + ab + b^2).

So, in your cases, 64 = 16*4 = 4^3, 8 = 2^3.

Thus, 64 - a^3 = 4^3 - a^3 = (4 - a)(4^2 + 4a + a^2) = (4-a)(16 + 4a + a^2).

1 - x^3 = 1^3 - x^3 = (1-x)(1^2 + 1*x + x^2) = (1-x)(1 + x + x^2).

8 - x^3 = 2^3 - x^3 = (2-x)(2^2 + 2x + x^2) = (2-x)(4 + 2x + x^2).

64x^3 - 125y^3 = (4x)^3 - (5y)^3 = (4x - 5y)(16x^2 + 20xy + 25y^2).

216x^3 -125y^3 = (6x)^3 - (5y)^3 = (6x - 5y)(36x^2 + 30xy + 25y^2).

8 - y^3 is exactly the same as the one with x, but in this case, it's just a y.

Remember that a^6 = (a^2)^3 (multiply exponents like that).

Thus, (x^6)(y^6) - 1 = ((xy)^2)^3 - 1^3 = ((xy)^2 - 1)((xy)^4 + (xy)^2 + 1).

We can factor that further by using the difference of two squares on the first factor:

((xy)^2 - 1) = (xy + 1)(xy - 1) —> finally, (xy + 1)(xy - 1)(x^4 y^4 + x^2 y^2 + 1).

Use the same reasoning for the second one.

Yeah, post it here, and I'll do the whole thing.

(Please, don't–but I'll help with some questions if necessary lol)

He thinks you're mixing up pot "trajectory" and pot "velocity."

If that's your homework, then there's not a single person in the world who has passed that class.
