for n = 4, we can form a square with integral coordinates of all the vertices.

 

Prove that the four projections of vertex A of the triangle ABC onto the exterior
and interior angle bisectors of  B and  C are collinear.

in the given diagram red lines are angle bisectors (interior and exterior)and X, Y, Z, W are the projections of A on these red lines

by angle bisector property all these 4 points will lie on the line BC (either externally or internally) so these points will be in a line

If cos-1x - cos-1(y/2) = α , then 4x2-4xycosα + y2 is equal to ?

according to the given condition 

cos-1x  =  cos-1(y/2)  +  a

so x = cos ( cos-1y/2   +  a)

so x = y/2 cosa  -  sin cos-1y/2 + sina

so x = y/2 cosa  - [1-(y2/4)]1/2 + sina

so x - sina - y/2 cosa = -[1-(y2/4)]1/2

now square both side and solve

 

If  sin-1a + sin-1b+ sin-1c = π , then the value of { a√(1-a2) + b√(1-b2) + c√(1-c2)}

Joshi sir comment

let sin-1a = A ,    sin-1b = B    and    sin-1c= C 

so  { a√(1-a2) + b√(1-b2) + c√(1-c2)}   = sinAcosA + sinBcosB + sinCcosC   = 1/2 (sin2A+sin2B+sin2C)

                                                                                                          = 1/2 (4sinAsinBsinC)

                                                                                                          = 2abc

These are the graphs for cot-1x and cos-1x   

violet for cos and green for cot

from graph it is clear that cos part with integer function will be 0 for cos1<x≤1

and cot part with integer function will be 0 for cot1<x<∞

so answer will be cot1<x≤1

this is a special type of differential equation in which p = dy/dx

its solution will be y = cx+(a/c)  here c is a constant

on applying p = dy/dx

(ydx-xdy)/dx = (xdx+ydy)/dx

or ydx-xdy = xdx+ydy

or dy/dx = (y-x)/(y+x)

now it is homogeneous

rank(A) = 1 
det(A) = 0 
trace(A) = 0 
The matrix is not symmetric. 

characteristic polynomial of the given matrix is x3 

companion matrix of the polynomial (x+1)2

 0     1

-1    -2

 

 

A real symmetric matrix of rank r is congruent over the field of real numbers to a canonical matrix

The integer p is called the index of the matrix and s = p - (r - p) is called the signature.

 

The index of a symmetric or Hermitian matrix is the number of positive elements when it is transformed to a diagonal matrix. The signature is the number of positive terms diminished by the number of negative terms and the total number of nonzero terms is the rank.


now solve it

A regular hexagon and a regular dodecagon are inscribed in the same circle. if the side of the dodecagon is (√3-1), then the side of hexagon is

Joshi sir comment

for dodecagon sin(2π/40) = (a/2)/r     so    r = (a/2)/ sin(π/20)

now for hexagon sin(2π/12) = (x/2)/r       so x/2 = r sin(π/6)  =  (a/2) sin(π/6)/ sin(π/20)  

so  x  = (√3-1) (1/2) / ((√5-1)/4)                      here sin(π/20) = (√5-1)/4

or x = 4(√3-1) / 2(√5-1) 

now solve it for further simplification

What are trigonometrical identities?

Joshi sir comment

sin2A + cos2A = 1 and two similar formulae in terms of tanA, cotA, secA and cosecA 

these are identities because these are true for all values of A
