    Lokema Shutdown wenawa

    You can cover the entire Globe with a few satellites. But these have to be stationed high above the earth, in contrast with the LEO satellites (Low Earth Orbit) The bottleneck is the current RF Technologies. New developments in Ku-band and Ka-band offer some high data rates. But wait till the...

    Oceans of Water on Mars

    But far too deep to tap. Geophysicists have found evidence for a large underground reservoir of liquid water — enough to fill oceans on the planet’s surface. The data from NASA’s Insight lander allowed the scientists to estimate that the amount of groundwater could cover the entire planet to a...

    Can anyone simplify Tan^-1 (Tan 50 * Tan 10)/ Tan20 ?.... More on this... another method using Feynman's Morrie's Law. Feynman was told about this by a childhood friend Morrie. It's the identity cos(20). cos(40). cos(80) = 1/8 A similar identity for the sines exist and it's...

    Yes... That's why the trigonometric method was used. You can't proceed with the existing diagram. You need to add some more to it to proceed.

    Of course there should be a geometrical proof. But surely needs an additional construction of some sort.

    There are two really- for Tan(3x) and Cot(3x) The secod one is less known, otherwise it offers the answer straight away by letting x = 20

    Can anyone simplify Tan^-1 (Tan 50 * Tan 10)/ Tan20 ? Since nobody answered this is the solution. So the inverse tan of the expression is exactly 30 degrees. @dilann please note. (Equations entered using iMathEQ)

    Can anyone simplify Tan^-1 (Tan 50 * Tan 10)/ Tan20 ? Would it help if you note that 50 = 30 + 20 & 10 = 30 - 20 (y)

    Nobody provided the answers for dividing the trapezoid. Dividing the trapezoid by a vertical line is easy. Draw a line connecting the midpoints of the two non-parallel edges. Find the mid point of this line. Now draw a vertical line through this point. Dividing it by a parallel line is a bit...

    This is correct .. exactly what my son provided as the solution. I asked him to simplify this further, he just said you do.. use Mathematica or something. :ROFLMAO: Can anyone simplify Tan^-1 (Tan 50 * Tan 10)/ Tan20 ?

    Plane crash and He missed it

    Ice and these type of aircraft is not a healthy mix. Generally Turboprosp and other propeller driven aircraft are more prone to icing induced wing stall than are large turbo-jets, due to the lower altitudes and speeds of operation and the relative aerodynamic degradation due to ice accretion...
