Well /sci/ i went full autistic and started studying integral calculus on my own; i can't do 3 things.

I managed to find alternate formulas of the revolution function surface C(x), being these two first formulas.

Let C (x) : Surface area of a revolution volume
And l (x) the arc length of a function f (x)

Pic related:
The first formula explains itself. I WOULD LOVE to know how to simplify it.

The second one was a thing i got when I was trying to find out the formula. MY Queation is how do i operate with it?

THE third one is the formula the book gave to me. How do I find out this formula?
>>
You could simplify C(x) by expressing cosine using the tangent (Use identities tan=sin/cos and sin^2+cos^2=1).

You'll get something like sqrt(1/tan arctan(dx/dy)) and the trig funcs will disappear.

Hi /sci/. I usually browse /k/ or /a/, but I thought you guys would be interested in this.

my mom's a schoolteacher, and she sent me a math problem that looked wrong to her. I confirmed that it was wrong, and this email conversation was forwarded to me. the test question writer insists that the answer key is right.

This isn't exactly a rare occurrence either. I think the test question writers are sick of dealing with me via my mom as a proxy.

Hi /sci/. I usually browse /h/ or /hm/, but I thought you goys would be interested in this.

My mommy's a overpaid babysitter, and she sent me a math problem that she couldn't figure out herself. I confirmed that it was really tough, and this email conversation was forwarded to me. The test question writer insists that he is a HUGE autist.

This is exactly a rare occurrence too. I think the test question writers are sick of fucking with me via my mommy as a proxy.

But OP hasn't asked for any help. So your response is unjustified. This is a thread where we collectively roll eyes at dumbasses. Initially, it was the author of the math problem, but now it is you as well.

If you can't do it you don't understand it enough. This is not humanities where you can just read a text and understand it.
That's a deduction that a 146 IQ person could easily devise alone.

So what's the practical purpose of an IQ test? It seems that the only reason you'd ever get one would be to boast about how great it is. Is it just another heigharchal standard, or does it hold some meaningful purpose.

So, what's /sci/'s opinion on the sauchie case?

I've always been a huge sceptic about anything that wasn't matter, but lately I've been reading a lot on the matter of mental conditions and, by extent, cases such as these. Just to make it clear, I'm not talking about ghosts, ghosts both do not make sense and have never been documented or proven in any way, but could "telepathy" or any other sort of undetected form of energy exist around us capable of changing what we do see in high enough concentrations?

Telepathy has been extensively studied repeatedly with a lot of time and funding, and yet there is still no proof that it exists. Very few things have gotten as many chances to be validated, but it has failed time and again.

The main problem with believing in telepathy is that it's testable, and it has been tested, and it has failed those tests. Telepathy is not real.

There is no such thing as "near impossible". Things either are impossible or possible. Same goes for other brainlet phrases like "almost infinite".

Can we let this stupid meme die? The majority of people are never going to be leaders or thinkers. You can't train someone to br curious and creative.
