See Also [[Maths - Proof by Contradiction]]S Flashcards When proving irrationality of a surd $x$, what is the setup?? Assume $x = \frac{a}{b}$ where $a$ and $b$ are integers that do not share any factors. Why can’t $a$ and $b$ share any factors when proving the irrationality of a surd?? Because it would mean you could simplify $\frac{a}{b}$. How do you get rid the square root over $x$ when proving it’s irrationality?

Combining Vectors Combining Vectors is [[Physics - Resolving Vectors]]S in reverse, or vice-versa. What is the golden rule for adding vectors?? Always add vectors tip to tail. Combine these vectors, a boat moving $10kmh^{-1}$ across a $10kmh^{-1}$ flowing river PHOTO?? PHOTO $\sqrt{10^2 + 10^2} = \sqrt{200} = 10\sqrt{2} kmh^{-1}$ When can Pythagoras be used to combine two vectors?? When two known forces are at a right angle. How can you work out the angle between two forces?

How do you find the intersection for something like $y = 5 - 2x$ and $y = 3x^2 + 5x - 3$?? Set them equal to each other and simplify. $5 - 2x = 3x^2 + 5x - 3$ What’s the most amount of times a straight line and a quadratic could intersect?? What’s the least amoount of times a straight line and a quadratic could intersect?? A line of the form $y = mx+c$ with one point of intersection with a quadratic has what relationship?

What is a linear model?? A model which works with a straight line. When creating a linear model, how do you need to change $y = mx + c$?? Instead of using $y$ and $x$ you use variables which reflect the context. What is the general ice cream sales equation?? $\text{ice cream sales} = m \times \text{weather} + c$ What’s a common critique of a linear model?? It predicts impossible negative values. What does the gradient in a linear model reflect?

When working with triangles in a co-ordinate system, the most important step is?? Drawing a sketch. How can you prove that a triangle is right-angled in a co-ordinate system?? Find the gradients of the lines and prove two are perpindicular. How can you prove two lines are perpindicular?? Show their gradients multiply to give $-1$. How can you prove that a triangle is isoceles in a co-ordinate system?? Show two lines have the same length.

The sole purpose of this entry being seperate is so that I don’t have to re-load the other [[Further Maths - Series]]S into Anki because it’s got some formatting issues that are down to underscores inside Latex formulas being recognised as italics rather than subscripts. How can you rewrite $\sum^{n}_{r=1} (r+4)^3$?? $$ \sum^{n+4}{r=1} r^3 + \sum{4}{r=1} r^3 $$ Why can you rewrite $\sum^{n}_{r=1} (r+4)^3$?? Because it’s the same as a $r^3$ sequence starting at $5$.
