Yeah I can't lie, there is no calling this a daily challenge now.

Anyhow, have a go at proving this, I don't want any unrigorous "imagine zooming in until the line is straight" nonsense.

Difficulty: not a lot

Would appreciate if u put ur proofs or attempts below, I got a proof but it's like kinda mediocre.

 

In light of events following the previous post, it is almost certain shelling of the UN peacekeepers camp was not an accident from attacking nearby hezbollah tunnels.

The UN forces are the target of the Israeli army, as bulldozers usually dont accidentally show up in a warzone to specifically bulldoze a UN watch tower.

Oct 20 (Reuters) - The U.N. peacekeeping force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) said in a statement that an Israeli army bulldozer had demolished an observation tower and perimeter fence of a U.N. position in Marwahin in southern Lebanon on Sunday.

That would maybe make sense.

Yeah I think the claim might be true, but still there are probably ways to not hit a UN base of fixed location while carrying out an offensive.

This detail wasn't here this morning, the article is gradually edited as more info surfaced. See the url for the original title.

 

Their reasonings isn't making the slightest sense at all, so unless the article forgot to mention something entirely, this is rediculous.

proprietary, btw

 

all nostalgia aside, arras.io is so much better

Hint:

spoilerTry out the following tasks before going for the big one

  1. Draw a circle of radius a.
  2. Animate a point on circle a, let that be your rotational speed.
  3. Animate a circle rolling horizontally (along the x axis) at your rotational speed.
  4. Animate a point on that horizontally rolling circle.

You should now have an idea on how to draw a hypocycloid.

 

Draw a hypocycloid using a graphical calculator (such as Desmos or Geogebra).

Your hypocycloid should include

  • Inner circle of radius `a
  • Outer circle of radius `b
  • As time t increases the point on the inner circle should trace out the pattern, you can animate the graph using t.

Below is the link to a Desmos graph:

Hint

spoilerIf you are studying the algorithm, you are doing it wrong


Solution: https://gmtex.siri.sh/fs/1/School/Extra/Maths/Qotd%20solutions/2024-08-04_extended-euclid.html

spoiler

 
  • Given n and m are coprime, show that there exist integer n' such that nn' mod m=1.
  • The extended Euclid's algorithm is given below without proof, which may be useful in your proof.

(I'm too lazy to type out the algorithm again, so look at the image yourself)

  • Prove that z(x mod y) = (zx) mod (zy)

Be rigorous

(trust me bro im gonna daily post trust me bro)

EDIT: assume all variables are integers

because I have never heard of this argument before, ever. most media's stance on politics is "their party bad our party good", but the "all the parties are pretty hypocritical" argument has never been explored properly, because its depressing and nobody likes it.

yup thats the intended solution, im not really familiar with taylor series yet, but maybe for a person who knows taylor series would be able to see it right away

[–] siriusmart@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Hint

spoilerThe solution I have in mind is related to the Taylor series


Hint 2

spoilerIt converges to -ln(2), but why

Here's a rly cool solution from stackexchange, which blows my average geometric solution out of the water
