Do you mean how many people actually produce an answer to each question or how many people produce almost all correct answers for each question? If the latter, not many would be able to complete the test with almost completely correct answer. However I suspect there would be many who complete...

If i were to do engineering next year at unsw photovaltics was my choice of stream since electrical/computing/software are not allowed. But I think im going to stick with just plain BSc CompSci/BSc (maths) rather than BSc compsci/BE

The only one I ever used was context, its where I developed all my notes from so I guess that'd be my choice

Here are some sites i gave to my student. Dont see them helping any more than a textbook would though: http://www.acts.tinet.ie/binomialtheorem_674.html http://library.thinkquest.org/C0110248/algebra/biexpintro.htm http://hsc.csu.edu.au/maths/ext1/binomial_theorem/140/binomial.html...

haha you continue to impress me who_loves_maths. The other solution given is pretty similar to KFunk's except using tan: a + b + c = pi/2 a + b = pi/2 - c tan(a + b) = tan(pi/2 - c) tan(a + b) = 1/tan(c) (tan(a)+ tan(b))/(1 - tan(a)tan(b)) = 1/tan(c) (h/10 + h/20)/(1 -...

Yeah i agree its not the best method and probably not the process i wouldve went through (or thought of) to get the answer.

Ill give one other method now. Its not the most elegant of the two I have but it still works: Let the respective angles be a, b and c. Let h be the height and u be the 'standard unit' tan a = h/(10u) tan b = h/(20u) tan c = h/(30u) Let x = h/u tan a = x/10 -> a = arctan(x/10)...

From the looks of it I suspect it may be.

hmm its weird im 100% sure i added those along with a bunch of others from maths ext 1. I even remember them coming up at the front page under 'recently added notes.' Ill ask the admins if there could be a problem.

Nice work you got it right :) There are 2 other ways ive seen it done. Ill post other solutions tomorrow if no one else posts them first.

heh id probably be seeing you there too. Except next year ill be starting straight with 2nd year units except for discrete maths

From memory, nutrient deprivation interrupted the normal growth and division cycle of a cell, thus allowing them to 'reprogram' it with the new nucleus

grr i need to get a new router now to use wireless since my current one only supports adsl. Anyone interested in a linksys wireless g router/adsl modem, i may have to sell it if i cant find my receipt.

Im pretty sure they add soft1001 to everyone, i have it also. If you recall there were many 2nd year students on the discussion boards helping out first year students. I assume they expect the same from us.

Here is a random trig question i found in this science magazine that I think is a little different from normal. (Its not necessarily hard) Im not sure if this identity is taught, and is needed for one method of getting the answer so ill post it: tan(90 - x) = 1/tan(x) (or tan(pi/2 - x) =...

no its usyd, and 1901 is the advanced differential calculus course.

yes it was

87 = 95 in 2004 so id agree with xrtzx

haha i always make electronic versions of notes 'in case'. Its gonna be hell doing the math1902 ones though

FF: If youre interested, heres some stuff you could take a look at. Theres a proof for one form of l'Hopital's rule in the 2nd one. There may be some general spelling errors because I havent had time to look over them after I initially converted them to electronic form, but most would be ok...
