Here are two questions which I'm stuck on. You might like to have a go, and perhaps post the solutions. 8. In ∆ABC, angle ABC = 138° and angle ACB = 24°. Point D is on AC so that angle BDC = 60° and point E is on AB so that angle ADE = 60°. If angle DEC = x°, find the value of x. 9. Let...

Can anyone do anything with this? Simplify: n x (n – 1) x (n – 2) x ... x k x ... x 3 x 2 x 1 ----------------------------------------------------- (n – k + 1) x (n – k) x ... x 3 x 2 x 1 Thanks...

I'm working on this question at the moment. It can be done by using Newton's method. A tank in the shape of a swiss cross is made from steel less than 3 cm thick. All external dimensions are exactly 1 metre. If it takes 4000 litres of fluid to fill the tank to 100 mm from the top, what is...

We know that the literacy level of people that live in the US is not all that high. Why are people talking about either Obama or McCain as the 44th President when they will only be the 43rd? In other words, there have only been 42 presidents, including the current one. Or have I missed one?

Find x + y where x and y are non-zero solutions of the system of equations: y2x = 15x2 + 17xy + 15y2 x2y = 20x2 + 3y2 I'm fairly sure the solution is x=19 and y=95. Just don't know how to get there.

Hi everyone, I was wondering if you could help me out with a small survey? I'd like to find out what debating competitions students themselves actually enter. While schools enter plenty of competitions, I'd like to find out what competitions students personally do themselves. (If you know...
