Use complete sentences to describe why √-1 ≠ -√1

tekilochka [14]

Well let's say that to compare these two numbers, we have to start with the definition first.

<u>D</u><u>e</u><u>f</u><u>i</u><u>n</u><u>i</u><u>t</u><u>i</u><u>o</u><u>n</u>

$\displaystyle \large{ {y}^{2} = x} \\ \displaystyle \large{ y = \pm \sqrt{x} }$

Looks like we can use any x-values right? Nope.

The value of x only applies to any positive real numbers for one reason.

As we know, any numbers time itself will result in positive. No matter the negative or positive.

<u>D</u><u>e</u><u>f</u><u>i</u><u>n</u><u>i</u><u>t</u><u>i</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u> </u><u>I</u><u>I</u>

$\displaystyle \large{ {a}^{2} = a \times a = |b| }$

Where b is the result from a×a. Let's see an example.

<u>E</u><u>x</u><u>a</u><u>m</u><u>p</u><u>l</u><u>e</u><u>s</u>

$\displaystyle \large{ {2}^{2} = 2 \times 2 = 4} \\ \displaystyle \large{ {( - 2)}^{2} = ( - 2) \times ( - 2) = | - 4| = 4}$

So basically, their counterpart or opposite still gives same value.

Then you may have a question, where does √-1 come from?

It comes from this equation:

$\displaystyle \large{ {y}^{2} = - 1}$

When we solve the quadratic equation in this like form, we square both sides to get rid of the square.

$\displaystyle \large{ \sqrt{ {y}^{2} } = \sqrt{ - 1} }$

Then where does plus-minus come from? It comes from one of Absolute Value propety.

<u>A</u><u>b</u><u>s</u><u>o</u><u>l</u><u>u</u><u>t</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>V</u><u>a</u><u>l</u><u>u</u><u>e</u><u> </u><u>P</u><u>r</u><u>o</u><u>p</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u>t</u><u>y</u><u> </u><u>I</u>

$\displaystyle \large{ \sqrt{ {x}^{2} } = |x| }$

Solving absolute value always gives the plus-minus. Therefore...

$\displaystyle \large{ y = \pm \sqrt{ - 1} }$

Then we have the square root of -1 in negative and positive. But something is not right.

As I said, any numbers time itself of numbers squared will only result in positive. So how does the equation of y^2 = -1 make sense? Simple, it doesn't.

Because why would any numbers squared result in negative? Therefore, √-1 does not exist in a real number system.

Then we have another number which is -√1. This one is simple.

It is one of the solution from the equation y^2 = 1.

$\displaystyle \large{ {y}^{2} = 1} \\ \displaystyle \large{ \sqrt{ {y}^{2} } = \sqrt{1} } \\ \displaystyle \large{ y = \pm \sqrt{1} }$

We ignore the +√1 but focus on -√1 instead. Of course, we know that numbers squared itself will result in positive. Since 1 is positive then we can say that these solutions exist in real number.

<u>C</u><u>o</u><u>n</u><u>c</u><u>l</u><u>u</u><u>s</u><u>i</u><u>o</u><u>n</u>

So what is the different? The different between two numbers is that √-1 does not exist in a real number system since any squared numbers only result in positive while -√1 is one of the solution from y^2 = 1 and exists in a real number system.

Two angles are supplementary. Which of the following equations can be used to find the value of the missing angle, x, if the oth

Natali [406]

Two angles are said to be supplementary if their sum is 180 degrees. So, if x and y are supplementary angles, the formula is

$x + y = 180$

We know that one of the angles (say x) is 98. So, the equation updates to

$98 + y = 180$

If we want to solve for the other angle, we can simply subtract 98 from both sides to get

$y = 180-98 = 82$

Questions, are all in picture, please solve

Andrews [41]

The function represents a <em>cosine</em> graph with axis at y = - 1, period of 6, and amplitude of 2.5.

<h3>How to analyze sinusoidal functions</h3>

In this question we have a <em>sinusoidal</em> function, of which we are supposed to find the following variables based on given picture:

Equation of the axis - Horizontal that represents the mean of the bounds of the function.
Period - Horizontal distance needed between two maxima or two minima.
Amplitude - Mean of the difference of the bounds of the function.
Type of sinusoidal function - The function represents either a sine or a cosine if and only if trigonometric function is continuous and bounded between - 1 and 1.

Then, we have the following results:

Equation of the axis: y = - 1
Period: 6
Amplitude: 2.5
The graph may be represented by a cosine with no <em>angular</em> phase and a sine with <em>angular</em> phase, based on the following trigonometric expression:

cos θ = sin (θ + π/2)

Triangle PQR has vertices P(–2, 6), Q(–8, 4), and R(1, –2). It is translated according to the rule (x, y) → (x – 2, y – 16).

Luden [163]

The y-value is the one on the right. Therefore, the y-value of P is 6. Following the rule, the y-value of P' is 6-16= -10.
