Math game!

ScrewYouGumby2 I think we should bring out the big guns.

I used Pascal's Triangle as my method, but the process where you expand an unknown and a constant / two unknowns to the power of whatever is called a binomial (two number) expansion. Or at least that's how it's taught in England. I get the impression that there are some differences in terminology, judging by the fact that RC called what I would call 'roots' 'zeroes'.

RC_4777 For your question I used the cubic formula and a calculator and got -3.59, 0.295±1.01i where i= sqrt(-1). Safe to say it wasn't a very fun question.

I ended up graphing RC's question, and I got a single zero of -3.6, so it's relatively consistent.

Yeah, only 1 real root. Bad question imo up your game RC.

Any idea about my question? :B

I think it's neither, not sure though. Haven't done much on trig functions yet :/

Spoiler Alert:
Secant functions are considered Even, and pay respect by reflecting across the Y-Axis

How is it even if it's 1- sec whatever, and you've translated it 1 up? Even is rotational symmetry round the origin, right?

Cubic formula Lel? 2.9x12.3

It's even in the fact that it reflects itself over the Y-Axis, or it's set parent asymptote. If the function shifts by one, so does it's period, therefore moving it's parent asymptote with it.

What is the square root of Pi squared?

Wow. I was thinking of cosec and I confused even and odd, my bad.

Pi xD
Well I'm dumb and my teacher is just getting around to teaching us circles...so xD

Find the chord of a circle in which the radius is 4 cm and the distance from the centre is 1.8 cm (just made this one up in my head).
