Problem: In the figure below, $E$ is the midpoint of the arc $ABEC$ and the segment $ED$ is perpendicular to the chord $BC$ at $D$. If the length of the chord $AB$ is $\mathbf{\ell_1} $, and that of the segment $BD$ is $\mathbf{\ell_2} $, determine the length of $DC$ in terms of $\mathbf{\ell_1, \ell_2} $. […]
Problem: Find all real solutions of the equation $sin^{5}x+cos^{3}x=1$ . Discussion: Teacher: Notice that $|\sin x| \leq 1 , |\cos x | \leq 1 $ . So if you raise $\sin x$ and $\cos x$ to higher powers you necessarily lower the value. Take for example the number $\frac{1}{2}$. If you raise that to the […]
