Understand the Problem: The polynomial \(x^7+x^2+1\) is divisible by (A) \(x^5-x^4+x^2-x+1\) (B) \(x^5-x^4+x^2+1\) (C) \(x^5+x^4+x^2+x+1\) (D) \(x^5-x^4+x^2+x+1\) Solution A shorter solution or approach can always exist. Think about it. If you find an alternative solution or approach, mention it in the comments. We would love to hear something different from you. Also Visit: I.S.I. & C.M.I […]
" Take care of yourself, you're not made of steel. The fire has almost gone out and it is winter. It kept me busy all night. Excuse me, I will explain it to you. You play this game, which is said to hail from China. And I tell you that what Paris needs right now […]
Pedal triangles lead to spirally similar cyclic quadrilaterals in any triangle. A half turn and dilation by 1/8 create the new quadrilateral.
30 sessions, 45 hours, a team of 6 faculty members. Cheenta is presenting a camp for Indian National Math Olympiad (leading to International Math Olympiad). We begin on 14th December 2018 and it will run up to 19th January 2019.
We fold a paper using GeoGebra and explore a problem from American Mathematical Contest
An experiment to teach percentage arithmetic, Euclidean geometry, rational and irrationals and computational software tools in an interdisciplinary manner. We extensively used GeoGebra and plan to use Python later in this sequence of discussions. The exposition is conversational (in the spirit of Tarasov's Pre-Calculus). As a method of pedagogy, dialectics is subtly employed to enhance student's grasp of the subject.
