	A tangent to a quadratic		2004-06-04
		Jem pose la question : I have a question on the tangent to a quadratic curve. Say I have a curve y = ax2 + bx + c. The gradient, using the derivative of y, at any point x on the curve is: 2ax + b right? Then, for the tangent that cuts the curve at a point x, the equation of the tangent can be: y1 = (2ax + b)x1 + d. My question is, how is the point d of this tangent determined? It is the point on the y-axis where the tangent cuts isn't it? Is there a formula for it? Penny Nom lui répond.

	Different infinities		2004-05-27
		Plober pose la question : How can I explain to a friend (in a bar, using as a pen and a paper napkin) that the integer's infinity is 'smaller' than the irrationals's one? The demo I tried was that you couldn't match the integers with the real numbers between 0 and 1 (that 0.xxxxx replacing the Nth number from a different one... that demo), but she used my argument >:| saying that you can add one to the integer's infinite, and the number I was creating was only one more... I can't think of any other way, and I KNOW the real's cardinality is greater than the integer's one Claude Tardif and Penny Nom lui répond.

	The center of a circle		2004-05-26
		Wan pose la question : I am trying to find the radius of an arc. The only things i know about the arc is all referenced from the line of tangency to the arc. on both sides i have a differnt horizontal perpendicular distance to the point of tangency. left side |-------*---------------| right side (*=point of tangency). Then i have 2 difference vertical perpendicular distance of the end points to the line of tangency. I know it sounds very bad in text but this is all i know about the arc. Can you help me find the radius? Penny Nom lui répond.

	Some trig expressions		2004-05-23
		A student pose la question : Prove: sin A + sin B = 2sin(A+B/2)cos(A-B/2) cos A - cos B = -2sin(A+B/2)sin(A-B/2) cos A + cos B = 2cos(A+B/2)cos(A-B/2) sin A - sin B = 2cos(A+B/2)sin(A+B/2) Penny Nom lui répond.
