#ATTENDANCE QUIZ for Lecture 1 of Math251(Dr. Z.) #EMAIL RIGHT AFTER CLASS (OR RIGHT AFTER YOU WATCHED THE VIDEO) THE EDITED VERSION OF #THIS .txt FILE (WITH YOUR ANSWERS) #TO: #DrZcalc3@gmail.com #Subject: q1 #with an ATTACHMENT CALLED: #q1FirstLast.txt #(e.g. q1DoronZeilberger.txt) #ANSWERS TO RANDOM FACTS IN THE LECTURE # A. ACCORDING TO Dr. Z. THE TOP THREE SCIENTISTS OF ALL TIME ARE: Archimedes, Newton, Einstein # B. WHAT BRANCH OF AI USES Multivariable calculus?: Deep Learning and Neural Nets are based on Multivariable calculus # C. WHAT IS THE "DISTANCE" IN SPECIAL RELATIVITY?: The "distance" in Relativity between two events (x1,y1,z1,t1) and (x2,y2,z2,t2) is sqrt ((x2-x1)^2+ (y2-y1)^2+ (z2-z1)^2- c^2*(t2-t1)^2). ##THE ACTUAL QUIZ: #1. Show that the triangle with vertices #P=[1,0,0], Q=[0,1,0], R=[0,0,1] is an equilateral triangle. #YOUR SOLUTION HERE (EXPLAIN ALL THE STEPS) #Step 1 is to check the distances from each vertex to another. #Distance of P and Q = sqrt((0-0)^2 + (1-0)^2 + (0-1)^2) = sqrt(2) #Distance of P and R = sqrt((1-0)^2 + (0-0)^2 + (0-1)^2) = sqrt(2) #Distance of Q and R = sqrt((1-0)^2 + (0-1)^2 + (0-0)^2) = sqrt(2) #Since all of these distances are sqrt(2) and therefore all equal, this means that this is an equilateral triangle since all sides are equal. #2. Determine whether the following two lines ever meet. #If they do meet, where? #r1(t)=[1,0,0]+ t*[1,2,3] #r2(t)=[0,1,0]+ t*[2,1,3] #YOUR SOLUTION HERE(EXPLAIN ALL THE STEPS) #Step 1 is to expand the equations and simplify. #r1(t) = [1, 0, 0] + [t, 2t, 3t] = [t+1, 2t, 3t] #r2(t) = [0, 1, 0] + [2t, t, 3t] = [2t, t+1, 3t] #Step 2 is to set the z, y, and x equal to each other. #[t+1=2t, 2t=t+1, 3t=3t] #Step 3 is to see if there is a consistent solution amongst all 3 equations. #[t=1, t=1, INF SOLUTIONS] #The two lines, r1(t) and r2(t), meet because they intersect at x = 1, y = 1, and z = ANYTHING.
