#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 calculs?: Deep Learning and Neural Nets # C. WHAT IS THE "DISTANCE" IN SPECIAL RELATIVITY?: 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) The distance between P and Q= sqrt((Q[1]-P[1])^2+Q[2]-P[2])^2+Q[3]-P[3])^2) =sqrt(1+1+0) =sqrt2 The distance between R and Q= sqrt((Q[1]-R[1])^2+Q[2]-R[2])^2+Q[3]-R[3])^2) =sqrt(0+1+1) =sqrt2 The distance between R and P= sqrt((P[1]-R[1])^2+P[2]-R[2])^2+P[3]-R[3])^2) =sqrt(1+0+1) =sqrt2 Three distance are all: sqrt2 Therefore, P=[1,0,0], Q=[0,1,0], R=[0,0,1] is an equilateral triangle. #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) expand r1(t)=[t+1, 2t, 3t]; expand r2(t)=[2t, t+1, 3t]; expand r1(t)=r2(t): [t+1=2t, 2t=t+1, 3t=3t]; Therefore, r1(t) and r2(t) meets at t=1.
