    CASIO fx-8200 AU - new calculator coming next year.

    So what would a better rule be? One that relates to the position on the number line. In the middle or above, round up. Below the middle, round down. And this can be illustrated on the fx-92B Secondaire (but not fx-8200 AU or most of the other emulators): \text{And from }this\text{ rule we...

    CASIO fx-8200 AU - new calculator coming next year.

    Here's a thing you can do with the fx-8200 AU for recurring decimals. First let's do it without the calculator. Here are the rules in the Year 7 Cambridge: \text{So applying these rules to }0.14\dot{9}\text{ rounded to 1 decimal place we get } 0.1 \text{It's an example where these rules don't...

    CASIO fx-8200 AU - new calculator coming next year.

    I think the really big improvements are in statistics and probability distributions. For example, - All the stats at once instead of finding each one individually definitely saves time - Ability to do inverse normal distribution isn't even a thing on the older calculators I get that as with...

    what's the hardest question you've ever seen??

    Maybe we can look at other things like this: Prove or disprove: \text{For any set }\Bbb X\text{ such that }\Bbb Z \subset\Bbb X \subset\Bbb R\text{ there is either a 1-1 correspondence \text{between }\Bbb Z\text{ and }\Bbb X\text{ or there is a 1-1 correspondence between }\Bbb X\text{ and...

    what's the hardest question you've ever seen??

    Maybe this one. Prove the Riemann hypothesis: The Riemann zeta function has its zeros only at the negative even integers and complex numbers with real part ½: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_hypothesis

    An evaluation

    There are of course other methods, some listed here: https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/2991542/proving-cos-frac2-pi7-cos-frac4-pi7-cos-frac6-pi7-frac12 I suspect there is more to the question yellowhighlighterr didn't put there. It is unlikely such question would be asked unscaffolded.

    Note this method can be generalised to establish \sum\limits_{k=1}^n\cos\left(\frac{2k\pi}{2n+1}\right)=-\frac12

    Here is a quicker way: \textstyle\int_0^\pi\ln(-2ie^{ix}\sin x)\ \!dx=\frac{i}{2}[\text{Li}_2(e^{2ix})]_0^\pi=0\text{ where Li}_2\text{ is the dilogarithm function} \text{However} \begin{aligned}\textstyle\int_0^\pi\ln(-2ie^{ix}\sin x)dx&=\textstyle\int_0^\pi(\ln2+\ln(-i)+ix+\ln(\sin x))\...
