How to do Division of Radicals

Introduction:
                  Radical numbers are in the form of square root. The square root present in the radical number may be either a cubic root or square root. The radical number is present inside each square root or cubic root. The index number is present outside the each square root or cubic root. For example, `root(3)(4)` is known as the radicals.

Example for How to do Division of Radicals

Example 1: How to divide the following radicals, `1/(sqrt(5) - sqrt(6))` .
Solution:
Step 1: Write the given radicals for division, we get,
`1/(sqrt(5) - sqrt(6))`
Step 2: The next step, for performing division , we have to take the conjugate. That means, the denominator term is taken and the sign of the denominator is changed. Then we have multiply the given radicals in both the numerator and denominator.
`1/(sqrt(5) - sqrt(6))`  `xx`  `(sqrt(5) + sqrt(6))/(sqrt(5) + sqrt(6))`
Step 3: By simplifying the above expression, we get,
`(sqrt(5) + sqrt(6))/(sqrt(5)^2 - sqrt(6)^2)`
`(sqrt(5) + sqrt(6))/(5 - 6)`
`(sqrt(5) + sqrt(6))/ - 1`
= - (  `sqrt(5) + sqrt(6)` )
       = - `sqrt(5)`  - `sqrt(6)`
This is the required solution for the division of radicals.



Explain Trigonometry Angles

Introduction:   

  Trigonometry is that branch of mathematics which deals with the measurement of sides and angles of triangles and to similar triangles. 
Angles:

     An angle is an amount of rotation of a half-line (or ray) in a plane about its end point from an initial position to a terminal position. The important terms are: Measurement of angle, Positive and Negative angles, Lines at right angles, Quadrants, Angle in standard position. 

Measurement of Angles:
     To measure an angle we shall use two kinds of units, the degree unit and the radian unit.
     A degree(Sexagesimal system) is defined to be an angle formed by half-line (or a ray) rotated about its end point (1/360) of a complete revolution.
     Types of Angles: Acute angle, Obtuse angle, Right angle, Reflex angle, A straight angle. 
Radian Measure(Circular System)
     A radian is the measuring angles at the centre of a circle subtended by an arc, whose arc length and arc length formula is equal to the radius of the circle.

Finding Percentage Difference

Introduction:

            Percentage is expressing any number in a fraction with the denominator as 100. The symbol used for the percentage is ‘%’. Percentage difference is defined as the comparing a previous value to the new value and the percent difference.
Formula for percentage difference Calculator = [Previous value – new value] / 100

Word Problem on Find Percentage Difference:

David lived in a United States of America. When David left the country the population was 920 million. David recently heard that the population has decreased by 6%. What is the present population?
Solution:
Find out the decrease percentage 920*6/100 = 5520/100 = 55.2 million
      Then the new population is old population minus the decreased population
      920-55.2 = 864.8 million
      The population is now 864.8 million

Hope you liked the above explanation. You can learn more on Percentage difference formula through online. Please leave your comments, if you have any doubts.

Explain Statistical Graphical Representation

Introduction on Statistics and Graphical Representation:

           Statistics is about collection of information and its presentation and about drawing inferences from these. We come across facts and figures in the newspapers, Television and the radio. The numerical figures are called "the data". If we have to draw good inferences from information collected, it has to be presented properly.
             The graphical representation of data makes the reading more interesting, less time-consuming and easily understandable. The disadvantage of graphical presentation is that it lacks details and is less accurate. In our study, we have the following graphs: 1. Bar Graphs 2. Pie Charts 3. Frequency Polygon 4. Histogram.

Statistical Graphical Representation:

         The scientific methods of collection of data, its classification and application to commerce and everyday life is called statistics. A list of some important terms as follows: (i) ungrouped data (ii) tabulation of data (iii) range (iv) frequency (v) frequency distribution (vi) tally (vii) inclusive type of grouped frequency distribution (viii) exclusive type of grouped frequency distribution (ix) lower limit and actual lower limit (x) upper limit and actual upper limit (xi) class size or class width (xii) class mark or class mid-interval (xiii) Variables (xiv) Continuous Variables (xv) Discrete Variables.

Radian Measure Circle

Introduction: 
        In mathematics the radian is a measure of angle in circle. If we take a small arc on the circumference then an angle produced by arc is called radian of circle. The radian is said to 1 radian if the radius and the arc are  equal. For measure the angle of the circle this radian is very useful. In this article we are going to see about the measurement of radian.

Radian Measure Circle:

Formula for radian measure in circle:
Radian= Subtended arc length/ Radius length.
Consider an arc length is 's' and radius 'r' and radian is θ.
θ = `s/r` 
Unit circle:
Steps for making the measurement the 1 radian:
  • Draw a circle with center as a vertex.
  • Draw one arc on its circumference and it is equal to the radius of the circle.
  • Now the angle at a center is considered as 1 radian.
For unit circle the radius is 1, hence the formula for radian is,
θ=`s/1` =s
For unit circle the radian is as the same value of arc length.
Measure of 1 radian in a circle:
If the radius of the circle is equal to the arc length then the value of radian is 1.
Radian=θ=`r/r`=1
Representation of unit circle:
if arc length is equal to the  radius then measured angle is called 1 radian

How to solve Prime Factorization

Definition of Prime Factorization:


                  Prime factorization is the process in which we write a composite number as a product of its prime factors.
Prime Number
  • A Prime Number is a whole integer, greater than 1, which can be divided only by 1 and itself.
  • The examples of prime numbers are: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, and 17 ...

Prime Factorization

  • "Prime Factorization" is the result in which prime numbers are multiplied together to get the original number.
Factors:
"Factors" are the numbers you multiply mutually to obtain another number:
  2*3=6
 (2, 3 factor)
In prime factorization, all factors will be prime numbers.  
Example: The prime factors of 15 be 3 and 5 (3x5=15, and 3 and 5 are prime numbers.

Hope you like the above explanation. Please leave your comments, if you have any doubts.

Two Step Equation Calculator

Introduction:
                Solving the significance of a variable by means of the equations is measured as one of the primary utensils of algebra. An equation is a mathematical account with two mathematical terms separated by an = sign connecting. A variable (say x) is in attendance in at least one side of the equation and our task is to find the value of x. Solving Two steps equation is a simple equation, as the name suggests involves only two steps calculator.

Steps in solving two step equations calculator:

   The two-step equation calculator take two steps to solve an equation which contain extra than one process. The two steps include,
  • The first step is to make simpler the equation by means of the inverse of subtraction or addition.
  • The next step is to make simpler the equation further by using the inverse of multiplication or division.

    
In two-step equations calculator the circumstance for receiving the variables by itself involve the necessity of opposed operation. If a numeral is added or subtracted in one side of the equation then the same number will be added or subtracted on the other side.
