I've long learned having grandiose delusions don't help. Learning to be open to the prospect of being wrong/of avg. intelligence is important. I have to work so hard for a 3.9 GPA, and I know people who come to the lectures, when they do, high as a kite..they have 4.0 GPAs. Fallibility and modesty have be drilled into me.
I'm currently getting castrated by physical chemistry (makes Cal 2 look like Hawaii), so believe me, I have no hubris left.
From my liver to yours,
Cheers!

I stand corrected. It does make sense.
I'm talking Calculus II (majoring in Chemistry). I should have recognized that; moreover I'm making an A. No excuse. ahah
Forgive my stupidity!

@braydenbeautiful actually they do...do u really think hollywood would spend millions of dollars to make a movie and not spare a few bucks to hire a math professor that can solve this question? what he did on the board makes sense...he just did in a very long-winded way that seems complicated to someone who doesn't know any calculus...otherwise all he did was take the equation of an ellipse, rearrange in terms of x and integrate it from 0 to pi/2 and multiply by 4....

which movie it that from ?

Lmao this probably would be the easiest problem you ever did in a MIT math class, especially if you knew any calculus at all.
Just use the equation for the ellipse, rearrange the form such that y=(blah blah), and integrate y in terms of x. This gives you the area of everything under the equation curve... and that's what you want. OK, yes this is very cursory and there's a lot of details I'm eschewing, but the general idea is very straight-forward.

Try to solve the Poincare Conjuncture.

@gamemaster014 Let alone MIT profs, any mathematics professor at any accredited university could prove piab

Read Bertrand Russell's proof for 1+1 = 2. That's hard enough.

Shoot..its just from the movie "Rushmore."..BTW the guy was dreaming!
i'm pretty sure any MIT professor would be able to proove the formula for the area of an ellipse...
