  • i'm pretty sure any MIT professor would be able to proove the formula for the area of an ellipse...

  • shit that's a beautiful handwriting!

see all

    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.

  • @Wuzzi55

    Yes, like mine.

    :)

  • Shoot..its just from the movie "Rushmore."..BTW the guy was dreaming!
