Hi Bob!

If you could post the one using geometry that would be great.

Thanks for the help!

The solution to the following problem confused me a little:

Problem: Points P and Q are on sides CB and CD, respectively, of square ABCD such that CP=CQ=AB/4. Find tan(angle PAQ).

Solution: We have tan(angle PAQ) = (tan(angle QAB - angle PAB) = tan(angle QAB) - tan(angle PAB))/(1 + (tan(angle QAB))(tan(angle PAB)). 

The solution continues from here but I don't understand the part where it says (tan(angle QAB - angle PAB) = tan(angle QAB) - tan(angle PAB))/(1 + (tan(angle QAB))(tan(angle PAB)). How do you get this equation?

Thanks in advance for the help!

1) Let F, G, and H be collinear points on the Cartesian plane such that FG/GH = 1. If F = (a, b) and H = (7a, c), then what is the x-coordinate of G?

2) The points (0,4) and (1,3) lie on a circle whose center is on the x-axis. What is the radius of the circle?

I'm really stuck on these...Can someone help? Thanks in advance!

I’m really stuck on this problem:

Suppose f(x) is a function defined for all real x, and suppose f is invertible (that is the inverse of f(x) exists for all x in the range of f).

If the graphs of y=f(x^2) and y=f(x^4) are drawn, at how many points do they intersect?

Thanks in advance!

I'm really stuck on this math problem...does anyone get it?

Given that f(3)=5 and f(3x)=f(x)+2 for all x, find the inverse of f(11).

Thanks in advance! smile
