Any attempt to apply practical math to impossible numbers (such as .9999~) do not mix.

Pi can be evaluated to over 500000000 digits, with no repitition or chances of actually ending (so far)
http://www.angio.net/pi/piquery

This is more than what I thought it was, I remember our old maths teacher telling us it had been done to 10000 places.

He also told us that you can also prove that 2 actually equals 1.


Let x = y
x2 = xy Multiply thoough by x
x2 - y2 = xy - y2 Subtract y2
(x-y)(x+y) = y(x-y) Factorise both sides of the equation
x+y = y Divide through by (x-y)
y+y = y Since we originally said that x = y
2y = y Make y = 1 (simplist, but can be done with any number)

i.e. 2 = 1



Oh yeah, and along with sin, cos and tan, you also have secant, cosecant and cotangent - but they are very rarely used, if at all.

0001+0001 in binary = 2

For 3, you would need 0010 + 0001 = 3.

I learned that first equation in Statute Law when the lecturer was giving examples of how you can form arguments on pretty much anything.

My statistics theory:
Okay, so the amount of people alive today is about 8% of all the people who have ever lived.
This means that 92% of people have died before.
This in turn means that 8% of people have never died
Statisticly speaking, this means that you only have a 92% chance of ever dying.

x - y = 0.. multiply by 0 equals 0, so 0 = 0... well done.

How about this? Can someone find what the problem is?

"The lower primate in us still resists, saying: .999~ doesn't really represent a number, then, but a process. To find a number we have to halt the process, at which point the .999~ = 1. But being an infinity process, it can never stop, and never be truly 1."

0.9999... = 1

1/3 = 0.3333...

3 * 0.3333... = 0.9999...

3 * 1/3 = 1

0.9999... = 1

As simple as that, and yes it it truly 1.

And you can never reach 1 from 0.9999. cause it is equal to 1, try to reach 0.9999... backward from 1, you will never reach it cause it is 1.

it makes it look like it, but the slopes of the two triangles are different. So it changes the area slightly by having it convex instead of concave.
