    Does God exist?

    Then what is god? Nothing is above existence. anything that can exist can be referred to as "it" if the properties of "it" are unknown. This also applies to metaphysical concepts.

    MATH2701 Abstract Algebra/Fundamental Analysis

    I'm getting O(x⁻¹) Differentiating under the integral sign yields: f'(x) = \sin{x} \left(\frac{1}{x+2\pi} - \frac{1}{x}\right) = \sin{x} \left(-\frac{2\pi}{x^2} + \frac{4\pi^2}{x^3} + \mathcal{O}\left(x^{-4} \right) \right) Ignore sin x and integrate both sides to obtain an asymptotic...

    Trig functions question

    $\noindent $ y = \frac{2-\sin{\theta}}{2\tan{\theta}} = \cot{\theta} - \frac{\cos{\theta}}{2} Stop here. cot(θ) is unbounded and cos(θ) is bounded as θ → 0, so the maximum value does not exist.

    The Evil Integral Marathon

    This is purely an observational thread, although you may choose to answer them anyway. Post the most evil integrals you -have ever/happen to- come across in your mathematical endeavours. And optionally, make a few observational comments on the integral, and any attempted evaluations of it...
