Think we've got dividing and multiplying by zero wrong, lads

Think we've got dividing and multiplying by zero wrong, lads.

It should be:

[math]a \times 0 = a[/math]
[math]a \div 0 = a[/math]

So, the exact rules for dividing and multiplying by 1.

Because:

[math]\sqrt{a^2 + b^2} = |a|\sqrt{(\frac{b}{a})^2 + 1}[/math]

Is true for everything, except 0 under our current rules for dividing and multiplying by zero, therefore either our current rules are wrong or it just doesn't work with 0.

Can Veeky Forums explain why I am retarded to think the former?

Because your mother dropped you on your head when you were young

[math] 0

i clearly meant n^2 btw

>implying i^2 > 0
kys brainlet

it was implicit that i was talking about R

n usually implies an arbitrary element of the set of reals..

how did you get to know this?

n is more often a natural number or maybe an integer, not a real brainlet

i did my thesis on zero division

[math] a \times 0 = a \iff \\ a \times (a - a ) = a \iff \\ a^{-1} \times a \ (a-a) = a^{-1} \times a \iff \\ a-a = 1 \iff \\ 0 = 1 [/math]

Whoops, back to the drawing board.

Why? OP's example works with real and imaginary numbers.

If you followed the rules of PEMDAS, you would get 1 x 0 = 1, which using OP's logic gives 1 =1.

M: NxN => N

1. M(a,0) = 0
2. M(a,S(b)) = P(a,M,(a,b))

a * 0 = a
a * 1 = a
a * (1 + 0) = a
a * 1 + a * 0 = a
a + a = a
2a = 2

you fucked the distributivity and ton of other properties

So...

[math]
\frac{a}{a} = 1 \ or \ 0
[/math]

Doesn't make sense senpai.

did you actually check any example?

Your proof is incorrect. Faggot.

Just this one.

I'm sure it works for all others too.

[math]|a|\sqrt{(\frac{b}{a})^2 + 1}[/math]

how does that even work?
