"radical x"

"Half-powered x"

saying "foil" past middle school

In what meaning? I call shiny Magic cards foil (adjective) and I call thin sheets of material a foil (noun).

"scroot x"

>root x (like foot)
My precalc teacher always said it like that and it really got on my nerves, excellent teacher though

>In what meaning?
He means "first, outside, inside, last", the standard method of multiplying two binomials.

"sin x" instead of "sine x"

>have to multiple two trinomials
>"just FOIL it"

The fuck.

You can't stop me from saying "cosh x" and "sinch x"

"sine x" instead of "inverse arc sine x"

Do you mean how it's written out, or have you actually seen people pronounce it as "sin"?

Kek

>pi
>"pie"
Learn Greek, you uncultured swines.

only rages about pi, not the mutilation of mi, ni and almost every greek letter

Things that set my autism off:

>"What is 3-7?" "Um, -10?"
>pronuncing sine as "sin"
>pronouncing cosine as co-"sin"
>adults adding with their fingers
>kids who are given a new problem to do and they say "i dont know" within the first 5 seconds and stop there

Oh, you mean foiling?

That's such a stupid mnemonic, why not just call it distribution and call it day? People don't even remember what distribution is anymore

it's essentially a checklist. while you're obviously right about distribution, if someone said that to me instead of foiling I would think of something more like 7(x+y) than (2x+7)(4x+9).

Reminder that mnemonics are for brainlets

[eqn]\sqrt{\mathbf (\star}[/eqn]

Igenvalue
Iv had to read that at least twice

Burgers calling indices, 'exponents'

The root of all evil

My linear algebra prof would call it an "eye-in-value"

I swear he did it just to piss everyone off.

My native language is German but whenever I speak of him in English I call him Yooler. I can't stop.

>"global warming is a fact"

Sometimes I wonder how I can possibly justify interpreting the arrangement of pixels on my monitor as something someone has written

...

People say sin, unfortunately.

>cosin
i fucking lost it

I've had people just read it straight as in "cose". I honestly would rather hear co-sin than this.

Why are people retarded?

>calling sinus "sine"
>calling cosinus "cosine"
Anglos should be mass euthanized.

Using parentheses for open intervals

>[math] \log f(x)=\log g(x)\\~~~~~ f(x)=g(x)\qquad (\div \log) [/math]

Lol was he from the midwest US? that's how my friend's dad from wisconsin talked

Chinese TA said "Igor-walyews" and "Igor-wecters"

>derive with respect to x

Brackets for coordinates, intervals, and vectors all overlap to the point of ambiguity already.

Though I do wish ]x1,x2[ were standard.

in spanish, that phrase is correct
what's the problem with 'derive' in english?

Not retarded, they just don't know what that refers to. Haven't been taught

I knew someone in high school that would say "coze" for cosine. I'm also a senior year math major and sometimes add with my fingers kek.

No, in spanish that is not correct, mathematics is universal. The correct term is "differentiate" stupid beaner

[math] 1x [/math]

[math] 1\cdot x [/math]

[math]1\times x[/math]

In Greek schools you write "sin" as as "ημ" (spelled im) and "cos" as "συν" (spelled sin).

Then, when you go to higher education, you use the international notation "sin" and "cos" and it's infuriating at the beginning to write "sin" and mean sine instead of cosine.

I got fabrica billiares


or 3 x x where the middle x denotes multiplication but you can't tell the difference.

1^x (and no, it's not an exponent)

what do you call it? "expanding"?

>saying [math] {\sin}^{-1} [/math] as anything other than "arcsine"

w-what is it?

>"d-y-d-x"

>d of y over d of x
I never understood why kids in my class would say "d of x" as if it's a function.

distribution nerd

fucking kek

Derive means to obtain or recover.

How to pronounce dy/dx?

"y prime"

"The derivative of the function y with respect to the variable x"

Or for less autism

"The derivative of y with respect to x"

"dee-why dee-ecks"

I see
I'm pretty sure even translated textbooks use the term "derive", though

>caring what other people call things
what a brainlet activity

>coming into a thread about autistically insulting what other people call things
>only reply with this post to the guy who insulted the thing you obviously say
How dishonest.

Did you even read the subject you jabroni?

:^)
nope (obviously yes)

>merely
>pretending

oh god all of those people in the background laughing

I'm getting 2nd hand pain just from looking at this

>Bait
Take DiffEQ and you will understand why it is.

patrician right here

>God is real

"shine x"

>God isn't real.

it's usually obvious in context
though I do agree it should be less ambiguous

>I'm agnostic

O_O

d by y by d by x

ell enn ecks

Don't be stupid, that's way too over the top to be serious. I had a good laugh honestly.

Most on Veeky Forums (and Veeky Forums im general, really) don't have the concept of humor. Every single thing is either out to get them, annoy them or insult them.

>no oxford comma
leave this land

Ikr, that's just fucking idiotic

This. Thank you

d over d x of y of x

>complaining about someone's punctuation
>without using punctuation
?????

Is it normal to pronounce tanh as "tanph"?

Makes me want to vomit every time my lecturer says it

I say "tanch"

y dash

In my mind I always read it as "tan-h" as if you're saying tan-hello but cut off the "ello". I'm glad I never had to say it out loud because I know it'd be fucking stupid. I do the same for sinh but at least cosh can be easily pronounced.

Patrician tier:
Sinus, cosinus, tangens, cotangens, arcsinus etc.
Pleb tier:
Anything else

:^)

>AutoCAD

Are you saying it should be "rad x" or do you prefer "square root of x"?
