what the fuck is the answer to:
sin(x) + cos(x) = a
you are supposed to solve for x.
got it from my teacher as a brainteaser that she says can be beautifully solved geomatrically, but i just don't see how to solve it other than "all x are correct as long as a is an arbitrary constant".'
i feel like a brainlet right now

I also tried constructing a right triangle where the hypotenuse is equal to one so that i could simplify the length of the other sides as equal to the cosine and sine respectively. then i tried substituting with the pythagoras formula (Hypotenuse^2 = A^2 + B^2 where A and B are the cathetus (if that is even the right word, not native speaker)) but it just gave me cos(x) = cos(x)

Hi Veeky Forums. Is there an n-dimensional equivalent of the linear fractional transformation
[eqn]f(x) = \frac{ax+b}{cx+d}[/eqn]
I have some novel numerical jiggery pokery that is too cool to not understand deeper which operates under the assumption that just such a thing exists, but I'll be damned (as an hobbyist) if I can find anything about this.

An integral is a number, an antiderivative is a function.
