Prove that
Solution:
Consider the given equation above
In proving the trigonometric identities, we have to choose the most complicated part which is the left side of the given equation. Let's simplify the left side of the equation. Get the Least Common Denominator (LCD) of the two fractions and rewrite the fractions, we have
but
and the above equation becomes
Therefore,
This website will show the principles of solving Math problems in Arithmetic, Algebra, Plane Geometry, Solid Geometry, Analytic Geometry, Trigonometry, Differential Calculus, Integral Calculus, Statistics, Differential Equations, Physics, Mechanics, Strength of Materials, and Chemical Engineering Math that we are using anywhere in everyday life. This website is also about the derivation of common formulas and equations. (Founded on September 28, 2012 in Newark, California, USA)

A man bought three vanilla ice cream cones, two chocolate cones, four strawberry cones, and five butterscotch cones for his 14 children. In how many ways can he distribute the cones among his children?
Solution:
The given word problem above is about permutations but it is a different type which is called a Distinguishable Permutation.
If a set of n objects consists of k different kinds of objects with n1, objects of the first kind, n2 objects of the second kind, n3 objects of the third kind, and so on, where n1 + n2 + ......... + nk = n, then the number of distinguishable permutations of these objects is
Now, let's go back to the given problem, if n = 14 children, n1 = 3 vanilla ice cream cones, n2 = 2 chocolate cones, n3 = 4 strawberry cones, and n4 = 5 butterscotch cones, then the number of ways to distribute the cones among to his children is

Permutation Problems
Category: Algebra, Statistics
"Published in Newark, California, USA"
If polygons are labeled by placing letters at their vertices, how many ways are there of labeling (a) a triangle, (b) a quadrilateral, (c) a hexagon with the first 10 letters of the alphabet?
Solution:
The given word problem above is about permutations. Permutation is an arrangement of a number of objects in a definite order. To "permute" a set of objects means to arrange them in a definite order. The number of permutations of n things taken r at a time is given by the formula
where n! (read as n factorial) is equal to n(n -1)(n - 2)......3∙2∙1. Take note that the values of n and r must be zero and positive numbers only. 0! is equal to 1.
Now, let's go back to the given problem and solve for the permutations of the given polynomials.
(a) For a triangle, the number of ways to label the vertices with the first 10 letters of the alphabet are
(b) For a quadrilateral, the number of ways to label the vertices with the first 10 letters of the alphabet are
(c) For a hexagon, the number of ways to label the vertices with the first 10 letters of the alphabet are
