Answer to Problem 1A
Area
Explanation of Solution
Steps of construction:
- Taking A as a centre and radius more than half of AB, draw arcs on both the above and below the line segment AB as shown in figure (a).
- Similarly, taking B as a centre and radius same as above draw another arc on both the sides of the line segment that intersects the first pair of arcs as shown in the diagram (b).
- Join both the arcs by drawing a straight line. Line CD as shown in figure (c), is the perpendicular bisector of line segment AB with O as a centre.
Divide the line segment into three equal parts:
Steps of construction:
- From point A, draw a line segment AC forming an angle with AB as shown in fig(a).
- On line segment AC with the help of a compass mark three equal arcs D, E and F of any length (b).
- Connect point F with point B.
- Now taking F as a centre, draw arcs which intersect the line segment AC at G and BF at H.
- Repeat the procedure by taking D and E as centre and mark an arc of same radii as shown in figure.
- With the help of a compass measure the distance GH and mark the same distance from other two arcs as well which intersects the arcs at point K and M respectively.
- Join E with K and D with M and extending the lines past AB. Thus, line segment AB is divided into three equal parts.

Consider a simplified two-joint robotic arm where the two joints are connected by rigid links.Each joint has a mass, and the links are modeled as idealized rods. The motion of each jointaffects the other through the coupling of forces. The system can be modeled by the followingsecond-order coupled ODEs:
m1θ1" + k1(θ1 − θrest) + k3(θ1 − θ2) = 0 (equation 1)m2θ2" + k2(θ2 − θrest) + k3(θ2 − θ1) = 0 (equation 2)
where θ1(t) and θ2(t) represent the angular positions of the first and second joints, respec-tively. m1 and m2 are the effective masses at each joint. k1, k2 and k3 are the stiffnessconstants representing the elastic restoring forces in the joints and links. θrest = 0 representsthe equilibrium position for each joint.The parameters are:m1 = 1, m2 = 1, θrest = 0, k1 = 1, k2 = 2, k3 = 3, θrest = 0The initial conditions are:θ1(0) = 1, θ2(0) = 2Please solve by hand to get θ1(t) and θ2(t) using eigenvectors and eigenvalues.

- Sudoku Puzzle Rules Solving a Sudoku puzzle does not require the knowledge of mathematics but it does require logical thinking. A Sudoku puzzle is a grid of nine by nine squares or cells that have been subdivided into nine "regions" of three by three cells. Consider the following diagram: The objective of Sudoku is to enter a digit from 1 through 9 in each cell, in such a way that: Each horizontal row (shown in blue) contains each digit exactly once. Each vertical column (shown in pink) contains each digit exactly once. Each sub grid or region (shown in orange) contains each digit exactly once. In each Sudoku puzzle, some digits have already been entered, you may not change these. Your job is to fill the remaining cells with digits keeping in mind the three rules discussed above. Sudoku puzzles have become so popular that they can be found in newspapers and magazines around the world.

A wealthy doctor owned 17 expensive cars. Before he died, he prepared a wacky will for his 3 sons. The will stated that his 17 cars be divided among his three sons in a particular way: half of the cars were to go to his eldest son one-third to his middle son one-ninth to his youngest son. Everyone was puzzled. How can 17 cars be divided in such a way? While the sons were arguing about what to do, a mathematics teacher drove up in her new sports car. "Can I be of help?" she asked. After the sons explained the situation, she parked her sports car next to the doctor’s 17 cars and hopped out. "How many cars are there now?" The sons counted 18. Then she carried out the terms of the will. She…arrow_forwardYour task in this assignment is to decide whether owning a vehicle is worth the monthly costs.
