Could you explain that? are you using the fact that the Area of a RHS triangle is ab/2 ? If so where did you get 5h from ?
lmao, you sound like someone who plays too much Counter-Strike :D
I don't know if I know how to do this... I'm just going to have a stab in the dark, seing as no-one else has replied.
Random answer:
S<sub>n</sub> = 0 + 0 + 6 + 18 + 36 + 60 + 90 + ... + 3(n-2)(n-3)
GP; S<sub>n</sup> = 6[(1-6<sup>n-1</sup>)]/-5
Simply by the expansion of (a+b)<sup>n</sup> and some manipulation.
This is VERY unlikely to be examined though. It's almost as likely as them asking us to derive Newtons Method of Root Approximation.
The Bored Community has put me in charge of raising the 'HSC'ers Morale' ;)
Just ask Slide_Rule or KFunk :D
PS. On page 109 of the proof Andrew Wiles forgot something: (Q.E.D.)
Because if we have them arranged in a line there is a fixed FIRST and LAST position. If they are then joined into a circle we don't know who was last/first.
So; (#ways the 2ppl can arrange themselves)(#ways the others can arrange themselves)(#ways the two groups can arrange themselves)...
The permutation of zero is 0? Since there are no things to permute...
Depends on the type of 0.
perm. of zero thing = 0
perm. of zero things = 0! = 0+1 = 2-1 = 2/2 = (0/0)! = e<sup>0</sup>
EDIT: Ignore (0/0)! :D
Thanks for the proof Rama. It's so simple once you read it. Why didn't I think of that? Oh well... if they ask us that tomorrow now we know how to do it.
