A Complete Over-Analysis of Alan Becker’s Animation Vs. Math

[@voidtv8401]

It makes infinitely more sense when you stop thinking of TSC as a stick figure, and start thinking of him as the numerical value that he is: *frames per second.* He is innately math meeting visuals. That’s why, for example, the multiplication sign speeds him up: it increased his play rate.

[@Izzythemaker127]

I never thought about it like that, but yeah they are canonically an animation, and that makes sense.

[@yigitpasa7743]

Yeah! That makes alot of sense😮

[@FireyDeath4]

What is he being multiplied by? Two? There wasn't a 2 there and the multiplicative identity is 1 (1x=x), so without any multiplication factor it seems like it essentially should've just done nothing...

[@YatzeeWillWearAGreenHat]

​@@FireyDeath4 I know that's a far reach, but if he's f.ex. 24 frames/second he could do 2×4, making it 8 frames/second. This would lead to this effect from old movies, where everyone is moving slightly faster than in reality, because you need to speed it up to get a flowing image.

[@notsocuteslime2297]

Genius

[@da3577]

I think the reason symbols work on TSC is because he's using the number on his attributes, such as speed and position, the two attributes he edits in the animation. He isn't a number, but he's composed of them, like atoms.

Makes sense, he's a computer code

Well to be fair, Alan Becker is an absolute master of not just animation but also visual storytelling, script writing and all the other things that a master movie director would do, and he is really way beyond just a KZbinr in terms of talent and skills. I think he chose to still only make projects that have a scale appropriate to KZbin and only posting his videos on KZbin instead of making one of those cash grabs called Hollywood movies in 2023 and charge insane amount of money, because he is humble and has integrity, NOT because he doesn't have the capacity to lol

[@mrmadhusudhan3142]

THE MATH LORE 0:07 The simplest way to start -- 1 is given axiomatically as the first natural number (though in some Analysis texts, they state first that 0 is a natural number) 0:13 Equality -- First relationship between two objects you learn in a math class. 0:19 Addition -- First of the four fundamental arithmetic operations. 0:27 Repeated addition of 1s, which is how we define the rest of the naturals in set theory; also a foreshadowing for multiplication. 0:49 Addition with numbers other than 1, which can be defined using what we know with adding 1s. (proof omitted) 1:23 Subtraction -- Second of the four arithmetic operations. 1:34 Our first negative number! Which can also be expressed as e^(i*pi), a result of extending the domain of the Taylor series for e^x (\sum x^n/n!) to the complex numbers. 1:49 e^(i*pi) multiplying itself by i, which opens a door to the... imaginary realm? Also alludes to the fact that Orange is actually in the real realm. How can TSC get to the quantity again now? 2:12 Repeated subtraction of 1s, similar to what was done with the naturals. 2:16 Negative times a negative gives positive. 2:24 Multiplication, and an interpretation of it by repeated addition or any operation. 2:27 Commutative property of multiplication, and the factors of 12. 2:35 Division, the final arithmetic operation; also very nice to show that - and / are as related to each other as + and x! 2:37 Division as counting the number of repeated subtractions to zero. 2:49 Division by zero and why it doesn't make sense. Surprised that TSC didn't create a black hole out of that. 3:04 Exponentiation as repeated multiplication. 3:15 How higher exponents corresponds to geometric dimension. 3:29 Anything non-zero to the zeroth power is 1. 3:31 Negative exponents! And how it relates to fractions and division. 3:37 Fractional exponents and square roots! We're getting closer now.. 3:43 Decimal expansion of irrational numbers (like sqrt(2) is irregular. (l avoid saying "infinite" since technically every real number has an infinite decimal expansion...) 3:49 sqrt(-1) gives the imaginary number i, which is first defined by the property i^2 = -1. 3:57 Adding and multiplying complex numbers works according to what we know. 4:00 i^3 is -i, which of course gives us i*e^(i*pi)! 4:14 Refer to 3:49 4:16 Euler's formula withx= pi! The formula can be shown by rearranging the Taylor series for e^x. 4:20 Small detail: Getting hit by the negative sign changes TSC's direction, another allusion to the complex plane! 4:22 e^(i*pi) to e^0 corresponds to the motion along the unit circle on the complex plane. 4:44 The +1/-1 "saber" hit each other to give out "0" sparks. 4:49 -4 saber hits +1 saber to change to -3, etc. 4:53 2+2 crossbow fires out 4 arrows. 4:55 4 arrow hits the division sign, aligning with pi to give e^(i*pi/4), propelling it pi/4 radians round the unit circle. 5:06 TSC propelling himself by multiplying i, rotating pi radians around the unit circle. 5:18 TSC's discovery of the complex plane (finally!) 5:21 The imaginary axis; 5:28 the real axis. 5:33 The unit circle in its barest form. 5:38 2*pi radians in a circle. 5:46 How the radian is defined -- the angle in a unit circle spanning an arc of length 1. 5:58 r*theta -- the formula for the length of an arc with angle theta in a circle with radius r. 6:34 Fora unit circle, theta /r is simply the angle. 6:38 Halfway around the circle is exactly pi radians. 6:49 How the sine and cosine functions relate to the anticlockwise rotation around the unit circle -- sin(x) equals the y-coordinate, cos(x) equals to the K-coordinate. 7:09 Rotation of sin(x) allows for visualization of the displacement between sin(x) and cos(x). 7:18 Refer to 4:16 7:28 Changing the exponent by multiples of pi to propel itself in various directions. 7:34 A new form!? The Taylor series of e^x with x=i*pi. Now it's got infinite ammo!? Also like that the ammo leaves the decimal expansion of each of the terms as its ballistic markings. 7:49 The volume of a cylinder with area pi r^2 and height 8. 7:53 An exercise for the reader (haha) 8:03 Refer to 4:20 8:25 cos(x) and sin(x) in terms of e^(ix) 8:33 This part +de net tnderstand, nfertunately... TSC creating a "function" gun f(x) =9tan(pi*x), so that shooting at e^(i*pi) results in f(e^(i*pi))= f(-1) = 0. (Thanks to @anerdwithaswitch9686 for the explanation - it was the only interpretation that made sense to me; still cannot explain the arrow though, but this is probably sufficient enough for this haha) 9:03 Refer to 5:06 9:38 The "function" gun, now 'evaluating" at infinity, expands the real space (which is a vector space) by increasing one dimension each time, i.e. the span of the real space expands to R^2, R^3, etc. 9:48 logl(1-i)/(1+i)) = -i*pi/2, and multiplying by 2i^2 = -2 gives i*pi again. 9:58 Blocking the "infinity" beam by shortening the intervals and taking the limit, not quite the exact definition of the Riemann integral but close enough fo this lol 10:17 Translating the circle by 9i, moving it up the imaginary axis 10:36 The "displacement" beam strikes again! Refer to 7:09 11:26 Now you're in the imaginary realm. 12:16 "How do I get out of here?" 12:28 Den't quite get this-One... Says "exit" with t being just a half-hidden pi (thanks @user-or5yo4gz9r for that) 13:03 n! in the denominator expands to the gamma function, a common extension of the factorial function to non-integers. 13:05 Substitution of the iterator from n to 2n, changing the expression of the summands. The summand is the formula for the volume of the n-dimensional hypersphere with radius 1. (Thanks @brycethurston3569 for the heads-up; you were close in your description!) 13:32 Zeta (most known as part of the Zeta function in Analysis) joins in, along with Phi (the golden ratio) and Delta (commonly used to represent a small quantity in Analysis) 13:46 Love it - Aleph (most known as part of Aleph-null, representing the smallest infinity) looming in the background. Welp that's it! In my eyes anyway. Anything I missed? The nth Edit: Thanks to the comment section for your support! It definitely helps being a math major to be able to write this out of passion.

5:04 in this case, TSC Is considered as X, since he is not a number, the "math dimension" has to do something with him if he include himself in an equation of sort, so TSC is X, making X rotate 90° on the axis, so watever his position was (if x was a point on the axis), it is rotated by i

For a stick figure with it's own consciousness made by it's creator, it definitely learns fast. Maybe it's an effect of "things" gaining it's own consciousness and able to learn fast. Kinda like how in stick figure vs minecraft, it was able to adapt real quick.

I personally thought the reason why the circle increases is because more E^i[pi] enters it, thus 'adding' to the radius. I only noticed with multiple watches, but as more enter the circle, it increases in size. I don't think any of them are actually touching the equation-just that their mere presence is adding into it!

[@mintaroum.9096]

At 8:37,you could see the radius was lying around. Later on at 8:42 the eulers were taking them. They might've used that to change the radius

He is the math. He suddenly see a dark red light approaching, and consuming dead planets and blackholes while he's floating, his last solution if he can do anything because he is the math Maybe he can restart the universe. So he rush to make the equation of making or restarting the universe. It's for the player to think the equation for restarting the universe. Any equation, symbol or number the player typed will cause 3 outcomes: 1. Equation didn't work. So Game Over 2. Instead of restarting the same universe, it created a different universe. 3. If the equation got right, the universe will restart and will start showing the character's background story. Edited version: A man wakes up in a destroyed lab and finds out the world is completely dead. After wandering around, he goes back to the lab and the telescope catches his attention. He looked at it and saw that some sort of shockwave was approaching to planet millions of light-years away, and it was getting faster than the speed of light. He feels that he is in danger so he hurries up to save himself and suddenly sees a book filled with only half of the entirety of the math. He also discovers that he can manipulate things using math with his hands. The first thing he did is add the same object and created two objects. Fast forward, he now solves half of the math. Finds out he is the math itself, he is an experiment. Now the shockwave is very near the cluster of galaxies where the milky way galaxy is. He hurries ups to get to the point where he can make an equation to restart the universe because he knows he can manipulate anything. He's rushing to make equations until he gets the right formula. Closed his eyes and throw the equations at the approaching shockwave at the speed of light and the universe restarted.

6:22 When a circle is stretched like that, it turns into an ellipse. So, any ellipse with major and minor axis greater than or equal to the radius of a circle and be created by stretching said circle.

[@MaoMaster69]

more things to note and perhaps clarify, 4:22 graphically, using a negative sign on the x coordinate of a point in space flips it about the y-axis. Here, it flips TSC around. This happens again at 8:03 but relative to the graph's (0,0). 6:01 θ and r are polar coordinates. Where θ is a phase and r is a magnitude. The equation θr equals the arclength the dot travels from a reference direction. 7:04 the highlighted area is equal to the area of the unit circle. This becomes more significant at 10:38, when it projects into an area of effect. 7:30 subtraction of radians when depicted in the complex plane results in a clockwise rotation, which is the direction that the slash arcs travel. 7:45 The formulation for this is a little confusing. 2πr is the equation for circumference, while πr² is the equation for a circle's area. The way TSC forms his shield suggests that his shield has a circumference of 4, and an area of 4π, which isn't possible. A circle with an area of 4π has a radius of 2, and the circumference of a circle with a radius of 2 is 4π, not 4. (But interestingly enough, a circle with a radius of 2 has the same circumference and area.) 8:26 Personally, I would depict e^(-iπ) as cos(π) - i*sin(π) because that negative symbol bears a lot of significance when working with signals. Sine and cosine have this weird relationship with negative symbols. cos(x) = cos(-x), but sin(x) ≠ sin(-x). Instead, sin(x) = -sin(-x).

Let’s explore the differences between Parabolas and Hyperbolas in a simple way: 1. **Parabola**: • A Parabola is like a graceful curve ⤴️ that looks like a smile 😃 or a frown 🙁, depending on its orientation. • It’s the shape you get when you graph a quadratic equation, like . • Picture throwing a ball into the air 🏈- its path forms a parabola as it goes up and then comes back down. • Parabolas have a special point called the VERTEX, where the curve changes direction. It’s like the peak of a hill 🏔️ or the bottom of a valley. 2. **Hyperbola**: • A Hyperbola is like two mirrored curves🪞⤴️ that stretch out to infinity ♾️, forming a symmetrical shape. • Imagine two branches of a tree 🌲 that grow apart from each other, but NEVER touch ❌. • Hyperbolas have two SPECIAL LINES called ASYMPTOTES, which the branches get closer and closer to but never actually touch ❌. It’s like chasing after a dream that you can never quite reach. (Differences: • Parabolas have a SINGLE curve ⤴️, while Hyperbolas have TWO distinct branches ↩️↪️. • Parabolas can open upwards, downwards, left, or right, while Hyperbolas stretch out horizontally or vertically. • Parabolas have a Vertex, while Hyperbolas have Asymptotes.) (Similarities: • Both Parabolas and Hyperbolas are types of conic sections, which are shapes formed by SLICING a cone. • They’re both used in mathematics to model various phenomena and in engineering to design structures like satellite dishes and reflectors.) In summary, while both Parabolas ⤴️ and Hyperbolas ↩️↪️ are curved shapes, they have distinct characteristics that set them apart. Parabolas are like graceful smiles or frowns 😃🙁, while Hyperbolas are like mirrored branches stretching out to infinity🪞📏♾️.

[@CatCat99998]

10:00 One point i think you missed is right after the integral appears, there's some expressions that appear on the left and right of it. The integral is 5 separate integrals, which are in the exponents of the e^...i on the left of the integral, each of the top 3 evaluate to π/2, the fourth goes to 3π/8, and the last to π/3, meaning that each of the five expressions evaluate to e^iπ. Also at 8:30 i didn't realize why the tan function was cancelling out the e^iπ since I didn't see the π that was multiplying in the tan function, good job spotting that. And at 13:04, while i knew the formula for the volume, It just didn't connect for me, so overall great job of explaining it.

[@williejohnson5172]

@@CatCat99998 We both agree that he creates the tan function by creating sin/cos. But this is a special tan function. Note 8:33. He has clearly formed the the unit radius in terms of the tan. Such a tan function always acts as a slope and therefore as a derivative. When he shoots the individual e^ipi's he is taking the derivative of each of them. But since e^ipi=-1=constant and the derivative of a constant is zero he thereby reduces each individual e^ipi to zero. You can see the result on the screen at 8:44. At 9:27 he grabs the infinity sign (infinity stone?) He inserts it into the gun converting it from a derivative gun to an integral gun. It's on now!!!! The integral of a constant is still zero but an integral is an infinite collection of derivatives so instead of dispatching each individual e^ipi constant he can destroy huge groupings (infinite sums) of them. He starts wiping them out. See all the zeros being formed at 9:30. He is still using the tan function with the infinity sign but in this case it is the sum of the sine and cosine which form the hypotenuse which forms the tan. He uses discrete bullets in the derivative gun (sin/cos) but uses waves in the integral gun (sin+cos). By changing the radius from 10 to 100 (10:58) that confirms that the dot function gun was indeed built from the unit radius. By increasing the radius he increases the amplitude, A, giving more power to the wave, that is to say, A(cos\theta+isintheta)=Ae^{itheta}=Ae^{ipi}.

[@CatCat99998]

​@williejohnson5172 firstly, how does it start acting as a derivative? just because its a bunch of slopes doesn't mean anything as its a fuction, not an operator like derivtives, also integral of a constant isnt 0, integral is antiderivative, not a bunch of derivatives put together. Also, the infinity just extended the range so it wasnt a projectile. As for the sin and cosine hammer part, they basically launch the beam using the sin and cos waves, that beam applies f(●) to the e^ipi, zeroing them out

1. **Coefficient**: • Coefficient is like the number that hangs out 😎 in FRONT of a Variable ❎ in a math expression. • It’s like the price tag 💲🏷️ on an item in a store - it tells you HOW MUCH of the Variable you have. (For example, in the Expression 3x, 3 is the Coefficient of x.) 2. **Base**: • Base is like the foundation of a math operation, especially in Exponentials and Logarithms. • It’s like the bottom of a building 🧱 - everything else rests on top of it. (In the Expression 2^3, 2 is the BASE.) 3. **Exponent**: • Exponent is like the little number floating above ☁️ the base, telling you how many times to MULTIPLY✖️the base by itself. • It’s like the power that makes things Grow ⬆️ or Shrink ⬇️ in Math. (In the Expression 2^3, 3 is the Exponent.) 4. **Variable**: • Variable is like the mystery number in a math problem that can CHANGE or VARY 📈📉. • It’s like a box that can hold different things depending on the situation. (In the Expression 3x + 5, x is the Variable.) 5. **Constant**: • Constant is like the unchanging part of a math expression, always staying the SAME ✅. • It’s like the fixed number that NEVER MOVES in a game. (In the Expression 3x + 5, 5 is the Constant.) 6. **Monomial**: • Monomial is like a simple math expression with just ONE term, like a single ingredient in a recipe. • It’s like a SOLO player🧍‍♂️in a game, doing its OWN THING without any partners ❌👫. (For example, 3x or 5y are Monomials.) 7. **Polynomial**: • Polynomial is like a more complex math expression with MULTIPLE TERMS added or subtracted together. • It’s like a team of players working together to solve a problem 👫🧑‍🤝‍🧑. (For example, 3x + 5 or 2x^2 - 3x + 1 are Polynomials.) 8. **Relationships and Differences**: • Coefficients, Constants, Variables, and Exponents are ALL PARTS of Expressions, while Base is specifically related to Exponentiation. • Monomials are a specific type of Polynomial with just ONE TERM, while Polynomials can have MULTIPLE TERMS. • Coefficients and Constants are similar in that they’re BOTH FIXED numbers, but Coefficients are associated with Variables while Constants stand aline. (Tips and Tricks: • Remember the “C” connection: Coefficient, Constant, and Constant Base (in Exponentials). • Think of Variables as the “variable villains” that can change their value anytime! • Monomials are like “mono” (single) and Polynomials are like “poly” (multiple) - simple and complex, respectively.) In summary, these Math Terms are like building blocks that help us understand and manipulate expressions and equations. They each have their own role to play, but together, they create the rich tapestry of mathematical concepts and problems we encounter.

1. **Sine (sin)**: Imagine you’re on a roller coaster going up and down. The sine function tells you how high or low you are at any point on the ride.🎢 In a triangle, if you divide the length of the side opposite an angle by the length of the hypotenuse (the longest side), you get the sine of that angle. It helps us understand how steep or gentle a slope is. (For remembering, think of “Sine” as “SLIDE” - it’s like sliding up and down the roller coaster.) 2. **Cosine (cos)**: Cosine is like a buddy to sine. It tells you how far you are from the starting point on the roller coaster. 📏🎢 In a triangle, if you divide the length of the side adjacent to an angle by the length of the hypotenuse, you get the cosine of that angle. It’s like measuring how far you are from the starting line. (For remembering, think of “cosine” as “COZY” - it’s like getting cozy with the starting point.) 3. **Tangent (tan)**: Tangent is like a secret agent that loves to climb. 🧗 In a triangle, if you divide the length of the side opposite an angle by the length of the side adjacent to that angle, you get the tangent of that angle. It helps us understand how steep a slope is compared to how far you move horizontally. (For remembering, think of “Tangent” as “TANGLED/TRIPPED” - it’s like getting tangled up and getting tripped down in how steep the climb is.) These functions are super important because they help us solve all kinds of problems involving triangles, like figuring out the height of a mountain 🏔️ from a distance or the angle a rocket 🚀 needs to launch into space. And guess what? They’re not just for triangles! They’re like Swiss army knives of math - you can use them in all sorts of shapes and situations to figure out Angles and Distances. 📏📐 So next time you’re on a roller coaster or climbing a hill, remember, Sine, Cosine, and Tangent are there to help you understand the ride!

[@VrayCat]

1. **Cosecant, Secant, and Cotangent**: • Cosecant, Secant, and Cotangent are like cousins of Sine, Cosine, and Tangent. They’re related but have their own unique roles. • Cosecant is the reciprocal of Sine, Secant is the reciprocal of Cosine, and Cotangent is the reciprocal of Tangent. 2. **Relation to Sine, Cosine, and Tangent**: • SINE, COSINE, and TANGENT are like the original trio of trigonometric functions, representing the ratios of different sides of a right triangle. • Cosecant, Secant, and Cotangent are like their mirror images🪞📐, showing the inverses or reciprocals of those ratios. 3. **Usage in a Triangle**: • In a right triangle, Sine is the ratio of the side opposite an angle to the hypotenuse, Cosine is the ratio of the side adjacent to an angle to the hypotenuse, and Tangent is the ratio of the side opposite an angle to the side adjacent to the angle. • Cosecant, Secant, and Cotangent can be thought of as the “OPPOSITE” reverse ratios: Cosecant is the ratio of the hypotenuse to the side opposite an angle (Opposite of Sine), Secant is the ratio of the hypotenuse to the side adjacent to an angle (Opposite of Cosine), and Cotangent is the ratio of the side adjacent to an angle to the side opposite the angle (Opposite of Tangent). 4. **Importance and Purpose**: • Trigonometric functions are crucial for understanding and solving problems involving angles, triangles, and periodic phenomena. 🔺 • They’re used in Geometry, Physics, Engineering, and many other fields to model and analyze real-world situations involving Waves, Oscillations, and Rotations 🌊🔉🔁. • Cosecant, Secant, and Cotangent help us understand different aspects of right triangles and trigonometric relationships, providing a more complete picture of the geometry involved. (**Tips and Tricks**: • Remember the RECIPROCAL RELATIONSHIP: Cosecant is the reciprocal of Sine, Secant is the reciprocal of Cosine, and Cotangent is the reciprocal of Tangent. • Think of them as the “OPPOSITE” 🪞📐 functions to Sine, Cosine, and Tangent, providing additional insights into the geometry of triangles.🔺) In summary, Cosecant, Secant, and Cotangent are like the “other side” of Trigonometry, providing complementary information to Sine, Cosine, and Tangent. Together, they help us understand and solve problems involving triangles, angles, and periodic phenomena, making them essential tools for mathematicians, scientists, and engineers. Just like pieces of a puzzle, each trigonometric function fits together to create a complete picture of the geometry of the world around us!

@@ZRovas117 Well, I think it's something like, imagine having 0 and 1, the difference between 0 and 1 in decimals is infinite, because an infinite number of decimals can fit between them (you can have 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 001 or have 0.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999) more or less towards could explain a way to have "infinity greater than infinity". or another example: You can have an infinite universe, but that infinite universe is a number among the infinite universes in a multiverse.

@@ZRovas117Infinity is yes still infinity, But some infinitys are smaller than other infinity’s. Considering you don’t know this enjoy your time before you enter high school.

@@ZRovas117 thinky this, there are infinite integers right? But there are also infinite real numbers, and we know there are more real numbers than integers.

[@drrenwtfrick]

​@@ZRovas117 yes, there are infinity's bigger than others. Aleph null is the sum of all numbers. Since every number is contained in that number you would count things ordinally for example instead of making stuff like ∞+1=∞ you would do stuff like 1st, 2nd, 3rd... etc all the way to all the numbers past. The next "ordinal" number you would see after all the numbers is omega (its in the greek symbol). Next is omega+1 then +2 etc until its omega plus itself making it times 2. And then times 3 and 4 and all the way to omega times itself, making omega squared. next is omega cubed, omega to the 4th power and all the way to omega to the omega. then you could do omega to the omega to the omega, and till there is an infinite power tower of omega's, repeated exponentiation is called "tetration" so its omega tetrated to omega. you can keep replacing over and over but no replacement will ever reach the next infinity, an irreplaceable infinity: Aleph 1. The next ordinal number outside aleph 1 is omega 1. You can keep going doing infinite orders of magnitude from aleph 2, aleph 3, aleph 4.... aleph omega ... aleph omega 1... aleph omega omega ... aleph omega omega omega omega omega... and you can keep going to even more crazy and absurd infinities, but there will always be an infinity that will be irreplaceable from all the infinities below so ironically there won't be an end to the infinitys as you can just add more and more things to it to grow bigger and bigger

This truly explains a lot about how Alan Becker is truly one of the best Number Lore creators of all time. ✊

[@genericname9919]

His lead animator was the math nerd in all of this

[@Pixelcraftian]

Was completely expecting text to show up at 1:00 saying "Math sends you to the void" or something lol

[@Bananappleboy]

Where the heck did you come from, and why are you receiving little attention???

[@cr1stel12]

haha yea!

[@CyC61]

This animation really makes me intrested in math again, if teachers show this in class that would be cool

Everything Alan Becker touches is given full respect of the concept. Everything Alan Becker touches is given full respect of the concept.

WHERE'S THE VIEWS THIS IS SO GREAT i subbed

[@YamamotoTV2021]

It was only published two hours ago

[@YamamotoTV2021]

3:15 I think you mean volume not area. But anyways I wish someone would make this into a game, probably only for people who are -18*e^(i*pi) or older.

[@satindra.r]

Its never too young to learn some math

[@Stage_3_Yawning_Cat]

12:26 imma be honest, I wasn't seeing the word exit there despite having watched this thrice, instead what I was seeing was a way to communicate multiplying by i resulting in a door gate thing (what pi kinda looks like) but I suppose exit works better

[@yaeyde]

same, i thought the e betrayed him and just made him dissapear

TSC covered the right half of π so it looks like a small cap t

1. **Reciprocals**: • Reciprocals are like the mirror image🪞or opposite of a number, but FLIPPED UPSIDE DOWN 🙃 in a fraction. • If you have a number like 2, its RECIPROCAL is 1/2. It’s like turning the number UPSIDE DOWN 🙃 and making it a FRACTION 1️⃣/2️⃣. • Reciprocals are like partners in a dance 🕺💃 - they’re different, but they fit together perfectly ✨. 2. **Usage in Math**: • Reciprocals are used in math to solve equations, simplify expressions, and perform operations like division. • For example, when you divide a number by its reciprocal, you get 1. It’s like dividing a pizza 🍕 into equal parts - you get one whole pizza. 3. **Usage in the Real World**: • Reciprocals are used in many real-world situations, like when you’re cooking and need to adjust a recipe. 🎂 If a recipe calls for 1/3 cup of flour and you want to make THREE TIMES 3️⃣✖️ as much, you’d use the RECIPROCAL (3/1 or just 3) to multiply the amount of flour needed. • They’re also used in measurements, like converting between different units of measurement. For example, if you know that 1 mile is equal to 1.609 kilometers, you can find the reciprocal (1/1.609) to convert kilometers to miles. 4. **Tips and Tricks**: • Think of reciprocals as the opposite numbers that complete each other, like puzzle pieces fitting together. • Remember that when you multiply a number by its Reciprocal, you get 1. It’s like UNDOING the operation you started with. • Reciprocals are like friends who always have each other’s backs - they’re different but always there to help out when needed. (In summary, reciprocals are like the FLIP SIDE of numbers 🪞, essential for solving Equations, simplifying Expressions, and performing Operations in math and the real world. Whether you’re dividing pizzas 🍕 or converting measurements ⚖️📏, understanding Reciprocals helps you navigate the world of numbers with ease. Just remember, they’re like the Yin to the Yang ☯️ of Mathematics, always ready to lend a helping hand!)
