Here is a fragment of the table, which is called the Leibniz triangle. Its properties are “analogous in the sense of the opposite” to the properties of Pascal’s triangle. The numbers on the boundary of the triangle are the inverses of consecutive natural numbers. Each number is equal to the sum of two numbers below it. Find the formula that connects the numbers from Pascal’s and Leibniz triangles.
Prove that for a real positive \(\alpha\) and a positive integer \(d\), \(\lfloor \alpha / d\rfloor = \lfloor \lfloor \alpha\rfloor / d\rfloor\) is always satisfied.
Prove the irrationality of the following numbers:
a) \(\sqrt{3}{17}\)
b) \(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}\)
c) \(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{5}\)
d) \(\sqrt{3}{3} - \sqrt{2}\)
e) \(\cos 10^{\circ}\)
f) \(\tan 10^{\circ}\)
g) \(\sin 1^{\circ}\)
h) \(\log_{2}3\)
One of the roots of the equation \(x^2 + ax + b = 0\) is \(1 + \sqrt 3\). Find \(a\) and \(b\) if you know that they are rational.
Prove that the number \(\sqrt {2} + \sqrt {3} + \sqrt {5} + \sqrt {7} + \sqrt {11} + \sqrt {13} + \sqrt {17}\) is irrational.
A square grid on the plane and a triangle with vertices at the nodes of the grid are given. Prove that the tangent of any angle in the triangle is a rational number.
Prove that there is at most one point of an integer lattice on a circle with centre at \((\sqrt 2, \sqrt 3)\).
Prove that if \((p, q) = 1\) and \(p/q\) is a rational root of the polynomial \(P (x) = a_nx^n + \dots + a_1x + a_0\) with integer coefficients, then
a) \(a_0\) is divisible by \(p\);
b) \(a_n\) is divisible by \(q\).
Draw all of the stairs made from four bricks in descending order, starting with the steepest \((4, 0, 0, 0)\) and ending with the shallowest \((1, 1, 1, 1)\).
A frog jumps over the vertices of the triangle \(ABC\), moving each time to one of the neighbouring vertices.
How many ways can it get from \(A\) to \(A\) in \(n\) jumps?
