Why can Venus get rid of co2?
Space and AstronomyCan Venus be colonized? Venus, despite being incredibly inhospitable on the surface, might actually be a better target for colonization. Suspending blimps in the Venusian clouds is not only feasible, but offers some of the most Earth-like conditions in the solar system. Is Venus or Mars easier to colonize? Conclusion. Compared to Mars, Venus may

What does 4i mean in math?
Space and AstronomyAs a double check, we can square 4i (4*4 = 16 and i*i =-1), producing -16. All negative square roots are called “imaginary numbers” (now you know where that letter ‘i’ comes from). Complex Numbers. When a number has the form a + bi (a real number plus an imaginary number) it is called a

How do you translate and rotate a reflection shape?
Space and AstronomyHow do you rotate a reflection? Video quote: Negative 1 so what happened is we made the y-coordinate. Be the opposite sign we kept the x-coordinate the same you can see that's a-ok. How do you translate reflections? Video quote: So all you got to do is multiply the y-coordinate by negative one that's how

Why are triangles special?
Space and AstronomyBut triangles aren’t just mathematically significant, they are also fundamental to the way we build our environments, both physical and virtual. Triangles are special because they are exceptionally strong. Out of all the two-dimensional shapes we can make out of straight struts of metal, only a triangle is rigid. Why triangle is the strongest shape?
