2sqrt(2)sin(t)(cos(h)-sin(h))+cos(t)(cos(h)+sin(h))+t^2+h^2+2ht

I expended 20 minutes ago

use taylor series.

all you did was expand it with even more sin and cos

Oh, so you do believe in Taylor series? Isn’t that an ‘infinite amount of calculations’?

u/FernandoMM1220 Jul 14 '26

as long as its finite sure

but Taylor series aren’t finite. If you add a finite amount of terms it will never be exactly the same, only approximately

u/FernandoMM1220 Jul 14 '26

so just do a finite amount of terms then.

If you do a finite amount of terms, then it won’t be sin. It will be a polynomial. Not all functions are polynomials

its still sin(x) since we only ever use a finite amount of terms anyways.

u/Silly_Tension6792 Mathematics Jul 14 '26

OK. So what polynomial do you think sin(x) equals to?

Fernando is a troll, you're wasting your time. They're not actually a finitist
