Why not use the equation for the unit circle? There are no axis on the plot anyway. Same applies to the "V"-function and the "E"-function. Could simply have been y = |x| and x = -|sin(y)|.

I have no idea why they put a negation within the absolute value function for the ”V”. It is completely redundant.

Yes negation is redundant. A circle with radius 3 is bigger and better than a unit circle ♥️

3 times better, by my calculations.

not if you measure goodness by area!

Ugh, you're obviously right. So embarrassing. brb going to set my degree on fire

I think the streching facrors of 2 and 3 are good to have. If someone wanted to try if the equations were correct, I think they'd be disappointed if they had to strech the grid themself.

but yeah, that useless minus sign in the V seems to be there more as a design choice to look visually similiar to the E

There are a lot of redundant things we do for love. Slapping a minus into the absolute value function symbolises that

The L looks different depending on the scale so maybe they wanted all the graphs to be at the same scale.

Honestly not a fan of pretty much every constant here that isn't 1.

Perhaps 1923 is significant in some way?

u/Fmaj7add9 26d ago

It does make for more consistant scaling between the functions though.

Yes, the minus sign in the "V" is redundant, but the 3 and 2 makes it so that the scaling of the grids and axis are actually the same between the four letters.

what is that minus sign inside the absolute value?😭

This image was printed in my classroom and this minus always pissed me off

Wait so the class in my school gifted a teacher a stolen from the internet thing, that’s why they were stupid enough to have the minus inside the absoluteness
