Math Failure Archimedes Plutonium <plutonium.archimedes@gmail.com> fails:

>First we start out with a dumb German named Franz hiding behind "Me"

So you have no proof that Franz's proof below is wrong, only insults?
FAIL.


Below you will find a simple *proof* that shows that certain conic 
sections are ellipses.

Some preliminaries:

Top view of the conic section and depiction of the coordinate system used 
in the proof:

              ^ x
              |
             -+- <= x=h
         .'   |   `.
        .     |     .
        |     |     |
        '     |     '      
         `.   |   .'
 y <----------+ <= x=0
             
Cone (side view):
                 .
                /|\
               / | \
              /b |  \
             /---+---' <= x = h
            /    |'   \
           /   ' |     \
          / '    |      \
x = 0 => '-------+-------\
        /    a   |        \

Proof:

r(x) = a - ((a-b)/h)x  and  d(x) = a - ((a+b)/h)x,  hence

y(x)^2 = r(x)^2 - d(x)^2 = ab - ab(2x/h - 1)^2 = ab(1 - 4(x - h/2)^2/h^2.

Hence (1/ab)y(x)^2 + (4/h^2)(x - h/2)^2 = 1  ...equation of an ellipse

    kibo-stalker-shitparade-Moroney loves AP's theory that Starpower is really just Faraday Law acting inside atoms. Does David Weitz, Robert Westervelt, Richard Wilson  love it also? Archimedes Plutonium <plutonium.archimedes@gmail.com> - 2018-09-29 15:37 -0700
