๐Ÿ“ Solvability of Linear Diophantine Equations The equation $ax + by = c$ has integer solutions if and only if $\\gcd(a,b)$ divides $c$. Proof: (โŸน) If $x, y$ are solutions, then $\\gcd(a,b)$ divides $ax + by = c$. (โŸธ) Suppose $d = \\gcd(a,b)$ divides $c$. Write $c = dk$. By the Linear Representation Theorem, $d = ax_0 + by_0$ for some integers. Then $c = dk = a(kx_0) + b(ky_0)$. So $x = kx_0$ and $y = ky_0$ is a solution.

๐Ÿ’ก Events in the Second Half of Lemurian Development In the second half of the Lemurian epoch, three decisive events occurred: first, the Moon separated from the Earth, allowing the human form to solidify sufficiently for ego-incarnation. Second, the Luciferic beings penetrated the human astral body, bestowing the capacity for freedom and error simultaneously. Third, the Sons of Manas descended and implanted the spark of individual mind (Manas) i... From: steiner-GA90a Learn more: Explore all courses:
๐Ÿ“– The Directly Given (das unmittelbar Gegebene) The world-picture as it presents itself before any cognitive activity has been applied to it. It is an undifferentiated totality containing no distinctions of substance and attribute, cause and effect, matter and spirit, body and soul. These categories are all products of thinking. The directly given is what remains when every concept is stripped away. From: steiner-ga3 Learn more: Explore all courses:

๐Ÿ“– Vector Space A vector space $V$ over a field $F$ is a nonempty set with operations of addition and scalar multiplication satisfying the axioms: closure, associativity, commutativity, identity, inverses, and distributivity. From: adv_linalg Learn more: Explore all courses:
๐Ÿ“– Minimum A minimum is a point where a function reaches a local lowest value. At a minimum, the derivative is zero and the second derivative is positive. From: Beginner Calculus Learn more: Explore all courses:
๐Ÿ“ Cyclic Decomposition Theorem Every finitely generated module $M$ over a PID $R$ is isomorphic to $R^r \\oplus R/(a_1) \\oplus \\cdots \\oplus R/(a_k)$ where $a_1 | a_2 | \\cdots | a_k$. Proof: Apply the primary decomposition first, then decompose each primary component into cyclic modules. The divisibility chain follows from the uniqueness of elementary divisors.

๐Ÿ“– Point of Inflection A point of inflection is where a curve changes from concave up to concave down (or vice versa). At such points, $\\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 0$. From: Beginner Calculus Learn more: Explore all courses:
๐Ÿ“ The Action Axiom Human beings engage in purposeful behavior toward chosen goals. This is self-evident and cannot be denied without self-refutationโ€”the very act of denying it is itself purposeful action. Proof: The action axiom is apodictically certainโ€”true by the nature of human thought itself. To argue against it, one must: 1. Have a goal (refuting the axiom) 2. Choose means (constructing arguments) 3. Believe the argument can achieve the goal But this is precisely purposeful action. The denial... From: Human Action Learn more: Explore all courses:
๐Ÿ“ Area of Circle The area of a circle is proportional to the square of its diameter: $A \\propto d^2$ Proof: Proved using the Method of Exhaustion: inscribe and circumscribe polygons with increasing numbers of sides. As the number of sides approaches infinity, both polygon areas approach the circle's area. Since polygon areas scale with the square of linear dimensions, so does the circle's area.

๐Ÿ“– Ring A \\textbf{ring} $R$ is a set with two binary operations $+$ and $\\cdot$ such that: (1) $(R, +)$ is an abelian group with identity $0$; (2) Multiplication is associative; (3) Distributive laws hold: $a(b+c) = ab + ac$ and $(a+b)c = ac + bc$.

๐Ÿ’ก The Salvation of Humanity Through the Christ Impulse Without the intervention of the Christ Being, humanity would have descended ever deeper into material existence without the possibility of return to the spirit. The Christ impulse, entering Earth evolution at the Baptism in the Jordan and culminating at Golgotha, planted a new spiritual force into the Earth\ From: steiner-GA90a Learn more: Explore all courses:
