Prove or disprove: two consecutive rotations about two different axis are commutative. That is, is RuRv = RvRu? (Hint: For simplicity, you can assume that the axis u is the x-axis and v is the y-axis without loss of gnerality).

prove or disprove A Turing machine with two tapes is no more powerful than a Turing machine with one tape. (That is, both types of machines can compute the same set of functions.)

The cardinality of the set of all algebraic numbers is exactly the same as the cardinality of all real numbers.

Prove that all rotations and translations form a subgroup of the group of all reflections and products of reflections in Euclidean Geometry. What theorems do we use to show that this is a subgroup? I know that I need to show that the subset is closed identity is in the subset every element in the subset has an inverse in the subset. I don't have to prove associative property since that is already proven with Isometries. What theorems for rotations...

for unit quaternions used to represent rotations for 3D prove that : a) quaternion conjugate corresponds to rotation inverse ( Approach 1: negate the angle in the formula for converting from the axis-angle form and apply trigonometric identities. Approach 2: convincingly discusses what negating and axis description does in terms of rotation effects and in terms of the formula) b) negated quaternions represent the same rotation ( hint: add 2PI to the rotation angle in the axis angle formula, explain...
