simple arthmetric stipulates that any integer from the set of numbers( including real, unreal, imaginary numbers) multplied by zero results in zero. we all know that likewise for infinity. but i think in this special circumstance it results in something else.
my hypothesis
let ý represent infinity,
hence 0 x ý = -1
proof:
we all recall from geometry the product of the gradient of perpendicular lines intersecting at right angles is -1.
now the gradient of lines is is similar to tanø.
the Y-axis gradient is infinity herein shown as ý. and the X-axis gradient is 0.
the angle of the y axis 90degrees and the angle of x axis is 0degrees. thus
since they are perpindicular the product should be negative.
mathematically as so:
tan(90) x tan(0) = -1
but
tan(90) = ý (infinity) and tan(0) = 0
hence
ý(infinity) x 0 = -1
can anyone proof me wrong mathematically????
