Pandigitals in Trigonometric Functions.
by Daniel Hardisky

Find two Pan-digit numbers x, y (as shown)
such that F(x) = y and x y (as close as possible)
F(x) is Sin, Cos or Tan.

Fraction form Decimal form
761 239 458
109
 = 0,761239458

E.g. (in radians)
sin(0.124863975) = 0.124539768 544543...
tan(0.124785936) = 0.125437698 518344...

cos(0.761239458) = 0.723981564996210...
cos(0.761239485) = 0.723981546371089...
Note the two swaps between 58 & 85 and 64 & 46
Last two digits reversed!

Daniel Hardisky has some new ninedigital fractions to share.
(Many others can be found f.i. in Page 3 of this ninedigits section)

The equivalent fractions given here are quite interesting.
Each one of them uses all the digits from 1 to 9 one !

2
6
 = 3
9
 = 58
174

2
4
 = 3
6
 = 79
158


Arrange all the digits (1 to 9), each once
to form the following fractions : Examples

3 * 4
5 + 7
= 2 * 8
1 + 6 + 9
1

1 * 8
6 + 9
= 2 * 4
3 + 5 + 7
8
15

5 * 8
3 + 7
= 4 * 9
1 + 2 + 6
4

What integers are possible ?                  
1, 2, 4, 6
What fractions are possible ?
 1/2, 2/7, 8/15, 3/4, 4/5, 8/7, 8/5


And finally a challenge for our readers!
Arrange the digits from 1 to 9, each once
to form fractions as shown:

6 + 9
7 + 8
 = 3 + 4
2 + 5
 = 1

5 + 8
4 + 9
 = 3 + 6
2 + 7
 = 1

Can you find other combinations
with the last ratio > 1 ?

Separate ninedigitals in three groups of 2, 3 and 4 digits
and multiply them together

Presented by Alexandru Dan Petrescu

Separate ninedigitals in three groups of 2, 3 and 4 digits and multiply them together.
When the product is also ninedigital it should be one of the 205 entries of the table below.

Separate ninedigitals in three threedigit groups and multiply them together
Presented by Alexandru Dan Petrescu

Separate ninedigitals in three threedigit groups and multiply them together
When the product is also ninedigital it should be one of the 39 entries of the table below.

The ninedigital in line 34 is the largest product and was already noted by Janean Wilson.
Reference : Wonplate 95 - A ninedigital divertimento (second case)
At least we now have all 39 solutions!

Integral Triangles with Ninedigital Areas
Daniel Hardisky

" I have
a few of these integral triangles with ninedigital areas. These are oblique.
integral right triangles with ninedigital areas.
integral oblique triangles with two sides which are ninedigital numbers AND integer area.

So far I cannot find ninedigital numbers on all three sides of any triangle AND integer area.
We are working on this on my math page.

Checked with Wolfram Alpha for accuracy.

Find integral oblique triangles with the

Daniel Hardisky
  Triangles with rational cosines:
a = 2q(p–k), Cosϑ = p/q
b = q2 – k2
c = q2 + k2 – 2pk
–q < k < p
Let q = m2 + n2, p = m2 – n2
n2 = 2mn
or p = 2mn and n2 = m2 – n2
Then Sinϑ = (n2)/q
Area = 1/2abSinϑ = 1/2ab(n2)/q

Nine- and pandigitals with 5 multiples
Alexandru Dan Petrescu

We checked for ninedigitals and pandigitals having the greatest number of multiples
that are also ninedigitals and pandigitals.

For ninedigital numbers there is only one solution with 5 multiples.

Ninedigital
123456789
x2246913578
x4493827156
x5617283945
x7864197523
x8987654312

For pandigital numbers there are two solutions with 5 multiples.
One of them being the trivial case 1234567890 which is the above ninedigital x 10.
The other one being 1098765432.

Pandigital
1098765432
x22197530864
x44395061728
x55493827160
x77691358024
x88790123456

[ March 21, 2021 ]
Addendum by Patrick De Geest

The above found multiples return in an investigation I started some years ago.
The goal was to find all  Products of ninedigitals with pandigitals that result in squares .
The first few solutions are identical with the multiples from Petrescu's table.

123456789 x 1975308624 = 4938271562
123456789 x 3086419725 = 6172839452
123456879 x 3086421975 = 6172843952
- - -

And here I stopped the search at the time in favor of other projects.
Of course there is a relation that I will highlight here.
The relation shows up when variables are put in place !

123456789 [n] x 1975308624 [16n] = 4938271562 [4n or sqrt(16n2)]
123456789 [n] x 3086419725 [25n] = 6172839452 [5n or sqrt(25n2)]
123456879 [n] x 3086421975 [25n] = 6172843952 [5n or sqrt(25n2)]

Some logical questions that arise are for instance
1. Can you extend and/or complete the list ?
2. Are solutions abundant or rare ?
3. Exist there non nine- or pandigital squares ?
   Must the nine- and pandigital numbers share their factors?

Variations on the theme could be :

The product of two ninedigitals is a square.
123456789 [n] x 493827156 [4n] = 2469135782 [2n or sqrt(4n2)]
The multiplier need not be a nine- or pandigital
123456789 [n] x 6049382661 [49n] = 8641975232 [7n or sqrt(49n2)]
123456789 [n] x 7901234496 [64n] = 9876543122 [8n or sqrt(64n2)]

Ps. note that there are some sporadic solutions given by Peter Kogel. Study this page first if you're interested.
See my webpage The Nine Digits Page 2 under 'digital diversions'

A ninedigit problem Re-arrange the digits 1 to 9 to make a 9 digit number
Daniel Hardisky

Re-arrange the digits 1 to 9 to make
a 9 digit number. These numbers are always divisible by 9 since
the sum of the digits = 45 and is also divisible by 9.
Example: 619428753 / 9 = 68825417 (not the answer)

1. What is the largest prime found after dividing one of these 9
digit numbers by 9 ?
2.Which of these 9 digit numbers has the greatest number of
divisors ?

Daniel Hardisky

1. 987654231 / 9 = 109739359
2. 769152384 768 divisors

Of course more questions can be posed around this ninedigital and prime topic.

3. Can you find the pandigital equivalent for the above problems 1 and 2 ?

Solution by Alexandru Dan Petrescu [ March 12, 2021 ]
The pandigital equivalent of the two questions proposed by Daniel Hardisky.
P1) What is the largest prime found after dividing one of the pandigital numbers by 9 ?
A1) 9876541023 = 9 x 1097393447. (1097393447 being prime)
P2) Which of pandigital number has the greatest number of divisors ?
A2) 7691523840 has 1728 divisors. Factorization: 7691523840 = 2^8 x 3^2 x 5 x 7 x 11 x 13 x 23 x 29

In Pari/gp the number of divisors can be reproduced with the command
n=7691523840;
length(divisors(n));

4. What is the smallest prime that cannot divide any ninedigital or pandigital number ?

Solution by Alexandru Dan Petrescu [ March 13, 2021 ]
The smallest prime that cannot divide any ninedigital number is
44449
The smallest prime that cannot divide any pandigital number is
111119

In hindsight, now that we know Alexandru's solutions, we see that this problem
was already discussed in the past. Here is the source
Puzzle 926. pandigital and prime numbers
Nevertheless, a second opinion can't do any harm :)
Note also that both solutions belong to the same OEIS sequence A090148. What a coincidence!

Both numbers were also already registered in the Prime Curios! database.

From my collection of palindromic quasipronic numbers of the form n*(n+5)
may I present a remarkable repdigital number (see Index Nr 24)

Multiply this eleven digit repdigit 22222222222 with 22222222227
and we get the following palindrome with 21 digits

493827160595061728394

But what makes this equation beautiful is that left and right of the central 9
we unveil two curious pandigitals

4938271605 (9) 5061728394 = L (9) R

Moreover there is a surprising order in the arrangement of the ten digits
From left to right we start with 4 downto 0 intertwined with, also from left to right, the sequence from 9 downto 5.

4938271605 (9) 5061728394

The story is not at its end. What about that middle 9 ?

Divide the pandigital L = 4938271605 with our 9 and see what happens...
Indeed a new palindrome pops up nl. 548696845

And if we add the two pandigitals together we have
L + R = 99999999999, an eleven digit repdigit.

Have you noticed that L * 2 equals the largest pandigital number !
L * 2 =  9876543210 

Now, if we divide R by 2 surprisingly we see another pandigital number popping up !
R / 2 = 5061728394 / 2 =  2530864197 

Remember we started with 22222222222 and 22222222227 with a difference of 5.
Can we bring that number 5 into the game? Sure, we can. Here is how: divide L by 5
L / 5 = 4938271605 / 5 =  987654321 
and we end up with the largest ninedigital number!

But wait, have you tried R – L ?
We get the very first ninedigital  123456789  !

So many topics with a wow factor come together in this story.
Yet, I feel not every chapter is written... can you add more ?

When we put those nine digits in a row we get the number 194673285.
Anyone there who can turn this ninedigital into another curio ?

Finding one or more ninedigitals as a substring in the decimal expansion
of some ninedigital raised to a power p

What can we find in ninedigitals raised to the power 2

There are a lot of them but I will concentrate on those with the highest number of ninedigital substrings.
In the case of the power 2 this maximum is with 3 substrings.

Let us continue with minimal four ninedigital substrings. I found one with power 3.
It is a nice four in a row solution.

719647185932647507781421183

Now, looking for at least 5 ninedigital substrings we have to go to power 7 already.
Powers 4, 5 & 6 yield no records.

Two nice stepladder_5 solutions !

Let me thicken the plot at this point and leave behind us these rather trivial overlapping solutions.
Instead let me try to hunt for strictly NON_OVERLAPPING [ further on referred as NOV ] ninedigitals substrings.

A day later on [ November 10, 2022 ] Alexandru Petrescu sent in 'a' solution with nine ninedigital substrings.

“I have a solution for nine ninedigitals, but I don't know if
that power 300 is minimal. I didn't check all powers from 223 to 300! ”

On [ November 13, 2022 ] Alexandru Petrescu mailed me with the message that no solutions were
found with power 223 up to 271. But with power 272 he hit the final 9 NOV_substrings solution.
As a bonus notice that the last two solutions have palindromic powers (222 & 272).

{ From power 223 up to 271 none found. }

9 NOV_substrings with power 272 → first solution.
