Can I tell my latex-document only to give my first page a specific height and width?  I tried to use:  \documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{report} \setlength\paperheight{296.8cm}  \setlength\paperwidth{247.4cm}  \end{document}   The problem is, that it applies to all the pages in my latex-document and I only want it to apply to the first page with my pdf.   What can I do?
My document should be letterpaper and my attachments should be a4paper. I had high hopes for the \newgeometry command from the geometry package, but the documentation says      \newgeometry is almost similar to   \geometry except that \newgeometry   disables all the options specified in   the preamble and skips the   papersize-related options: landscape,   portrait and paper size options (such   as papersize, paper=a4paper and so   forth).   Any help is appreciated!
Does deleting iCloud photos affect them on devices? If I delete a photo from my iCloud will it also be removed from my devices that are connected to my account? If $x+y+z=xyz$, prove $\frac{2x}{1-x^2}+\frac{2y}{1-y^2}+\frac{2z}{1-z^2}=\frac{2x}{1-x^2}\times\frac{2y}{1-y^2}\times\frac{2z}{1-z^2}$ given that $x^2~,~y^2~,~z^2\ne1$  I came across this question in an ancient ($19$th century) Trigonometry book, and this is the method they use to prove the result (please note: I understand this method fully): Let $x=\tan A$ ,$~y=\tan B$ and $z=\tan C$ which is acceptable without any loss of generality. This means that we are saying that $$\tan A+\tan B+\tan C=\tan A\tan B\tan C$$ Consider $\tan (A+B+C)$: $$\tan (A+B+C)=\frac{\tan A+\tan B+\tan C-\tan A\tan B\tan C}{1- \tan A \tan B- \tan C \tan A - \tan B \tan C}$$ So if $~\tan A+\tan B+\tan C=\tan A\tan B\tan C~~$ then $~~\tan (A+B+C)=0$. Hence, let $~A+B+C=\pi$. Now consider $\tan (2A+2B+2C)$: $$\tan (2A+2B+2C)=\frac{\tan 2A+\tan 2B+\tan 2C-\tan 2A\tan 2B\tan 2C}{1- \tan 2A \tan 2B- \tan 2C \tan 2A - \tan 2B \tan 2C}=0$$ $$\implies \tan 2A+\tan 2B+\tan 2C=\tan 2A\tan 2B\tan 2C$$ $$\implies \frac{2\tan A}{1-\tan^2 A}+\frac{2\tan B}{1-\tan^2 B}+\frac{2\tan C}{1-\tan^2 C}=\frac{2\tan A}{1-\tan^2 A}\times\frac{2\tan B}{1-\tan^2 B}\times\frac{2\tan C}{1-\tan^2 C}$$ $$\therefore\frac{2x}{1-x^2}+\frac{2y}{1-y^2}+\frac{2z}{1-z^2}=\frac{2x}{1-x^2}\times\frac{2y}{1-y^2}\times\frac{2z}{1-z^2}$$ as required.  My question is, is there any other way of proving this without this rather heavy use of trigonometry? I also would prefer not to work through heaps of algabraic manipulation and expansion to obtain the required result, although if that's necessary I will put up with it ;) Thank you for your help. How to remove selected commit log entries from a Git repository while keeping their changes? I would like to remove selected commit log entries from a linear commit tree, so that the entries do not show in the commit log.  My commit tree looks something like:  R--A--B--C--D--E--HEAD   I would like to remove the B and C entries so that they do not show in the commit log, but changes from A to D should be preserved. Maybe by introducing a single commit, so that B and C become BC and the tree looks like.  R--A--BC--D--E--HEAD   Or, ideally, after A comes D directly. D' representing changes from A to B, B to C and C to D.  R--A--D'--E--HEAD   Is this possible? if yes, how?  This is a fairly new project so has no branches as of now, hence no merges as well. "register" keyword in C? What does the register keyword do in C language?  I have read that it is used for optimizing but is not clearly defined in any standard.  Is it still relevant and if so, when would you use it? What is a word for getting an award in a competition or being one of the top three? I am writing about a competition I won in which I got third place. I want to say that I am the first out of my school to get an award in this competition, with a third place award but that sounds a little bulky. What would be a short phrase or word to describe this. I am thinking maybe I can say "I placed in the competition" but I am not sure that will work. Cauchy principle value of $\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\sin(x)/(x-a)dx$ Setting CSS pseudo-class rules from JavaScript I'm looking for a way to change the CSS rules for pseudo-class selectors (such as :link, :hover, etc.) from JavaScript.  So an analogue of the CSS code: a:hover { color: red } in JS.  I couldn't find the answer anywhere else; if anyone knows that this is something browsers do not support, that would be a helpful result as well. If $U_1$, $U_2,\ldots,U_n$ are proper subspaces of a vector space $V$ over a field $F$, and $|F|\gt n-1$, why is $V$ not equal to the union of the subspaces $U_1$, $U_2,\ldots,U_n$? Strange math notation, vertical bar with parentheses. So I was reading "Resistance Distance" (D. J. Klein, M. Randić) (Journal of Mathematical Chemistry 12(1993)81-95) when I came up with strange notation.  From the paper:  The graph adjacency matrix is defined as: $$A_{xy} = (x|A|y) =  \begin{cases} 1/r_{xy} &amp; x \sim y \\ 0 &amp; \text{otherwise}  \end{cases}$$  The graph degree matrix of a graph is defined as:  $$\Delta_{xy} = (x|\Delta|y) = \delta(x,y) \sum_{z}^{\sim x} 1/r_{xy}$$  $$ |\phi) \equiv \sum_x |x)  $$  My main question is what does the combination of the vertical bar parentheses mean. Thanks in advance. I recently found a formula to help find a sequence given a generating function:  $(\frac{1}{1-x})^k=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\binom{n+k-1}{n}x^n, k \in \mathbb{N}$  I just wondered if there was a known proof for this, or if anyone knows of a way to prove it. I've found plenty of posts about changing the visibility of a block programatically.  My problem is the opposite. Given a block's ID/delta, how do I find out if it should be displayed at the current path?  I have a field collection that allows you to append a block using the Block Reference module (I preprocess the field collection and use my own template, so the logic has been taken away from the Block Reference module). It works, but I only want it to kick in if the "Show block on specific pages" rule says that block should be displayed.

Ordered N-Tuples as Cartesian Products of Indexed Families In Introduction to Topology, Mendelson defines the Cartesian Product of an Indexed Family as follows:     DEFINITION  Let $\{X_\alpha\}_{\alpha \in I}$ be an indexed family of sets. The product  of the sets $\{X_\alpha\}_{\alpha \in I}$,    written  $\prod_{x\in I}X_\alpha$ consists of all functions $x$ with domain the indexing set $I$ having the property that for each $\alpha \in I$, $x(\alpha)\in X_\alpha$.    Halmos, in Naive Set Theory, makes the following observation about this sort of product:     Ordered triples, ordered quadruples, etc., may be defined as families whose index sets are unordered triples, quadruples, etc.   However, it is not immediately apparent to me why this is true. It makes sense if we understand the prior assertions in Halmos that $\prod_{i \in I} X_i = X_i$ and that $\prod_{i \in I} X_i = X_a \times X_b$ when $I = \{a, b\}$, but these already pose difficulty for me.  Let $I = \{0, 1\}$, let $X_0 = \{A, B\}$, and let $X_1 = \{C, D\}$. Then by Mendelson's (and Halmos's) definitions, it would seem to me that . . .  $$\prod_{i \in I} X_ i = \{\{(0, A), (1, C)\}, \{(0, A), (1, D)\}, \{(0, B), (1, C)\}, \{(0, B), (1, D)\}\}$$  This would appear to me to be the set of all functions matching the definition given, but it is not equal to $X_0 \times X_1$. Moreover, extending this to a case where the index set $I$ is a triple, we would not end up with ordered triples, but with each subset of the product containing three ordered pairs.  When Halmos posits the equalities he does, the idea seems easy to grasp, but the peculiar wording of Mendelson's definition suggests something different to me.
