How do you algebriacally slolve for the time constant (tau) using the two equations provided?

Hi. I still don't get it. I'm not sure what sin and cos have to do with it. But either way, I'm still stuck in the same place. I don't know how you got from steps 3 and 4 to the next step. One is for the x-axis and the other for the y-axis. How did they end up merged together? If you apply the Pythagorean theorem, you get either:v = sqrt{(vcos) 2 + (vsin) 2} Then what? Or you get:v = sqrt{(m1v1/m1+m2)2 + (m2v2/m1+m2)2} Now what? That "adding" step just looks like the Pythagorean theorem, with v2 being the c in c2 = a2 + b2, but what is going on on the other side of the equation? I don't understand how in the denominator you went from:(m1 + m2)2 + (m1 + m2)2 to(m1 + m2)2It seems to me like (m1 + m2)2 + (m1 + m2)2 = 2(m1 + m2)2 Explain as if I didn't understand the algebra, because I think that's the issue here.
