    Integration Question

    Ahh, genius. Thank you very much Ngai, you have put my mind at ease. I'll have to remember that kind of manipulation for the future.

    Integration Question

    Thanks for taking a crack at it will. I just about got as far as you did but I wasn't nearly so optimistic. This question itself is only out of 2 or 3 marks so I'm doubtful about it being as epic as that. My three main problems are: -Techniques I've tried (namely int. by parts) are long...

    Answers are cheap (but impressive :D)... Anyone know how to connect the dots?

    Integration Question

    I was doing a past 3/4 yearly paper from my school (2003) and the last question really stumped me. Basically it was: Evaluate &int; ln(1 +tanx) dx {between 0 and &pi;/4} (*note) in the part just before that you had to show that: &int; ln(1 +tanx) dx {between 0 and &pi;/4} = &int...

    You could try a library.

    Is this possible??

    If it is a rhombus you can work with symmetry and isoc. &Delta;'s.

    Alternate Schoolies

    It's not to late to organise schoolies. Me and a bunch of my mates hadn't done anything for it until a couple weeks ago. We scored a beach front property, $440 (roughly) each and 300 meters from the town centre. If we can do that well with our poor organisation so can you.

    Volumes q

    Here you can use the area of the triangle = 1/2absin&theta; or just half base times height since it is a right angled triangle. We have to formulate the area of each triangle in terms of the hypotenuse (since the hypotenuse falls within the bounds of the circle). Area of triangle = 1/2a.a =...

    What elective are you choosing?

    We have to do quanta to quarks but it's the one I'd most like to do anyway. I'm looking forward to it.

    Arts/Medicine Question

    What about list B courses though. Generally, are they allowed in arts/medicine?

    Arts/Medicine Question

    A couple of questions: Is it possible to do more that the required 66 credit points i.e. has anyone tried to push for 84 (for a double major)? If someone is doing a major in a List A course does the combined degree allow them to then study a list B course? (can a person study mathematics...

    Errors!

    I'm also quite terrible with my careless mistakes. On our first 4U exam I lost three marks for doing this: &theta; - ( -&theta; ) = 0 ... Is it possible to make a more elementary mistake???

    derivative trig question

    btw, where did you get that equation from? I don't actually think you can graph it. Given that -1&le;sinx&le;1 for all x &isin; R , and -1&le;cosy&le;1 for all y &isin; R. hmm...

    please help me solve this problem...please do help.

    Our clas hasn't quite finished our second topic yet. My chem class is even further behind.

    I think that's pretty much it. &int; 2<sup>x/2</sup> dx convert it to base e to make your life less difficult ----> e<sup>u</sup> = 2 log<sub>e</sub>2=u hence 2 = e<sup>ln2</sup> &int; 2<sup>x/2</sup> dx = &int; (e<sup>ln2</sup>)<sup>x/2</sup> dx = &int; e<sup>(x.ln2)/2</sup> dx...

    derivative trig question

    This is outside the 3U course. In order to do it you want to use implicit differentiation. sinx + cosy = 5 d/dx(sinx + cosy) = 0 cosx - dy/dx.siny = 0 dy/dx.siny = cosx dy/dx = cosx/siny you'll probably want an explanation of implicit differentiation to grasp that fully. I'll...

    I've been doing that coroneous revision set of 100 questions. It's a hell of a lot of integration.
