    Some Circle Locus Questions

    I've nearly finished this exercise, but the final 3 questions I just plain do not get. 12) A point P(x,y) moves so that its distance from (3,4) is proportional to its distance from (-1,2). Find the equation of the locus of P if the origin is a point on the locus. 13) A is a point where...

    Locus Question

    Can somebody show me how to do this. We just started locus. A point is root 2 units from the line with equation y=x Why isn't it just y = plus/minus root 2

    Simultaneous equation help

    Thanks mate. I got another one here. For what values of c is the line y=x+c a tangent to the circle x^2 + y^2 = 4? Find the coordinates of the point of contact I have already found that c = plus or minus 2 root 2 But I'm not sure how to find the coordinates.

    Roots

    I have a question and I'm not sure how to solve it. Show that the roots of the equation 4(m+1)x^2 -4(m-1)x -3 = 0 (m does not equal -1) are real for all m. P.S. Can you take the discriminate of a discriminate?

    Yet again I need help

    Sorry to bther you guys but I wanna get all my homework done. I got a question on division of a line in a given ratio. I know how to get the co-ordinates of a point but I can't get the ratio. Given the poits A(-1,1) B(3,5), C(6,8) lie in one line find in what ratio a) B divides AC b) C...

    Angle Question

    Hi. I'm not sure what the question is trying to say (esp. the tangent part) Lines y=mx+2 and y=5x-9 intersect at an acute angle whose tangent is 2/5. Find the possible values of m. If somene could tell me what the tangent part means, I can do the rest of the question.

    Angle between 2 straight lines - Notes

    Hi. I have copied some notes in class and didn't get to finish them. If you can sort of help me complete the point, it would benefit my studies. Note: 1)If m1m2 = -1, the lines are perpendicular ie theta = 90degrees tan theta is undefined 2)If m1=m2, the lines are parallel ie theta =...

    Function Notation And Limit

    hermand ur a genius Edit. I got another question I'm stuck on. If f(x) = 2x -1, show that f(a^2) = f(-a^2) for all real a.

    Function Notation And Limit

    I seem to have real trouble doing this function notation question: Find the values of b if f(x) = 3x^2 -7x +1 and f(b) = 7 Also, how do you solve limit equations with more than one pronumeral ie. lim as h approaches 0 lim as h approaches 0 lim as x approaches c
