    Integration Problem

    well i integrate the function (2b-a/h)^2 x^2 + (2b-a/h)2ax + a2 And then i arrive at an equation whihc looks like this when i sub in B1 and B2 as functions of a^2. ie a^2=B1/pi therefore a=sq rt B1/pi ...... my answer is wrong where its h/3 (4B2-1B1-4sqrtB1B2 h + 6 sqrt B2B1)

    Integration Problem

    Integration Problem- Need to find the volume of a frustum, with circular top and bottom B1 and B2, where h is height. I need to derive this as the formula h/3 (B1+B2+ sq rt (B1*B2)) i found the eqn for the line and used the formula pi (y^2) dx to find the area, but i get stuck. Help please.

    Conics in practice help.

    Show that the parabola with equation y^2=4ax has the optical property that a ray of light parallel to the acis of a parabolic mirror passes through the focus afterreflection from the mirror.

    another conics Q

    The normal at a point P(at^2,2at) on the parabola y^2=4ax intersects the x axis at Q. Find in terms of t, the coordinates of Q. Find also the equation of the locus of the mid-point of PQ. Show taht the locus is a parabola for all t doesnt equal 0 ah so hard.
