    integration of sin .

    find the area btwn y=sinx and y=1/2 for this question what are the limits? 0-30, 30-150, 150 to 360 or 0-30, 30-150, 150-180, 180 to 360? also do you have to absolute the answer? if so how do you absolute things such as -(5/12)pi + root3/2 and also how do you solve the question thx in adv

    simple differentiation question

    second derivative and applications of calculus

    yea i know what both of you are saying but "It just means by considering the first derivative (the stationary points, and the point of inflextions) and the second derivative (the nature of them) draw the curve y=f(x)" they are not asking you to find that.. they have the 2 points and they want...

    Differentiation question

    YBK while your at it you might want to know: f'(x) = y = dy/dx (all notations) = m (gradient) = 0 (at stationary points) f''(x) = second derivative - shows the concavity of the curve when is positive it is concave down i think i was and concave up for the other one.. or the other way round =...

    Year 11 Parabola Question

    A=(-1,-3) B=(2,4) P=(x,y) then m of AP = (y+3)/(x+1) and m of BP = (y-4)/(x-2) perpendicular at -1 therefore m of AP x m of BP = -1 [(y+3)/(x+1)][(y-4)/(x-2)]=-1 y²-4y+3y-12/x²-2x+x-2=-1 -x²+x+2=y²-y-12 x²+y²-x-y=14

    Year 11 Parabola Question

    I dont think you use 2 point formula. it doesnt really make sense. the 2 point formula will just give you the gradient of the line joining the to points but not the locus of the point.
