I understood that though I was a bit confused on how to get the gradient. (Is it m= (ap^2-a)/2ap)?)For 3.c. just sub in the value of p and q into the points and find the gradient of OP and OQ. Use angle between the two lines.
isn't Mop = ap^2/2ap = p/2?I understood that though I was a bit confused on how to get the gradient. (Is it m= (ap^2-a)/2ap)?)
Nope.I understood that though I was a bit confused on how to get the gradient. (Is it m= (ap^2-a)/2ap)?)
Focus is S and O is origin. Always.LOL WAIT NVM
Misinterpreted O
x = 3apI have reached the part where I have gotten the x value (3ap) and the y value (2ap^2) though I'm not too sure how you can turn it into a Cartesian equation. (how to eliminate p)

i just realised i overcomplicated things.
Just another algebraic approach to it incase you need it for future use.
equating co-efficients?edit: derped hard.
expand RHS.
Is the answer 2 and -2?This was another I did not understand
Find the values of the real numbers A and B such that
x^4=(x^2+Ax+2)(X^2+Bx+2)
I know it has something to do with this though I do not understand what the term means or anything about this term.equating co-efficients?
