    4U Revising Game

    Edit: Okay, my solution to the volumes question is wrong as I interpreted the question incorrectly This solution would fit the question "Find the volume of the solid formed by rotating the ellipse x^2/16 + y^2/4 = 1 around the y axis using the method of slicing" End edit I think that's right...

    4U Revising Game

    The more efficient way is to declare that it's an odd integral and say it's 0, instead of actually integrating it Let f(x) = tan x . ln (x^2 + e) f(-x) = tan -x . ln ([-x]^2 + e) = - tan x . ln (x^2 + e) = -f(x) Therefore f(x) is an odd function Therefore, the integral = 0 Haha guys, remember...

    Stupid Q - general solutions

    Okay, let's do this one step at a time We look at this: x = pi - pi/3, pi + pi/3, 3pi - pi/3, 3pi + pi/3, 5pi - pi/3, 5pi + pi/3 ... And we notice the alternating plus and minus signs Therefore we can simplify this to x = pi ± pi/3, 3pi ± pi/3, 5pi ± pi/3 ... Now look at the coefficients of...

    4U Revising Game

    I'm guessing it's a mathematical induction question since we have to show for n >= 2 When n = 2, u(2) = (2 + 27) / 3 = 29 / 3 > 3 Therefore it is true for n = 2 Assume it is true for n = k ie. u(k) = (2[u(k-1)]^3 + 27) / 3([u(k-1)]^2 > 3 Consider n = k + 1 u(k + 1) = (2[u(k)]^3 + 27) /...

    Trigonometric Results

    I suggest that you work more on these types of questions as these are the fundamental identies of trigonometry, and are essential in harder questions And lmfao "aMUSEd1977 Sucks The Cock"

    Hahaha "fake", I laughed when I read it in your working out Sif make up your own terms =p Ahh I write my solutions in Photoshop with a graphics tablet, then I use Paint Shop Pro to crop and decrease the colour depth And yea, that's the double/half angle formula

    Integration by parts. Find S Sin(x)Cos(x)

    conics2008 also asked for sin^m x.cos^m x, which should bring out the same results as sin^n x.cos^n x. The only difference is the parameter: in this case n instead of m; and this doesn't affect the results For recurrence formulae with both m and n requires two parameters, and this is out of the...
