Integrate y with respect to x, where y = cos(x)/[1+tan^2(x)]

y = cos(x)/sec2(x) = cos3(x)

y = cos(x)(1-sin2(x)) = cos(x) - cos(x) sin2(x)

-> sin(x) - sin3(x)/3 + c

I'm trying to integrate f(x)=sin(x) between 0 and 2 pi to find the area between the graph and the axis but I keep getting 0, why?


How can do you factorize the equation x^2+6x+8


A curve has equation y = 2x^5 + 5x^4 1 . (a) Find: (i) dy/ dx [2 marks] (ii) d^2y/ dx^2 (b) The point on the curve where x ¼ 1 is P. (i) Determine whether y is increasing or decreasing at P, giving a reason for your answer.


Prove that (1-cos2x)/sin(2x) = tan(x) where x ≠ nπ/2
