Integrate tan(x)^2 with respect to x

sin(x)2 + cos(x)2 = 1 divide by cos(x)2 tan(x)2 + 1 = sec(x)2 therefore tan(x)2 = sec(x)2 - 1 integral of sec(x)2 - 1 rwt x = tan(x) - x + C therefore the integral of tan(x)2 rwt x = tan(x) - x + C

Ball P is shot at 18m/s horizontally from the top of a 32m mast. Ball Q is shot at 30m/s at an angle 'a' to the horizontal from the bottom of the mast. They collide mid-air. Prove that cos'a' = 3/5


The curve with the equation: y=x^2 - 32sqrt(x) + 20 has a stationary point P. Find the coordinates of P.


Find the exact solution of the equation in its simplest form: 3^x * e^4x = e^7.


Please Simplify: (2x^2+3x/(2x+3)(x-2))-(6/x^2-x-2))
