How do you divide polynomials? How do you do it with remainder?

I'll show you on a whiteboard or a piece of paper, there's a nice grid method you can use which is a lot easier (I think) than the weird long division way I got taught in school.

How do I calculate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a 2x2 matrix, and what is the point of doing this calculation?


Differentiate sin(2x)/x^2 w.r.t. x


Differentiate y = (sin(x))^2 (find dy/dx)


Perhaps an introduction to integration with a simple integral, e.g. the integral of x^2
