Calculate the indefinite integral of xsinx

They key is to integrate by parts, set u = x, u' = 1, v' = sinx, v = -cosx
So, integral(xsinx) =uv - integral(u'v)+c = -xcosx - integral(-cosx) +c = -xcosx +sinx + c
which is the answer

Given y = 9x + 1/x, find the values of x such that dy/dx=0


What is Mathematical Induction?


A curve has equation y = x^3 - 3x^2 -24x + 5, find the x co-ordinates of the two stationary points of the curve and hence determine whether they are maximum or minimum points.


Given x=Sqrt(3)sin(2t) and y=4cos^2(t), where 0<t<pi. Show that dy/dx = kSqrt(3)tan(2t).
