A curve has parametric equations x = 2 sin θ, y = cos 2θ. Find y in terms of x

  1. y = cos2θ . 2) cos2θ = 1 - 2sin²θ. 3) x = 2sinθ. 4) x² = 4sin²θ. 5) (1/2)x² = 2sin²θ. 6) y = 1 - (1/2)x².

Differentiate y=ln(2x^2) with respect to x


Sketch, on a pair of axes, the curve with equation y = 6 - |3x+4| , indicating the coordinates where the curve crosses the axes, then solve the equation x = 6 - |3x+4|


Solve: 2 sin(2x) = (1-sin(x))cos(x) for 0<x<2*Pi and give any values of x, if any, where the equation is not valid
