How do I remember what trig functions differentiate to?

You need to remember some ‘rules’:if it has the ‘co-‘ prefix, the derivative will be negative (e.g. cos x -> -sin x)if it has the ‘-sec’ suffix, the derivative will only include itself (e.g. cosec x -&...

solve the following definite integral by decomposition into partial fractions: \int_{1}^{2}{\frac{1}{x^2+x}}dx

\frac{1}{x^2+x}=\frac{A}{x} + \frac{B}{x+1}, 1=A(x+1)+Bx, let x=-1: 1=-B, B=-1let x=0: 1=A, A=1Hence, \int_{1}^{2}{\frac{1}{x^2+x}dx} = \int_{1}^{2}{\frac{1}{x}dx} - \int_{1}^{2}{\frac{1}{x+1}dx}=[ln(x)-l...

Consider the function y = x.sin(x); differentiate the function with respect to x

Using the product rule :u = x, so du/dx = 1
v = sin(x), so dv/dx = cos(x)
Therefore dy/dx = v(du/dx) + u(dv/dx) So dy/dx = sin(x) + x.cos(x)
