A curve has equation x^2 + 2xy – 3y^2 + 16 = 0. Find the coordinates of the points on the curve where dy/dx =0

We would do this by differentiating everything individually so to differentiate xwe multiply the xby the power which is 2 and then take the power down by 1 to make 2x. To differe...

Show, by counter-example, that the statement "If cos(a) = cos(b) then sin(a) = sin(b)" is false.

Let a=60 and b=300.

Then cos(a)=cos(60)=0.5 and cos(b)=cos(300)=0.5, therefore cos(a)=cos(b).

Then sin(a)=sin(60)=sqrt(3)/2 and sin(b)=sin(300)=-sqrt(3)/2, therefore sin(a)=sin(b) is incorre...

Differentiate y(x)=x^2 + 2x + 1, find the turning point and classify it as minimum or maximum.

dy/dx=2x + 2

Turning point is where dy/dx=0, so when x = -1

When x=-1, y=0.

d^2y/dx^2=2 > 0 therefore minimum.
