Solve the following inequality: 2x^2 < x+3

2x2 < x+3, 2x2- x - 3 < 0, (2x - 3) (x + 1) < 0, Positive quadratic. Roots: x = -1 and x = 3/2, Therefore, x takes values greater than -1 and less tha...

What is the polar form of the equation: x^2+y^2 =xy+1

Using Pythagoras, x2 + y2 = r2.Using basic trigonometry, x = rsinθ and y = rcosθ.
xy + 1 = r2sinθcosθ + 1 = (1/2)r2sin2θ + 1

Give the general solution to y'' - 3y' + 2y = 4x

note: y' is often written as dy/dx, this doesn't change the question at all so no need to worry. Same for y'' and d2y/dx2.All second-order differential equations that don't have 0 on...

Let A, B and C be nxn matrices such that A=BC-CB. Show that the trace of A (denoted Tr(A)) is 0, where the trace of an nxn matrix is defined as the sum of the entries along the leading diagonal.

This is the type of question which requires some out of the box thinking. A sketch is presented below: We start by defining A = (aij), B = (bij) and C = (ci...

Express sin(5theta) in terms of sin(theta) and powers of sin(theta) only.

Consider the expression (cos(theta) + i*sin(theta))5 . (Where theta a real parameter).By De Moirve's theorem, we know this expression is equivalent to cos(5theta) + i sin(5theta).We can also ap...
