Find all the solutions of 2 cos 2x = 1 – 2 sinx in the interval 0 ≤ x ≤ 360°.

We know that having cos and sin functions in a question is going to cause us problems - we need a single function of x. So, step 1, we need to rewrite sin or cos in terms of the other. How do we choose wh...

Find the indefinite integral of sin(2x)(cos^2(x)) with respect to x.

We know from trigonmetric identities that cos(2x) = 2cos^2(x) -1, therefore cos^2(x) = 0.5(1+cos(2x)).

Subbing this in gives the following integrand: 0.5(1+cos(2x))sin(2x).

We can now split ...

A hollow sphere of radius r is being filled with water. The surface area of a hemisphere is 3pi*r^2. Question: When the water is at height r, and filling at a rate of 4cm^3s^-1, what is dS/dT?

By the chain rule ds/dt = ds/dr * dr/dv * dv/t. At a height of r, the water fills a hemisphere. So ds/dr = 6pir. dr/dv = 1/(dv/dr), so we need to find dv/dr. Students should have the formula for the v...

Solve the equation 5^(2x) - 12(5^x) + 35 = 0

The first step to solving this is equation is to notice that the equation is of a similar to the form of a quadratic equation: ay^2 + by + c  = 0 where a, b and c are constants. Next we introduce a new va...

Differentiate with respect to x: y = ln(x^2+4*x+2).

Let u = x2+4x+2 so y = ln(u).

Then dy/du = 1/u and du/dx = 2x+4.

Using the chain rule we have:

dy/dx = (dy/du)*(du/dx)

= (1/u)*(2x+4)

= (2x+4)/(x2+...
