How can I remember when a turning point of a function is a maximum or a minimum?

The key is to look at the first and second derivatives of that function. Remember that a turning point always has the first derivative equal to zero. Then, the sign of the second derivative indicates if t...

Using the substitution x = 2cosu, find the integral of dx/((x^2)(4-x^2)^1/2), evaluated between x=1 and x=sqrt(2).

Starting with x=2cosu, rearrange for u to get u=arccos(x/2), then find the upper and lower limits of the integral. We find that our lower limit goes from 1 to pi/3, ad our upper limit goes from root 2 to ...
