Derivative of 2xsin(x): 2sin(x)+2xcos(x)Set derivative equal to zero: 2sin(x)+2xcos(x)=0Solve: only valid when x=0Therefore the only stationary point is (0,0) ie the origin.

The stationary points on a curve are the exact point of a maximum, minimum or point of inflection. They can be defined as points where the gradient, dy/dx = 0. You can show this by drawing a tangent to th...

For this we have to use trignometric identities, e.g Tan(x)= sin(x)/cos(x), sin²(x) + cos²(x) = 1, 1/sin(x) = cosec(x)

The general line equation in the Cartesian plane is given by ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are given constants. This means that all (x_0, y_0) points that are situated on the line s...
