This result comes from using a trig identity and the quotient rule. First, we write tan(x) as sin(x)/cos(x). Then we apply the quotient rule. After doing the standard derivatives, the numerator of our fra...

Use the product rule d(u.v)/dx = u.(dv/dx) + v(du/dx). Calculate the LHS as such first. (Demonstrate on whiteboard.) Then calculate the RHS. (Demonstrate on whiteboard.) Group the dy/dx terms on one side ...

When we find dy/dx we find the gradient of the curve at (3,1). Start by differentiating the left hand side (LHS) like so.. (whiteboard). Remember every time we differentiate a y value we multiply by dy/dx...

2(x+3)/(x+1)

One can treat complex multiplication as polynomial multiplication, but remembering i^2 = -1. To perform polynomial multiplication, multiply each term one by one, then add them together. Hence (3+i)(1+2i) ...
