Gradient of line 3x+5y=7: 5y=-3x+7, y=-3/5x+7/5 gradient = -3/5 Gradient of perpendicular line: 5/3 Perpendicular line with points: y+3=5/3(x+2), 3y+9=5(x+2), 3y+9=5x+10, 5x-3y+1=0

Using the chain rule, we let u = sin(x) and v = x^2. Then dy/dx = udv/dx + vdu/dx. dv/dx = 2x and du/dx = cos(x). So dy/dx = sin(x)2x + x^2cos(x).

Let y = arctan(x). Then x = tan(y).

Differentiate using the chain rule and rearrange: d(x)/dx = d(tany)/dx So 1 = sec^2(y) * dy/dx dy/dx = 1/sec^2(y)

But from identity sin^2(y) + cos^2(y) = ...

[Draw Diagram] We are given the inital velocity u=11.2m/s and we know the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s^2. We need to find the distance 's'. When the stone is at its highest point the velocity wil...

In this example instead of multiplying out 7 brackets it is useful to use the chain rule, which is used to differentiate the composition of more than one function. If we let what is inside the bracket equ...
