Here you need to use the formula that the differential of e^f(x), where f(x) is any function, is equal to f'(x)e^f(x). So for our function we differentiate xsinx using product rule to give sinx + xcosx. ...

This question requires you to use the trigonometric identity sin(A+B)=sinAcosB + sinBcosA. The difficulty in this problem is noticing that you need to substitute 2A for A+A and then you can simply put thi...

Since the equation for y is a composite function (applying one function to another function) we need to use the chain rule to answer this question. Firstly let u = x^2+1 . This allows us to write y = 2u^3...

Completing the square is a process used to put a quadratic curve into a particularly nice form. The form we want is y(x) = r(x+s)^2 + t for some numbers r,s, and t. A 'general' quadratic we would expect t...

To integrate this, we use the product rule. Think of it as intergrate [ 1 x ln (x)]. As by the product rule we chose one to intergrate and one to differentiate. We intergrate 1 to get x. We differentiate ...
