Find the equation of the tangent to the unit circle when x=sqrt(3)/2 (in the first quadrant)

Unit circle: x 2 + y 2 = 1 when x = sqrt(3)/2: y 2 = 1 - (sqrt(3)/2) 2 y 2 = 1 - 3/4 y 2 = 1/4 y = 1/2 or -1/2 (first quadrant, so y is positive, i.e. y = 1/2) find gradient at (sqrt(3)/2, 1/2): x 2 + y 2 = ...

Integral of (2(x^3)-7)/((x^4)-14x)

Set f(x)= (x^4)-14x. f’(x)=4(x^3)-14=2(2(x^3)-7). Thus we can write (2(x^3)-7)/((x^4)-14x)=(1/2)f’(x)/f(x). The integral of f’(x)/f(x)=ln|f(x)|+c. Thus the integral of (2(x^3)-7)/((x^4)-14x) is (1/2)(ln|f(x)...
