Given that x = 4sin(2y + 6), Find dy/dx in terms of x

x = 4sin(2y + 6)dx/dy = 4(2)cos(2y + 6)dx/dy = 8cos(2y + 6) ==> dy/dx = 1/8cos(2y + 6)sin 2 (2y + 6) + cos 2 (2y + 6) = 1cos(2y + 6) = √(1 - sin 2 (2y + 6))cos(2y + 6) = √(1 - x 2 /16)Hence, our final ans...

Find the area under the curve y=xexp(-x)

first recognise ‘area under’ = integrationfunction is a product so by partsset x=u; exp(-x)=dv/dx integral(udv/dx)=uv-integral(vdu/dx) du/dx =1; v=-exp(-x)ans=(x.-exp(-x))-integral(1.exp(-x)dx)ans=-xexp(-x)+...

Using z=cos(θ)+isin(θ), find expressions for z^n-1/z^n and z^n+1/z^n

We make use of De Moivre's Theorem which states that (cos( θ)+isin(θ))^n=cos(nθ)+isin(nθ). z^n-1/z^n=cos(nθ)+ isin(nθ)-cos(-nθ)- isin(-nθ)=cos(nθ)+ isin(nθ)-cos(nθ)+ isin(nθ) (by trig relationships)=2isin(nθ...
