Integrate f(x) = 1/(1-x^2)

1/(1-x2) can be split into the partial fractions A/(1+x) + B/(1-x), where A and B are real constants, which when evaluated by multiplying the equation 1/(1-x2) = A/(1+x) + B/(1-x) th...

Does the following matrix A = (2 2 // 3 9) (upper row then lower row) have an inverse? If the matrix A^2 is applied as a transformation to a triangle T, by what factor will the area of the triangle change under the transformation?

The answer to the first part is that the matrix does have an inverse. This is found by finding the determinant of the matrix from the formula ad - bc (for some matrix ( a b // c d ) ) to get the ...

Where does Euler's Formula come from?

Euler's Formula is: eix = cos(x) + isin(x)

This identity comes from the Maclaurin expansion of the exponential function. The resulting maclaurin series is a power series in x with odd te...

Integrate x^2sin(x) between -pi and pi

It is possible to solve this question using integration by parts. However, we note that sin(x) is an odd function, meaning that sin(-x) = -sin(x). Thus x2sin(x) is also an odd function. This me...
