Given that y = arcos(x/2) find dy/dx of arccos(x/2) and hence find the integral from 0 to 1 of arcos(x/2)dx

a)    First we can rewrite y=arccos(x/2) as cosy = x/2 which allows us to use implicit differentiation to easily differentiate each side. Taking d/dx of each side gives u...

Find the tangent to the curve y=(3/4)x^2 -4x^(1/2) +7 at x=4, expressing it in the form ax+by+c=0.

In general, the equation of a line is y-y0=m(x-x0), where m is the gradient and (x0,y0) is a point on the line. We need to find the gradient and a point on our tangent. Step 1: Find gradient. Since our ta...
