A cubic curve has equation y x3 3x2 1. (i) Use calculus to find the coordinates of the turning points on this curve. Determine the nature of these turning points.

y′=3x2 −6x

use of y′ = 0

0= 3x^2 - 6x

0= 3x(x-2)

therefore either x=0 or x=2

when x=0 y=1, when x=2 y=-3

(0, 1) or (2, −3) 

y''=6x-6

when x=0 y''=6(...

How do I show that (cos^4x - sin^4x) / cos^2x = 1 - tan^2x

Start with the LHS:

(cos^4x - sin^4x) / cos^2x 

Recognise the difference of two squares on the top line, which simplifies to (cos^2x - sin^2x)(cos^2x + sin^2x):

(cos^2x - sin^2x)(cos^...
