A typical GCSE question will give you an equation in the from ax² + bx + c, x² - 8x + 15 = 0 for example, and ask you to solve the possible value of X. To do this we need to split th...

There are various ways to solve simultaneous equations. The two easiest are by elimiation and by substitution. By Elimation When solving by elimination you want to ensure that you ...

This is a common question asked by my students when they first learn about trigonometry. First draw a unit circle on the plane and the graphs of sine and cosine next to it. The circle obviously has 360 de...

First step is to understand all the notation, i.e. the prime for derivative. We then need to understand that the derivative is the gradient of the tangent at a point. In this case at the point P we can fi...

a)   f'(x)=uv'+vu'     if    f(x)= uv

u=2x  u'=2  v=sin(x)   v'=cos(x)

g'(x)=2x cos(x) +2sin(x)

b)   g'(π) = 2π cos(π)+2sin(π)  = 2 π (-1) + 2 (0)

      g'(π) = -2π
