Firstly expand the brackets to make (y+3)(y+3)Next I find it easy to remember that you don't times anything together that's in the same bracket when expanding. So - y x y = y^2y x 3 = 3y3 x y = 3y3 x 3 = ...

Problems like this usually look something like: Find the differential of (x² e^2x). The product rule is used when we have to differentiate two different functions multiplied by eachot...

The key word in the question is 'shortest'. The shortest distance from a point to a line is always the perpendicular distance. If we calculate the appropriate angles and lengths/distances, we can use trig...
