How can you find out if two lines expressed in their vector form intersect?

Let the lines be:

r1 = (a, b, c) + t(d, e, f)

r2 = (g, h, i) + s(j, k, l)

Since t and s above are variables and the rest of the letters are constants, the only w...

Find the equation of the tangent to the curve y = 2x^2 + x - 1 at the point where x = 1.

To get the required tangent equation we need its gradient and the coordinates of a point it passes through. We can then substitute it into the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1). 1. ...
