Draw the triangle. BC is opposite to the angle given and we need to find the hypotenuse. Using SOHCAHTOA, we must use sine. Rearrange to find hypotenuse and then put the numbers in. Length AC = 12cm

I like to separate problems into small steps that are easy to follow. In this example these would be: STEP 1: make y the subject (meaning only y on the Left hand side - LHS); 3y = -5x - 3. STEP 2: divide ...

Because we have a product of two functions of x, our first instinct is to apply integration by parts. Let u = e^(2x) and v' = cos(x). We then integrate v' to find v = sin(x) and differentiate u to find u'...

The first step in finding any turning point is to differentiate. To do this, we muiltiply x by its power and drop the power by 1. so in this senario we multiply the -2x by 2 giving us -4x and the power be...

First take the general form of a quadratic equation, ax^2+bx+c=0, this can be written in completed square form, (x+b/2a)^2-(b/2a)^2+c/a=0, rearranging gives, x=-b/2a +/-(b^2/4a^2-c/a)^1/2, which can be wr...
