Express '6cos(2x) +sin(x)' in terms of sin(x).

6cos(2x) +sin(x).Using the double angle formula for cosine (or otherwise), cos(2x) = cos(x)cos(x) - sin(x)sin(x) .cos(2x) = cos^2(x) - sin^2(x) .Hence, 6cos(2x) +sin(x) = 6(cos^2(x) - sin...

Find the x and y coordinates of the turning points of the curve 'y = x^3 - 3x^2 +4'. Identify each turning point as either a maximum or a minimum.

The first part of the problem is solved by differentiating once and equating this to zero:
y = x^3 - 3x^2 +4 .dy/dx = 3x^2 - 6x .dy/dx = x(3x - 6...

Calculate the derivative of the following function: f(x)=cos(3x))^2

The answer can be found by using the chain rule and simple substitution as well as basic knowledge of differentiation.f’(x)= -6cos(3x)sin(3x)

What are the most important trig identities we need to know?

cos^2(A) + sin^2(A) = 1, sin(A+B) = sinAcosB + cosAsinB, cos(A+B) = cosAcosB - sinAsinB, sin2A = 2sinAcosA (if A = B), cos2A = cos^2(A) - sin^2(A) (if A = B), cos2A = 1 - 2sin^2(A) => sin^2(A) = 1/2(1 ...
