y = 4sin(x)cos(3x) . Evaluate dy/dx at the point x = pi.

By product rule:u = 4sin(x) v = cos(3x)du/dx = 4cos(x) dv/dx = -3sin(3x)dy/dx = u (dv/dx) + v (du/dx)dy/dx = 4sin(x) * -3sin(3x) + cos(3x) * 4cos(x)dy/dx = -12sin(x)sin(3x) + 4cos(x)cos(3x)Evaluate at x = pi...

What is a logarithm?

We can explain this by taking a simple power equation such as 2 3 = 8 and setting each number as an unknown variable. For instance 2 3 = x is solved by cubing 2, x 3 = 8 is solved by taking the cube root of ...

Use integration to find the exact value of [integral of] (9-cos^2(4x)) dx

you cannot integrate cos^2(4x) without making substitutions first. Use the cos^2(x) + sin^2(x) = 1 identity with the cos(2x)=cos^2(x)-sin^2(x), rearrange to get the identity cos(2x) = 2cos^2(x) - 1, then cos...

Solve the equation sec^2(A) = 3 - tan(A), for 0<= A <= 360 (degrees)

Using simple trig identities, we know tan^2(A) + 1 = sec^2(A).Substituting for sec^2(A) into our equation, we get: tan^2(A) + 1 = 3 - tan(A).Moving this over to one side, we get the quadratic in terms of tan...
