Evaluate the integral \int \frac{x}{x tan(x) + 1} dx using integration by substitution, hence evaluate \int \frac{x}{x cot(x) - 1} dx.

(STEP I 2017, Q1i)For the first part, the hint u = x sin(x) + cos(x) is given. It can be seen that this is the denominator once the fraction is multiplied by cos(x) / cos(x). The answer is ln(x sin(x) + c...

Find h(x), for x≠0, x≠1, given that: h(x)+h(1/(1−x))=1−x−1/(1−x)

In order to do this question, we need to find some way of eliminating the h(1/(1−x)), so that we are left with h(x), thus solving it. One way to do this, is to set up simultaneous equations. We may need t...

Let p and q be different primes greater than 2. Prove that pq can be written as difference of two squares in exactly two different ways.

Without loss of generality claim p > q.Now, we try to write pq in the form pq = a2-b2 where a and b are non-negative integers.If b = 0, then pq = a2. But p and q are di...
