ABCD is a regular paralleogram, A=(2,1) B=(7,2) and C=(4,6), work out the gradient of the line CD and then work out the area of ABCD.

As its a parallelogram the gradient of CD will be the same as the gradient of AB so you just need to work out the gradient of AB using the formula (y 2 -y 1 )/(x 2 -x 1 ) which would be (2-1)/(7-2)= 1/5 or 0...

Differentiate arctan(x) with respect to x

We can set arctan(x) = y. Remember that arctan(x) is the inverse of tan(x), so we can take the tangent of both sides to give: tan(arctan(x)) = x = tan(y). Tan(x) has the standard derivative of sec^2(x) (whic...
