Express asin(x) + bcos(x) in the form Rsin(x+c), where c is a non-zero constant.

The trick to solving this is to use the trig identity sin(a+b) = sin(a)cos(b) + sin(b)cos(a) From the identity above, we can write rewrite Rsin(x+c) as follows: Rsin(x+c)...

Integral of a compound equation (or otherwise finding the area under a graph): f(x) = 10x*(x^(0.5) - 2)

This can be done 'by parts' or by expanding. In this case it would be easier to expand as it is possible to deal with terms individually here.
This becomes: 10xx1/2 - 10x2

By forming and solving a quadratic equation, solve the equation 5*cosec(x) + cosec^2(x) = 2 - cot^2(x) in the interval 0<x<2*pi, giving the values of x in radians to three significant figures.

To solve the equation given in the question, we must first express the given equation in terms of only one trigonometric function, i.e. either all in cosec or all in cot. The easiest route would be cosec,...
