How do I find where the stationary points of a function are?

If you were to draw a graph of the function, a stationary point would be a point on the graph where the gradient is zero, i.e the graph has no vertical slope. For example consider the function f(x) = 2. This...

How to find the equation of a tangent to a curve at a specific point.

The first thing to remember is that the tangent to the curve at a given point has the same gradient as the curve at that point. Let's consider the general case y=f(x) at a point c=(x1,y1). Step 1:We have to ...

Integrating cos^2(x)+5sin^2(x)

Firstly, note that cos^2(x)+5sin^2(x)= cos^2(x) +sin^2(x) +4sin^2(x). By trignoemtric identies, cos^2(x)+sin^2(x)=1 and so we can just integrate 1+4sin^2(x) since this is equal to cos^2(x)+5sin^2(x). Again, ...
