Let f be a function defined in the interval (1,\infty) as f(x)=\integral_{e} ^{x^2} t/ln(t) dt. Find the equation of the tangent line to the graph of f at the point whose x-coordinate is sqrt{e}.

The equation of the tangent line to the graph of the function y=f(x) at the point whose x-coordinate is sqrt{e} is given by y-y f =m(x-x f ), where x f =sqrt{e}, y f =f(sqrt{e})=integral_{e}^{e} t/ln(t) dt =...

Find the area bounded by the curve y=(sin(x))^2 and the x-axis, between the points x=0 and x=pi/2

First, use the identity cos(2x)=(cos(x))^2-(sin(x))^2 along with the identity (sin(x))^2+(cos(x))^2=1 to obtain the integral of 1/2*(1-cos(2x)) as it is not possible to integrate (sin(x))^2 straight off with...
