bought the x inside the square root by squaring it ( thus it became x^2(x+1) in the sqrt )

appartently he is too good for product rule, though it is interesting method which I havent seen before

Sorry, I didn't see the function correctly.
(x+2)^2 = 4-x^2
Since I've caused you some confusion, i'll post the solution

x^2 + 4x +4 = 4-x^2
2x^2 +4x = 0
x=0 and -2. Check by subbing it back into each function to make sure they yield the same value. In this case they do.

Now it's
You can calculate the first one quite easily. It's just 1/4 of the area of a circle. The radius is 2, so pi(2)^2 / 4 = pi
Now it's

The integral isn't hard to find, i'll assume you know how to do it.
The answer should be pi-2
okay think I got it now. yes I did get (pi - 2) units^2

so for the quarter of a circle, you don't use integration as it won't give you the exact answer of pi. (requires the user to look at a different angle when solving this question)

I think the answer for the book is wrong on this question:

Integrate through indefinite integral: (2x + 5)^7

Use:





We better inform Sir Isaac Newton that integration somehow changed into differentiation. How is it definite?

I made this question up. ie. it's not from anywhere.
60 degrees. (180 / 6) = 30 degrees, its 2 o clock - 30*2

note: divide by 6 because there are 6 hours within the 180 degrees. i.e 1,2,3,4,5,6

What happened to MrBrightside's marathon thread? Anyway,

New Question:



Find the area of the shaded region.
What's the answer in exact value??
-

If we square x, don't we square
Wouldn't it be (Don't go harsh on me)




Question.
a) The sum of the radii of two circles is 100cm. If one of the circles has a radius of x cm, show that the sum of the areas of the two circles is given by


b) Find the value of x for which A is least.
