    MX2 Integration Marathon

    I know @vernburn has correctly split the interval. However, periodicity actually made the calculation easier rather than causing trouble. Depending on how you express the antiderivative, the constant of integration may be different.

    MX2 Integration Marathon

    Periodicity is not the cause of this trouble. If you integrate cos x, then you get sin x which is periodic. However, the substitution still works as usual. The cause of this trouble is a different constant of integration at different intervals. Instead of +c for all real numbers, you actually...

    It's not too hard to get the antiderivative in terms of elementary function...but the evil is in the substitution of upper and lower limits.😈 \int_{\frac{\pi}{3}}^{\frac{2021\pi}{2}}\frac{1}{2-\cos x}dx

    MX2 Integration Marathon

    This is the product of two functions. You cannot substitute and multiply this way.

    another one Feel free to share your attempt. \int_{\frac{1}{4}}^{\frac{1}{2}}\sin\left(x^{x}+\ln x\right)\cos\left(x^{x}-\ln...

    Your approach is correct but unfortunately a factor of 1/2 is missing somewhere. \int_{-\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}}^{\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}}\frac{\sqrt{64x^{6}-16x^{4}+x^{2}}}{\left(\sqrt{1-16x^{4}}+\sqrt{12x^{2}-48x^{4}}\right)\left(1+\pi^{x}\right)}dx=\frac{\pi}{48}-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{32}\pi+\frac{1}{8}

    Past HSC papers (pre 1995)

    It seems harder 3U and graphs are covered in Part IA and IB respectively. http://www.angelfire.com/ab7/fourunit/4usyllabus2.pdf

    MX2 Integration Marathon

    a new one...shouldn't be too hard:p Feel free to share your attempt. Find the area bounded by x-axis and the curve y=\frac{\sqrt{64x^{6}-16x^{4}+x^{2}}}{\left(\sqrt{1-16x^{4}}+\sqrt{12x^{2}-48x^{4}}\right)\left(1+\pi^{x}\right)}.

    This one should be easier. \int_{\frac{\pi}{10}}^{\frac{3\pi}{20}}\ln\left(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3\tan x-1}{1-3\tan^{2}x}\right)dx

    Once the substitution is uncovered, it is not much fun.

    MX2 Integration Marathon

    I think you ignored the base of the log and got (pi/12) ln 6.

    MX2 Integration Marathon

    Anyone has guessed the substitution?
  13. S

    MX2 Integration Marathon

    This one should be harder. I think I've masked the underlying substitution quite well.:cool: \int_{-\frac{\pi}{12}}^{\frac{\pi}{6}}\frac{\log_{6}\left(\frac{6+2\sqrt{3}\tan x}{5-\sqrt{3}-\left(1+\sqrt{3}\right)\tan x}\right)}{\sin^{2}\left(\frac{\pi}{3}-x\right)+\cos^{2}x}dx

    MX2 Integration Marathon

    It is very quiet recently.:( Feel free to share your attempt. \int_{0}^{\pi^{2}}\frac{1+\cos\sqrt{x}}{\sin\sqrt{x}}dx=4\pi\ln2

    Questions about the sample paper on vectors from ACEHSC.net

    I guess this is a typo. I think the whole page is poorly worded.

    Can you use induction for non induction qs?

    I agree induction is fine. By the way, we have common "difference" in AS and common "ratio" in GS.
  17. S

    Can you use induction for non induction qs?

    It is just the derivative of a finite GS. As there is a finite number of terms, why do you have the concern of convergence?

    HSC Maths Ext2 Questions + Answers

    f is continuous and differentiable everywhere in its domain.

    Nice proof

    If the decomposition step is only valid for positive integer values of x, then it's simply not continuous and therefore not differentiatable.
