    Very Experienced HSC Mathematics Tutor @ Northmead

    Re: Very experienced HSC tutor at Burwood, 98 for 3u, 96 for 4u This guy is a genius ! I can not begin to emphasise how great this guy is ! Completing my HSC in 2010, I had never been tutored and so was always worried about who was going to tutor me, and whether he’d do a good job or not...

    Circle Geometry Question

    That is a terrible drawing :D And he's talking about the external angles of a cyclic quadrilateral. He is right :)

    Private Tutoring or Coaching College?

    Imo, and this is my opinion. Get yourself a solid private tutor. There are many out there.

    ANOTHER Parametric Equations of Parabola question -- need help

    Yes well. It comes from experience. When you're doing 4u parametrics you learn a lot. My best advice is to factorise whenever possible. Make every line of working out neater and neater. Try to eliminate ugly fractions immediately. Looking at : (2a)p^4 + (3a)p²+a, you can see how I put the...

    ANOTHER Parametric Equations of Parabola question -- need help

    Look at mine ^^^^ Tell me which part of my working out you don't understand :) You have to factorise that numerator.

    ANOTHER Parametric Equations of Parabola question -- need help

    Hahahah! Parametrics always brings up a lot of algebra. You should see 4u conics (which is parametrics with hyperbolas etc etc), the algebra goes on and on :D So, by giving Q (x0,y0) we are working towards generating two equations which will consist of Q ONLY. 1)PS in perpendicular to QS...

    ANOTHER Parametric Equations of Parabola question -- need help

    By letting Q be (x0,y0) we have to set ourself a goal. We have TWO UNKNOWNS. If we somehow generate TWO equations both constituting of these TWO UNKNOWNS, they can be easily found through the process of simultaneous equations. The algebra isn't nice. Factorising involved. But deterministic has...

    Parametric equations of Parabola - Need help with question

    Yes. Foot ---> Human Foot ---> Located at the bottom OF: 1) Draw the tangent at P 2) Draw a line FROM S so that it is PERPENDICULAR TO the tangent at P 3) The Point of intersection is M. I've always disliked the "foot" terminology.

    Cambridge Textbook. Development? Extension?

    Development yes. Do well in development and you're looking at a great understanding of the particular section. Extension..NO. Lol. That's specified for people who really enjoy mathematics, require a challenge. For the 4unit people.

    Parametric equations of Parabola - Need help with question

    Here's another solution. I'm just going to make sure you understand what you're doing. I'm a big fan of understanding maths as it will help you A LOT >_>. Another thing to remember is that you should pick the FASTEST method in solving problems. determinisitc has found a very fast and elegant way...

    Exponetial function

    May I just add that this result is produced due to the fact that the Exponential and Logarithmic function are INVERSE FUNCTIONS.

    [Integration] Which recurrence formulas are in the syllabus?

    As stated in the previous posts, there are many. But even more so, they can be manipulated in ways that can make them quite hard :| Yes, the 2010 Q8 was a doosey. My best advice is to do past papers. Go to questions 6,7,8 and do as many as you can. With trigonometry you always have the typical...

    Practice for Q7-8

    CSSA isnt that bad. are they meant to be easy? cause.. =/ .. ye.... 2009 was pretty easy 2008 was hard =[ i dont rate exams accordin to Q1-6 Q7-8 tell u how hard an exam is imo... for eg..2009 was easy....induction easy, inequalites...back track...reduction formulae easy....and circlue geoo :|...
