    parametrics question

    True that, you should change tan^2 to sin^2/cos^2 then simplify to get \frac{sin^2 \theta}{tan^2 \theta} Then sub the equations from my 2nd line.

    parametrics question

    xy = tan^2 \theta - sin^2 \theta x + y = 2tan \theta \ \ \ y-x = 2sin \theta xy = (\frac{x+y}{2})^2 - (\frac{y-x}{2})^2

    Need help understanding the new HSC Maths course

    I'm not sure what you mean by "New" HSC Math courses (you mean progressing to senior or a complete revamp in the content?) Anyhow, all I can say is that you general math is basically learning applied "real life" math like finding areas and doing some basic finance stuff you might encounter in...

    Ability

    My parents and relatives would talk about how my mum and dad did really well in math back at school in China. I'm not sure if it's legit or not haha but I was able to gasp at most concepts a bit better than the average student so I guess it's a factor.

    Inequality Proof (fitzpatrick review 8, q5d)

    That's not even true since you're squaring a number less than 1 0<ln(2)<ln(e) = 1 \\ \\ ln(2) > (ln(2))^2 2ln(2) > (ln(2))^2 \Rightarrow 2 > ln(2) At the moment I still can't figure the lower bound either.

    Exponential and Log Function Question Help

    I think you mean \frac{1}{2}(e^2-1) Also I'm not sure how you got that integral cause the integral is suppose to be simply \int_0^2 e^x \ \ dx

    Can someone explain how to do this question [Limits Question]

    In order to find the horizontal asymptote, you need to take the limit as the x-value approaches infinity. You also need use this concept. lim_{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{sinx}{x} =lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac{sin(\frac{1}{x})}{\frac{1}{x}} = 1 lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} \frac {x^2...

    Parametrics Help

    Note that is says distinct points so that already implies p \neq q You can easily see that's true if you simply observe the equation mQRmPR=-1. which leads to (p+1)(q+1) = -4 and you'll understand that p and q can't be -1 as you'll get zero. However also observe that both p+1 and q+1 can't...

    Need help with a question.

    Yeah that's because this not your straight forward "top minus bottom" kind of question. First you should draw out the curves, then find the point of intersection (which is x = 1 by inspection) The area given above is \int_0^1 \ x^3 \ \ dx + \int_1^{\frac{4}{3}} \ \ -3x + 4 \ \ dx = \frac{5}{12}

    Perms and combs help please!

    a) For the first 3 spots you have to select 3 boys from 5 and understand that the order amongst those 3 matters so it's 5P3, then for the remaining 6 people it's just 6! (5P3)*6! b) First you select 2 girls from 4, so that's 4C2, you form that with John to make one group, also multiply that...

    Binomial Help PLS

    You don't use mathematical induction in HSC unless otherwise stated. in iii), you differentiate part i) again, then multiply both sides by x, sub x = -1, then add this with part ii) then divide by 2.

    absolute values for integrals equal to log?

    Lol this guy He's talking about actually being able to evaluate logs of negative numbers, but only in the complex field log(z) = ln|z| + iArg(z) But in HSC 2U and 3U you would only integrate with real numbers, iArg(z) would always cancel out, thus you're left with just the absolute value...
