When they say define similarly as something shown, try to write the answer as similarly shown.
To solve something like x+2-3x=0 make an unknown e.g. k=x and k2=x
When you draw sin or cos graph make sure it is curvy not V or U shaped.
Basic Shape:
Y=(x)
Y=x2
Integrating:
Y=(x+b)2+c
+= minimum point
-= maximum point
If they ask for in the form (Ax + B)2 + C, expand it and compare coefficients.
Functions:
Let y= g(x)= 8x x2
Then solve like it quadratically. THEN, you will get something like thisx = 8(64 4y)2
Now, in the question it mentions that x>4so we cannot take x=8-. Option so we end up with
g-1x) = 4 + (16 x)
regarding inverse, if you have a line y=x and a f(x) you can get the reflected line. This reflected line
would be the inverse if f(x) has an inverse only if f(x) is a one-one function
a) tan2x= sin2x/cos2x
b) Cos2x=3/4
Cos x=(3/4)
Y=a sin x +b
B= how much higher from the y values of original (dont use this on peak since a cannot affect it
too)
e.g.f(x= 3x2+2x2 is positive for all values for xf(x) >0 so it is an increasing function
if you forgetthis means rate of change of dy/dx. So if its negative that means, the gradient is from
+ve to 0 to ve. That means it is rising then zero then droppingmaximum value.
OR
To avoid getting tricked by point of inflexion where the gradient goes from positive to zero to
positive(not a stationary point), sub values of x before and after the stationary point, see if the
gradient change signs. If gradient changes from negative to zero then to positive, you have a
minimum point)
Vector:
BA is parallel to CD, so they are in the same direction but different magnitudes (parallel). Find out
the unit vector of BA and multiply with the length of CD that will give you the answer to vector CD.
For the angle of AOB, it means the angle at O. angle in between the vectors OA and OB.
A O
Properties of quadrilaterals:..
Tangent to a curve meaning the line only touches the curve at one point. Combine both equations of
curve and line to 0. Since b2-4ac=0.
My thoughtsif y=. You are finding roots relative to the x-axis. If it touches the x-axis or not. If it
does, does it touch the x-axis twice or not. But if you have two separate equations and you find the
discriminant, you want to know if the two equations(graphs) are touching each other or not. But if
they say tangent, then you know for sure b2-4ac=0 (still combine both equations)

For part (ii), you must reflect with y=x.
