In the triangle ABC, AB = 16 cm, AC = 13 cm, angle ABC = 50 and angle BCA= x Find the two possible values for x, giving your answers to one decimal place.

Using the sine rule: sina/A = sinb/Bsinx/16 = sin50/13sinx = 16 * (sin50/13)sinx = 0.943x = 70.5 and 109.5

How can I determine the characteristics of a curve on an x-y set of axis (eg. points of intersection, stationary points, area under graph)?


What is the "chain rule"?


Integrate y=(x^2)cos(x) with respect to x.


given that angles A and B are such that, sec^2A-tanA = 13 and sinBsec^2B=27cosBcosec^2B
