Take the polynomial p(x)=x^4+x^3+2x^2+4x-8, use the factor theorem to write p(x) as two linear factors and an irreducible quadratic. An irreducible quadratic is a quadratic that can not be factorised.


Show that the derivative of tan(x) is sec^2(x), where sec(x) is defined as 1/cos(x). [Hint: think of tan(x) as a quotient of two related functions and apply the appropriate identity]
