Integrate (1 - x^2)^(-0.5)dx within the limits 0 and 1

The answer is π/2. The key trick to solving this problem is to change variables by using the substitution x = sin(θ). We then need to change the differential and the limits too.

Differentiate y = x^3− 5x^2 + 3x

the rule for differentiating in terms of x is to multiply by the power then decrease the power by one. So going through the equation x^3 will be multiplied by 3 and go to x^2 so will be 3x^2. Then its imp...

Supposing y = arcsin(x), find dy/dx

Suppose:
y = arcsin(x)
Then, x = sin(y)
And, dx/dy = cos(y) ----- (1)
Using: dy/dx = 1/(dx/dy);
Thus 1 becomes: dy/dx = 1/cos(y) ------ (2)
Using: sin^2(y) + cos^2(y) = 1;

Find the coordinates of the turning points of the curve y = 4/3 x^3 + 3x^2-4x+1

First differentiating by the rule that xn differentiates to nxn-1 we have that dy/dx = 4x2+6x-4.
At the turning points of a curve the differential is equal to 0 so w...
