Imagine a sector of a circle called AOB. With center O and radius rcm. The angle AOB is R in radians. The area of the sector is 11cm². Given the perimeter of the sector is 4 time the length of the arc AB. Find r.

11 = 1/2 r²RAB = x = rRr + r + x = 4x2r = 3rRR = 2/3r²R = 22r² = 33r = √33

How to perform integration by substitution. (e.g. Find the integral of (2x)/((4+(3(x^2)))^2)) (10 marks)

We begin by looking at the integral by itself. The first thing we must do is evaluate what type of integration we should perform. It's always important to make sure that it's not a standard integral such ...

A function is defined as f(x) = x / sqrt(2x-2). Use the quotient rule to show that f'(x) = (x-2)/(2x-2)^(3/2)

u = x v = (2x-2)^(0.5)u' = 1 v' = (2x-2)^(-0.5)f'(x) = (vu' - uv') / v^2Therefore, f'(x) = (((2x-2)^(0.5) * 1) - (x * (2x-2)^(-0.5))) / ((2x-2)^(0.5))^2f'(x) = (2x - 2 - x) / (2x-2)^(3/2) = (x-2) / (2x-2)...
