General form of a Geometric series: a + ar + ar^2 + ar^3 + ar^4 + … First three terms: 10 + 100.2 + 100.2^2 = 10 + 0.2 + 0.04Nth Term of a Geometric Series: ar^n-1 where there are n terms Proof o...

There are three simple steps to prove anything by induction.

Step 1: When n=1

1²=1

then: 1/6 x 1x (1+1) x (2+1)

=1x2x3/6 =1

Therefore it is true for n=1 

We first notice that the degree of the numerator is the same as the degree of the denominator so we have an improper fraction which we need to separate into an integer and a proper fraction before we can ...

Split it up into steps:

Step 1: Use compound angle trigonometric formula to re-write Rsin(θ + α)

Since generally sin(θ ± φ) = sinθcosφ ± cosθsinφ

Rsin(θ + α) = R(sinθcosα + cos...

The diagram shows the lamina shape.

To begin, divide the lamina into smaller sections and calculate the area. In this example, the lamina is best divided into sections A, B and C. Calculate the are...
