Prove that sin(x)^2 - 5cos(x)^2 = 6sin(x)^2 - 5

5 = 5(cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2) = 5cos(x)^2 + 5sin(x)^2=> 5 - 5cos(x)^2 = 5sin(x)^2=> sin(x)^2 + 5 - 5cos(x)^2 = 6sin(x)^2=> sin(x)^2 - 5cos(x)^2 = 6sin(x)^2 - 5

Find the coordinates of any stationary points of the curve y(x)=x^3-3x^2+3x+2

A stationary point is a point where the gradient of a curve is 0. The derivative of a curve gives us a function for the gradient at every point on the curve. So we have that dy(x)/dx=0 if and only if the ...

The curve C has parametric equations x=cos(t)+1/2*sin(2t) and y =-(1+sin(t)) for 0<=t<=2π. Find a Cartesian equation for C. Find the volume of the solid of revolution of C about the y-axis.

Note the simplest relation to eliminate t is the fact cos2(t)+sin2(t)=1 for all t, so we need only find x and y in terms of cos(t) and sin(t).Note we have sin(t)=-(y+1) from the equa...

Given M = [[-2,6],[1,3]], find P and D such that M = PDP^(-1) where D is a diagonal matrix

We are given M = [[-2,6],[1,3]], with columns [-2,6] and [1,3]. To find P and D, eigenvalues and eigenvectors must be calculated, as D is defined to be the matrix whose diagonal is comprised of the eigenv...
