integrate cos^2(2x)sin^3(2x) dx

To integrate this we need to use the chain rule, substituting cos2x = u Integral becomes: u2sin32x dxChain rule: dy/dx = du/dx dy/du du/dx = -2sin2x --> dx = -1/2sin2x du Substitu...

(a) Express (1+4*sqrt(7))/(5+2*sqrt(7)) in the form a+b*sqrt(7), where a and b are integers. (b) Then solve the equation x*(9*sqrt(5)-2*sqrt(45))=sqrt(80).

(a)   We can ‘get rid of’ a square root in the denominator simply by multiplying by 1 (value of the fraction stays unchanged) in a suitable form. We will take advantage of this formula: (a+b)(a-b)=a^2...
