    Conics Questions

    @ is both the parameter and the angle, for example say x^2+y^2=1 is represented by the parametric co ordiantes x=cos@, y= sin@ or P(cos@, sin@) lets say the angle in the circle is pi/4, you substitue that into the equation as the parameter and you will get x = cos(pi/4) = 1/sqrt(2) and y =...

    Conics Questions

    question 2 the algebra gets very messy and i'm incredibly slow at typing, but a way to solve it is find the equation of the tangent to the hyperbola in terms of x,y and @, then solve simultaneously with the circle eliminating y, so u get the equation in terms of x and @ (it will be a quadratic)...

    Tabular integration instead of reccurance

    do any of you know if you can use tabular integration instead of obtaining recurrance formulas? like integral(x^n * e^x) (S = integral) f(x) : x^n, g(x) : e^x f'(x): nx^(n-1) Sg(x) : e^x f''(x)...
