    insane maths problem - help

    This is using the derivative above \frac{d\frac{x}{ln(tanx)}}{dx} = \frac{1}{ln(tanx)} - \frac{1}{cosx sinx ln^2(tanx)} \\ \int \frac{d\frac{x}{ln(tanx)}}{dx} = \int \frac{1}{ln(tanx)} - \int \frac{1}{cosx sinx ln^2(tanx)} \\ \int \frac{1}{ln(tanx)} = \frac{x}{ln(tanx)} + \int \frac{1}{cosx...

    insane maths problem - help

    When I differentiated that, I got \frac{1}{ln(tanx)} - \frac{1}{cosx sinx ln^2(tanx)} Wolfram alpha gives me the same derivative...although Online Derivative Calculator gives me 1/ln(tanx) as required.

    Need Advice: To drop or not to drop?

    Maths is inevitable if you're going to do Adv. Science - it's really a matter of stress now or stress later. Personally I think you should dedicate a set amount of time to maths (not too much perhaps) and focus on your other subjects. However you should aim to understand the concepts as...

    Inverse trig question - Cambridge

    Thanks guys, much appreciated :) If I were to prove " that if an odd function has an inverse function, then that inverse function is also odd" geometrically, how should I word it? I'm thinking something about rotational symmetry about the origin and flipping across y=x, but I don't know how...

    integration

    \int \sec^3 x\tan x dx \\= \int \sec^2 x(\sec x\tan x) dx \\= \int \sec^2 x d(\sec x) \\= \frac{\sec^3 x}{3} + C

    poor english teacher

    If picking 3U English doesn't affect which teacher you will have, go for it. You can always drop later. If you truly like English, then the teacher you get should not matter that much.

    chemistry and physics help??

    I guess you should base it on the wording of the syllabus dot points, i.e. does it ask you to identify, explain, analyse, etc? As for the detail in your notes, it depends on your study preferences - are you able to go into the detail required for exams by looking at your notes? You can exclude...
