derive of 50e^(t2+1)
the "independent term" in the expansion of ___________?
Is it just the number OR both?
The values btwn 0 and 2pi for which ksinx+1=0 are?
If tan theta=x thhen tan((pi/2)- theta) is equal to ?
On exam 1: can u put: translated 5 units up/down and left 3 units?
that's all for now

I'm not sure what you mean by half of these questions.
i) Assuming you meant 50e^(t^2+1)
Using the chain rule: 100t*e^(t^2+1)
ii) Independence is not a facet of the Methods course.
iii) ksinx+1=0
=> sinx = -1/k (Q3 and Q4)
=> x = Arcsin(-1/k) [By definition, Arcsin(A) is defined for -pi/2 ≤ Arcsin(A) ≤ pi/2]
This means Arcsin(-1/k) will return an answer from the interval [-pi/2, 0] (Q4). We need to add 2pi in order to move this into [0,2pi], then we should also construct the corresponding Q3 angle.
=> x = Arcsin(-1/k) + 2pi and x = 2pi - Arcsin(-1/k)
iv) tan(θ) = x,
=> tan(π/2 - θ) = 1 / tan(θ) = 1 / x
This can be seen if you draw a right-angled triangle, with angles: θ and π/2 - θ, then use the definition: tangent = opp/adj
v) What do you mean? What sort of question? If it tells you to describe the transformations, yes you can. I think the preferred terminology is "translation -5 units parallel to y-axis (down)"
