Integration by substitution 0

Integration by substitution

One form of integration is the integration by inspection method which I have covered here. It might be best for your benefit to go through that revision before attempting this reading, it might make...

Area between a curve and the y-axis 0

Area between a curve and the y-axis

Before attempting this maths learning it might be a good idea to go through the lesson of finding the area below the curve along the x-axis, because I won’t cover the basics and the...

Representation of Data 0

Representation of Data

This is a quick lesson about representation of data. I thought I publish it since I haven’t posted for a while. These are really just basic facts about representation of data. There are two...

Equation of a normal to a curve 0

Equation of a normal to a curve

You must have a general understanding of graph gradients, tangents, normals and derivatives. This would probably be a reminder rather than a lesson. You must know that a normal is perpendicular to the tangent....

Equation of a tangent to a curve 0

Equation of a tangent to a curve

You must have a general understanding of graph gradients, tangents, normals and derivatives. This would probably be a reminder rather than a lesson. Finding the equation of a tangent to a curve involves finding...

Surface Area of a Cylinder 0

Surface Area of a Cylinder

The surface area of a Cylinder can be given by: This is because for the top and bottom parts the area is πr2 and the side cover/part is 2πrh

Integration of exp(x) and 1/x 0

Integration of exp(x) and 1/x

In differentiation we know that ex differentiates to ex as follows. Since integration is the opposite of differentiation it must mean that: Suppose we wanted to find out the integration e4x, Think about it...
