Find the Value of the First and Second Derivative of a Function in x, at Specified Values of x

The mathematical solution explains how to find the value of the first and second derivatives of a given function at specific values for x. The function is presented in the form of algebraic fractions which needs to be converted to index notation and the chain rule used to find the differentials.

Finding All the Solutions of Trigonometric Equations

The mathematical solution explains how to solve the equation: sin(x+150) = 1/sqrt2 for x between 0⁰ and 360⁰. To begin with, the principle values for (x+150) are found. The fact that a sine curve is periodic is used to find the solution set for (x+150) based upon these two initial values. Subtracting 150 from each...

Finding areas of circles

This lesson develops the concept of area of a circle. In particular students will:

• Sketch and construct loci involving arcs of circles
• Calculate the area of a circle, given its radius
• Calculate the radius of a circle, given its area

The opening question is about a goat...

One of a series of books that shows the relevance of practical science to our everyday lives. Students learn through real-world examples, including industrial case studies.

Finding factors and multiples

This lesson develops the concept of ‘Greatest Common Factor’ (GCF) and ‘Least Common Multiple’ (LCM). The central theme is to separate out the two concepts.

There is an introductory ‘guess my numbers’ activity. The GCF and LCM of a pair of numbers is given and students must work out what the numbers are,...
