no way m1 is much easier s1 is hard enough


i guess we will have to siscuss all the papers by friday with three consecutive papers no time will be there. half grade decided by 14th may and still going on to 11th june cie logic -_-

I find S1 to be easy.. but then again I haven't studied M1 at all .. the only main thing in S1 which is difficult is Probability/Permutation .. but since my PnC has been good from add maths itself that doesn't seem that difficult to me.

Yaar sahi kar rahay hain .. jab pahlay do paperz mein bunda ghaltian karay ga.. tu he will need atleast 15 days each (phy,chem) to get atleast 30-35 in MCQs :D taakay kuch tu izzat reh jaye :p

Honestly, 7,8,9 are deadly for me. I have to attempt 4 papers in 3 days. from then onwards it is a breeze until 10-11 June.

I will try and complete my chemistry physics by this Monday .. and then concentrate on Maths P1.. I haven't done even a single Maths P1 yet :\

My Chem Practical is on the 23rd..

haha .. GP is compulsory at our school.. honestly as long as i give Chemistry AL first and then GP it will be all good.. else i am screwed.. :\ lol both in morning

in P1.. Functions is where i lose most marks.. I don't know why but I lose marks in this. :(

ok here goes to find the limits of this curve y= sin cube 2x cos cube 2x we will put y=0 as on the x axis y=o
0= cos cube2x sin cube 2x o=sin cube 2x
sin cube 2x = 0 0 = cos cube 2x
x=0 2x=pi/2

x= pi/4

so the limits be pi/4 and 0

by substituting u= sin2x
du/dx = 2cos2x
du= 2cos2x dx

now substituting

(cos cube 2x)( u^3) (1/ 2cos2x) <----------- where this is du
one cos would be cut by the cos in the denominator
u^3 (cos square 2x)/2
remember that cos square x = 1-sin square x
so cos square x = 1-sin square x
so
cos square 2x = 1-sin square 2x
and sin 2x =u
so
cos square 2x= 1- u^2
then the total thing wud be
1/2 integral of u^3(1-u^2)
1/2 integral of u^3 - u^5
1/2 (( u^4)/4 - (u^6)/6)
now open u as sin2x
1/2 (( sin 2x^4)/4 - (sin 2x^6)/6)
1/2 (1/4- 1/6)
1/2 (1/12)
1/24

No need to thank me :p
because i didn't solve it :p
Rutzaba solved it for me :D

its question 9 .... problem is in the first few steps...... how come C = - 3 ? its coming 6 on myside (when doing the partial fractions) and finding A = 2 and B = 1 ?

applepie1996

or any one ? thanks alot :)

okay i think since the powers of the x's of the top half and the bottom half of the equations are the same you divide the two equations like how we do it in the polynomials chapter yeah then after you divide the two quadratic equation you get the quotient as "2" which will be A :) now to find B and C you have to factorize the bottom half of the equation which i am hoping you know how to do :p so the factors are (2x+1) and (x+2) sooooooo.......
now A + B/2x+1 + C/x+2 = 4x^2+5x+3 and you know A is 2 so find B and C . (which i am assuming you can do :) )
