View attachment 22407

b. (i)
Because it looks less tedious, I am going to find the no. of arrangements where the number is odd and then subtract it from all possible arrangements.

For odd numbers, the last digit has to be odd. This gives us two possibilities.

_ _ _ _ _ _ 1 or _ _ _ _ _ _ 7

No. of odd arrangements = (6!/2!) + (6!/2!) = 720

No. of even arrangements = No. of all possible arrangements - No. of odd arrangements
= 7!/2! - 720
= 1800

Prove that if (c-b).a=0 and (c-a).b=0, then (b-a).c=0. Show this can be used to prove the following geometric results:
1) The lines through the vertices of a triangle ABC perpendicular to the opposite sides meet in a point (the orthocentre)
2) The tetrhedron OABC has two pairs of perpendicular opposite edges, the third pair of edges is perpendicular.
Prove also that, in both cases, OA^2 + BC^2 = OB^2 + CA^2 = OC^2 + AB^2.

Co prime numbers are numbers which have no factor common ,

like 2 and 3 are coprime 16 and 25 are coprime but 2 and 4 are not co prime...
8 and 5 are coprime and so on..

Re-arrange the eq-
ln y = 2x+1/x
differentiate both sides
1/y dy/dx = [2x- 1(2x+1)]/x^2 {use u/v formula for RHS and ln y = 1/y dy/dx for LHS}
1/y dy/dx = 2x-2x -1/ x^2
1/y dy/dx = -1/x^2
dy/dx = (-1/x^2)/ (1/y)
dy/dx = -y/x^2
Thank You so much !!!!! JazakAllah khiaran !! May Allah grant you and your family with highest grades in this life and hereafter. Ameen !

Alhamdulilah i got it !!

i dont get the second part the angle one. answer is 119.9 or60.1
As OA --> 4i
OC --> 2j
OD --> 3k
and it is a cuboid so:

OG --> 2j+ 3k
OA --> 4i
AG = OG - OA = -4i + 2j + 3k

and OB = 4i + 2j


that said... now use the scalar product to find the angle between them
(ai)(bi) + (aj)(bj) + (ak)(bk) = lal . lbl . Cos (angle between a and b)

where a and b are AG and OB respectively and LaL --> magnitude of vector a

solving this:
put in all the values and u'll get it down to:
-12 = (20)^1/2 . (29)^1/2 . Cos (angle between them)
Cos (angle b/w them) = -0.49827...
angle b/w them = 119.8858...
= 119.9

Asslamu Alikum Wa Rahmatulahi Wa Barakatoho.......!!! littlecloud11

Can anyone please solve question 8 part (ii)

http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/Cambridge International A and AS Level/Mathematics (9709)/9709_s09_qp_3.pdf

dx/dt = x^2 (10−x)/100
Cross multiply
∫100/ (x^2 10−x) dx = ∫ dt
use your answer to part (i) for the LHS
∫1/x + 10/x^2 + 1/(10-x) dx = ∫ dt
lnx - 10/x - ln|10-x| = t + c -------1
when x=1, t=0
ln1 - 10/1 - ln| 10-1| = 0 + c
-10 - ln9 =c
substitute the value of c in eq 1
lnx - 10/x -ln|10-x| = t - 10 - ln9
t = -10/x + 10 +ln9 +lnx - ln|10-x|
t= -10/x + 10 + ln | 9*x/ (10-x)|

Sin^2(θ) = [1 - Cos 2(θ)]/2
so, sin^2 (2θ) = [1 - Cos 2(2θ)]/2
sin^2 (2θ) = [1 - Cos 4θ]/2

Now substitute sin^2 (2θ) as [1 - Cos 4θ]/2 for the integration:
1/4∫ sin^2 2θ =1/4 ∫[1 - Cos 4θ]/2
= 1/4 * 1/2 ∫1 - Cos 4θ
= 1/8 [θ - Sin 4θ/4]
put the limits
=1/8 [(π/2 -0) - (0 -0)]
=π/16
so A = π/16
