I dont think so u need to know how to prove them, only how to apply them..and about the angles, if ur talking about the ratio/triangle thingi, i guess same is for that, just how to use it.

And Thx both of you, i understood :D

Alright, thanks! :)

Review Exercise 1, Q21:

f(x)=x3+ax+b, where a and b are constants.

When f(x) is divided by (x?4) the remainder is 32.

When f(x) is divided by (x+2) the remainder is ?10.

(a) Find the value of a and the value of b.

(b) Show that (x?2) is a factor of f(x).

In the CD, it shows for part (a)
f(-2) = (-2)3 + (-2)a + b = 32 as well, isn't that wrong?

That's because I just copy pasted the question, I'm sorry, the ? stands for - [minus sign]

My question is, you need to form 2 equations, right? Speaking about part a)

The first one is 4a+b=-32
The second one, according to me should be b-2a=-2, but the CD says it's b-2a=40, because they took f(-2) to be equal to 32 instead of -10, isn't that wrong?

Since it's mentioned in the Question that it's -10 then it surely is wrong.

Alright, thanks! :)

Another question, Exercise 5A, Q8, Find the term independent of x in the expansion of (x2 - 2/2x)3.

What's that?  :o

I got it, you first expand the term and then you see where you can cancel the x terms and then you just get the value.

Yup :)

Can you please tell me how do you do this tabular method for differentiation? Or just get me a link that explains it, because it's not explained in the textbook and when I google, I'm getting Integration by parts, which is actually in C4!
