graphing software

A graphing software is available at padowan.dk

Another software is winplot available at math.exeter.edu/rparris/

An interactive geometry graphing system where input can be in the form of equations or co ordinates which can be manipulated even after the graph has been drawn is available at geogebra.org

proving a trigonometry identity

show that [( tanx -sinx ) / (2tanx) ] = sin² (x/2)
divide term by term and change
every thing in terms of sinx and cosx and
then use half angle formulae

equation of tangent at (e,e) on y = x lnx

y = x lnx

dy/dx = x(1/x) + lnx (1) = 1 + lnx

slope of tangent , m = (dy/dx) at (e,e) = 1 + ln(e) = 1 + 1 = 2

equation of tangent at (e,e) is
(y - y1) = m (x-x1)

y - e = 2(x-e)

or y = 2x - e
other examples
equation of tangent to y =x^4 at the point where x=2

sum of n terms of a geometric progression

find the nth term of the series 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + ...
Also find the sum of the first n terms

The sequence 1, 2 , 4 , 8 , 16 , ... is a geometric progression (G.P.) with
first term a=1 and common ratio, r = 2
since 2/1 = 4/2 = 8/4 =16/8 = ...

nth term = a {r ^ ( n-1) } = 2^(n-1)

try the following page for formulae on sequences and series AP and GP

idempotent law in a boolean algebra

show that a + a = a in a boolean algebra

a = a + 0
= a + (a. a' )
= (a + a ). (a + a ' )
= (a + a ). 1
= (a + a )

therefore a + a = a
note that the dual is a . a = a

boundedness law in a boolean algebra

Show that a +1 = 1 in a boolean algebra

1 = a + a'
= a + (a' .1 )
= (a + a' ) . ( a+1) distributive law
= 1 . ( a+1)
=a +1

therefore a + 1 = 1

note that the dual is a . 0 = 0

to construct truth tables for [~ (p ^ q ) ]v (~r)

since there are three variables there will be 2^3 =8 rows
start the first column with 4 T's and 4F's
second column with 2 T's and 2F's ...
third column T and F alternatively
then use the definition of ^ , ~ to get the truth table of the components and finally that of the question

solving a fourth degree equation given one of its complex roots

solve 2x^4-8x^3+19x^2-22x+5=0 given that 1+2i is one of its roots

complex roots occur in conjugate pairs if the coefficients are real
so 1-2i is also a root
{x - (1+2i)}{x - (1-2i)} is a factor
multiply into a quadratic
divide the given equation by this quadratic factor to extract the other quadratic factor and solve that
