LINDOKUHLE'S TRIGONOMETRY, DIFFERENTIATION & CALCULUS GUIDE

1. Trigonometry
Important Ratios:

- sin theta = opposite / hypotenuse

- cos theta = adjacent / hypotenuse

- tan theta = opposite / adjacent

Pythagorean Identities:

- sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta = 1

- 1 + tan^2 theta = sec^2 theta

Laws:

- Sine Rule: a/sin A = b/sin B = c/sin C

- Cosine Rule: c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab*cos C

Example:

Find side c if a = 5, b = 6, and angle C = 60 degrees:

c^2 = 5^2 + 6^2 - 2*5*6*cos(60) = 31 -> c = sqrt(31)

2. Differentiation
Basic Rules:

- d/dx [x^n] = n*x^(n-1)

- d/dx [sin x] = cos x

- d/dx [cos x] = -sin x

- d/dx [ln x] = 1/x

Product Rule:

d/dx [u*v] = u'*v + u*v'


Quotient Rule:

d/dx [u/v] = (u'*v - u*v') / v^2

Chain Rule:

d/dx [f(g(x))] = f'(g(x))*g'(x)

Example:

Differentiate y = (x^2 + 1)(x - 3):

dy/dx = (2x)(x - 3) + (x^2 + 1)(1) = 3x^2 - 6x + 1

3. Calculus (Integration)
Basic Integrals:

- Integral x^n dx = x^(n+1)/(n+1) + C

- Integral e^x dx = e^x + C

- Integral 1/x dx = ln|x| + C

Definite Integral:

Integral from a to b of f(x) dx = F(b) - F(a)

Area under curve:

If y = f(x), then area = Integral from a to b of f(x) dx

Example:

Find Integral from 0 to 2 of (2x + 1) dx:

= [x^2 + x] from 0 to 2 = (4 + 2) - 0 = 6
