@jtug6

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

show your work please

OpenStudy (jtug6):

^ that and 25/27 right? =)

OpenStudy (marcelie):

i did those already lol im just stuck on that one D:

OpenStudy (jtug6):

wait which one specifically?

OpenStudy (marcelie):

35

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

this might be helpful : \[\cot^2x = \dfrac{\cos^2x}{\sin^2x} = \dfrac{1-\sin^2x}{\sin^2x} = \csc^2x-1\]

OpenStudy (jtug6):

alright 1 sec

OpenStudy (marcelie):

oh its one of those identities

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

You don't need to memorize a lot of identities. Just remember one identity : \[\sin^2x + \cos^2x=1\] All other identites follow from this

OpenStudy (jtug6):

yeah what ganshie said lol... sorry i didnt read that you alrdy labeled which problem @ the top ;3

OpenStudy (jtug6):

Do you know what to do now that you have csc^2(x) - 1?

OpenStudy (jh99):

\[\int\limits_{\pi/6}^{\pi/2} -x-\cot(x)\] Can you solve this?

OpenStudy (jh99):

\[\cot^2(x)=-x-\cot(x)\]

OpenStudy (marcelie):

hmmm wait i think i got it

OpenStudy (jtug6):

what'd you get? :D

OpenStudy (marcelie):

rad 3 - pi/3

OpenStudy (jtug6):

hmm. That isn't what I got. Show your work like ganshie said first ;p

OpenStudy (jtug6):

oh, wait. im sorry xD i used pi/4 not pi/2 im not wearing my contacts, sorry! 1 sec lemme re evaluate haha

OpenStudy (marcelie):

lool tyt

OpenStudy (jtug6):

yep! that's what I got too. but still i'd like to see your work. what did you end up doing?

OpenStudy (marcelie):

okie one sec

OpenStudy (marcelie):

OpenStudy (jtug6):

mhmmmmm! great! that works. although you evaluated it correctly you wrote pi/2 to pi/2 i think

OpenStudy (marcelie):

pi /6 to pi /2 sorry my writing isnt that neat lol Dx

OpenStudy (jtug6):

some professors are stingy and may or may not mark that off. ;p

OpenStudy (jtug6):

ah its fine just be careful on an actual exam

OpenStudy (marcelie):

yesh D: my exam is this thursday

OpenStudy (jtug6):

good luck! i got a calc 3 exam on partial derivatives/1st-2nd deriv tests ect on monday xD

OpenStudy (marcelie):

oml summer class :o

OpenStudy (jtug6):

yerp ;(

OpenStudy (marcelie):

aah its a pain x.x im taking calc2 in summer its too much

zepdrix (zepdrix):

do they go through it faster in summer? :o sounds tricky

OpenStudy (marcelie):

yesh very fast D: its insane
