Mathmatics Flashcards
Which of the following equations correctly describes the shaded area of the x-y plane?
Find Slope of the line using:
m = (Y2 - Y1) / (X2 - X1 )
Put into slope form
y = mx + b
Isolate “b”
What is most nearly the slop of the line tangent to the parabola y = 12x2 + 3 at a point where x = 5?
Take the derivative of y = 12x2 + 3 with respect to x.
Substitute 5 for x.
Solve.
Which field has a positive vector curl?
Which one of the 4 figures shown has rotation?
If there are more than one field that has rotation use the Right Hand Rule and pick the one that has a positive Z.
x = -2 is one of the roots of the equation x3 + x2 -22x - 40 = 0. What are the other two roots?
Use “poly-solve” on calculator.
What is the unit vector of R = 12i - 20j - 9k?
To find a unit vector, take the magnitude.
Divide vector R by the magnitude.
Which of these vector identities is INCORRECT?
(A) A · A = 0
(B) A x A = 0
(C) A · B = B · A
(D) A x B = -B x A
If the dot product of two vectors is zero, either one or both of the vectors is zero or two vectors are perpendictular. The equation A · A = 0 is, therefore, true only when A = 0, and it is not an identity. the other three option are identities.
For the three vectors A, B, and C,
A = 6i + 8j + 10k
B = i + 2j + 3k
C = 3i +4j + 5k
What is most nearly the product A • (B x C)?
Place into calculator by pressing “2nd” & “EE”.
Solve.
Evaluate the following indefinite integral.
Use “u” substitution
u = cos2x.
du = (- sin x) dx.
What is the decimal equivalent of the 8 - bit binary number 1011 1101?
The decimal equivalent is found by using the following formula,
D = ak2k - ak-12k-1 + … a0 + a-12-1….
= (1)(27) + (0)(26) + (1)(25) + (1)(24) + (1)(23) + (1)(23) + (1)(22) + (0)(21)+(1)(20)
= 189
The excluse OR is an associative operator, as are all Boolean operators, so
Put information in standard equation of the line y = mx + b (y=4/3x+b).
Insert (6,4) into equation to find y intercept (b).
To find the length take magnitude between two points.
To find the general form take the points given (4,-6)
Seperate them (4,0) & (0,-6)
Insert into point slope form y1 - y2 = m (x1-x2), solve for slope
Make equation of line y = mx + b
Isolate all figures to the left side (General Form) Ax + By + C = 0
Use Logarithmic property logx(A) - logx(B) = logx(A/B)
Then use Logarithmic property logx(A) + logx(B) = logx(AB)
if csc(phi) = -8/5 then, sin(phi) = -5/8
Use identity cos(2phi) = 1 - 2 sin2(phi)
1 - 2[(-5/8)2] solve.
Use trig identity to convert everything to cos and sin.
simplify
use identiy cos2(x) = 1 - sin2(x)
Use U substitution to convert to a quadratic equation
solve

Find the EQ of a Circle (x-h)2 + (y-k)2 = r2
Complete the square (half the number then square it)
(x2 - 8x ) + (y2 - 10y ) + 25 = 0
(x2 - 8x + 16) + (y2 - 10y ) + 25 = 0 + 16
(x2 - 8x + 16) + (y2 - 10y + 25 ) + 25 = 0 + 16 + 25
(x2 - 8x + 16) + (y2 - 10y + 25 ) = 0 + 16 + 25 - 25
(x - 4)2 + (y - 5)2 = 16

2xy3 + y4 + cos(x)+[-2sin(x)cos(x)] + 0
y3(2x + 1) + cos(x) - 2cos(x)sin(x)
y3(2x + 1) + cos(x)(1-2sin(x)
You dont even have to do the problem.
The integral of 1/x is ln|x| so the answer has to be A.
Use “U” substitution
u = cos(x)
du = -sin(x) dx
evaluate
Split into two integrals
integral of sin(x) from π/2 to π
and integral of sin(x) from π to 2π
add them together
