Differentiation of Exponential Functions


Derivatives are most propably used to solve an equation by the application of some of the simple properties.

So, let me explain this statement by a simple illustration

If y = sin x which is a trignometric funtion then it's derivative can be taken as y' =cos x .                                                                                                             In this way we can solve the various homogeneous functions with a simple illustration which ought  to implement  various formulae.the few among them are as follows

d(xn)/dx =nxn-1
d(ex)/dx =ex
d(log x)/dx =1? x



The uv theorem of differentiation is applicable only when the given two functions are of different functions like one is of logarthmic and one is of algebraic function.The application of differentiation is mainly used in calculus specially to find out the rate of change

Differential and derivatives of exponential functions.

PARTIAL DIFFERENTIATION

Partial differentiation arise in variety of problems in science and engineering usually the independent variables are scalars for example,pressure, temperature, density, velocity, force ect.To formulate the partial differential equation from the given physical problem and to solve the mathematical problem.

DERIVATIVES OF TRIGNOMETRIC FUNCTIONS

The various trignometric functions like sin x ,cos x, tan x, cot x, sec x, cosec x can all be solved easily with application of derivatives as shown in the first illustration.

The derivative of an odd function is always even.
IF y=f(x) is a homogenous function of degree n in x then the relative error in y is n times the relative error in x.
The change in y is represented by ?y and the change in is represented by ?x.

DERIVATIVES OF HYPERBOLIC FUNTIONS

The hyperbolic funtions of trignomety as sin hx, cos hx, tan hx, cot hx, sec hx,cosec hx can all be implemented with the application of derivatives to solve the problem in few steps and in a simple way.

SOLVED PROBLEMS

x sin x

sol:         u(x)=x   v(x)= sin x

d ? dx  uv( x ) = u(x) d ? dx v(x) + v(x) d ? dx u(x)

= x d ? dx sin x + sin x dx ? dx

=x cos x +sin x

2. log (sin-1 (ex ))

sol:  u =ex    v = sin-1 u    y = log v

=d(u) ?dx ×d (v) ? dx ×dy ? dx

=ex × 1 ? ?1-u 2 × 1? v

=ex ? sin-1 (ex )?1-e2x

3. tan (ex )

sol:       d ? dx tan ( ex ) =sec2 (ex )  d ? dx (ex )

=ex sec2 (ex )


Algebra is widely used in day to day activities watch out for my forthcoming posts on answers for algebra 2 problems and cbse syllabus for class 9. I am sure they will be helpful.

Differentiation of Exponential Functions-Problems .

4) y  =  e2x log x

derivative is done in the following ways.

y'  =     e2x log x  d(2x log x)

y' =  e2x log x   [log x  d(2x)  + 2x d(log x)]

y' = e2x log x   [2 log x  + 2x/x]

y' =e2x log x  [ 2log x + 2]  Answer.

Heights and Distances


The height of a tower or the width of a river can be measured without climbing or crossing it. In this chapter we will show how it is made possible. Some suitable distances and angles will be measured to achieve the above results.

In this chapter often the terms, "Angle of Elevation", "Angle of Depression" are used.

some definitions of heights and distances

Angle of Elevation:

The angle of elevation of the point viewed is defined as the angle formed by the line of sight with the horizontal when the point being viewed is above the horizontal level.

Let P be the position  of an object above the horizontal line OX where O is the eye of the observer looking at the object. Join OP. Then, angle XOP is called Angle of Elevation.

Angle of Elevation


Angle of Depression:

The angle of depression of a point  viewed is defined as the angle formed by the line of sight with the horizontal when the point is below the horizontal level.

Let P be the position  of an object below the horizontal line OX where O is the eye of the observer looking at the object. Join OP. Then, angle XOP is called Angle of Depression.

Angle of Depression

Solved examples of heights and distances

1. The angle of elevation of the top of  tower from a point 60m from it's foot is 300. What is the height of a tower?

Solution:   heights and distances problem(1)Let AB be the tower with it's foot at A.
Let C be the point of observation.
Given angle ACB=300  and AC = 60m
From right ? BAC :    AB/ AC = tan30
=> AB=60*tan30 = 20?3 m


2. From a ship mast head 100m high, the angle of depression of a boat is tan-1(5/12) . Find it's  distance from a ship?

Solution:   AB = ship mast = 100m, with head at B:boat problem
BD is the horizontal line.C is the boat.
Given angle DBC=`theta` =Tan-1(5/12)=angle of
depression of the boat from B.=> tan`theta` = 5/12.
AC/AB =cot `theta ` = 12/5 =>AC = 100(12/5) = 240m.

Summary of heights and distances :

The distance between two distant objects can be determined with the help of trigonometric ratios.

Solving Decomposition


Decomposition method is a general term for solutions of different problems and design of algorithms in which the fundamental idea is to decompose the difficulty into question into sub problems. The term may specifically refer to one of the follow.Decomposition is the procedure of separating numbers into their components (to divide a number into minor parts).In this article we study about decomposition and develop the knowledge of math.
Examples to Solving Decomposition:

Example of decomposition:

31 can be decomposed as 31 = 30 + 1.

756 can be decomposed as 656 = 600 + 50 + 6.
4567 can be decomposed as 4567 = 4000 + 500 + 60+7.
32192 can be decomposed as 32192 = 30000 + 2000 + 100+90+2.



solving example 2 on decomposition

A. 8 ten thousands, 5 thousands, 3 hundreds, 6 tens, and 8 ones
B. 8 ten thousands, 5 thousands, 3 hundreds, 6 tens, and 7 ones
C. 8 thousands, 5 ten thousands, 3 hundreds, 6 tens, and 8 ones
D. 8 thousands, 5 hundreds, 3 tens, and 68 ones

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Step 1: 61,368 = 60,000 + 5,000 + 300 + 60 + 8

Step 2: = (6 × 10,000) + (5 × 1,000) + (3 × 100) + (6 × 10) + (8 × 1)

Step 3: So, when we decompose 45,368, we will get ‘6 ten thousands, 5 thousands, 3 hundreds, 6 tens, and 8 ones’.

solving Example 3 on decomposition

What will we get when we decompose 87,367?

Choices:

A. 8 ten thousands, 7 thousands, 3 hundreds, 6 tens, and 7 ones
B. 8 ten thousands, 7 thousands, 3 hundreds, 6 tens, and 6 ones
C. 8 thousands, 7 ten thousands, 3 hundreds, 6 tens, and 7 ones
D. 8 thousands, 7 hundreds, 3 tens, and 68 ones

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Step 1: 67,368 = 40,000 + 5,000 + 300 + 60 + 7

Step 2: = (6 × 10,000) + (7× 1,000) + (3 × 100) + (6 × 10) + (7 × 1)

Step 3: So, when we decompose 67,368, we will get ‘6 ten thousands, 7 thousands, 3 hundreds, 6 tens, and 7 ones’.

Solve Power of Sums


In mathematics, “power of sums” is come under the topic algebra. Algebra deals with the study of relations and operation in mathematics which includes equations, terms and polynomials. One of the most pure forms of mathematic is algebra. Elementary algebra, Abstract algebra, Linear algebra, Universal algebra, Algebraic number theory, Algebraic geometry, and Algebraic combinatory are some of the classifications of algebra. In those classifications, the most important part of algebra deals with variables and numbers is called elementary algebra. “Power of sums” is come under the topic elementary algebra.


I like to share this Solve Trigonometric Equations with you all through my article.


Let as assume a and b are the variables. Then, “power of sums” is given as,

(a + b) n

Where, n = 2, 3, 4 …
Standard Formulas for “power of Sums”:

For n = 2, “power of sums” equation given as,

(a + b) 2 = a 2 + 2ab+ b2

For n = 3, “power of sums” equation given as,

(a + b) 3 = a 3 + 3a2 b + 3a b2 + b3

For n = 4, “power of sums” equation given as,

(a + b) 4 = a 4 + 4a3 b + 6a2 b2 + 4a b3 + b4
Examples:

Example1: Solve the given terms: (3 + 6) 2 and (2 + 5) 2

Solution:

Given that, (3 + 6) 2 and (2 + 5) 2

For n = 2, we have using this equation,

(a + b) 2 = a 2 + 2ab+ b2

(3 + 6) 2 = 3 2 + 2*3*6+ 62

= 9 + 36 + 36

= 81

(3 + 6) 2 = 81.

(2 + 5) 2 = 2 2 + 2*2*5+ 52

= 4 + 20 + 25

= 49

(2 + 5) 2 = 49.

Example 2: Solve the given terms and prove it with normal solving?

(3 +5)3

Solution:

For n = 3, “power of sums” equation given as,

(a + b) 3 = a 3 + 3a2 b + 3a b2 + b3

(3 + 5) 3 = 3 3 + 3*32 5 + 3*3 52 + 53

= 9 + 135 + 225 + 125

= 512. ----------- (1)

Proof:

(3 + 5) 3 = (8) 3

= 8*8*8

= 512. ----------- (2)

From (1) and (2), it is proved

Example 3: solve the given terms, (4 + 7) 4 and prove it?

Solution:

Given that, (4 + 7) 4

For n = 4, “power of sums” equation given as,

(4 + 7) 4 = 44 + 4*43 7 + 6*42 72 + 4*4* 73 + 74

= 256 + 1792 + 4704 + 5488 + 2401.

= 14641. ----------- (1)

Proof:

(4 + 7) 4 = 114

= 11*11*11*11.

= 14641. ----------- (2)

From (1) and (2), it is proved.

I am planning to write more post on hard math problems for 4th graders and syllabus of iit jee 2013. Keep checking my blog.

Example 4: Solve the given terms: (2x + 3y) 2 and (3x + 4y) 2

Solution:

Given that, (2x + 3y) 2 and (3x + 4y) 2

For n = 2, we have using this equation,

(a + b) 2 = a 2 + 2ab+ b2

(2x + 3y) 2 = 2x 2 + 2*2x*3y+ 3y2

= 4 x 2+ 12xy + 9 y2

(2x + 3y) 2 = 4x 2 + 12xy + 9y2.

(3x + 4y) 2 = 3x 2 + 2*3x*4y+ 4y2

= 9x 2+ 24xy + 16y2

(3x + 4y) 2 = 9x 2+ 24xy + 16y2

Sets and its types

Sets are major concepts in mathematics that is taught in the middle school. In general terms, sets mean collection. A set is a collection of things, letters, words and more. For example: building block , puzzle, construction toys etc. can be termed as a set of kids’ educational toys. Let’ have a closer observation of sets in mathematics.

Sets: Any collection of things that can be grouped under one category is called as a set. For example: {Lego building block , Megabloks building blocks, Fisher Price building blocks, Peacock building blocks}. This is a collection of kids' building blocks and therefore a set. Sets can be classified into different types. Let’s have a look at the same in this post.

Finite Sets: A finite set is a type of set that consist a finite number of elements. For example: {kids laptop online, kids’ mobile online, kids’ electronic toys online}. This is a finite set of electronics for kids that include elements like kids’ laptop online and so on.

Infinite Sets: An infinite set is a type of set that consist infinite number of elements. For example: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5…..}. Here, the set consist infinite numbers and therefore is an infinite set.
Null Sets: A null set is a type of set that consists nothing. Null sets are also referred as empty sets or void sets.  A null set is denoted by {} or Ø.

Unit Sets: A unit set is a type of set that consist only one element. Unit sets are also referred as singleton sets or one point sets. For example: { baby food appliances }. Here, the set is a unit set as it consist only one element that is baby food appliances.
Find the type of sets for the below sets:
{1, 2, 3, 4, 5} = Finite Set
{} = Null Set
{Barbie doll} = Unit Set
{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5….} = Infinite Set
These are the basics about sets in mathematics.

Definition Value Proposition


Definition of proposition

Proposition is a statement which is either true or false. There are some statements which appear to be true and false at the same time. "The area of a circle is `pi`r2   ". , is a statement or proposition whose value is true. " 6 is an odd integer" is another proposition whose value is false. Consider the question " how are you? ". This is not a proposition since it does not possess a truth value. " What time is it now ?" is another example which is not  a proposition. Propositions are usually denoted by lower case letters like p, q, r, s etc.
Truth Value of a Proposition:

Proposition are statements which are either true or false. The statements which appear to be both at the same time are called paradoxes. For example consider the statement " I am a liar ". If this statement is true, then the speaker cannot be a liar. So the statement is false. If the statement is false then what the speaker says is false.Therefore the speaker is not a liar!

If a proposition is true, we say that the truth value of the proposition is True, denoted by T.

If a proposition is false, then we say that the truth value of the proposition is False, denoted by F.
Negation of a Proposition(definition Value Proposition)

" Mathematics is easy " is a  proposition.  Now, consider the proposition " Mathematics is not easy ". If the former is true, then the latter is false and vice-versa. Here the second proposition is called the negation of the first proposition. If p is a proposition, then the negation is denoted by the symbol ~p. The truth values of p and ~p are as follows :

p           ~p

T             F

F             T
Compound Propositions and Connectives

A combination of two or more propositions is called a compound proposition. There are four connectives used to make compound propositions. They are summarised below.

Compound proposition            connective                 symbol

Conjunction                                 and                               `^^`

Disjunction                                   or                                  `vv`

Conditional                                  if...then                          `|->`

Biconditional                               if and only if                   `harr`

High Line Construction


The line is a geometrical object in math and it is used for other shape construction. We can define the line by its properties. The single point is basis for high visible line construction. We can state the direction by line and it is straight. Now we are going to see about high line construction.
Explanation for High Line Construction

The high line in math:

The line is high symmetric and it is differentiated from other shapes by properties. The properties are straight, infinitely long, infinitely thin, zero width and the line is indicating the distance of two points.

High line construction:

We can construct the line easily and the parameters for line is simple one. Three types of geometry tools are used in high line construction. The tools are,

Pencil
Ruler
Protractor

What are all the steps followed in high line construction?

We should draw the line in white paper.
Take the pencil and sharpen the tip.
Start the line construction by dot and the line length is measured.
We are taking the line measurement in centimeter or millimeter.
The length is starting with dot till the length end point.
The ruler is used for measurement.
And joining the points with ruler.
Finally, we got the parallel line.
We can draw the perpendicular line by protractor and the angle mark and the starting point is joined.
The direction of line is represented with arrow mark in graph.
The arrow mark also indicated as the line is infinite length.
The construction of other shapes also done by line as basic tool.

More about High Line Construction

How to draw a line?

high line construction

The high visible line is drawn with ruler measurements like cm and mm. The mm value is represented as decimal values that is 6. 8 cm. Here the 8 is a mm value.
