when finding area between a line and a curve is it better to make a shape and substract them or intergrate them by taking the lines away? hope that makes sense


Integrate both curve and line the take away one of them depending on question thats how i would do it

Making a shape is normally quicker - but often requires the use of formulas which you have to memorise.

Using lines in my opinion is easier, but is often longer, and often more errors are made this way (states this in several examiners reports) unless you have practised this method, I would use the shape one :smile:

If anyone not sure look at this

Good Luck
I really hope this is an easy paper seeing as C1 wasnt :P

I AM NOT READY FOR THIS!!

I also hope I dont have to draw a sine/cos/tan graph because I only learnt the CAST quadrant method :L

I dont know the area of a segment in a circle and havent come across it before. I normally found the area of the sector, then the area of the shape inside it (circle or triangle) and take them away from each other ??

Learn how the shape looks like generally and it follows the same pattern.

Sine - remmeber it goes through the zero.
Cos - It doesnt goes through zero
Tan- Its a sin graph flipped up

yes you just think of the infinity as being equal to zero

So infinity just means intergrate at zero?

good luck everyone

they may give to limits say infinty and -2
f(infinity)=0
f(infinity) equals - f(2)
i should really have gotten a new calculator all the buttons have been rubbed off
they may give to limits say infinty and -2f(infinity)=0f(infinity) - f(2)
