1 – Partial Be able to split a fraction whose The textbook provides two methods for dealing with top Forgetting the extra term when the Fractions denominator is a product of heavy fractions. The algebraic long division method is miles denominator’s factors are squared. linear expressions, e.g. 2𝑥+3 easier! Being sloppy at algebraic long division! 𝑥(𝑥+1) 𝑥 2 +2 𝑥 2 +2 e.g. 𝑥(𝑥+1) = 𝑥 2 +𝑥. Using long division we get a quotient of 1 Be careful with substitution of negative Be able to split a fraction where values. one (or more) of the factors in and a remainder of −𝑥 + 2, thus: You may have to spot that you need to the denominator are squared, 𝑥2 + 2 −𝑥 + 2 2𝑥+3 =1+ factorise the denominator first before e.g. 2 (𝑥+1) 2 𝑥 +𝑥 𝑥(𝑥 + 1) 𝑥 −𝑥+2 expressing as partial fractions. Deal with top-heavy fractions Then split the into partial fractions as normal. 𝑥(𝑥+1) Not realising the fraction is top heavy and where the highest power in the Don’t forget that when you have a squared factor in the therefore trying to incorrectly do: denominator is greater or equal denominator, you need two fractions in your partial fraction 2𝑥 2 𝐴 𝐵 to the highest power in the = + sum: 𝑥(𝑥 + 1) 𝑥 𝑥 + 1 𝑥 2 +2 2 𝐴 𝐵 𝐶 denominator, e.g ≡ + 2+ 𝑥(𝑥+1) 2 𝑥 (𝑥 + 1) 𝑥 𝑥 𝑥+1 When you have three unknowns it’s generally easiest to use substitution to get two of them (e.g. the 𝐴 and the 𝐵) then compare the coefficients of 𝑥 2 to get the 𝐶. For the above example: 2 ≡ 𝐴𝑥(𝑥 + 1) + 𝐵(𝑥 + 1) + 𝐶𝑥 2 We can see immediately, without needing to write out the expansion, that 0 = 𝐴 + 𝐶, by comparing 𝑥 2 terms. 2 – Parametric 𝑑𝑦 ( 𝑑𝑦 ) Note: You will NOT be asked to sketch parametric equations. Hitting a dead end converting parametric Know that = 𝑑𝑡 Equations 𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥 ( ) To convert parametric equations involving trig functions to equations to Cartesian. See tips on left. 𝑑𝑡 𝑑𝑥 (This makes sense as we have just divided Cartesian ones, the strategy is usually to make sin 𝑥 and Forgetting to multiply by 𝑑𝑡 when numerator and denominator by 𝑑𝑡) cos 𝑥 the subject before using the identity sin2 𝑥 + cos2 𝑥 ≡ integrating parametric equations. Be able to integrate parametric 1. Often squaring one of the parametric equations helps so equations. Remember that the 𝑑𝑥 in ∫ 𝑦 𝑑𝑥 can be that we have sin2 𝑥 and/or cos 2 𝑥: 𝑑𝑥 Be able to convert parametric 𝑥 = √3 sin 2𝑡 𝑦 = 4 cos 2 𝑡 replaced with 𝑑𝑡 𝑑𝑡, which is easy to equations into a single Cartesian 𝑥 = 2√3 sin 𝑡 cos 𝑡 remember, as the 𝑑𝑡’s cancel if we think of one. 𝑥 2 = 12 sin2 𝑡 cos 2 𝑡 𝑑𝑥 and 𝑑𝑡 just as quantities. 𝑥 2 = 12(1 − cos 2 𝑡) cos 2 𝑡 𝑦 2 𝑦 𝑥 2 = 12 (1 − ( ) ) 4 4 3 – Binomial Expanding out an expression of (1 + 𝑘𝑥)𝑛 = 1 + 𝑛(𝑘𝑥) + 𝑛(𝑛−1) (𝑘𝑥)2 Many things! Expansion the form (1 + 𝑘𝑥)𝑛 , where 𝑛 is 2! 𝑛(𝑛 − 1)(𝑛 − 2) Lack of brackets when squaring/cubing negative or fractional. + (𝑘𝑥)3 + ⋯ things, e.g. you need (2𝑥)3 = 8𝑥 3 not 2𝑥 3 3! Expanding out an expression of Your expression may be a binomial expansion in disguise, e.g. With say (3 + 4𝑥)−1, forgetting to raise the the form (𝑎 + 𝑘𝑥)𝑛 , where 𝑎 1 3 3 you factor out to the power of -1. 1 1 1 − ×− needs to be factorised out first. (1 − = − 2𝑥) = 1 + (− ) 2 (−2𝑥) + 2 2 (−2𝑥)2 + ⋯ Forgetting to put the factorial in the √1 − 2𝑥 2 2! Finding the product of two denominators of the Binomial coefficients When the first term is not 1, you have to factorise this □ □ Binomial expansions, e.g. (a common error is instead of ) number out, raised to the power outside the brackets. e.g. 3 3! √1 + 𝑥 1 1 1 Being careless in using your calculator when → (1 + 𝑥)2 (1 − 𝑥)−2 1 1 5 2 √1 − 𝑥 (4 + 5𝑥)2 = 42 (1 + 𝑥) simplifying coefficients. 4 Be ridiculously careful with signs! 1 5 = 2 [1 + ( 𝑥) + ⋯ ] Accidentally forgetting the minus in the 2 4 1 Ensure the outer brackets are maintained till the very end, power when expanding say (𝑥+1)2 when you expand them out. When finding the product of two expansions, then if you needed up to the 𝑥 2 term, then you only need to find up to the 𝑥 2 term in each of the two expansions. Only consider things in the expansion which are up to 𝑥 2 . e.g. 1 + 𝑥 √1 + 𝑥 1 1 √ = = (1 + 𝑥)2 (1 − 𝑥)−2 1 − 𝑥 √1 − 𝑥 1 1 1 (1 + 𝑥)2 ≈ 1 + 𝑥 − 𝑥 2 2 8 − 1 1 3 (1 − 𝑥) 2 ≈ 1 + 𝑥 + 𝑥 2 2 8 1 1 1 1 1 3 (1 + 𝑥)2 (1 − 𝑥)−2 ≈ (1 + 𝑥 − 𝑥 2 ) (1 + 𝑥 + 𝑥 2 ) 2 8 2 8 1 3 1 1 1 = 1 + 𝑥 + 𝑥2 + 𝑥 + 𝑥2 − 𝑥2 2 8 2 4 8 1 = 1 + 𝑥 + 𝑥2 2 4- Appreciate that 𝑦 = 𝑎 𝑥 Example of implicit differentiation (which involves collecting A classic is to accidentally treat 𝑥 or 𝑦 as Differentiation represents ‘exponential growth’ 𝑑𝑦 constants rather than variables, when the terms on one side and factorising it out): 𝑑𝑥 when 𝑎 > 1, and ‘exponential 𝑑𝑦 differentiating implicitly. Note that decay’ when 0 < 𝑎 < 1 (and “Given that 𝑥𝑦 2 + 2𝑦 = 𝑥 2 , find .” 𝑑 𝑑 𝑑𝑥 (𝑎𝑥) = 𝑎 if 𝑎 is a constant, but (𝑥𝑦) = Differentiating both sides with respect to 𝑥: 𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥 from C3, know the graphs for 𝑑𝑦 each). 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑦 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 + 𝑦 by the product rule, and not just 𝑦. 𝑥 (2𝑦 ) + 𝑦2 + 2 = 2𝑥 𝑑 Know that 𝑑𝑥 (𝑎 𝑥 ) = 𝑎 𝑥 ln 𝑎 𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥 When differentiating implicitly, you might 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑦 𝑑 (2𝑥𝑦 + 2) = 2𝑥 − 𝑦 2 forget to put the 𝑑𝑥, e.g. 𝑑𝑥 (𝑦 2 ) = 2𝑦 (proof unlikely to be asked for) 𝑑𝑥 Be able to differentiate 𝑑𝑦 2𝑥 − 𝑦 2 rather than the correct 2𝑦 𝑑𝑦 = 𝑑𝑥 𝑑 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑥 2𝑥𝑦 + 2 implicitly, e.g. 𝑑𝑥 (𝑦 2 ) = 2𝑦 𝑑𝑥 Exponential functions do not behave like They particularly love use of the product rule! and subsequently be able to polynomials when differentiated. e.g. 𝑑𝑦 A ‘differential equation’ is an equation involving both some 𝑑 𝑑 make 𝑑𝑥 the subject. variables and derivatives involving those variables, e.g. a mix (𝑥 3 ) = 3𝑥 2 , but (3𝑥 ) = 3𝑥 ln 3, and 𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥 Be able to set up differential 𝑑𝑦 of 𝑥, 𝑦 and 𝑑𝑥. ‘Solving’ this equation means to obtain an absolutely not 𝑥 ⋅ 3𝑥−1 ! equations, e.g. understand that Many students often get their equation equation only involving the variables, and not the derivatives. “the temperature falls at a rate wrong when connecting rates of change, Whenever you see the word ‘rate’, think /𝑑𝑡. proportional to its current often say dividing instead of multiplying, or “A circle’s radius increases at a rate of 2cm/s. Find the rate of temperature” could be vice versa. If you use the ‘fill in the increase of its area when the radius is 10cm.” 𝑑𝑇 represented as 𝑑𝑡 = −𝑘𝑇 diagonals’ tip on the left this will unlikely be First note the variables involved: 𝐴, 𝑟 and because we’re a problem. Connect different derivatives 𝑑𝐴 talking about rates, 𝑡. We need to find . Since derivatives 𝑑𝐴 𝑑𝐴 𝑑𝑡 𝑑𝑡 involving rates, e.g. 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑑𝑡 × 𝑑𝑥 behave pretty much like normal fractions, first write the following product with the 𝑑𝐴 and 𝑑𝑡 copied into the diagonals: 𝑑𝐴 𝑑𝐴 □ = × 𝑑𝑡 □ 𝑑𝑡 Then fill the remaining diagonals with the remaining variable, 𝑑𝐴 𝑑𝐴 𝑑𝑟 𝑑𝑟: = × 𝑑𝑡 𝑑𝑟 𝑑𝑡 𝑑𝑟 One value, in this case 𝑑𝑡 = 2, is always given. The other we need to form some formula, in this case 𝐴 = 𝜋𝑟 2 (and often using simple geometry to find an area of volume), and differentiate: 𝑑𝐴 = 2𝜋𝑟 𝑑𝑟 𝑑𝐴 Thus when 𝑟 = 10, 𝑑𝑟 = 2 × 𝜋 × 10 = 20𝜋 𝑑𝐴 Thus: 𝑑𝑡 = 20𝜋 × 2 = 40𝜋 5 - Vectors (In rough descending order of how When you see the 𝑖, 𝑗, 𝑘 unit vectors used in an exam When finding the angle between two lines, frequently they appear in exams) question, never actually use this notation yourself: always accidentally using the full vector Find the point of intersection of just write all vectors in conventional column vector form. representation of the line (in your dot two lines or prove that two lines Almost always draw a suitable diagram. This will be product), and not just the direction do not intersect. particularly helpful when you need to find the area of some 1−𝑡 Find the angle between two shape (typically the last part of a question). component, e.g. using ( 2 ) instead of lines. When finding the area of a shape, you can almost always use 3 + 2𝑡 −1 Finding a missing 𝑥/𝑦/𝑧 value of your answers from previous parts of the questions, including just the correct ( 0 ). a point on a line. lengths of vectors and angles between two vectors. 𝑡 Find the length of a vector or the 1 Remember that area of non-right angled triangle = 2 𝑎𝑏 sin 𝐶 Making sign errors when subtracting distance between two points. where the angle 𝐶 appears between the two sides 𝑎 and 𝑏. A vectors, particularly when subtracting an Find the nearest point on a line parallelogram can be cut in half to form two congruent non- expression involving a negative. Correctly: to a point not on the line (often right angled triangles (i.e. multiply by 2). 1 1−𝑡 𝑡 the origin) – note: not in your (2) − ( −2 ) = ( 4 ) To show 3 points 𝐴, 𝐵, 𝐶 are collinear, just show that ⃗⃗⃗⃗⃗ 𝐴𝐵 is a 7 − 2𝑡 textbook! 3 2𝑡 − 4 ⃗⃗⃗⃗⃗ multiple of 𝐵𝐶 (i.e. vectors are parallel). Once finding out 𝑠 and 𝑡 (or 𝜇 and 𝜆) when Show lines are perpendicular. “Show 3𝒊 + 3𝒋 + 2𝒌 lies on the line with vector equation 𝑟 = solving simultaneous equation to find the Show a point lies on a line. 𝒊 + 3𝒋 + 4𝒌 + 𝑡(𝒊 − 𝒌)” intersection of two lines, forgetting to show Show 3 points are collinear (i.e. 3 1+𝑡 lie on the same straight line) that these satisfy the remaining equation. i.e. Show (3) lies on ( 3 ). Equating 3 = 1 + 𝑡 to 𝑡 = 2. Forgetting the square root when finding the Find the area of a rectangle, 2 4−𝑡 parallelogram or triangle formed magnitude of a vector. Then 4 − 𝑡 = 4 − 2 = 2, so 𝑦 and 𝑧 components are same. by vectors. “Let 𝑙1 : 𝒓 = (9𝒊 + 13𝒋 − 3𝒌) + 𝜆(𝒊 + 4𝒋 − 2𝒌) Find the equation of a line.

𝑃 is just a point on the line so can be 9+𝜆 represented as ( 13 + 4𝜆 ) for some specific 𝜆 we need to −3 − 2𝜆 find. 1 Direction vector of 𝑙1 is ( 4 ) −2 4 9+𝜆 −5 − 𝜆 ⃗⃗⃗⃗⃗ 𝑃𝐴 = ( 16 ) − ( 13 + 4𝜆 ) = ( 3 − 4𝜆 ) −3 −3 − 2𝜆 2𝜆 −5 − 𝜆 1 Thus: ( 3 − 4𝜆 ) ⋅ ( 4 ) = 0 2𝜆 −2 −5 − 𝜆 + 12 − 16𝜆 − 4𝜆 = 0 1 𝜆= 3 1 1 9+ 9 3 3 Thus: 𝑃 = 13 + 4(13) = 14 13 1 2 −3 − 2( ) −3 ( 3 ) ( 3) 6 - Integration Integrate a large variety of One often forgotten integration is exponential functions such Where to start! expressions. See the ‘integration as 2𝑥 . Differentiating has effect of multiplying by 𝑙𝑛 of the One big problem is just not knowing what cheat sheet’ overleaf. But by base, and thus integrating divides by it. i.e. method to use to integrate a particular category: 𝑑 𝑥 1 𝑥 expression. The cheat sheet overleaf should (2 ) = ln 2 ⋅ 2𝑥 ∫ 2𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = 2 +𝐶 o Integrating trig 𝑑𝑥 ln 2 help, as should lots of practice of a variety functions, including Know the two double angle formulae for 𝑐𝑜𝑠 like the back of of expressions! reciprocal functions and your hand, for use when integrating sin2 𝑥 or cos 2 𝑥 Similarly getting stuck on integration by squared functions In general, know your integrals of all the ‘trig squares’, i.e. substitution, because you can’t get the sin2 𝑥, cos2 𝑥 , sec 2 2𝑥, sin2 𝑥 , cos2 𝑥 , tan2 𝑥 , 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑒𝑐 2 𝑥, sec 2 𝑥 , cot 2 𝑥 whole original expression only in terms of etc. For integration by ‘reverse chain rule’, always ‘consider’ the new variable (𝑡 or otherwise). o Integrating by ‘reverse some sensible expression to differentiate, then adjust for the Perhaps the all-time biggest mistake is chain rule’ (also known factor difference. e.g. forgetting to consider the effects of chain as ‘integration by ∫(4 − 3𝑥)5 𝑑𝑥 rule. e.g. Accidentally doing inspection’). Then your working might be: ∫ cos 2𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = sin 2𝑥 o Integrating by a given substitution. “Consider 𝑦 = (4 − 3𝑥)6 . Then Sign errors when integrating/differentiating 𝑑𝑦 o Integration by parts. = 6(4 − 3𝑥)5 × (−3) = −18(4 − 3𝑥)5 trig functions. Other than sin and cos, be 𝑑𝑥 o Integrating by use of 1 careful about cot/cosec: partial fractions. ∴ ∫(4 − 3𝑥)5 𝑑𝑥 = − (4 − 3𝑥)6 + 𝐶 𝑑 18 (cot 𝑥) = −𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑒𝑐 2 𝑥 o Integrating top heavy For integration by substitution, the official specification says 𝑑𝑥 fractions by algebraic “Except in the simplest of cases, the substitution will be thus ∫ 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑒𝑐 2 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = − cot 𝑥 + 𝐶 division. given.” A common one: Forgetting about the chain Remember that starting with the substitution, say 𝑢 = 𝑥 2 + rule when integrating expressions of the 1, it helps to make 𝑥 the subject, except in some cases where form (𝑎 + 𝑏𝑥)𝑐 , see ∫(4 − 3𝑥)5 𝑑𝑥 there’s a trigonometric substitution, e.g. if 𝑢 = sin 𝑥 + 1, but example. sin 𝑥 appears in the expression to integrate, then we might Be able to differentiate make sin 𝑥 the subject instead. Remember that constants differentiate to parametric equations: Differentiate and make 𝑑𝑥 the subject also, then ensure 𝑑 nothing, i.e. (𝜋 2 ) = 0 not 2𝜋! 𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥 original expression is only in terms of new variable. ∫ 𝑦 𝑑𝑥 = ∫ 𝑦 𝑑𝑡 Similarly ln 𝑐 is a constant. 𝑥 ln 2 would 𝑑𝑡 Don’t feel as if you need to memorise a separate formula for differentiate to ln 2. Calculate volumes of revolution 𝑑𝑥 parametric volumes of revolution, since 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑑𝑡 clearly by 𝑑𝑡 If 𝑢2 = 𝑥 + 1 is the substitution, you’re both for normal and parametric the fact that the 𝑑𝑡’s cancel. doing unnecessary work if you then square equations: You have to change the limits whenever you do either of: (a) root. Differentiating implicitly: 𝑉 = 𝜋∫ 𝑦 2 𝑑𝑥 parametric integration or (b) integration by substitution, 𝑑𝑢 𝑑𝑥 2𝑢 =1 𝑉 = 𝜋 ∫ 𝑦2 𝑑𝑡 because you’re integrating in terms of a new variable. 𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑡 𝑎 𝑑𝑥 = 2𝑢 𝑑𝑢 This is more use for STEP, but remember that ∫𝑏 𝑓(𝑥)𝑑𝑥 = Solve differential equations. This is much much tidier! 𝑏 𝑑𝑦 − ∫𝑎 𝑓(𝑥), useful when the limits are the wrong way round. e.g. 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑥𝑦 + 𝑥 Forgetting to change your limits for either Trapezium Rule as per C2, but You can tidy things up sometimes using − ∫ −𝑓(𝑥)𝑑𝑥 = parametric integration or integration by now with C3/C4 expressions to + ∫ 𝑓(𝑥)𝑑𝑥, since the -1 can be factored out the integral. substitution! integrate. You will frequently be For integration by parts, if you ever have to IBP twice, write But note that in integration by substitution, asked to compare the actual the second integral as a separate result first before once you’ve changed back to the original error and the estimated area substituting it in after. This is to avoid sign errors and keep variable (probably 𝑥), you should use the using the rule, and the things tidy. e.g. Workings might be: original limits. percentage error. ∫ 𝑥 2 cos 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 Don’t try and use integration by parts if you 𝑑𝑣 can use ‘integration by inspection’. 𝑢 = 𝑥2 = cos 𝑥 2 e.g. For ∫ 𝑥 𝑒 𝑥 , then integration by parts 𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑢 would lead to a dead end. = 2𝑥 𝑣 = sin 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 For differential equations, ensure the 2 2 ∫ 𝑥 sin 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑥 sin 𝑥 − ∫ 2𝑥 sin 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 𝑑□ variable at the top of the 𝑑□ matches what “For ∫ 2𝑥 sin 𝑥 𝑑𝑥:” you’ve moved to the LHS. e.g. If 𝑑𝑣 𝑑𝑡 𝑢 = 2𝑥 = sin 𝑥 = 𝑟2𝑡 𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑟 𝑑𝑢 = 2 𝑣 = − cos 𝑥 then it’s the 𝑡 you want on the LHS. 𝑑𝑥 ∫ 2𝑥 sin 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = −2𝑥 cos 𝑥 − ∫ −2 cos 𝑥 𝑑𝑥
= −2𝑥 cos 𝑥 + ∫ 2 cos 𝑥 𝑑𝑥
= −2𝑥 cos 𝑥 + 2 sin 𝑥 ∴ ∫ 𝑥 cos 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑥 2 sin 𝑥 − (−2𝑥 cos 𝑥 + 2 sin 𝑥) 2
= 𝑥 2 sin 𝑥 + 2𝑥 cos 𝑥 − 2 sin 𝑥 + 𝐶
Note the nice double negative tidying up trick towards the end. 𝑑𝑦 If you’re solving 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑥𝑦 + 𝑦, then you need the 𝑦 (or 𝑑𝑦 whatever variable appears at the top of ) on the LHS. This 𝑑𝑥 is always achieved by a division or multiplication, which may require factorisation first: 𝑑𝑦 1 𝑑𝑦 = 𝑦(𝑥 + 1) = 𝑥+1 𝑑𝑥 𝑦 𝑑𝑥 1 1 ∫ 𝑑𝑦 = ∫ 𝑥 + 1 𝑑𝑥 ln|𝑦| = 𝑥 2 + 𝑥 + 𝐶 𝑦 2 1 2 1 2 𝑦 = 𝑒 2𝑥 +𝑥+𝐶 = 𝐴𝑒 2𝑥 +𝑥 Note in the above example, we let some new constant 𝐴 = 𝑒 𝐶 to help tidy things up. If we had ln 𝑥 + 𝐶 on the right- hand-side, we’d make 𝐶 = ln 𝐴 so that ln 𝑥 + ln 𝐴 = ln(𝐴𝑥). Similarly if we had ln 𝑦 = 𝑥 + 𝐶, and hence 𝑦 = 𝑒 𝑥+𝐶 = 𝑒 𝑥 𝑒 𝐶 , we could make 𝐴 = 𝑒 𝐶 . In differential equations, ensure you separate the RHS into the form 𝑓(𝑥)𝑔(𝑦) first so that you are able to divide by 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑦 1 𝑔(𝑦), e.g. 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑥 + 𝑥𝑦 → 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑥(1 + 𝑦) → 1+𝑦 𝑑𝑦 = 𝑥 𝑑𝑥 In differential equations, if you’re given initial conditions (note, often 𝑡 = 0 is often implied for the initial condition), then it’s generally easier to plug them in to work out your constant of integration sooner rather than later.
