Vector vs. Scaler A vector has both a magnitude and direction , whereas a scaler has only a magnitude .
To convert a vector to a unit vector, you need to: 1. Calculate the magnitude using the Pythagoras theorem 2. Divide both axes with the magnitude Demonstration TODO: Write iframe c...
TODO Write and explain techniques. Choose Example $$ \begin{array}{0} 1+ax ^10 = 1^10 + 1^9 {10\choose {1}} ax ^1 + 1^8 + {10\choose {2}} ax ^2 \dots \end{array} $$ Year 13 Techniq...
Limits can be represented as either $ x ^a {b}$ or $\int^a {b}x$. The limits represent both the upper and lower bounds of a definite integral the interval over which to calculate t...
Integration is the reverse of Differentiation. It uses the formula $y = \frac{k}{n+1}x^{n+1} + c$ as long as $n \not= 1$. It can be summarised in three steps: 1. Add one to the pow...
A logarithm is the exponent to which a base must be raised to produce a given number. Equation $$ \begin{array}{0} a^x = b \\ x = \log {a}b \\ \end{array} $$ Usage Rules You cannot...
A stationary point on a curve is where the gradient is $0$. This occurs when $f' x = 0$. For example, the curve $y = x^2$ has a stationary point at $ 0, 0 $. Local Maximum and Mini...

To find the length of a line, you can use Pythagoras' Theorem. $$ A^2 = B^2 + C^2 $$ as: $$ d = \sqrt{ x^2 x^1 ^2 + y^2 y^2 ^2 } $$
Parallel lines are two lines which have the same gradient but never touch. Example $$ \begin{array}{1} y {1} = 5x + 2 \\ y {2} = 5x + 4 \end{array} $$ These linear lines are parall...
Perpendicular lines are two lines which meet at 90°. If a line has the gradient of $m$, a line perpendicular will have the gradient of $ \frac{1}{m}$. If two lines are perpendicula...
