Although arccos is neither an odd nor an even function, it does satisfy the law $arccos(-x) = \pi -arccos x$ arctan is an odd function Your solutions involve an integer parameter, so there are infinitely many of them. If the original equation is periodic with period $2\pi $, you should rewrite your solutions so the solutions have the form $c + 2n\pi $. Then you will only need to check the solutions in one period.

Experiment numerically. The limit of a sum is the sum of the limits, at least if the limits exist. The limit of a difference is the difference of the limits, at least if the limits exist. The limit of a constant is that constant. The limit of $x$ as $x$ goes to $c$ is just $c$ itself. You can pull a constant through the limit. You can pull a minus sign through the limit. The limit of a product is the product of the limits, at least if the limits exist. The limit of a (constant) power is the power of the limit. The limit of $c^v$ is $c$ raised to the power $lim v$, when $c$ is constant. $lim u^v=(lim u)^(lim v)$ The limit of a square root is the square root of the limit, provided it is positive. The limit of an odd root is the root of the limit. The limit of a root is the root of the limit, provided it is positive. You can use MathXpert to calculate limits of polynomials in one step. Push the limit inside the absolute value sign. You can pull a constant out from the numerator using $lim cu/v = c lim u/v$ The limit of a reciprocal is the reciprocal of the limit; more generally for $c$ constant we have $lim c/v = c/lim v$ The limit of a quotient is the quotient of the limits, at least if the limit in the denominator is nonzero. Factor out powers of $(x-a)$ in a limit as $x$ approaches $a$. You can use MathXpert to calculate the limit of a rational function in one step. Sometimes it helps to write $a^n/b^n as (a/b)^n$. Rationalize the fraction. Look for that operation with the limit of quotients operations. Simplify your limit by pulling out a simple part of it which has a nonzero finite limits. This means to express $lim uv$ as $lim u lim v$, where $lim u$ is finite and nonzero. For example, you might pull out $sin(x)/x$ from the limit of $sin^2(x) /x$ as $x$ approaches 0. Factor out a constant. Multiply both numerator and denominator by something. The aim is to make the limit in the denominator nonzero. Divide both numerator and denominator by something. The aim is to make the limit in the denominator nonzero. Divide both numerator and denominator by something and then push the limit into numerator and denominator. Choose the quantity to divide by so that the denominator will have a nonzero limit.

Convert the product to a fraction by moving one or more factors to the denominator, creating a compound fraction. Put the fractions over a common denominator and simplify. There is a special limit formula involving $(sin t)/t$ There is a special limit formula involving $(tan t)/t$ There is a special limit formula involving $(1-cos t)/t$ There is a special limit formula involving $(1-cos t)/t^2$ There is a special limit formula involving $(1+t)^(1/t)$ There is a special limit formula involving $(ln(1+t))/t$ There is a special limit formula involving $(e^t-1)/t$ There is a special limit formula involving $(e^(-t)-1)/t$ The singularity of $ln x$ at the origin is so weak that any positive power of $t$ will kill it. MathXpert has an operation for handling such a limit in one step, or you can put the power in the denominator and use L'Hospital's rule. The function $cos(1/t)$ makes infinitely many oscillations between -1 and 1 as $t$ approaches 0. The function $sin(1/t)$ makes infinitely many oscillations between -1 and 1 as $t$ approaches 0. The function $tan(1/t)$ behaves quite wildly as $t$ approaches 0. The function $cos t$ makes infinitely many oscillations between -1 and 1 as $t$ approaches infinity. The function $sin t$ makes infinitely many oscillations between -1 and 1 as $t$ approaches infinity. The function $tan t$ takes on all real values for arbitrarily large $t$, so it can't approach any limit as $t$ approaches infinity. There is a special limit formula involving $(sinh t)/t$ There is a special limit formula involving $(tanh t)/t$ There is a special limit formula involving $(cosh t -1)/t$ There is a special limit formula involving $(cosh t - 1)/t^2$ The limit of a ln is the ln of the limit, at least if it's positive. Limits of continuous functions are calculated by $lim f(u)=f(lim u)$. In fact, this is the \it definition \rm of continuity. You can change the limit variable using the formula for composition of functions. Namely, $$lim(t->a,f(g(t)))=lim(u->g(a),f(u))$$ You can ask MathXpert to evaluate a simple limit in one step. To calculate the limit of a non-constant power, first make the base be constant, using the law $lim u^v = lim e^(v ln u)$. If the limit of a product seems to be indeterminate, you can try the law: $lim uv = lim v/(1/u)$. Sometimes the resulting limit of a quotient can be evaluated. A limit is undefined if the function whose limit is being taken limit fails to be defined in a suitable neighborhood of the limit point. Try the law: $$lim(t->a, u) = e^(lim(t->a, ln u))$$ Maybe you can remove a troublesome term, perhaps an oscillatory factor, using the squeeze theorem. You can try something similar to rationalizing the numerator, even though there is no numerator: $$lim(t->a, sqrt(u)-v)=lim(t->a, (sqrt(u)-v)(sqrt(u)+v)/(sqrt(u)+v))$$ You can neglect all but the leading terms in numerator and denominator. A complicated limit can be replaced by the limit of the leading term. You can replace a sum by its leading term in a limit under certain conditions, but not always. You must take care that the leading terms don't cancel out to zero, causing you to lose the real answer among the terms you neglected. An expression with undefined parts is itself undefined $lim(e^u) = e^(lim u)$ $lim(ln u) = ln(lim u)$ An algebraic function always dominates a logarithm. For $t$ large, $t^n$ is large too, so $1/t^n$ is small. For $t$ large, $t^n$ is large too. For $t$ large, $e^t$ is large too. For $t$ large and negative, $e^t$ is very small. For $t$ large, $ln t$ is large too. For $t$ large, $\sqrt t$ is large, too. For $t$ large, $^n\sqrt t$ is large, too. For $abs(t)$ large, $arctan t$ is close to $pi/2$ or $-pi/2$ The arccot of a large positive number is close to zero. The arccot of a large negative number is close to $pi$ For $abs(t)$ large, $tanh t$ is close to 1 or -1. $lim \sqrt u-v=lim (\sqrt u-v)(\sqrt u+v)/\sqrt u+v)$ $lim(sin u) = sin(lim u)$ if the limit is finite. $lim(cos u) = cos(lim u)$ if the limit is finite Limits at infinity can be transformed to limits at zero if $f(t)$ is replaced by $f(1/t)$. For $u$ small, $1/u^2^n$ is large. For $u$ small, $1/u^n$ is large, but if $n$ is odd, it has opposite signs for $u$ positive and $u$ negative, which makes trouble for the two-sided limit as $u$ approaches zero. For $u$ small and positive, $1/u^n$ is large. For $u$ small and negative, $1/u^n$ is large and (if $n$ is odd) negative. If the denominator goes to zero and the numerator does not, then the limit is undefined. For $t$ small and positive, $ln t$ is large and negative. tan $t$ has singularities at odd multiples of $\pi /2$. But it approaches the singularities with different signs from the left and right. cot $t$ has singularities at multiples of $\pi $. But it approaches the singularities with different signs from the left and right. sec $t$ has singularities at odd multiples of $\pi /2$. But it approaches the singularities with different signs from the left and right. csc $t$ has singularities at multiples of $\pi $. But it approaches the singularities with different signs from the left and right.

Here a 'constant' means anything that doesn't depend on the variable with respect to which you are differentiating. You have an expression $dx/dx$. This should evaluate to 1. The derivative of a sum is the sum of the derivatives. You can pull a minus sign out through the derivative sign You can pull a constant out through the derivative sign Use the 'power law' for differentiating a power. You can use MathXpert to differentiate a polynomial in one step. By definition, $f'(x) = d/dx f(x)$. Use the formula that defines a derivative as a certain limit. It's with the other operations for derivatives. You can ask MathXpert to differentiate a polynomial in one step. The derivative of a sum (or difference) is the sum (or difference) of the derivatives. You have a constant in the denominator. Pull it out using: $$diff(u/c,x)=(1/c)diff(u,x)$$. Any constants in the numerator will also come out. Use the 'product rule' for derivatives There is a simple formula for the derivative of a reciprocal: $$diff(1/v,x) = -diff(v,x)/v^2$$ It's well worth memorizing this special case of the quotient rule. Use the 'quotient rule' for derivatives There is a formula for the derivative of a square root. Often it is much simpler to differentiate a square root directly, rather than convert it to a fractional exponent and use the power law. To differentiate a root, first convert it to fractional exponent form. To differentiate a power in the denominator, you don't have to first convert it to a negative exponent as so many students do. You can use the power law directly in the form: $$diff(c/x^n,x) = -nc/x^(n+1)$$ There is a simple formula for differentiating absolute values: $d/dx |x| = x/|x|$. If your textbook omits this formula, check it yourself by considering separately the cases when $x$ is positive and negative. Of course, both sides of the formula are undefined when $x=0$.

There is a formula for the integral of $tan^2 t$, or you can do it by parts. There is a formula for the integral of $cot^2 t$, or you can do it by parts. $sec t tan t$ can be directly integrated, since it is the derivative of $sec t$. $csc t cot t$ can be directly integrated, since it is the derivative of $csc t$. The exponential function is its own integral: $$integral(e^t,t) = e^t$$ An exponential function is its own integral, but if the exponent contains a constant the integral has a corresponding factor: $\int e^at dt =(1/a) e^at$ $\int e^(-t)dt = -e^(-t)$ $\int e^(-at)dt = -(1/a) e^(-at)$ $\int e^(t/a)dt = a e^(t/a)$ An exponential function is its own integral, except that if the base is not $e$, then a constant factor must be thrown in. $\int u^v dt = \int (e^(v ln u) dt$ $\int ln t = t ln t - t$ $\int e^(-t^2) dt = \sqrt \pi /2 Erf(t)$ Try integration by substitution compute $du/dx$ Evaluate the derivative Get back your original integral with 'show integral again'
