Homework Statement
prove that sin^4theta + cos^4 theta =1/4 (3+cos4theta).hence,find the greatest and least value of sin^4theta + cos^4 theta.
please give hints to start . no idea at all...i start from the RHS and get 2cos^4 theta - 2 cos^2 theta +1 , then how sin^4theta + cos^4 theta...
I start after from my showing.
x dv/dx = (v-2)(v+1)
dv/dx = (v-2)(v+1) / x
dx/dv = x / (v-x)(v+1)
1/x dx = 1 / (v-2)(v+1) dv
Then I start to integrate , I am still new , so I don't know how to use to type the symbol.Sorry for the inconvenience.
1/x dx = 1/3 ( (1 / (v-2) )- ( 1/ (v+1) )...
Homework Statement
Substituition y=vx , differential equation x2dy/dx = y2-2x2 can be show in the form x dv/dx = (v-2)(v+1)
Hence , solve the differential equation x dv/dx = (v-2)(v+1) ,expressing answer in the form of y as a function of x in the case where y > 2x > 0 .
