In entrance exams we have to learn all kinds of tricks and techniques for definite, indefinite integrals with extremely hard word problems. In last year of high school we have to learn all kinds in order to get into good college like IITs, NIT and IIITs. Its hell for indian students to get into a good college in india.

      @@priyanshumaurya007 they don't teach us that much here in the Philippines, the depth and clarity of learning also depends on the teachers themselves. It also became harder for students to study in college (the college entrance exam is dependent on the school's standards) when the K-12 program was implemented, the program just copied some subjects to grades 11 and 12 then removed "pre-requisite" subjects of major subjects in specific courses. So yeah, the quality of education here in the Philippines is not that very good but not that very bad, just tolerable. That's just my opinion.

    I don't know if this is something you mentioned, but another way to phrase trick 2: f'(x)/[square of denominator], times the determinant of the coefficient matrix.
    In the implicit differentiation trick, once the dust settles, f'= -2x(7x+3)/((x-3)^5).

    The higher order derivative shortcut for the product rule is often taught in mathematical physics courses, which is usually co-listed in mathematics and physics departments and can normally be taken for credit in either department and something both.

    • @mathematix-rodcast

      The shortcut derivative using the reciprocals with respect to y at 18:30 falls out because inverse functions have reciprocal slopes.

  • @Robin1997311

    Does dy/dx = 1/ (dx/dy) hold true for all functions that are differentiable? Or are there some conditions involved when using this trick, such as availability of inverse functions(one to one relationship), etc? Because I've seen many cases where many cool math formulas don't hold true under certain situations ..... For instance, for this trick, what if we apply it to y = x^2 ? This is a simple function, but if we use this formula, I don't know how it will work because if we write it in terms of x, it is no longer a function unless we divide it into two sections ( x = root(y) or x = - root(y)), whic makes it kind of awkward to differenciate.... How do you apply the formula to these kinds of cases?
    Thus my question would be, does the equation dy/dx = 1/ (dx/dy) actually hold true for all cases such as this, as long as it's differentiable? How would it be possible for functions that are not invertible (like y = x^2 , y = x^3 - 6x , etc...) I would really appreciate your reply.

    • @BriTheMathGuy
      @BriTheMathGuy  4 роки тому +5

      This trick is sort just a shorthand notation for the formula for the derivative of an inverse function. So yes - the function would need to be invertible for this to work. (maybe there are special cases to get around this, but in general the inverse is required to exist)

    • @MichaelRothwell1
      @MichaelRothwell1 3 роки тому +1

      The situation with √x is exactly the same as the situation with arctan x (which Brian used as an example). That is, in each case, to get the inverse function you first have to restrict the domain of the original function so it covers its range exactly once: ]-π/2,π/2[ for tan x and x≥0 for x². The trick worked fine for arctan x and it works fine for √x. I must, however, correct a slip. When Brian said: "y=arctan x x=tan y by definition", what he meant was: "y=arctan x x=tan y where y in ]-π/2,π/2[ by definition".

    If d/dx(f(x,y)) = -fx/fy
    It implies that df/dx is = 0 or not?
    Because df/dx = fx + fy*dy/dx
    (df/dx - fx)/fy = dy/dx

    Really believe me the triangle was not invented by Pascal for the first time. He called Khyyam, a Persian Mathematician app 250 year before Pascal who invented the triangle as a coefficient in binominal expansion. Anyhow the triangle is called Khayyam-Pascal triangle to honor both.

    Ex: e^(y)cos(x)=1 + sin(xy)
    Or perhaps I really just don't know what I'm doing. c: I'm tryin' though!

    Not tricks! These are shortcuts at best, learned from years of use. Kind of how we can decompose equations into various forms to more readily extract information from them, and later extrapolate to a general form, like we do reducing the steps to get and then applying the quadratic formula to get the roots.
