For those in Sec 3s, you will be learning more about Quadratic Graphs. Not so much of the drawing like in Sec 2s, but more of indepth understanding.
A quadratic graph typically is either a smiley face :) or a sad face :( some prefer to call them U or n shape.
Q1: Do you know how to tell the "mood" of the quadratic graph given its equation? Be very speific to ensure crystal clear understanding.
Eg
:) or :(

Hello World,
I believe most of the students have received your streaming outcome. I certainly hope that you have gotten the subject combination that you have chosen.
The other day I was at Brass Basah Complex, Popular Bookstore. I was shocked to find that Popular has already stocked up with all the textbooks and parents are already armed with the booklist, doing the purchases for their children. I guess for you folks, you are doing your own purchase since you all afterall are youths :)
Another question from O Level Additional Mathematics (A-Math).

i came across this qu that day, and i really want to clarify if the method i used is correct or not.int(tan^2x - x^3)
i changed it to int(sec^2x - 1 - x^3) instead, cos i don't think we can integrate tan.
is that feasible?
Absolutely. Since tan^2 x can't be integrated, you must think of alternative by making use of the relationship of tan^2 x + 1 = sec^2 x

hey. i just want to clarify something that i'm not very sure of.
is nCr x r! = nPr ??
By definition,
nCr = nPr/r!
Well, I never remember this 'rule'
For example, find the number of ways to form a 3 letter word from a,b,c,d,e
Student #1:
5C1*4C1*3C1
Student #2:
5P3
Both answers are correct though different approaches are taken, so no need to remember the 'rule'
