Hi, I'm Ai Ling Ong. I enjoy coaching students who have challenges with understanding and scoring in 'O' Level A-Maths and E-Maths. I develop Math strategies, sometimes ridiculous ideas to help students in understanding abstract concepts the fast and memorable way. I write this blog to share with you the stuff I teach in my class, the common mistakes my students made, the 'way' to think, analyze... If you have found this blog post useful, please share it with your friends. I will really appreciate it! :)
Dear Miss Ong,
How do I integrate x ln x ?
May I know the reverse rule for product rule ?
Thank you ^^ Really appreciate the advice.
Cynthia,
I think this is a question from 2011 or 2012 GCE O-Level Additional Maths.
There's no reverse rule for product rule.
The main concept for such question is
Given: d/dx (apple) = orange
Integrate (orange) = [apple]
Yes, the same question appeared in other years' paper as well.
May I know what are the method for integrating part by part ? Really wish to salvage the 3 marks as I think that question may appear in exam...
