TopicProduct & Quotient Rules
TypeIntegration with differentiation context
DifficultyStandard +0.3 Part (i) is a straightforward application of the quotient rule with chain rule to verify a given result (tan 3θ = sin 3θ/cos 3θ), requiring standard differentiation techniques. Part (ii) uses the result to integrate tan²3θ by rearranging to isolate it, then integrating—a standard 'hence' question requiring algebraic manipulation and basic integration. This is slightly easier than average as it's guided, routine calculus with no novel problem-solving required.

  1. Using the quotient rule, show that \(\frac { \mathrm { d } } { \mathrm { d } \theta } ( \tan 3 \theta ) = 3 + 3 \tan ^ { 2 } 3 \theta\) for \(- \frac { 1 } { 6 } \pi < \theta < \frac { 1 } { 6 } \pi\).
  2. Hence find the value of \(\int _ { \frac { 1 } { 12 } \pi } ^ { \frac { 1 } { 9 } \pi } \tan ^ { 2 } 3 \theta \mathrm {~d} \theta\), giving your answer in the simplest exact form.
