Title: Spesh extra formulas and proofs?
Post by: YehNahBro on September 23, 2020, 09:40:30 pm

Hi all,
I'm making my bound reference and I was wondering if there are any other useful formulas that may not be in the formula sheet (i.e. SUVAT equations)? Thanks!

Vector / scalar resolutes.
Arc / chord length of circles.
Segment / sector area of circles.

There are also other shortcuts which are often useful, like the antiderivative of \(\frac{f'(x)}{f(x)}\) and the partial fraction expansion of \(\frac{1}{a^2 - b^2}\) but in these cases it's probably best to master the standard techniques before trying to memorise a formula.
