From memory she's one of them that's happy with its usage in 3U.

How about BOSTES/NCEA? Has there ever been a need for it's use in a 3U HSC Paper?
RuiAce:
There has never been a need for it. It only makes things more convenient, as implied in the original post

Which is why you've got to be careful - It's an atypical/extended method, and would only really be useful in a few circumstances I can think of :)

I feel like it's extremely useful when you have like v^2 in terms of t and you gotta find acceleration and it'd be wayyy easier to differentiate implicitly rather than square root then differentiate etc.

I have never seen this kind of problem appear in the scope of Extension 1.
