Integration by partsA special rule, integration by parts, is available for integrating
products of two functions. This unit derives and illustrates this rule with a
number of examples. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

Surds and other rootsRoots and powers are closely related, but only some roots can be written as
whole numbers. Surds are roots which cannot be written in this way.
Nevertheless, it is possible to manipulate surds, and to simplify formulae.

Vectors - Scalar Product 1One of the ways in which two vectors can be combined is known as the scalar product. When we calculate the scalar product of two vectors the result, as the name suggests is a scalar, rather than a vector.

Factorising Quadratic EquationsAn essential skill in many applications is the ability to factorise quadratic expressions. In this unit you will see that this can be thought of as reversing the process used to 'remove' or 'multiply-out' brackets from an expression.

Integration as a summationThe second major component of the Calculus is called integration. This
may be introduced as a means of finding areas using summation and limits. We
shall adopt this approach in the present Unit. In later units, we shall also
see how integration may be related to differentiation. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

Integration that leads to log functionsThis unit is concerned with integrals which lead to logarithms.
Whenever the integrand is fraction with denominator f(x) and numerator f'(x)
the result of integrating is the natural logarithm of f(x). This unit illustrates this
behaviour with several examples. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

Expanding & Removing BracketsIn this unit we see how to expand an expression containing brackets. By this we mean to rewrite the expression in an equivalent form without any brackets in. Fluency with this sort of algebraic manipulation is an essential skill which is vital for further study.

Completing the Square 5In this unit we consider how quadratic expressions can be written in an equivalent form using the technique known as completing the square. This technique has applications in a number of areas, but we will see an example of its use in solving a quadratic equation.

Linear functionsSome of the most important functions are linear. This unit describes how to
recognize a linear function, and how to find the slope and the y-intercept
of its graph. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

Rules of arithmeticEvaluating expressions involving numbers is one of the basic tasks in
arithmetic. But if an expression is complicated then it may not be clear
which part of it should be evaluated first, and so some rules must be
established. There are also rules for calculating with negative numbers.

The form Rcos(x-a)In this unit we explore how the sum of two trigonometric functions e.g.3 cos x plus 4 sin x, can be expressed as a single trigonometric function. Having the ability to do this enables us to solve trigonometric equations and find maximum and minimum values. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

Pythagoras' theoremPythagoras theorem - the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides - is well known. In this tutorial we revise the theorem and use it to solve problems in right-angled triangles. A less familiar form of the theorem is also considered. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)
