First time solving an A-Level maths exam! (90 minutes, uncut) @blackpenredpen

Uploaded April 2024 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

I will be doing a British A-Level further maths paper on the spot for the first time! This paper contains mainly algebra and calculus. Topics include complex numbers, hyperbolic equations, exponential equations, trigonometric identities and equations, first-order linear differential equations, determinant and the inverse of a 3x3 matrix, and more! Was I able to solve all the questions within 90 minutes? Was I able to get all the questions correct? Watch to find out.

$the first 5 days of calculus 2 but the integrals get harder! Learn more calculus on Brilliant (now with a 30-day free trial): 👉https://brilliant.org/blackpenredpen/ (20% off with this link!) Today we will see what your first 5 days in your calculus 2 or AP calculus BC class is like. Calculus 2 is known as integral calculus and we usually start with learning all the integration techniques. We will cover the integral of x^2 with the reverse power rule, the integral of x*e^(x^2) with u-substitution, the integral of x^2*e^x with integration by parts, the integration of sqrt(1+x^2) with trigonometric substitution, and the integration of (2x+1)/(x^2+3x+2) with partial fraction decomposition. 0:00 day 1, reverse power rule 0:20 day 2, u sub 1:27 day 3, integration by parts 2:29 day 4, trig sub 6:16 day 5, partial fraction decomposition 8:51 Check out Brilliant 🛍 Shop my math t-shirt & hoodies: amzn.to/3qBeuw6 💪 Support the channel and get featured in the video description by becoming a patron: https://www.patreon.com/blackpenredpen AP-IP Ben Delo Marcelo Silva Ehud Ezra 3blue1brown Joseph DeStefano Mark Mann Philippe Zivan Sussholz AlkanKondo89 Adam Quentin Colley Gary Tugan Stephen Stofka Alex Dodge Gary Huntress Alison Hansel Delton Ding Klemens Christopher Ursich buda Vincent Poirier Toma Kolev Tibees Bob Maxell A.B.C Cristian Navarro Jan Bormans Galios Theorist Robert Sundling Stuart Wurtman Nick S William OCorrigan Ron Jensen Patapom Daniel Kahn Lea Denise James Steven Ridgway Jason Bucata Mirko Schultz xeioex Jean-Manuel Izaret Jason Clement robert huff Julian Moik Hiu Fung Lam Ronald Bryant Jan Řehák Robert Toltowicz Angel Marchev, Jr. Antonio Luiz Brandao SquadriWilliam Laderer Natasha Caron Yevonnael Andrew Angel Marchev Sam Padilla ScienceBro Ryan Bingham Papa Fassi Hoang Nguyen Arun Iyengar Michael Miller Sandun Panthangi Skorj Olafsen Riley Faison Rolf Waefler Andrew Jack Ingham P Dwag Jason Kevin Davis Franco Tejero Klasseh Khornate Richard Payne Witek Mozga Brandon Smith Jan Lukas Kiermeyer Ralph Sato Kischel Nair Carsten Milkau Keith Kevelson Christoph Hipp Witness Forest Roberts Abd-alijaleel Laraki Anthony Bruent-Bessette Samuel Gronwold Tyler Bennett christopher careta Troy R Katy Lap C Niltiac, Stealer of Souls Jon Daivd R meh Tom Noa Overloop Jude Khine R3factor.
