I did not work out the first part of the problem, you can try to prove/show
it on your own. Here is a clue for those who are unsure on how to do,use
change \((x\sqrt {{x^2} + 4} )\) to \(x{({x^2} + 4)^{\frac{1}{2}}}\)
and use product rule to differentiate.

In the second part of the problem, the first step is to integrate both sides
of the equation, do note that when you integrate \(\frac{d}{{dx}}(x\sqrt {{x^2} + 4} )\)
you will get \((x\sqrt {{x^2} + 4} )\) as differentiation and integration
cancels out each other since they are the opposite of each other. You
have to use the answer in part one to integrate part two since there is
no formula to integrate an algebric fraction like the one above, unlike
differentiation where we can use the quotient rule.

I created this Blog after my students told me that there is very little information about how to solve GCE O Level Math and Additional Math (A-Math) questions on the internet. Even if they manage to find, the solution were for very basic questions. I am a Full-time Math Tutor in Singapore. I tutor mainly in Northern Singapore (Woodlands, Chua Chu Kang, Bukit Panjang, Yishun and Sembawang). I also tutor in Johor Bahru.
