The parallelogram with a and b as the adjacent sides must be a rhombus. | a b| is the area of a rhombus formed by the vectors a and b. OR | a b| is the area of the rhombus OAQB. Question 4 [9 Marks] 21cos xy --- (1) 2 1 1 1cos2d d x xx y --- (2) Squaring both sides, we get 2 212 1 cos4 d d x x x y yx yx 4d d)1( 2 2 .

5 Method 1 (Algebraic approach): 160 – 120(0.8)n > 140 (0.8)n < 6 1 n > )8.0ln( )ln(6 1 n > 8.0296… least value of n is 9. At the end of the 9 th day, amount of water is more than 140 cm3. So, the day when overflowing happens is the 10th day. Method 2 (Graphical approach): 160 – 120(0.8)n > 140 20 – 120(0.8)n > 0 Plot the graph y = 20 – 120(0.8)n From the graph, n > 8.0296… least value of n is 9. So, the day when overflowing happens is the 10th day. iv As n , (0.8)n 0 160 – 120(0.8)n 160 Amount of water at the end of any day will not exceed 160cm3, so the minimum capacity of the glass to b e used is (160+40)cm3 = 200cm3.
6 Question 6 [10 marks] (i) 2f : 2 3, 1.x x x x A horizontal line y = k where 40 k cuts the graph of y = f(x) twice, thus f is not one-to-one. Therefore f −1 does not exist. Quoting a specific line eg 3y is acceptable. (ii) For f −1 to exist, largest domain is ( , 1].
