3 [Turn over Mathematical Formulae 1. ALGEBRA Quadratic Equation For the quadratic equation ax 2 + bx + c = 0, Binomial expansion , where n is a positive integer and 2. TRIGONOMETRY Identities Formulae for ∆ABC
4 1 Given that , find the value of . [4] = 0.322 (3SF) 2 An equilateral triangle has a perimeter of cm. Find the area of the triangle, in , in the form , where a and b are constants. [4] Method 1: Method 2: Length of one side = Area = Area = Area = Height = (Pythagoras Theorem) Height = Height = Height = Height = Area = Area = Area = Area = Area =
5 [Turn over 3 The equation of a curve intersects the line at two points. Find the set of values of k. [4] 4 It is given that f(x) is defined for x > 1 and is such that . By considering , explain whether is an increasing or decreasing function. [4] Given x > 1, 4x < 0, 🡪 Since , f’(x) is a decreasing function. + + 3 5 k
6 5 (a) On the same diagram, sketch the graphs of and . [3] (b) Find the coordinates of the point of intersection of and . [2] Coordinates =
7 [Turn over 6 A, B and C are the angles of a triangle. (a) Show that cos C = cos (A + B) [2] In a triangle, A + B + C = 180 🡪 A + B = 180 C cos (A + B) = cos (180 C) cos (A + B) = cos 180cos C sin180sin C cos (A + B) = ( 1) cos C (0) sin C cos (A + B) = cos C therefore
