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 cos C = cos (A + B) Given that A = 45 and B = 30. (b) Without using a calculator, find cos C in the form , where a and b are integers. [3]
8 7 The diagram shows a triangle PQR in which angle PRQ = radians, angle PQR is a right angle, M is the midpoint of QR and the length of PQ = 12 m. Without using a calculator, find the value of the integer k such that . [5] Pythagoras Theorem: 1 P Q R M 12
9 [Turn over k = 21 8 A curve is such that . The curve passes through the point ( 1, 5) and at this point, the gradient of the curve is 3. (a) Find the x-coordinates of the stationary points of the curve. [4] At point ( 1, 5), gradient = 3 (b) Find the equation of the curve. [2] At point ( 1, 5),
10 9 Coffee is dripped at a constant rate of 2 into an empty cylindrical cup of radius 4 cm. The volume, V , of coffee in the cup is given by where x is the depth, in cm, of the coffee. Find (i) The time taken for the depth of the coffee to reach 3 cm, [3] x = 3, Time = Time = s (ii) The rate of change of the depth of the coffee at this time. [4] When , Rate of change =
