Question

(a)The diagram shows part of the graph of \(y=a+b\sin x\).Find the values of constant a and b.

(b)(i)Show that the equation \(\left ( \sin \Theta +2\cos \Theta \right )\left ( 1+\sin \Theta -\cos \Theta \right )=\sin \Theta \left ( 1+\cos \Theta \right )\)

may be expressed as \(3\cos ^{2}\Theta -2\cos \Theta -1=0\).

(iii)Hence solve the equation \(\left ( \sin \Theta +2\cos \Theta \right )\left ( 1+\sin \Theta-\cos \Theta \right )=\sin \Theta \left ( 1+\cos \Theta \right )\) for \(-180^{\circ}\leq \Theta \leq 180^{\circ}\)

Answer/Explanation

(i)a=-2,b=3

(b)(ii)\(s+s^{2}-sc+2c+2sc=s+sc\rightarrow s^{2}-2c^{2}+2c=0\)

\(1-\cos ^{2}\Theta -2\cos ^{2}\Theta +2\cos \Theta =0\)

\(3\cos ^{2}\Theta -2\cos \Theta -1=0\)

(ii)\(\cos \Theta =  1\)or \( -\frac{1}{3}\)

\(\Theta =0^{\circ}\) or \(109.5^{\circ}\) or \(-109.5^{\circ}\)

Question.

The function f is defined by \(f: x\rightarrow 4 sin x – 1\) for \(\frac{-\Pi}{2}\leq x\leq\frac{\Pi}{2}\).
(i) State the range of f.
(ii) Find the coordinates of the points at which the curve y = f(x) intersects the coordinate axes.
(iii) Sketch the graph of y = f(x).
(iv) Obtain an expression for \(f^{-1}(x)\) , stating both the domain and range of \(f^{-1}\).

Answer/Explanation

(i) \(f:x\rightarrow 4\sin x-1\)  for \(-\frac{\pi }{2}\leq x\leq \frac{\pi }{2}\)

Range \(-5\leq f(x)\leq 3\)

(ii) 4s-1=0→\(s=\frac{1}{4}\rightarrow x=0.253\)

\(x=0\rightarrow y=-1\)

(iv)range-\(\frac{1}{2}\pi \leq f^{-1}\left ( x \right )\leq\frac{1}{2}\pi \)

domain \(-5\leq x\leq 3\)

Inverse \(f^{-1}(x)=\sin ^{-1}\left ( \frac{x+1}{4} \right )\)

Question

(a) Solve the equation \(3sin^{2}2\Theta+8cos2\Theta =0\) for 0Å ≤ 1 ≤ 180Å.

(b)

The diagram shows part of the graph of y = a + tan bx, where x is measured in radians and a and
b are constants. The curve intersects the x-axis at \( (-\frac{\Pi }{ 6},0) \)and the y-axis at \((0,\sqrt{3}) \) Find the
values of a and b.

Answer/Explanation

(a)\(3(1-cos^{2}2\Theta)+8cos2\Theta =0\rightarrow 3cos^{2}2\Theta -8cos2\Theta -3(=0)\)

cos2θ\(=-\frac{1}{3}\)

2θ \(= 109.(47)o or 250.(53)o\)

θ = 54.7o or 125.3o

(b)
√3 tan0 3 = + a , a →=√3

0 tan( −bπ/ 6)  +√ 3 taken as far as  \(tan^{-1}\), angle units consistent

b=2
