intgrate x dx from limits of 1 to 2

adomad · Apr 17, 2010

$\int_{1}^{2}x.dx = \left [\frac{x^2}{2} \right ]^2 _1 = 1.5$

Question:
$$find the real numbers A and B so that$ \frac{A}{1+i}+\frac{B}{1+2i} =1$

omgmynameislong · Apr 17, 2010

a(1+2i)+b(1+i)=(1+i)(1+2i)

a+b+i(2a+b)=-1+3i

a+b=-1
2a+b=3

a=4
b=-5

A and B complex or real ?

thats interesting. Can they be complex?

why is that induction a 4u question?

Because it's not a standard induction question. It's from the 1990 4U HSC Paper. It was in Q8 I believe.

ur supposed to post a new question now

lnx * (x^2)/2 - (x^2)/4

Find the general solutions of:

$cos4\theta+cos2\theta = \sqrt{2}cos^2\theta + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}sin2\theta$

any one?

Apparently not.

Trebla · Apr 19, 2010

Not completely confident but:

$\cos 4\theta + \cos 2\theta = \sqrt{2}\cos^2\theta +\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\sin 2\theta\\\\\cos (3\theta+\theta)+ \cos (3\theta-\theta) = \dfrac{2\cos^2\theta + \sin 2\theta}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\2\cos3\theta\cos\theta=\dfrac{2\cos^2\theta + 2\sin \theta\cos\theta}{\sqrt{2}}\\\\\cos\theta(\cos3\theta-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\cos\theta-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\sin\theta)=0\\\\\cos\theta(\cos3\theta-\cos\dfrac{\pi}{4}\cos\theta-\sin\dfrac{\pi}{4}\sin\theta)=0\\\\\cos\theta\left (\cos3\theta-\cos\left ( \theta-\frac{\pi}{4} \right ) \right )=0\\\\\cos\theta = 0 $ or $ \cos 3\theta=\cos \left( \theta-\frac{\pi}{4} \right )\\\\\therefore\theta = 2\pi n\pm\dfrac{\pi}{2} $ for integer $n$ when $\cos\theta = 0\\\\3\theta = 2k\pi\pm \left( \theta-\frac{\pi}{4} \right ) $ for integer $k$ when $\cos 3\theta=\cos \left( \theta-\frac{\pi}{4} \right )\\\\\Rightarrow 2\theta = 2k\pi- \dfrac{\pi}{4} $ or $4\theta = 2k\pi+ \dfrac{\pi}{4}\\\\$

$\therefore \theta = k\pi- \dfrac{\pi}{8} $ or $\theta = \dfrac{k\pi}{2}+ \dfrac{\pi}{16}$

That's correct. Good job!

Next question:

$\text{If } h(n)=n^4+6n^2+9 \\ \text{(i) Show that } h(n+2)-h(n)=8(n+1)(n^2+2n+5) \\ \text{(ii) Hence prove by mathematical induction that } h(n) \text{ is divisible by 8 if } n \text{ is an odd positive integer}$

Rezen · May 12, 2010

$h(n+2)-h(n)=(n+2)^4+6(n+2)^2+9-n^4-6n^2-9\\=[(n+2)^2-n^2][(n+2)^2+n^2]+6[(n+2)-n][(n+2)+n] \\=(4n+4)(2n^2+4n+4)+12(2n+2)\\=8(n+1)[(n^2+2n+2)+3]\\=8(n+1)(n^2+2n+5)$

Now that took alot of time. Too lazy to do the induction part, but its fairly simple.
