Solution:
So perimeter = 2.5 + 2.5 + 140 = 145
d) Area of triangle ABM = ½ absinC
= ½ x 5 x 2.5 x sin28 = 2.93
So shaded area = area of sector – area of triangle
= 350 – 2.93 = 347.07
28°

28°
CORRECT SOLUTION
a)
b) Area of sector =
c) AM = MC = 2.5 m
Using cosine rule,
BM² = 5² + 2.5² - 2 x 5 x 2.5 x cos28°
BM = 3.03 m (3.s.f)
So perimeter = BM + MC + BC = 3.03 + 2.5 + 2.44 = 7.97 m (3.s.f)
d)
Area of triangle ABM = ½absinC = ½ x 5 x 2.5 x sin28°
= 2.93 m² (3.s.f)
Area of shaded region = area of sector – area of triangle
= 6.11 – 2.93 = 3.18 m² (3.s.f.)
Arc length =

Solution:
So = 1 +
Therefore LHS = 1 + + = 1 + 2
b) 1 + 2tan²x = 3
2tan²x = 2
tan²x = 1
So tanx = 1
x = 45°
Question:

CORRECT SOLUTION
a)
b)
If tanx = 1, x = 45°, 225°
If tanx = -1, x = 135°, 315°

Solution:
a)
b) Max points occur where dy/dx =0
Using chain rule,
Smallest positive value of x is 0.983 (3.d.p)
c) Divide by cosx,
2tanx - 3 = 1
2tanx = 4
tanx = 2
x = 1.107, 4.249 (3.d.p)
Question:

CORRECT SOLUTION
a)
Hence 2sinx – 3cosx =
b) The greatest value of = 1
Hence the greatest value of =
This maximum occurs when
Therefore,
c) = 1
