  1. The convergent sequence \(\left\{ \mathrm { a } _ { \mathrm { n } } \right\}\) is defined by \(a _ { 0 } = 1\) and \(\mathrm { a } _ { \mathrm { n } + 1 } = \sqrt { \mathrm { a } _ { \mathrm { n } } } + \frac { 4 } { \sqrt { \mathrm { a } _ { \mathrm { n } } } }\) for \(n \geqslant 0\). Calculate the limit of the sequence.

7 You are given the set \(S = \{ 1,5,7,11,13,17 \}\) together with \(\times _ { 18 }\), the operation of multiplication modulo 18.
  1. Complete the Cayley table for \(\left( S , \times _ { 18 } \right)\) given in the Printed Answer Booklet.
  2. Prove that ( \(S , \times _ { 18 }\) ) is a group. (You may assume that \(\times _ { 18 }\) is associative.)
  3. Write down the order of each element of the group.
  4. Show that \(\left( S , \times _ { 18 } \right)\) is a cyclic group.
    1. Give an example of a non-cyclic group of order 6 .
    2. Give one reason why your example is structurally different to \(\left( S , { } _ { 18 } \right)\).
Question 8

8 The motion of two remote controlled helicopters \(P\) and \(Q\) is modelled as two points moving along straight lines. Helicopter \(P\) moves on the line \(\mathbf { r } = \left( \begin{array} { r } 2 + 4 p
- 3 + p
1 + 3 p \end{array} \right)\) and helicopter \(Q\) moves on the line \(\mathbf { r } = \left( \begin{array} { l } 5 + 8 q
2 + q
5 + 4 q \end{array} \right)\).
The function \(z\) denotes \(( P Q ) ^ { 2 }\), the square of the distance between \(P\) and \(Q\).
  1. Show that \(z = 26 p ^ { 2 } + 81 q ^ { 2 } - 90 p q - 58 p + 90 q + 50\).
  2. Use partial differentiation to find the values of \(p\) and \(q\) for which \(z\) has a stationary point.
  3. With the aid of a diagram, explain why this stationary point must be a minimum point, rather than a maximum point or a saddle point.
  4. Hence find the shortest possible distance between the two helicopters. The model is now refined by modelling each helicopter as a sphere of radius 0.5 units.
  5. Explain how this will change your answer to part (d). \section*{END OF QUESTION PAPER}
