View details
4 The function f is such that \(\mathrm { f } ( x ) = a + b \cos x\) for \(0 \leqslant x \leqslant 2 \pi\). It is given that \(\mathrm { f } \left( \frac { 1 } { 3 } \pi \right) = 5\) and \(\mathrm { f } ( \pi ) = 11\).
  1. Find the values of the constants \(a\) and \(b\).

  2. Find the set of values of \(k\) for which the equation \(\mathrm { f } ( x ) = k\) has no solution.

The base \(O A B\) is a horizontal triangle in which angle \(A O B\) is \(90 ^ { \circ }\). The side \(O B C D\) is a rectangle and the side \(O A D\) lies in a vertical plane. Unit vectors \(\mathbf { i }\) and \(\mathbf { j }\) are parallel to \(O A\) and \(O B\) respectively and the unit vector \(\mathbf { k }\) is vertical. The position vectors of \(A , B\) and \(D\) are given by \(\overrightarrow { O A } = 8 \mathbf { i } , \overrightarrow { O B } = 5 \mathbf { j }\) and \(\overrightarrow { O D } = 2 \mathbf { i } + 4 \mathbf { k }\).

The tangents to the circle at \(A\) and \(B\) meet at \(T\). The shaded region is bounded by the minor \(\operatorname { arc } A B\) and the lines \(A T\) and \(B T\). Angle \(A O B\) is \(2 \theta\) radians.
  1. In the case where the area of the sector \(A O B\) is the same as the area of the shaded region, show that \(\tan \theta = 2 \theta\).
  2. In the case where \(r = 8 \mathrm {~cm}\) and the length of the minor \(\operatorname { arc } A B\) is 19.2 cm , find the area of the shaded region.

  1. Show that the tangents to the curve at \(P\) and \(Q\) meet at a point on the line \(y = x\).
  2. Find, showing all necessary working, the volume obtained when the shaded region is rotated through \(360 ^ { \circ }\) about the \(x\)-axis. Give your answer in terms of \(\pi\).
