1. A curve has cartesian equation \(\left( x ^ { 2 } + y ^ { 2 } \right) ^ { 2 } = 3 x y ^ { 2 }\).
   1. Show that the polar equation of the curve is \(r = 3 \cos \theta \sin ^ { 2 } \theta\).
   2. Hence sketch the curve.
2. Find the exact value of \(\int _ { 0 } ^ { 1 } \frac { 1 } { \sqrt { 4 - 3 x ^ { 2 } } } \mathrm {~d} x\).
3. 1. Write down the series for \(\ln ( 1 + x )\) and the series for \(\ln ( 1 - x )\), both as far as the term in \(x ^ { 5 }\).
   2. Hence find the first three non-zero terms in the series for \(\ln \left( \frac { 1 + x } { 1 - x } \right)\).
   3. Use the series in part (ii) to show that \(\sum _ { r = 0 } ^ { \infty } \frac { 1 } { ( 2 r + 1 ) 4 ^ { r } } = \ln 3\).

2 You are given the complex numbers \(z = \sqrt { 32 } ( 1 + \mathrm { j } )\) and \(w = 8 \left( \cos \frac { 7 } { 12 } \pi + \mathrm { j } \sin \frac { 7 } { 12 } \pi \right)\).

1. Find the modulus and argument of each of the complex numbers \(z , z ^ { * } , z w\) and \(\frac { z } { w }\).
2. Express \(\frac { z } { w }\) in the form \(a + b \mathrm { j }\), giving the exact values of \(a\) and \(b\).
3. Find the cube roots of \(z\), in the form \(r \mathrm { e } ^ { \mathrm { j } \theta }\), where \(r > 0\) and \(- \pi < \theta \leqslant \pi\).
4. Show that the cube roots of \(z\) can be written as $$k _ { 1 } w ^ { * } , \quad k _ { 2 } z ^ { * } \quad \text { and } \quad k _ { 3 } \mathrm { j } w ,$$ where \(k _ { 1 } , k _ { 2 }\) and \(k _ { 3 }\) are real numbers. State the values of \(k _ { 1 } , k _ { 2 }\) and \(k _ { 3 }\).

1. Given the matrix \(\mathbf { Q } = \left( \begin{array} { r r r } 2 & - 1 & k
   1 & 0 & 1
   3 & 1 & 2 \end{array} \right)\) (where \(k \neq 3\) ), find \(\mathbf { Q } ^ { - 1 }\) in terms of \(k\).
   Show that, when \(k = 4 , \mathbf { Q } ^ { - 1 } = \left( \begin{array} { r r r } - 1 & 6 & - 1
   1 & - 8 & 2
   1 & - 5 & 1 \end{array} \right)\). The matrix \(\mathbf { M }\) has eigenvectors \(\left( \begin{array} { l } 2
   1
   3 \end{array} \right) , \left( \begin{array} { r } - 1
   0
   1 \end{array} \right)\) and \(\left( \begin{array} { l } 4
   1
   2 \end{array} \right)\), with corresponding eigenvalues \(1 , - 1\) and 3 respectively.
2. Write down a matrix \(\mathbf { P }\) and a diagonal matrix \(\mathbf { D }\) such that \(\mathbf { P } ^ { - 1 } \mathbf { M P } = \mathbf { D }\), and hence find the matrix \(\mathbf { M }\).
3. Write down the characteristic equation for \(\mathbf { M }\), and use the Cayley-Hamilton theorem to find integers \(a , b\) and \(c\) such that \(\mathbf { M } ^ { 4 } = a \mathbf { M } ^ { 2 } + b \mathbf { M } + c \mathbf { I }\). Section B (18 marks)

1. Starting from the definitions of \(\sinh x\) and \(\cosh x\) in terms of exponentials, prove that $$\cosh ^ { 2 } x - \sinh ^ { 2 } x = 1$$
2. Solve the equation \(4 \cosh ^ { 2 } x + 9 \sinh x = 13\), giving the answers in exact logarithmic form.
3. Show that there is only one stationary point on the curve $$y = 4 \cosh ^ { 2 } x + 9 \sinh x$$ and find the \(y\)-coordinate of the stationary point.
4. Show that \(\int _ { 0 } ^ { \ln 2 } \left( 4 \cosh ^ { 2 } x + 9 \sinh x \right) \mathrm { d } x = 2 \ln 2 + \frac { 33 } { 8 }\).

5 A curve has parametric equations \(x = \lambda \cos \theta - \frac { 1 } { \lambda } \sin \theta , y = \cos \theta + \sin \theta\), where \(\lambda\) is a positive constant.

1. Use your calculator to obtain a sketch of the curve in each of the cases $$\lambda = 0.5 , \quad \lambda = 3 \quad \text { and } \quad \lambda = 5 .$$
2. Given that the curve is a conic, name the type of conic.
3. Show that \(y\) has a maximum value of \(\sqrt { 2 }\) when \(\theta = \frac { 1 } { 4 } \pi\).
4. Show that \(x ^ { 2 } + y ^ { 2 } = \left( 1 + \lambda ^ { 2 } \right) + \left( \frac { 1 } { \lambda ^ { 2 } } - \lambda ^ { 2 } \right) \sin ^ { 2 } \theta\), and deduce that the distance from the origin of any point on the curve is between \(\sqrt { 1 + \frac { 1 } { \lambda ^ { 2 } } }\) and \(\sqrt { 1 + \lambda ^ { 2 } }\).
5. For the case \(\lambda = 1\), show that the curve is a circle, and find its radius.
6. For the case \(\lambda = 2\), draw a sketch of the curve, and label the points \(\mathrm { A } , \mathrm { B } , \mathrm { C } , \mathrm { D } , \mathrm { E } , \mathrm { F } , \mathrm { G } , \mathrm { H }\) on the curve corresponding to \(\theta = 0 , \frac { 1 } { 4 } \pi , \frac { 1 } { 2 } \pi , \frac { 3 } { 4 } \pi , \pi , \frac { 5 } { 4 } \pi , \frac { 3 } { 2 } \pi , \frac { 7 } { 4 } \pi\) respectively.
