(iii) Find the position vector of the point \(C\) on \(l _ { 2 }\) such that \(\angle A B C = 90 ^ { \circ }\).
8. \(f ( x ) = \frac { 5 - 8 x } { ( 1 + 2 x ) ( 1 - x ) ^ { 2 } }\).
(i) Express \(\mathrm { f } ( x )\) in partial fractions.
(ii) Find the series expansion of \(\mathrm { f } ( x )\) in ascending powers of \(x\) up to and including the term in \(x ^ { 3 }\), simplifying each coefficient.
(iii) State the set of values of \(x\) for which your expansion is valid.
