| Topic | Complex numbers 2 |
| Type | Loci of complex numbers |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 This is a multi-part question covering standard Further Pure techniques (implicit differentiation for arctan derivative, completing the square for integration, integration by parts, and polar-to-Cartesian conversions). Each part follows textbook methods with no novel insight required. While it spans multiple topics and requires careful execution, all techniques are routine for FP2 students, making it slightly easier than average A-level difficulty. |

\begin{enumerate}[label=(\alph*)]
\item \begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\item Differentiate with respect to $x$ the equation $a \tan y = x$ (where $a$ is a constant), and hence show that the derivative of $\arctan \frac { x } { a }$ is $\frac { a } { a ^ { 2 } + x ^ { 2 } }$.
\item By first expressing $x ^ { 2 } - 4 x + 8$ in completed square form, evaluate the integral $\int _ { 0 } ^ { 4 } \frac { 1 } { x ^ { 2 } - 4 x + 8 } \mathrm {~d} x$, giving your answer exactly.
\item Use integration by parts to find $\int \arctan x \mathrm {~d} x$.
\end{enumerate}\item \begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\item A curve has polar equation $r = 2 \cos \theta$, for $- \frac { 1 } { 2 } \pi \leqslant \theta \leqslant \frac { 1 } { 2 } \pi$. Show, by considering its cartesian equation, that the curve is a circle. State the centre and radius of the circle.
\item Another circle has radius 2 and its centre, in cartesian coordinates, is ( 0,2 ). Find the polar equation of this circle.
