9 You are given the matrix \(\mathbf { M } = \left( \begin{array} { r r } 0.8 & 0.6 \\ 0.6 & - 0.8 \end{array} \right)\).
  1. Calculate \(\mathbf { M } ^ { 2 }\). You are now given that the matrix \(M\) represents a reflection in a line through the origin.
  2. Explain how your answer to part (i) relates to this information.
  3. By investigating the invariant points of the reflection, find the equation of the mirror line.
  4. Describe fully the transformation represented by the matrix \(\mathbf { P } = \left( \begin{array} { c c } 0.8 & - 0.6 \\ 0.6 & 0.8 \end{array} \right)\).
  5. A composite transformation is formed by the transformation represented by \(\mathbf { P }\) followed by the transformation represented by \(\mathbf { M }\). Find the single matrix that represents this composite transformation.
  6. The composite transformation described in part (v) is equivalent to a single reflection. What is the equation of the mirror line of this reflection? \section*{OXFORD CAMBRIDGE AND RSA EXAMINATIONS} \section*{Advanced Subsidiary General Certificate of Education Advanced General Certificate of Education} \section*{MEI STRUCTURED MATHEMATICS

  1. You are given that $$\frac { 2 } { r ( r + 1 ) ( r + 2 ) } = \frac { 1 } { r } - \frac { 2 } { r + 1 } + \frac { 1 } { r + 2 }$$ Use the method of differences to show that $$\sum _ { r = 1 } ^ { n } \frac { 2 } { r ( r + 1 ) ( r + 2 ) } = \frac { 1 } { 2 } - \frac { 1 } { ( n + 1 ) ( n + 2 ) }$$
  2. Hence find the sum of the infinite series $$\frac { 1 } { 1 \times 2 \times 3 } + \frac { 1 } { 2 \times 3 \times 4 } + \frac { 1 } { 3 \times 4 \times 5 } + \ldots$$ RECOGNISING ACHIEVEMENT \section*{OXFORD CAMBRIDGE AND RSA EXAMINATIONS} \section*{Advanced Subsidiary General Certificate of Education Advanced General Certificate of Education} \section*{MEI STRUCTURED MATHEMATICS} Further Concepts For Advanced Mathematics (FP1)
