Solutions to Exercise 1C 1
A + B + C = 180
B = (180 (73 + 55)) = 52
a
Applying the sine rule: 10
sin 55 = a
sin 73
BC = a = 10 sin 73
sin 55 11.67
BC is 11.67 cm, correct to two decimal places.
b
10sin 55
= bsin 52
AC = b = 10 sin 52
sin 55 9.62
AC is 9.62 cm, correct to two decimal places.
2
a
Applying the cosine rule:
AC2 = AB2 + BC2 2(AB)(BC) cos B
= 6.52 + 82 2(6.5)(8) cos 58
= 51.13839
AC = 7.15111
AC is 7.15 cm, correct to two decimal places.
b
Applying the sine rule: 65
sin C = AC
sin 58
C = sin1 (65 sin 58
AC)
= (50.42874)
or C = 180 sin1 (65 sin 58
AC)
= (129.57125)
Therefore BCA = 50.43, correct to two
decimal places. (A triangle with two angles
of 58 and 129.57 cannot be formed.)

ABC = 180 BAC

ABC is either 58.08 or 121.92, correct to
two decimal places.

If ABC = 58.08, then
BAC = (180 (58.08 + 34)) = 87.92
Applying the cosine rule:
BC2 = AB2 + AC2 2(AB)(AC) cos BAC

= 100.15472
BC = 10.00773
BC is 10.01 cm, correct to two decimal places.
If ABC = 121.92, then
BAC = (180 (121.92 + 34)) = 24.08
Applying the cosine rule:
BC2 = AB2 + AC2 2(AB)(AC) cos BAC
= 5.62 + 8.52 2(5.6)(8.5) cos 24.08

r = 2
Hence tn = a(2)n 1
As t3 = 4 then 4 = a(22)

The first term of the arithmetic sequence is
not known thus the following sequence
should be used. tn = tn 1 + d
If 5, x and y are in arithmetic sequence then
x = 5 + d 1
y = x + d 2
Rearranging 1 for d gives:
d = x 5 3

From the graph:
The centre occurs at (2, 0) Responses A, C and E are incorrect The vertices occur at (7 , 0) and (11 , 0)
Generally the vertices of a hyperbola occur
at ( a + h, k)
For response B: a = 3, h = 2 and k = 0 So the vertices are ( 3 + 2, 0) i.e. (1 , 0) and (5, 0) Response B is incorrect
For response D: a = 9, h = 2 and k = 0 So the vertices are ( 9 + 2, 0) i.e. (7 , 0) and (11 , 0) Thus response D is correct.

a AB 2
= 25 + 49 70 cos (115)
Therefore AB = 10.2 km, correct to two decimal places.
b Then using the sine rule, 7
sin =
AB
sin (115)
Therefore sin = 7 sin (115)
AB
which gives = 38.56...
and the bearing of B from A is given by 10 + 38.56...
The bearing is 049.
c
i The magnitude of angle BAP = (80 ( + 10)) = (31.43...)
Using the cosine in triangle APB gives
BP 2 = AB
2 + 4
2 8 AB cos (31.43...)
Therefore BP = 7.079...
The total distance travelled by the second hiker
= 4 + 7.079...
= 11.08 km, correct to two decimal places.
ii Use the cosine rule to find the size of angle APB.
cos P = AB
2 AP
2 PB

2 AP PB
and so the magnitude of angle APB is 131.42
The bearing is therefore given by 131.42 100
The bearing is 031.

In this diagram, AC = CB and the bearing of C from A is 80.
Triangle ACB is isosceles,
therefore cos (= AX

and AC = AX
cos (
AX = 1
2 AB
From the above, = 31.43 and AX = 5.088
Therefore AC = 5.963...
The total distance travelled = 11.93 km, correct to two decimal places.

a i The centre of the ellipse is (0, 3) and so the minor axis has endpoints
( 2 , 3) and ( 2 , 3). The domain is [ 2 , 2 ]

The range is [3 5 , 3 + 5 ]

b The centre of the ellipse has coordinates
3 + 1
2 1 + 5
2= (1, 2)
The major axis (parallel to y axis) has length 6 and the minor axis (parallel to
x axis) length 4.
Hence the equation of the ellipse is (x 1)

9 = 1 at the point
(1, 1) and another point.
Substituting, 9(x 1)2 + 4( x 4)
2 = 36
Expanding and simplifying gives
9(x2 2x + 1) + 4(x
2 8x + 16) = 36
and 13x2 50x + 37 = 0
(x 1) is a factor.
Therefore (x 1)(13x 37) = 0

The centre is at (a, a) and the radius is a.
Therefore the circle touches both axes at (0, a) and (a, 0).
