P(4,4√3) lies on y²=4ax, and PQ is a focal chord. M, N are feet of perpendiculars from P, Q to the directrix. Find the area of quadrilateral PQMN using the focal-chord parameter relation.
For A=[cosθ isinθ;isinθ cosθ] with θ=π/24 and A⁵=[a b;c d], determine which of four given statements about a,b,c,d is not true, by proving Aⁿ has the same cos(nθ)/isin(nθ) pattern.
Find the greatest value of √3|a+b|+|a−b| where a and b are unit vectors, by writing both magnitudes in terms of the half-angle between them.
Find the positive integer n satisfying 2·2²+3·2³+…+n·2ⁿ=2^(n+10), by summing the series via the standard shift-and-subtract technique for a sum of the form Σk·rᵏ.
The solution curve y=y(x) of dy/dx − 3x⁵tan⁻¹(x³)y/(1+x⁶)^(3/2) = 2x·exp[(x³−tan⁻¹x³)/√(1+x⁶)] passes through the origin. Find y(1).
For p>0, vector v2=2i+(p+1)j is obtained by rotating v1=√3pi+j by angle θ. Given tanθ=(α√3−2)/(4√3+3), find α using the rotation-preserves-length property.
A circle with radius r<8 has 3x+4y=24 and 3x−4y=32 as tangents and 4x+3y=1 as a normal. Find α−β+r using the tangent-distance formula and the fact that a normal passes through the centre.
Solve the differential equation cos x dy = y(sin x − y)dx for x in (0,π/2), by recognising it as a Bernoulli equation and substituting t=1/y.
