Problem
Figure 5 shows a sketch of part of the curve C with equation
y=sin(12x),
where x is measured in radians. The point M shown in Figure 5 is a minimum point on C.
Figure 5
(a) State the period of C.
(1)
(b) State the coordinates of M.
(1)
The smallest positive solution of the equation sin(12x)=k, where k is a constant, is α.
Find, in terms of α,
(c) (i) the negative solution of the equation sin(12x)=k that is closest to zero,
(ii) the smallest positive solution of the equation cos(12x)=k.
(2)
解答
(a)
解法一
思路
展开
sinu 的周期是 2π。这里 u=12x,所以 x 的周期要放大 12 倍。

12x has period 2π,
so
x has period 24π.

正弦函数的最小值是 −1,第一次在角度 23π 出现。令 12x=23π。

At the first minimum,
12x=23π.
Thus
x=18π.
Therefore
M=(18π,−1).
(c)

同一个正弦值在一个周期内有对称解。若最小正解是 α,那么离 0 最近的负解要往左跨半个周期再多 α。余弦图像相当于正弦图像向左平移四分之一个周期。

The period is 24π, so half a period is 12π and a quarter period is 6π.
The negative solution closest to zero is
−12π−α.
For the cosine equation, the smallest positive solution is
6π−α.
