把 tanx 换成 cosxsinx,再用 sin2x=1−cos2x,就能得到关于 cosx 的二次方程。
答题过程
展开
Since
tanx=cosxsinx,
the equation becomes
sinx⋅cosxsinx=cosxsin2x=sin2x=555cosx.
Using sin2x=1−cos2x,
1−cos2x=cos2x+5cosx−1=5cosx0.
Solve this quadratic in cosx:
cosx==2−5±52−4(1)(−1)2−5±29.
The value 2−5−29 is less than −1, so it is not possible for cosx.
Thus
cosx=2−5+29.
For 0≤x<360∘,
x=78.9∘, 281.1∘.

曲线的中线是 y=2。最高点 P 的 y 坐标是 7,所以振幅是 7−2=5。

The midline is
y=2.
Since the maximum value is 7,
A=7−2=5.
(ii)(b)

Q 是低点,所以 sin 部分等于 −1。低点的 y 坐标是 2−5=−3。
答题过程
展开
At Q, the sine term is at its minimum:
sin(2θ−83π)=−1.
So
2θ−83π=23π.
Hence
2θ===θ=23π+83π812π+83π815π1615π.
The y coordinate is
2−5=−3.
Therefore,
Q(1615π,−3).
(ii)(c)

思路

R 在 x-axis 上,所以令 y=0。从图像看,R 是右边那个截距,所以最后要选对应的较大 θ。
答题过程
展开
At R, y=0. Since A=5,
5sin(2θ−83π)+2=sin(2θ−83π)=0−52.
From the position of R on the diagram, take the solution giving the shown intercept:
2θ−83π=9.8361…
So
2θ==θ=9.8361…+83π11.0142…5.5071…
Therefore, to 3 significant figures,
θ=5.51.
