Secondary 4 Additional Mathematics Quiz - Graphs Coordinate Geometry (Answer Key)

Section A

Midpoint $= (\frac{-2+4}{2}, \frac{5-1}{2}) = (1, 2)$ . [2m]
$d = \sqrt{(-1-3)^2 + (2-(-4))^2} = \sqrt{(-4)^2 + 6^2} = \sqrt{16+36} = \sqrt{52} = 2\sqrt{13}$ . [2m]
$m = \frac{8-2}{3-1} = 3$ . Equation: $y - 2 = 3(x - 1) \implies y = 3x - 1 \implies 3x - y - 1 = 0$ . [3m]
$L_1$ gradient $= 3/2$ . $L_2$ gradient $= -2/3$ . $y - (-1) = -\frac{2}{3}(x - 6) \implies 3y + 3 = -2x + 12 \implies 2x + 3y - 9 = 0$ . [3m]
Gradient $RS = \frac{5-3}{2-k} = \frac{2}{2-k}$ . Gradient $ST = \frac{1-5}{4-2} = -2$ . $\frac{2}{2-k} = -2 \implies 2 = -4 + 2k \implies 2k = 6 \implies k = 3$ . [3m]
Midpoint $MN = (1, 4)$ . Gradient $MN = \frac{6-2}{5-(-3)} = \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2}$ . Perpendicular gradient $= -2$ . $y - 4 = -2(x - 1) \implies y = -2x + 6$ or $2x + y - 6 = 0$ . [4m]
Area $= \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 6 = 12$ units $^2$ . [3m]

Section B

Centre: $(-4, 7)$ , Radius: $\sqrt{36} = 6$ . [2m]
$(x^2 - 6x + 9) + (y^2 + 8y + 16) = -9 + 9 + 16 \implies (x-3)^2 + (y+4)^2 = 16$ . [3m]
$r^2 = (5-2)^2 + (1-(-3))^2 = 3^2 + 4^2 = 25$ . Equation: $(x-2)^2 + (y+3)^2 = 25$ . [3m]
$x^2 + (x+1)^2 = 25 \implies x^2 + x^2 + 2x + 1 = 25 \implies 2x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0 \implies x^2 + x - 12 = 0$ . $(x+4)(x-3) = 0 \implies x = -4, 3$ . Points: $(-4, -3)$ and $(3, 4)$ . [4m]
Centre $= (\frac{-1+3}{2}, \frac{2+4}{2}) = (1, 3)$ . $r^2 = (3-1)^2 + (4-3)^2 = 2^2 + 1^2 = 5$ . Equation: $(x-1)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 5$ . [4m]
Centre must be $(4, 3)$ or $(4, -3)$ . Equations: $(x-4)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 9$ and $(x-4)^2 + (y+3)^2 = 9$ . [4m]
Centre $C(2, 1)$ . Gradient $C(4, 2) = \frac{2-1}{4-2} = \frac{1}{2}$ . Tangent gradient $= -2$ . $y - 2 = -2(x - 4) \implies y = -2x + 10$ or $2x + y - 10 = 0$ . [5m]

Section C

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 2x - 6$ . Set $2x - 6 = 0 \implies x = 3$ . $y = 3^2 - 6(3) + 11 = 2$ . $\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = 2 > 0 \implies$ Minimum. Point: $(3, 2)$ . [4m]
$\frac{dy}{dx} = 6x^2 - 6x - 12$ . Set $6(x^2 - x - 2) = 0 \implies (x-2)(x+1) = 0 \implies x = 2, -1$ . If $x=2, y = 16 - 12 - 24 + 5 = -15$ . If $x=-1, y = -2 - 3 + 12 + 5 = 12$ . Points: $(2, -15)$ and $(-1, 12)$ . [5m]
(a) $\log y = \log(ax^n) = \log a + \log x^n = \log a + n \log x$ . [2m] (b) $n = \text{gradient} = 2.5$ . $\log a = 0.3 \implies a = 10^{0.3} \approx 1.995$ . [3m]
(a) $\log P = \log k + m \log T$ . [2m] (b) $\log 100 = \log k + m \log 10 \implies 2 = \log k + m$ . $\log 400 = \log k + m \log 20 \implies 2.602 = \log k + m(1.301)$ . Subtracting: $0.602 = 0.301m \implies m = 2$ . $2 = \log k + 2 \implies \log k = 0 \implies k = 1$ . [3m]
Centre $C_1(1, 2)$ . Point of contact $P(3, 2)$ . Since $C_2$ touches externally, centre $C_2$ is on the line $C_1P$ extended. Distance $C_1P = 2$ . Radius $C_2 = 1$ . Centre $C_2 = (3+1, 2) = (4, 2)$ . Equation: $(x-4)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 1$ . [5m]
(a) Gradient $PQ = \frac{2-1}{5-1} = \frac{1}{4}$ . Gradient $SR = \frac{5-4}{4-0} = \frac{1}{4}$ . Since gradients are equal, $PQ \parallel SR$ . [3m] (b) Gradient $PS = \frac{4-1}{0-1} = -3$ . $PQ \perp PS$ if $m_{PQ} \cdot m_{PS} = -1$ . $(\frac{1}{4})(-3) = -0.75 \neq -1$ . Not a rectangle (no right angles). [4m]
