please explain question 3 part (ii)
Click to expand...
AB = OB - OA
AB = -3i +6j +2k
Lets name the req vector PQ,
PQ = x(-3i + 6j +2k) ------------1

|PQ| = √(-3x)^2 + (6x)^2 + (2)^2
Acc to the question,
√9x^2 + 36x^2 + 4x^2 = 28
9x^2 +36x^2 + 4x^2 = 784
49x^2 = 784
x^2 = 784/49
x^2 = 16
x = ±4
Since the directions are same, x cannot be negative.
Put this value in equation 1 and you will get PQ = -12i + 24j +8k

Q10, part ii and iv? :S hate functions from my heart!! :mad:

From part i, you have f(x)=2(x-3)^2 - 5
ii) The coordinates of the vertex are (3,-5) from which we can deduce that x=3 is the line of symmetry. We actually divided the curve into two parts with this line. To get the other half back, we multiply it by 2. A bit difficult to explain but I hope you got it. :rolleyes:
iv) What happens when you split a curve at the turning point? It becomes a one-to-one function.

Correct me if im wrong plz :
fx has a domain of x>a
gx has a domain of x>b
therefore the domain of gfx will be x>a.
