Part (ii) of both questions . . .
I know how to draw argand diagram , but cant figure out how to find K

For the complex no. question. 'k' is the radius. Thence, you need to find the centre of the circle, then calculate the distance between the centre and any one of the points given, i.e. w or w^2.

For the integration question:
You see from part (i) that A= Pi/4
Use cross-multiplication to find k as follows,
A -----> pi/4
40A ------> k Pi

=> k Pi = (40A*pi/4)/ A
A cancels out. k Pi = 10 Pi. Therefore k=10.

Hope that helps. :)

A particle moves with constant acceleration along a straight line passing through the points A, B and C with speeds 2m/s, 5m/s and 8m/s respectively.
Show that the ratio between the distances AB and BC is 7:13. ?

For question # 7iii) Given: u = 1 + 2i/1-3i
Taking argument on both sides we have; arg(u)=arg(1 + 2i/1-3i)
or,arg(u)=arg(1+2i)-arg(1-3i)
[From 7i: arg(u)=tan-1(-.5/.5)--->3pi/4] or, 3pi/4=tan-1(2)-tan-1(-3)
Therefore, 3pi/4=tan-1(2)+tan-1(3) shown :)
How about no 10.iii
