1 The roots of the cubic equation $x^3 + 2x^2 - 3 = 0$ are $\alpha, \beta$ and $\gamma$.
(i) By using the substitution $y = \frac{1}{x^2}$, find the cubic equation with roots $\frac{1}{\alpha^2}, \frac{1}{\beta^2}$ and $\frac{1}{\gamma^2}$. [3]
(ii) Hence find the value of $\frac{1}{\alpha^2} + \frac{1}{\beta^2} + \frac{1}{\gamma^2}$. [1]
(iii) Find also the value of $\frac{1}{\alpha^2\beta^2} + \frac{1}{\beta^2\gamma^2} + \frac{1}{\gamma^2\alpha^2}$. [1]2 (i) Verify that $\frac{2r+1}{r(r+1)(r+2)} = \frac{1}{2} \left\{ \frac{(2r+1)(2r+3)}{(r+1)(r+2)} - \frac{(2r-1)(2r+1)}{r(r+1)} \right\}$. [2]
(ii) Hence show that $\sum_{r=1}^{n} \frac{2r+1}{r(r+1)(r+2)} = \frac{1}{2} \left\{ \frac{(2n+1)(2n+3)}{(n+1)(n+2)} - \frac{3}{2} \right\}$. [2]
(iii) Deduce the value of $\sum_{r=1}^{\infty} \frac{2r+1}{r(r+1)(r+2)}$. [2]3 Prove, by mathematical induction, that $\sum_{r=1}^{n} r \ln\left(\frac{r+1}{r}\right) = \ln\left(\frac{(n+1)^n}{n!}\right)$ for all positive integers $n$. [6]4 A curve $C$ has equation $x^3 - 3xy + y^2 = 4$. Find the value of $\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}$ at the point (0, 2) of $C$. [7]5 A curve $C$ has parametric equations
$$x = \frac{2}{5}t^{\frac{5}{2}} - 2t^{\frac{1}{2}}, \quad y = \frac{4}{3}t^{\frac{3}{2}}, \quad \text{for } 1 \leq t \leq 4.$$
(i) Find the exact value of the arc length of $C$. [5](ii) Find also the exact value of the surface area generated when $C$ is rotated through $2\pi$ radians about the $x$-axis. [3]
6 Let $I_n$ denote $\int_0^2 (4+x^2)^{-n} \, dx$.
(i) Find $\frac{d}{dx}\left(x(4+x^2)^{-n}\right)$ and hence show that
$$8nI_{n+1} = (2n-1)I_n + 2 \times 8^{-n}.$$ [5](ii) Use the result for integrating $\frac{1}{x^2 + a^2}$ with respect to $x$, in the List of Formulae (MF10), to find the value of $I_1$ and deduce that
$$I_3 = \frac{3}{1024}\pi + \frac{1}{128}.$$
[5]7 (i) Use de Moivre’s theorem to prove that
$$\tan 4\theta = \frac{4\tan\theta - 4\tan^3\theta}{1 - 6\tan^2\theta + \tan^4\theta}.$$ [5](ii) Hence find the solutions of the equation $$t^4 - 4t^3 - 6t^2 + 4t + 1 = 0,$$ giving your answers in the form $\tan k\pi$, where $k$ is a rational number. [5]
8 Find the solution of the differential equation
$$\frac{d^2x}{dr^2} + 6 \frac{dx}{dt} + 9x = 18t^2 + 6t + 1,$$
given that, when $t = 0, x = 3$ and $\frac{dx}{dt} = 0$. [10]13 © UCLES 2017 9231/13/MJJ/17 [Turn over]
