UCLES 2008[Turn over*6986198037* the inequality|x 3|>|2x|.[4]2 The polynomial 2x3 x2+ax 6, whereais a constant, is denoted by p(x). It is given that(x+2)isafactorofp(x).(i)Find the value ofa.[2](ii)Whenahasthisvalue,factorisep( x)completely.[3]3xlny( , )(0, )OThe variablesxandysatisfy the equationy=A(b x),whereAandbare constants. The graph of lnyagainstxis a straight line passing through the points(0, )and( , ), as shown in the the values ofAandb, correct to 2 decimal places.[5]4(i)Show that the equationsin(x+30 )=2cos(x+60 )can be written in the form(3 3)sinx=cosx.[3](ii)Hence solve the equationsin(x+30 )=2cos(x+60 ),for 180 x 180.]

Give the result of each iteration to 4 decimal places.[3]8(i)(a)Prove the identitysec2x+secxtanx 1+sinxcos2x.(b)Hence prove thatsec2x+secxtanx 11 sinx.[3](ii)By differentiating1cosx,showthatify=secxthe ndydx=secxtanx.[3](iii)Using the results of parts(i)and(ii),findtheexactvalueof 14 011 sinxdx.
