STPM PBS Assignment

STPM 2016 Mathematics (T) Term 2 Assignment

By KK LEE

February 25, 2016

Introduction

The concept of a limit plays a central role in calculus. For example, continuity, derivative and integral require this concept. In this assignment, you are required to explore the concept of a limit.

Sample Question

Question 1

(a) Draw an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle of radius $x$ cm. Express the area of the triangle $A_3$ in term of $x$ .

(b) Repeat 1(a) with square, regular pentagon, regular hexagon, …, regular polygon with n sides in the circle of radius $x$ cm.

(c) Determine the value of $\frac{A_n}{x^2}$ correct to three decimal places when $n$ is large.

Question 2

A function $f_k$ is defined by $f_k(x) =(1+kx)^{\frac{1}{x}}$ .

(a)(i) Tabulate the values $x$ and $f_1(x)$ when x equals to 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, …. Deduce value of $\lim_{x\to 0} f_1(x)$ .

(a)(ii) Tabulate the values $x$ and $f_k(x)$ for $k = 2$ , 3 and 4, when $x$ equals to 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, …. Deduce value of $\lim_{x\to 0}f_k(x)$ .

(b) Show that $\lim_{x\to\infty} \left(1+\frac{k}{x}\right)^x=\lim_{x\to 0}(1+kx)^\frac{1}{x}$ .

Question 3

A function g is defined by $g(t) = \int_1^t \frac{1}{x(x+1)}dx$ , where $t>1$ .

(a) Suppose $t$ is an integer, estimate $g(t)$ using the trapezium rule with

(i) $t-1$ strips,

(ii) $2(t-1)$ strips,

(iii) $4(t-1)$ strips.

In each case, express $g(t)$ in terms of $t$ and determine $\lim_{t\to\infty} g(t)$.

(b) Suppose $t$ is a real number, find $g(t)$ using integration and determine $\lim_{t\to\infty} g(t)$.

(c) Comment on your findings.
