解答
(a)
解法一
思路
展开
先清去复分母,展开后比较实部、虚部。消去 λ 时可交叉相乘,不必除以可能为零的含参式。
答题过程
展开
Multiplying by a+2i,
2+3ai==λ(2−i)(a+2i)λ[(2a+2)+(4−a)i].
Equating real and imaginary parts,
2=3a=λ(2a+2),λ(4−a).
Multiply the first equation by 4−a and the second by 2a+2. Their right sides are equal, giving
2(4−a)=3a(2a+2).
Thus
8−2a=3a2+4a−4=6a2+6a,0.
解法二
思路
展开
也可以先用共轭化实分母,再与 λ(2−i) 比较实部、虚部,消去 λ。
答题过程
展开
Multiplying by the conjugate,
a+2i2+3ai==a2+4(2+3ai)(a−2i)a2+48a+(3a2−4)i.
Equating this to 2λ−λi gives
a2+48a=a2+43a2−4=2λ,−λ.
The first equation plus twice the second gives
8a+2(3a2−4)=0.
Hence 3a2+4a−4=0.
(b)
解法一
思路
展开
分解(a)的二次式,再把每个 a 代回同一个实部方程求相应的 λ。
答题过程
展开
From part (a),
3a2+4a−4=(3a−2)(a+2)=0.
Thus a=2/3 or a=−2.
Using 2=λ(2a+2):
- If a=2/3, then 2=(10/3)λ, giving λ=3/5.
- If a=−2, then 2=−2λ, giving λ=−1.
Therefore the pairs are
(a,λ)=(32,53)or(−2,−1).
