Problem

(a) show that

d3ydx3=8tanxsec2x(psec2x+q)\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^3y}{\mathrm{d}x^3} = 8\tan x \sec^2 x (p \sec^2 x + q) \end{align*}

where pp and qq are integers to be determined.

(5)

(b) Hence determine the Taylor series expansion about π3\frac{\pi}{3} of tan2x\tan^2 x in ascending powers of (xπ3)\left( x - \frac{\pi}{3} \right) up to and including the term in (xπ3)3\left( x - \frac{\pi}{3} \right)^3, giving each coefficient in simplest form.

(a)

解法一

思路

展开

先求一阶、二阶、三阶导数。二阶导数可以先写成含 tanx\tan xsecx\sec x 的形式,三阶导数再整理成题目要求的

8tanxsec2x(psec2x+q).\begin{align*} 8\tan x\sec^2x(p\sec^2x+q). \end{align*}

答题过程

展开

Given

y=tan2x.\begin{align*} y=\tan^2x. \end{align*}

Differentiate:

dydx=2tanxsec2x.\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} =&\,2\tan x\sec^2x. \end{align*}

Differentiate again using the product rule:

d2ydx2=2sec2xsec2x+2tanx(2sec2xtanx)=2sec4x+4sec2xtan2x.\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^2y}{\mathrm{d}x^2} =&\,2\sec^2x\sec^2x +2\tan x\left(2\sec^2x\tan x\right)\\[2mm] =&\,2\sec^4x+4\sec^2x\tan^2x. \end{align*}

Now differentiate once more:

d3ydx3=2(4sec4xtanx)+4[(2sec2xtanx)tan2x+sec2x(2tanxsec2x)]=8sec4xtanx+8sec2xtan3x+8sec4xtanx.\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^3y}{\mathrm{d}x^3} =&\,2\left(4\sec^4x\tan x\right)\\[2mm] &\,\hspace{2pt}+4\left[ \left(2\sec^2x\tan x\right)\tan^2x +\sec^2x\left(2\tan x\sec^2x\right) \right]\\[2mm] =&\,8\sec^4x\tan x +8\sec^2x\tan^3x\\[2mm] &\,\hspace{2pt}+8\sec^4x\tan x. \end{align*}

So

d3ydx3=16sec4xtanx+8sec2xtan3x.\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^3y}{\mathrm{d}x^3} =&\,16\sec^4x\tan x +8\sec^2x\tan^3x. \end{align*}

Use

tan2x=sec2x1.\begin{align*} \tan^2x=\sec^2x-1. \end{align*}

Then

8sec2xtan3x=8sec2xtanx(sec2x1).\begin{align*} 8\sec^2x\tan^3x =&\,8\sec^2x\tan x(\sec^2x-1). \end{align*}

Therefore

d3ydx3=16sec4xtanx+8sec2xtanx(sec2x1)=24sec4xtanx8sec2xtanx=8tanxsec2x(3sec2x1).\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^3y}{\mathrm{d}x^3} =&\,16\sec^4x\tan x +8\sec^2x\tan x(\sec^2x-1)\\[2mm] =&\,24\sec^4x\tan x -8\sec^2x\tan x\\[2mm] =&\,8\tan x\sec^2x(3\sec^2x-1). \end{align*}

Hence

p=3,q=1.\begin{align*} p=3,\qquad q=-1. \end{align*}

解法二

思路

展开

二阶导数也可以先用 tan2x=sec2x1\tan^2x=\sec^2x-1 化成只含 secx\sec x 的形式:

d2ydx2=6sec4x4sec2x.\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^2y}{\mathrm{d}x^2} =6\sec^4x-4\sec^2x. \end{align*}

这样求三阶导数会更短。

答题过程

展开

From

y=tan2x,\begin{align*} y=\tan^2x, \end{align*}

we get

dydx=2tanxsec2x.\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} =&\,2\tan x\sec^2x. \end{align*}

Then

d2ydx2=2sec4x+4sec2xtan2x.\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^2y}{\mathrm{d}x^2} =&\,2\sec^4x+4\sec^2x\tan^2x. \end{align*}

Use tan2x=sec2x1\tan^2x=\sec^2x-1:

d2ydx2=2sec4x+4sec2x(sec2x1)=6sec4x4sec2x.\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^2y}{\mathrm{d}x^2} =&\,2\sec^4x +4\sec^2x(\sec^2x-1)\\[2mm] =&\,6\sec^4x-4\sec^2x. \end{align*}

Differentiate this:

d3ydx3=6(4sec4xtanx)4(2sec2xtanx)=24sec4xtanx8sec2xtanx=8tanxsec2x(3sec2x1).\begin{align*} \frac{\mathrm{d}^3y}{\mathrm{d}x^3} =&\,6\left(4\sec^4x\tan x\right) -4\left(2\sec^2x\tan x\right)\\[2mm] =&\,24\sec^4x\tan x -8\sec^2x\tan x\\[2mm] =&\,8\tan x\sec^2x(3\sec^2x-1). \end{align*}

Therefore

p=3,q=1.\begin{align*} p=3,\qquad q=-1. \end{align*}

解法一

思路

展开

Taylor series about x=π3x=\dfrac{\pi}{3} 需要

y,y,y,y\begin{align*} y,\quad y',\quad y'',\quad y''' \end{align*}

x=π3x=\dfrac{\pi}{3} 的值。这里

tanπ3=3,sec2π3=4.\begin{align*} \tan\frac{\pi}{3}=\sqrt3, \qquad \sec^2\frac{\pi}{3}=4. \end{align*}

答题过程

展开

At

x=π3,\begin{align*} x=\frac{\pi}{3}, \end{align*}

we have

tanx=3,sec2x=4.\begin{align*} \tan x=\sqrt3, \qquad \sec^2x=4. \end{align*}

So

y=tan2x=3.\begin{align*} y =&\,\tan^2x=3. \end{align*}

Also

y=2tanxsec2x=2(3)(4)=83.\begin{align*} y' =&\,2\tan x\sec^2x\\[2mm] =&\,2(\sqrt3)(4)\\[2mm] =&\,8\sqrt3. \end{align*}

From part (a),

y=8tanxsec2x(3sec2x1).\begin{align*} y''' =&\,8\tan x\sec^2x(3\sec^2x-1). \end{align*}

At x=π3x=\dfrac{\pi}{3},

y=8(3)(4)(341)=3523.\begin{align*} y''' =&\,8(\sqrt3)(4)(3\cdot4-1)\\[2mm] =&\,352\sqrt3. \end{align*}

We also need yy''. From part (a),

y=6sec4x4sec2x.\begin{align*} y'' =&\,6\sec^4x-4\sec^2x. \end{align*}

Therefore

y=6(42)4(4)=9616=80.\begin{align*} y'' =&\,6(4^2)-4(4)\\[2mm] =&\,96-16\\[2mm] =&\,80. \end{align*}

The Taylor series is

y=y0+y0(xπ3)+y02!(xπ3)2+y03!(xπ3)3+.\begin{align*} y =&\,y_0+y_0'\left(x-\frac{\pi}{3}\right) +\frac{y_0''}{2!}\left(x-\frac{\pi}{3}\right)^2\\[2mm] &\,\hspace{2pt}+\frac{y_0'''}{3!} \left(x-\frac{\pi}{3}\right)^3+\cdots. \end{align*}

Hence

tan2x=3+83(xπ3)+40(xπ3)2+17633(xπ3)3+.\begin{align*} \tan^2x =&\,3+8\sqrt3\left(x-\frac{\pi}{3}\right) +40\left(x-\frac{\pi}{3}\right)^2\\[2mm] &\,\hspace{2pt}+\frac{176\sqrt3}{3} \left(x-\frac{\pi}{3}\right)^3+\cdots. \end{align*}
