Problem
Figure 1
In this question you must show all stages of your working.
Solutions relying entirely on calculator technology are not acceptable.
Figure 1 shows a sketch of part of the curve with polar equation
r=3+tan2θ0⩽θ<π
The tangent to the curve at the point P is parallel to the initial line.
(a) Using the identity tan2θ=sinθ1−cosθ or otherwise, determine the exact value of θ at P.
(4)
The region R, shown shaded in Figure 1, is bounded by the initial line, the curve and the line OP, where O is the pole.
(b) Use algebraic integration to determine the exact area of R, giving your answer in the form pln2+qπ+r where p, q and r are constants.

(a)

切线平行于 initial line,表示该点的切线是水平的,所以可令 dθdy=0。极坐标中 y=rsinθ,题目给的半角公式正好能把 y 化得很简单。

Since
y=rsinθ,
we have
y===(3+tan2θ)sinθ(3+sinθ1−cosθ)sinθ3sinθ+1−cosθ
Differentiate:
dθdy=3cosθ+sinθ
The tangent at P is parallel to the initial line, so
3cosθ+sinθ=sinθ=tanθ=0−3cosθ−3
Since 0⩽θ<π, the solution is in the second quadrant. Hence
θ=32π

区域由 initial line、曲线和 OP 围成,所以面积是
21∫02π/3r2dθ
关键是把 tan22θ 改成 sec22θ−1,这样就能直接积分。

The required area is
Area=21∫02π/3(3+tan2θ)2dθ
Expand the integrand:
(3+tan2θ)2===3+23tan2θ+tan22θ3+23tan2θ+sec22θ−12+23tan2θ+sec22θ
Therefore
Area=21∫02π/3(2+23tan2θ+sec22θ)dθ
Integrate:
∫(2+23tan2θ+sec22θ)dθ=2θ−43ln(cos2θ)+2tan2θ
So
Area====21[2θ−43ln(cos2θ)+2tan2θ]02π/321[34π−43ln(cos3π)+2tan3π]21[34π−43ln21+23]23ln2+32π+3
