C4 Mathematics Edexcel June 2011 Question 7

Figure 3 shows part of the curve C with parametric equations
x = tanθ, y = sinθ , 0 ≤ θ < π/2

The point P lies on C and has coordinates (√3, ½√3)

(a) Find the value of ș at the point P.

The line l is a normal to C at P. The normal cuts the x-axis at the point Q.

(b) Show that Q has coordinates (k√3, 0) , giving the value of the constant k.

The finite shaded region S shown in Figure 3 is bounded by the curve C, the line x = √3 and the x-axis. This shaded region is rotated through 2π radians about the x-axis to form a solid of revolution.

(a) Parametric equations

(b) Normal to a Parametric Curve
