0606/11/M/J/22 — Question 6 · 10 marks

(a)
Write down the values of kk for which the line y=ky=k is a tangent to the curve y=4sin(x+π4)+10y=4\,\mathrm{sin}\left(x+\dfrac{\pi}{4}\right)+10.

(b)(i)
Show that
(1+tanθ)(1+cosθ)+(1tanθ)(1cosθ)1cos2θ=2(1+sinθ)sin2θ.\dfrac{(1+\mathrm{tan}\,\theta)(1+\mathrm{cos}\,\theta)+(1-\mathrm{tan}\,\theta)(1-\mathrm{cos}\,\theta)}{1-\mathrm{cos}^{2}\theta}=\dfrac{2(1+\mathrm{sin}\,\theta)}{\mathrm{sin}^{2}\theta}.
[4]
(b)(ii)
Hence solve the equation
(1+tanθ)(1+cosθ)+(1tanθ)(1cosθ)1cos2θ=3\dfrac{(1+\mathrm{tan}\,\theta)(1+\mathrm{cos}\,\theta)+(1-\mathrm{tan}\,\theta)(1-\mathrm{cos}\,\theta)}{1-\mathrm{cos}^{2}\theta}=3
for 0θ3600^{\circ}\leqslant\theta\leqslant 360^{\circ}.
