1.3 diagram 1
(a) Using a formula from page 2, show that
cos2x=12sin2x.\mathrm{cos}\,2x=1-2\mathrm{sin}^2x.
(3)
Figure 2 shows a sketch of part of the curves with equations
y=sinx+2andy=cos2x+2.y=\mathrm{sin}\,x+2 \qquad \text{and} \qquad y=\mathrm{cos}\,2x+2.
The points A\displaystyle A, B\displaystyle B and C\displaystyle C shown in Figure 2 are three points that are common to both curves.
(b) Find the coordinates of each of these points.
(4)
R1\displaystyle R_1 and R2\displaystyle R_2, shown shaded in Figure 2, are two regions enclosed by the two curves.
(c) Use calculus to find, in its simplest form, the ratio
area of R1:area of R2.\text{area of }R_1:\text{area of }R_2.
