Figure 1 shows a plot of part of the curve with equation y = 2 cos 4x where x is measured in
radians.

(a) Copy and use Figure 1 to show why the equation

2 cos 4x – 10x – 1 = 0
only has one root.

(b) The root to this equation, , is very small. Using this as justification for using the small
angle approximation for cos x, find  to 3 decimal places.

Give explanations for any rejected solutions.

4. (a) Find the first three terms, in ascending powers of x, of the binomial expansion of

The expansion can be used to find an approximation to 3

Possible values of x that could be substituted into this expansion are:

2 1 √3
 x = 3 because √ 9−x = 5
1 1 √3
 x=6 because √ 9−x = √3 = 3
1 1 √3
 x = –18 because √ 9−x = √27 = 9
(b) Without evaluating your expansion,

(i) state, giving a reason, which of the three values of x should not be used,

(ii) state, giving a reason, which of the three values of x would lead to the most accurate
approximation to 3.
