1. The vast majority of students correctly used the identity cosh2x = 1 + sinh2x to obtain a
quadratic in sin hx. Most then used the logarithmic form of arsinh to obtain the final answers.
Some students wrote sin hx in terms of exponentials and proceeded to solve the resulting
quadratics in ex and sometimes ended up with extra solutions that were not rejected. A
significant number of students attempted to solve the given equation by expressing it in terms
of exponentials. Such solutions usually stopped once a quartic in ex was reached. Quite often,
students who adopted this approach, realised that any progress would be difficult and so
resorted to using the identity cosh2x = 1 + sinh2x.

4. This question was well answered by candidates and statistics showed that at least 50% of the
ud
.c
candidature scored 7 or more marks out the 8 available for this question. Some of these
om
candidates usually lost the final accuracy mark as they either missed out the constant of
y
integration or usually incorrectly manipulated = 2 sin x + K to give y = 2 sin2x + K
sin x
Most candidates were able to divide all terms in the differential equation by sin x to achieve
dy
an equation of the form + P( x) y =Q( x) and most attempted to find the integrating factor.
dx
cos x cos x
Some candidates wrote down e ∫ sin x as their integrating factor instead of e ∫ sin x . A few
dx − dx
cos x
candidates struggled to integrate − correctly, but a significant number simplified
sin x
e − ln sin x incorrectly to sin x. At this stage, some candidates did not use their integrating factor
d
correctly to achieve an equation of the form ( y × their I.F.) = sin 2x × their I.F. and so lost
dx
the remaining four marks. There were also a significant number of candidates who struggled
to simplify sin 2x cosec x to 2cos x.

8. It was surprising how few candidates realised that integrating from 0 to and multiplying
.c
om
4
by 4 was the easiest way to deal with part (a), but almost all candidates did manage to obtain
the correct answer. Part (b) could be approached in a number of ways and most candidates
knew to differentiate r sin θ. It was surprising that fewer students did not realise that by
differentiating r2 sin2θ they could have simplified the algebra. The product and chain rules
were generally used correctly but many candidates did not seem sufficiently confident with
manipulating trigonometric expressions to be able to see their derivative through to a
solution. Slips in accuracy led to equations becoming overcomplicated and the candidates
were unable to recover. Poor handwriting and poor presentation did not help when trying to
work out what some candidates were doing. Many candidates overcomplicated the final stage
of this question by not realising that they could substitute θ = 0 into r to find the width of the
d
rectangle. Instead, time was wasted solving (r cos θ) = 0. It is worth reminding candidates
dθ
that communicating their method is very important. Many candidates wrote minimal working
and produced an answer for which, if incorrect, their working made it difficult to ascertain
how the answer had been derived.
