Year 13 OCR 数学在 AS 阶段基础上进一步深化纯数学中的高等代数、微积分、向量和级数，同时拓展统计与力学的应用模块。本文梳理必须掌握的核心知识点，并将概念与考试中常见的应用和解题技巧联系起来。
1. Algebra and Functions (Part 2) | 代数与函数 (续)
Rational functions are decomposed into partial fractions to simplify integration. Cases include distinct linear factors, repeated linear factors and irreducible quadratic factors. For example, (5x+3)/((x+1)(x-2)) can be written as A/(x+1) + B/(x-2), and terms like (2x)/(x²+1) remain as they are.
有理函数被分解为部分分式以简化积分。情形包括不同的一次因子、重复的一次因子和不可约的二次因子。例如 (5x+3)/((x+1)(x-2)) 可写成 A/(x+1) + B/(x-2)，而像 (2x)/(x²+1) 的项则保持原样。
The modulus function |x| and equations such as |2x-5| = 3 are solved by considering both positive and negative cases. Inequalities like |x-2| > 4 require intersection or union of solution sets.
模函数 |x| 以及方程如 |2x-5|=3 需通过讨论正负两种情况来求解。不等式如 |x-2|>4 则需要对解集取交集或并集。
ns f⁻¹(x) exist only when f is one-to-one; their graphs are reflections in the line y = x.
复合函数 fg(x) 表示 f(g(x))，其定义域受限于 g 的定义域和 f 的定义域。只有一一对应的函数才有反函数 f⁻¹(x)，它们的图像关于直线 y = x 对称。
2. Trigonometry | 三角函数
clude 1 + tan²x = sec²x and 1 + cot²x = cosec²x, which are derived from sin²x + cos²x = 1.
引入了倒数三角函数 sec x = 1/cos x、cosec x = 1/sin x 和 cot x = 1/tan x。核心恒等式有 1 + tan²x = sec²x 和 1 + cot²x = cosec²x，它们都源于 sin²x + cos²x = 1。
le, arcsin x has range [-π/2, π/2]. These are used to solve equations such as sin θ = 0.7.
反三角函数 arcsin x、arccos x 和 arctan x 通过限制定义域与值域来保持一一对应，例如 arcsin x 的值域为 [-π/2, π/2]。它们用于求解方程如 sin θ = 0.7。
cos(x ± α) simplifies expressions like a sin x + b cos x. Equating coefficients gives R = √a²+b² and tan α = b/a. This transformation helps find maxima and solve equations.
谐波形式 R sin(x ± α) 或 R cos(x ± α) 可简化 a sin x + b cos x 的表达式。比较系数可得 R = √a²+b² 和 tan α = b/a。这种变换有助于求最值和解方程。
3. Exponentials and Logarithms | 指数与对数
The natural exponential function y = eˣ and natural logarithm y = ln x are central. Their derivatives are d/dx (eˣ) = eˣ and d/dx (ln x) = 1/x. The relationship eln x = x holds for x > 0.
自然指数函数 y = eˣ 和自然对数 y = ln x 是核心。它们的导数分别为 d/dx (eˣ) = eˣ 和 d/dx (ln x) = 1/x。对于 x > 0，有 eln x = x 的关系。
= ln a - ln b, ln(aᵏ) = k ln a. These are useful when solving exponential equations like 3ˣ = 5.
对数法则可化简乘积、商和幂：ln(ab) = ln a + ln b，ln(a/b) = ln a - ln b，ln(aᵏ) = k ln a。这些在解指数方程如 3ˣ = 5 时很有用。
Exponential growth and decay models use the form y = A ekt. Applications include population growth, radioactive decay and temperature change. The constant k determines the rate, and half-life or doubling time can be found.
指数增长与衰减模型采用 y = A ekt 的形式，应用于种群增长、放射性衰变和温度变化。常数 k 决定速率，可由此计算半衰期或倍增时间。
4. Differentiation | 微分
The chain rule, product rule and quotient rule are extended to functions like esin x if y = u(v(x)) then dy/dx = (du/dv)(dv/dx), and if y = uv then dy/dx = u dv/dx + v du/dx.
链式法则、乘积法则和商法则被扩展到 esin x、x² ln x 和 (x+1)/cos x 等函数。记住模式至关重要：若 y = u(v(x))，则 dy/dx = (du/dv)(dv/dx)；若 y = uv，则 dy/dx = u dv/dx + v du/dx。
explicitly a function. Differentiate each term with respect to x, treating y as a function and multiplying dy/dx whenever you differentiate y.
隐函数微分适用于诸如 x² + y² = 25 的方程，其中 y 并非显函数。对 x 逐项求导，将 y 视为函数，每次对 y 求导时乘以 dy/dx。
s gradient and tangent calculations. The second derivative d²y/dx² is obtained by differentiating dy/dx with respect to t and dividing by dx/dt.
参数方程微分使用 dy/dx = (dy/dt) / (dx/dt)。当曲线由 x = f(t), y = g(t) 给出时，可由此计算梯度和切线。二阶导数 d²y/dx² 则是先对 t 求 dy/dx 的导数，再除以 dx/dt。
5. Integration | 积分
s(3x+2) dx = ⅓ sin(3x+2) + C. Recognising derivatives inside the integrand is a key skill.
标准积分与反向链式法则可积出诸如 ∫ cos(3x+2) dx = ⅓ sin(3x+2) + C 的式子。识别被积函数内部的导数是一项关键技能。
Integration by substitution uses the chain rule in reverse. For ∫ x √x+1 dx, let u = x+1, then du = dx and x = u-1. The integral becomes ∫ (u-1)√u du, which is simpler.
换元积分法利用链式法则的逆过程。对于 ∫ x √x+1 dx，令 u = x+1，则 du = dx 且 x = u-1，积分化为 ∫ (u-1)√u du，变得简单。
Integration by parts: ∫ u dv = uv - ∫ v du
分部积分：∫ u dv = uv - ∫ v du
Choose u and dv wisely, often letting u be a function that simplifies when differentiated, such as ln x or x.
需明智地选择 u 和 dv，通常让 u 为求导后能简化的函数，如 ln x 或 x。
d areas under curves. The area between two curves y = f(x) and y = g(x) from a to b is ∫ₐᵇ |f(x) - g(x)| dx. Volumes of revolution about the x‑axis use V = π ∫ₐᵇ y² dx.
定积分给出曲线下的面积。两条曲线 y = f(x) 和 y = g(x) 在 a 到 b 之间的面积为 ∫ₐᵇ |f(x) - g(x)| dx。绕 x 轴旋转的体积公式为 V = π ∫ₐᵇ y² dx。
6. Numerical Methods | 数值方法
oot exists if f is continuous. Iteration rearranges the equation into x = g(x), and the sequence xn+1 = g(xn) may converge.
当方程无法代数求解时，数值方法可近似求根。若函数连续，f(x) 在区间 [a, b] 内变号即表明存在根。迭代将方程改写为 x = g(x)，数列 xn+1 = g(xn) 可能收敛。
The Newton-Raphson method uses tangents to locate roots: xn+1 = xn - f(xn)/f'(xn). It converges quickly but requires a good starting value and f'(x) ≠ 0 near the root.
牛顿-拉弗森方法利用切线求根：xn+1 = xn - f(xn)/f'(xn)。该方法收敛很快，但需要较好的初始值，且根附近 f'(x) ≠ 0。
pezium rule approximates ∫ₐᵇ y dx using strips of equal width h: Area ≈ h/2 [y₀ + 2(y₁+y₂+…+yn-1) + yn]. Increasing the number of strips improves accuracy.
梯形法则通过对等宽条带求和来近似 ∫ₐᵇ y dx：面积 ≈ h/2 [y₀ + 2(y₁+y₂+…+yn-1) + yn]。增加条带数可提高精度。
7. Vectors in 3D | 三维向量
Points in 3D use coordinates (x, y, z), and vectors are written as a = xi + yj + zk. The magnitude is |a| = √x²+y²+z². Adding vectors and multiplying by scalars follow the same rules as in 2D.
三维空间中的点用坐标 (x, y, z) 表示，向量记作 a = xi + yj + zk。模长为 |a| = √x²+y²+z²。向量的加法和数乘遵循与二维相同的规则。
The vector equation of a line in 3D is r = a + tb, where a is a point on the line and b is the direction vector. You must be able to convert between vector and Cartesian forms.
三维空间中的直线向量方程为 r = a + tb，其中 a 为直线上一点，b 为方向向量。需要能进行向量形式与直角坐标形式的转换。
The scalar (dot) product a·b = |a||b| It is used to find angles between vectors and to test perpendicularity (dot product = 0).
数量积（点积）a·b = |a||b| cos θ = x₁x₂ + y₁y₂ + z₁z₂。可用于求向量之间的夹角以及检验垂直关系（点积为 0）。
8. Sequences and Series | 数列与级数
The binomial expansion is extended to rational powers: (1 + x)ⁿ = 1 + nx + n(n-1)x²/2! + … , valid for |x| not a positive integer, the series is infinite and you must state the validity condition.
二项展开式被推广到有理数幂：(1 + x)ⁿ = 1 + nx + n(n-1)x²/2! + …，要求 |x| < 1。当 n 不是正整数时，级数是无穷的，并且必须注明有效性条件。
Maclaurin series expansions express functions as infinite polynomials: eˣ = 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3! + … ; sin x = x - x³/3! + x⁵/5! - … ; cos x = 1 - x²/2! + x⁴/4! - … You may be required to derive a series up to a given power.
麦克劳林级数展开将函数表示为无限多项式：eˣ = 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3! + …；sin x = x - x³/3! + x⁵/5! - …；cos x = 1 - x²/2! + x⁴/4! - …。考题可能会要求推导到指定的幂次。
Simple arithmetic and geometric series from Year 12 are reviewed, and sigma notation Σ is used extensively. Recognising when a series converges is important for infinite sums.
Year 12 学过的简单等差和等比级数在此得以复习，并大量使用求和符号 Σ。对于无穷和，辨别级数是否收敛至关重要。
9. Statistical Distributions and Hypothesis Testing | 统计分布与假设检验
The normal distribution X ~ d probabilities and critical values. You also apply the normal distribution to sample means, where the sample mean has variance σ²/n.
正态分布 X ~ N(μ, σ²) 被深入学习。借助标准化 Z = (X-μ)/σ，可求出概率和临界值。正态分布还应用于样本均值，其方差为 σ²/n。
The normal approximation to the binomial: if X ~ (1-p)). A continuity correction improves the approximation when calculating probabilities.
二项分布的正态近似：若 X ~ B(n, p) 且 n 很大，则 X ≈ N(np, np(1-p))。计算概率时使用连续性校正可提升近似效果。
Hypothesis tests for the mean of a normal distribution (σ known) use the test statistic Z. You set up H₀ and H₁, determine the critical region and conclude whether to reject H₀. Similar ideas apply to testing a binomial proportion p.
对正态分布均值（σ 已知）的假设检验使用检验统计量 Z。设立原假设 H₀ 和备择假设 H₁，确定拒绝域，然后作出是否拒绝 H₀ 的结论。类似的思想也适用于检验二项分布的比例 p。
10. Mechanics: Kinematics and Forces | 力学：运动学与力
. When acceleration varies, velocity is the derivative of displacement, and acceleration is the derivative of velocity.
一维运动学采用匀加速公式：v = u + at，s = ut + ½ at²，v² = u² + 2as，s = ½(u+v)t。当加速度变化时，速度是位移的导数，加速度是速度的导数。
lane is essential. Friction is modelled by F ≤ μR, where μ is the coefficient of friction.
牛顿定律被应用于连接体和斜面上的物体。将力分解为平行和垂直于平面的分量至关重要。摩擦力用 F ≤ μR 建模，其中 μ 为摩擦系数。
um satisfies both ΣF = 0 and ΣM = 0. This principle solves problems with beams and pivots.
力矩衡量转动效应：力矩 = 力 × 垂直距离。处于平衡的物体满足 ΣF = 0 和 ΣM = 0。这一原理可求解含有梁和支点的问题。
