1. Simplifying Rational Expressions | 化简有理式
12) = (x−3)(x+3)/((x−4)(x+3)) = (x−3)/(x−4), x ≠ −3. Always state restrictions to avoid division by zero.
化简代数分式时，需将分子和分母彻底因式分解，再约去公因式。例如 (x² − 9)/(x² − x − 12) = (x−3)(x+3)/((x−4)(x+3)) = (x−3)/(x−4), x ≠ −3。必须注明限制条件以防分母为零。
Multiplication and division of rational expressions follow the same principle: factorise first, then multiply numerators and denominators, cancelling where possible. Addition and subtraction require a common denominator, which is the lowest common multiple of the denominators.
有理式的乘除遵循相同原则：先因式分解，再对分子分母相乘并尽可能约分。加减运算则需要先通分，公分母即各分母的最小公倍数。
Simplifying complex fractions like (1/x + 1/y)/(1/x² − 1/y²) often involves multiplying numerator and denominator by the LCD of all internal fractions.
化简复杂分式如 (1/x + 1/y)/(1/x² − 1/y²) 时，通常需要将分子分母同乘所有内部分式的 LCD。
2. Quadratic Functions and the Discriminant | 二次函数与判别式
repeated real root; Δ < 0, no real roots. The graph of y = ax² + bx + c either cuts the x‑axis twice, touches it, or never meets it.
判别式 Δ = b² − 4ac 决定二次方程 ax² + bx + c = 0 根的性质：Δ > 0，两个不等实根；Δ = 0，一个重实根；Δ < 0，无实根。二次函数的图像可能与 x 轴有两个交点、一个切点或无交点。
symmetry x = h. This form is essential for solving maximisation or minimisation problems.
配方法将 y = ax² + bx + c 化为 a(x − h)² + k，由此得出顶点 (h, k) 和对称轴 x = h。这一形式对于求解最值问题至关重要。
e it as a sum of squares plus a positive constant, e.g. x² − 6x + 13 = (x−3)² + 4 ≥ 4 > 0.
在数学建模中，你可能需要证明某二次式恒正。将其写成平方和加上正常数，如 x² − 6x + 13 = (x−3)² + 4 ≥ 4 > 0。
Inequalities involving quadratics are solved by finding critical values from the roots and testing intervals, using sketches to determine where the expression is positive or negative.
解二次不等式时，先由方程根求出临界值，再利用草图判断各区间的正负，从而得到解集。
3. Polynomial Division and the Factor Theorem | 多项式除法与因式定理
This is the Remainder Theorem. Consequently, if f(a) = 0, then (x − a) is a factor of f(x) — the Factor Theorem.
若多项式 f(x) 除以 (x − a)，余数为 f(a)，此即余式定理。若 f(a) = 0，则 (x − a) 是 f(x) 的因式，这便是因式定理。
To factorise a cubic, first spot an integer root by testing factors of the constant term. Perform algebraic long division or synthetic division to obtain a quadratic factor, then factorise further if possible.
对三次式因式分解时，先通过试根法（检验常数项的因数）找出一个整数根。再用长除法或综合除法得到二次因式，并尽可能继续分解。
hows f(−1) = 0, so (x+1) is a factor. Dividing gives (x+1)(x² − 5x + 6) = (x+1)(x−2)(x−3).
例如 f(x) = x³ − 4x² + x + 6，因 f(−1) = 0，故 (x+1) 为因式。相除得 (x+1)(x² − 5x + 6) = (x+1)(x−2)(x−3)。
tely factorised form and state the roots of f(x) = 0, which are −1, 2, and 3 in this case.
最终应写出完全分解形式，并写出方程 f(x) = 0 的根，本例为 −1、2 和 3。
4. Binomial Expansion | 二项式展开
₀ⁿ ⁿCₖ aⁿ⁻ᵏ bᵏ. The coefficients ⁿCₖ can be found using nCr or Pascal’s triangle. This expansion is valid for all a and b.
对于正整数 n，(a + b)ⁿ = Σₖ₌₀ⁿ ⁿCₖ aⁿ⁻ᵏ bᵏ。二项系数 ⁿCₖ 可通过 nCr 或帕斯卡三角形求得。该展开式对所有 a、b 均成立。
When n is not a positive integer, the expansion (1 + x)ⁿ = 1 + nx + [n(n−1)/2!] x² + ... is valid only for |x| < 1. State the range of validity explicitly in your answer.
当 n 不是正整数时，展开式 (1 + x)ⁿ = 1 + nx + [n(n−1)/2!] x² + ... 仅在 |x| < 1 时成立。作答时务必注明取值范围。
To expand (a + bx)ⁿ with fractional or negative n, rewrite as aⁿ (1 + (b/a)x)ⁿ and expand the bracket using the binomial series. Ensure |(b/a)x| < 1 for convergence.
展开分数或负指数形式的 (a + bx)ⁿ 时，先提取 aⁿ 化为 aⁿ(1 + (b/a)x)ⁿ，再对括号部分进行二项级数展开。需满足 |(b/a)x| < 1。
Exam questions often ask for the first few terms up to x² or x³, and may combine expansions, e.g. find (1−2x)⁻¹ + (1+x)¹/² up to x².
考题常要求写出展开式的前几项（至 x² 或 x³），并可能涉及两个展开式的组合，如求 (1−2x)⁻¹ + (1+x)¹/² 至 x² 项。
5. Solving Trigonometric Equations | 解三角方程
to locate all solutions within the given interval, typically 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360° or 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π.
解 sin θ = k、cos θ = k 或 tan θ = k 时，先用计算器求出主值。再利用 CAST 图或三角函数图像，找出指定区间（常见 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360° 或 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π）内的所有解。
sin² θ − sin θ − 1 = 0 factorises to (2 sin θ + 1)(sin θ − 1) = 0, giving sin θ = −½ or 1.
涉及 sin θ 或 cos θ 的二次方程，可因式分解后分别求解。如 2 sin² θ − sin θ − 1 = 0 分解为 (2 sin θ + 1)(sin θ − 1) = 0，得到 sin θ = −½ 或 1。
Always check that your solutions satisfy the original equation, especially when squaring or using identities, to avoid extraneous roots.
务必检验所有解是否满足原方程，尤其是在平方或使用恒等变换后，以防引入增根。
6. Trigonometric Identities | 三角恒等式
= cosec² θ. These are essential for simplifying expressions and proving other identities.
基本恒等式为 sin² θ + cos² θ = 1，由此可推出 1 + tan² θ = sec² θ 和 1 + cot² θ = cosec² θ。它们在化简表达式和证明其他恒等式时不可或缺。
tan θ)/(1 − tan² θ). These are vital in solving more complex equations and in integration.
倍角公式：sin 2θ = 2 sin θ cos θ，cos 2θ = cos² θ − sin² θ = 2 cos² θ − 1 = 1 − 2 sin² θ，tan 2θ = (2 tan θ)/(1 − tan² θ)。这些在解复杂方程和积分中至关重要。
When proving identities, start with the more complicated side and use algebraic manipulation along with standard identities to transform it into the simpler side. Convert everything to sin and cos if stuck.
证明恒等式时，从较复杂的一侧入手，利用代数运算和标准恒等式逐步化为较简单的一侧。若遇困难，可将所有函数化为 sin 和 cos。
B) appear in many exam proofs and in finding exact values such as sin 75° = sin(45°+30°).
和角公式 sin(A ± B) 和 cos(A ± B) 常出现在证明题及求精确值中，例如 sin 75° = sin(45°+30°)。
7. Exponentials and Logarithms | 指数与对数
The function aˣ is always positive for a > 0. The natural exponential function eˣ has the special property that its derivative is itself. Its inverse is the natural logarithm ln x, defined for x > 0.
函数 aˣ (a > 0) 恒为正。自然指数函数 eˣ 的导数为自身，其反函数为自然对数 ln x，定义域 x > 0。
(aᵏ) = k ln a. These are used to solve exponential equations by taking logs of both sides.
对数法则：ln(ab) = ln a + ln b，ln(a/b) = ln a − ln b，ln(aᵏ) = k ln a。通过两边取对数可解指数方程。
To solve 3²ˣ = 5ˣ linear equation in x. Give exact answers in terms of natural logs unless asked otherwise.
解 3²ˣ = 5ˣ⁻¹ 时，取自然对数得 2x ln 3 = (x−1) ln 5，再解关于 x 的线性方程。除非另有要求，答案通常保留自然对数形式。
s found by setting P = ½P₀ or 2P₀ and solving for t. The constant k is negative for decay.
指数增长与衰减模型常用 P = P₀ eᵏᵗ。设 P = ½P₀ 或 2P₀ 可求半衰期或倍增时间。衰减模型中 k 为负数。
8. Differentiation Techniques | 微分技巧
The product rule: if y = uv, then dy/dx = u'v + uv'. The quotient rule: if y = u/v, then dy/dx = (u'v − uv')/v². The chain rule: if y = f(g(x)), then dy/dx = f'(g(x)) g'(x).
乘积法则：若 y = uv，则 dy/dx = u'v + uv'。商法则：若 y = u/v，则 dy/dx = (u'v − uv')/v²。链式法则：若 y = f(g(x))，则 dy/dx = f'(g(x)) g'(x)。
Differentiate eˣ, sin x, cos x and ln x confidently: d/dx (eˣ) = eˣ (sin x) = cos x, d/dx (cos x) = −sin x, d/dx (ln x) = 1/x. Combine with chain rule for eᵏˣ, sin(kx), etc.
熟练记忆 eˣ、sin x、cos x、ln x 的导数：d/dx (eˣ) = eˣ，d/dx (sin x) = cos x，d/dx (cos x) = −sin x，d/dx (ln x) = 1/x。结合链式法则可求 eᵏˣ、sin(kx) 等函数的导数。
Implicit differentiation is used when y is not given explicitly. Differentiate both sides with respect to x, treating y as a function of x and multiplying any derivative of y by dy/dx. Then solve for dy/dx.
隐函数微分用于 y 未显式给出的情况。方程两边对 x 求导，将 y 视为 x 的函数，对 y 的导数项乘以 dy/dx，最后解出 dy/dx。
9. Integration Fundamentals | 积分基础
erse of differentiation. ∫ xⁿ dx = (xⁿ⁺¹)/(n+1) + C, for n ≠ −1. For n = −1, ∫ 1/x dx = ln|x| + C. The constant of integration C must always be included for indefinite integrals.
积分是微分的逆运算。∫ xⁿ dx = (xⁿ⁺¹)/(n+1) + C（n ≠ −1），当 n = −1 时 ∫ 1/x dx = ln|x| + C。不定积分必须加积分常数 C。
Integrals of standard functions: ∫ eˣ dx = eˣ x + C, ∫ sec² x dx = tan x + C. Apply reverse chain rule for functions like sin(ax) and eᵇˣ.
标准函数的积分：∫ eˣ dx = eˣ + C，∫ cos x dx = sin x + C，∫ sin x dx = −cos x + C，∫ sec² x dx = tan x + C。对于 sin(ax)、eᵇˣ 等，需运用反向链式法则。
Definite integrals find the area between a curve and the x‑ . Areas below the axis give negative contributions; use absolute values if total area is required.
定积分用于求曲线与 x 轴间的面积。∫ₐᵇ f(x) dx = F(b) − F(a)。x 轴下方的区域贡献为负；若求总面积则需取绝对值。
10. Parametric Equations and Implicit Differentiation | 参数方程与隐函数微分
t, y = 4 sin t. To find dy/dx, compute dy/dt and dx/dt, then use dy/dx = (dy/dt)/(dx/dt).
参数方程用第三个变量 t 表示 x 和 y，如 x = 3 cos t, y = 4 sin t。求 dy/dx 时，先求 dy/dt 和 dx/dt，再由 dy/dx = (dy/dt)/(dx/dt) 得出。
For a curve defined implicitly, e.g. x² + xy + y² = 10, differentiate term‑by‑term: 2x + (x dy/dx + y) + 2y dy/dx = 0. Then collect all dy/dx terms and solve.
对于隐式定义的曲线，如 x² + xy + y² = 10，逐项求导：2x + (x dy/dx + y) + 2y dy/dx = 0。然后合并所有含 dy/dx 的项并求解。
/dt (dy/dx)] / (dx/dt). This can be used to determine concavity and locate points of inflection.
参数方程的二阶导数：d²y/dx² = d/dx (dy/dx) = [d/dt (dy/dx)] / (dx/dt)。可用来判断曲线的凹凸性和拐点。
When solving optimisation problems with parametrics, express the quantity to be optimised in terms of t, differentiate and set equal to zero, then verify maxima or minima using the second derivative or sign change test.
解决参数优化问题时，将待优化量表示为 t 的函数，求导并令其为零，再通过二阶导数或符号变化检验最值。
