1. Complex Numbers: Argand Diagrams and De Moivre | 复数：阿尔冈图与棣莫弗定理
For any complex number z = a + bi, the modulus is r = √a² + b² tiplying or dividing complex numbers is best done in polar form: z₁z₂ = r₁r₂ e^(i(θ₁+θ₂)).
对任意复数 z = a + bi，模为 r = √a² + b²，辐角 θ = arctan(b/a)（需根据象限调整）。复数的乘法与除法宜用极坐标形式：z₁z₂ = r₁r₂ e^(i(θ₁+θ₂))。
De Moivre's theorem states (cosθ + i sinθ)n + i sin nθ. This is invaluable for finding powers and roots of complex numbers. To solve zn = w, first write w in polar form, then apply z = w1/n = r1/n [cos((θ+2kπ)/n) + i sin((θ+2kπ)/n)] for k = 0, 1, …, n-1.
棣莫弗定理：(cosθ + i sinθ)n = cos nθ + i sin nθ。它对求复数的幂与根至关重要。求解 zn = w 时，先将 w 转为极坐标形式，然后 z = w1/n = r1/n[cos((θ+2kπ)/n) + i sin((θ+2kπ)/n)]，k = 0,1,…,n-1。
Loci in the Argand diagram: |z - z₀| bes a circle; arg(z - z₀) = θ gives a half-line. Intersections often solve simultaneously.
阿尔冈图上的轨迹：|z - z₀| = r 表示圆；arg(z - z₀) = θ 表示射线。交点通常需联立求解。
2. Matrices: Inverses, Determinants and Transformations | 矩阵：逆、行列式与变换
1/det(M)) [[d,-b],[-c,a]]. For 3×3 matrices, use cofactor expansion or calculator methods.
2×2 矩阵 M = [[a,b],[c,d]] 的逆存在条件是 det(M) = ad - bc ≠ 0，且 M⁻¹ = (1/det(M)) [[d,-b],[-c,a]]。对 3×3 矩阵，使用代数余子式展开或计算器方法。
b; then x = A⁻¹b. Check consistency: if det(A) = 0, the system may have no unique solution – examine the augmented matrix for contradictions or infinite solutions.
用矩阵解联立方程：将方程组写为 Ax = b，则 x = A⁻¹b。需检查一致性：若 det(A) = 0，系统可能无唯一解——要用增广矩阵判断是矛盾还是无穷多解。
Linear transformations: know the standard matrices for reflection, rotation, enlargement, shear and stretch. Composition of transformations corresponds to matrix multiplication in reverse order.
线性变换：熟记反射、旋转、放大、剪切和拉伸的标准矩阵。复合变换对应矩阵的逆向乘法。
3. Further Algebra and Functions: Rational Functions and Inequalities | 进阶代数与函数：有理函数与不等式
Sketch rational functions by identifying vertical asymptotes (denominator zero), horizontal/oblique asymptotes (degrees of numerator and denominator), and intercepts. Factor and cancel common factors to find holes.
绘制有理函数图像时需识别垂直渐近线（分母为零）、水平/斜渐近线（分子分母的次数比较）以及截距。因式分解并约去公因式可找到“洞”。
nsidering critical values and asymptotes. Always write the final answer in set notation or on a number line.
解如 (2x+1)/(x-3) ≥ 1 的不等式：移项合并为一个分式，化简得 (x+4)/(x-3) ≥ 0，然后用符号表考虑临界值和渐近线。最终答案用集合标记或数轴表示。
4. Further Calculus: Maclaurin Series and Improper Integrals | 进阶微积分：麦克劳林级数与反常积分
The Maclaurin series expansion for f(x) is f(0) + f'(0)x + f''(0)x²/2! + f'''(0)x³/3! + ... . Key expansions: eˣ = 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3! + ... ; sin x = x - x³/3! + x⁵/5! - ... ; cos x = 1 - x²/2! + x⁴/4! - ...; ln(1+x) = x - x²/2 + x³/3 - x⁴/4 + ... for |x| < 1.
麦克劳林级数展开：f(x) = f(0) + f'(0)x + f''(0)x²/2! + f'''(0)x³/3! + ... 。重要展开式：eˣ = 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3! + ... ；sin x = x - x³/3! + x⁵/5! - ... ；cos x = 1 - x²/2! + x⁴/4! - ... ；ln(1+x) = x - x²/2 + x³/3 - x⁴/4 + ... (|x| < 1)。
integrands by replacing the problem point with a variable and taking the limit. For ∫₀¹ 1/√x dx, write limit t→0⁺ ∫ₜ¹ x⁻˝ dx. Convergence requires the limit to be finite.
反常积分：对积分限无穷或被积函数有间断点的情况，用变量替换问题点并取极限。如 ∫₀¹ 1/√x dx，写成 lim t→0⁺ ∫ₜ¹ x⁻˝ dx。收敛要求极限有限。
5. Polar Coordinates: Curves and Areas | 极坐标：曲线与面积
circle r = a, cardioid r = a(1+cosθ), limacon, rose curves r = a cos(nθ) or r = a sin(nθ).
在极坐标中，点由 (r, θ) 表示。曲线常表为 r = f(θ)。常见类型：圆 r = a，心形线 r = a(1+cosθ)，蚌线，玫瑰线 r = a cos(nθ) 或 r = a sin(nθ)。
loops, determine the θ-range where r ≥ 0. Area between two curves: A = ½ ∫ (r₂² - r₁²) dθ.
极坐标曲线围成的面积：A = ½ ∫ r² dθ，在相应 θ 范围内。有环时，先确定 r ≥ 0 的 θ 范围。两曲线间的面积：A = ½ ∫ (r₂² - r₁²) dθ。
y = r sinθ. Use this to convert equations and also to evaluate integrals involving x²+y².
直角坐标与极坐标转换：x = r cosθ, y = r sinθ。用于方程转换以及含 x²+y² 的积分计算。
6. Hyperbolic Functions: Identities, Graphs and Calculus | 双曲函数：恒等式、图像与微积分
Definitions: sinh x = (eˣ - e⁻ˣ)/2, cosh x = (eˣ + e⁻ˣ h x. Their derivatives: d/dx sinh x = cosh x, d/dx cosh x = sinh x, d/dx tanh x = sech² x.
定义：sinh x = (eˣ - e⁻ˣ)/2，cosh x = (eˣ + e⁻ˣ)/2，tanh x = sinh x / cosh x。导数：d/dx sinh x = cosh x，d/dx cosh x = sinh x，d/dx tanh x = sech² x。
ve equations like a cosh x + b sinh x = c by rewriting one function in terms of the other.
核心恒等式：cosh² x - sinh² x = 1；sinh 2x = 2 sinh x cosh x；cosh 2x = cosh² x + sinh² x = 2cosh² x - 1 = 2sinh² x + 1。常用于解方程如 a cosh x + b sinh x = c，将一个函数用另一个表达。
Inverse hyperbolic functions have logarithmic forms: arsinh x = ln(x + √x²+1), arcosh x = ln(x + √x²-1) for x ≥ 1, artanh x = ½ ln((1+x)/(1-x)) for |x| < 1.
反双曲函数的对数形式：arsinh x = ln(x + √x²+1)，arcosh x = ln(x + √x²-1) (x ≥ 1)，artanh x = ½ ln((1+x)/(1-x)) (|x| < 1)。
7. Differential Equations: First Order and Second Order | 微分方程：一阶与二阶
linear ODEs of the form dy/dx + P(x)y = Q(x) are solved using an integrating factor I = e∫ P dx. Then d/dx (I y) = I Q, integrate and solve for y.
形如 dy/dx + P(x)y = Q(x) 的一阶线性常微分方程，用积分因子 I = e∫ P dx 求解。则 d/dx (I y) = I Q，积分得 y。
Second order homogeneous ODEs: a y'' + b y' = 0. Solve the auxiliary equation a m² + b m + c = 0. If roots real and distinct: y = A em₁x + B em₂x; repeated: y = (A + Bx)emx; complex (α ± iβ): y = eαx(A cos βx + B sin βx).
二阶齐次常微分方程：a y'' + b y' + c y = 0。解辅助方程 a m² + b m + c = 0。若根为实且不等：y = A em₁x + B em₂x；重根：y = (A + Bx)emx；复根 (α ± iβ)：y = eαx(A cos βx + B sin βx)。
rying a form similar to RHS (polynomial, exponential, trig). General solution y = CF + PI.
非齐次：先求齐次部分的补函数 (CF)，再利用与右侧函数（多项式、指数、三角）相似的试验函数求特解 (PI)。通解 y = CF + PI。
8. Series: Summation and Method of Differences | 级数：求和与差分法
o these standard forms. Always check the number of terms if the sum does not start at r=1.
标准结果：Σ r = n(n+1)/2，Σ r² = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6，Σ r³ = n²(n+1)²/4。将复杂求和拆分为这些标准形式。若求和不从 r=1 开始，务必检查项数。
The method of differences exploits telescoping series: express the general term as uᵣ - uᵣ₊₁ or uᵣ₊₁ - uᵣ, then most terms cancel, leaving only the first and last. Useful for series like Σ 1/(r(r+1)).
差分法利用裂项相消：将通项写成 uᵣ - uᵣ₊₁ 或 uᵣ₊₁ - uᵣ，则大部分项抵消，只剩首尾。常用于 Σ 1/(r(r+1)) 这类级数。
then take limit as n → ∞. If the limit exists, the sum to infinity is given by that limit.
无穷级数收敛于某极限时，先求第 n 部分和，再令 n → ∞。若极限存在，则无穷和为该极限值。
9. Vectors: Lines, Planes and Distances | 向量：直线、平面与距离
lar product form), or r = a + λ u + μ v (parametric). Cartesian form: n₁x + n₂y + n₃z = d.
三维直线方程：r = a + λ b，a 为线上一点，b 为方向向量。平面方程：r · n = d（点积形式），或 r = a + λ u + μ v（参数形式）。直角坐标式：n₁x + n₂y + n₃z = d。
Angle between vectors: use dot product a · b = |a||b| and plane: find angle α between direction vector b and normal n; required angle = 90° - α.
向量夹角：用点积 a · b = |a||b| cosθ。直线与平面的夹角：找出方向向量 b 与法向量 n 的夹角 α；所求夹角 = 90° - α。
Shortest distance from a point to a line: use d = |(p - a) × b| / |b|. From point to plane: d = |(p · n - d)| / |n|. Between skew lines: find common perpendicular vector n = b₁ × b₂, then d = |(a₂ - a₁) · n| / |n|.
点到直线的最短距离：d = |(p - a) × b| / |b|。点到平面距离：d = |(p · n - d)| / |n|。异面直线距离：找公垂向量 n = b₁ × b₂，则 d = |(a₂ - a₁) · n| / |n|。
10. Proof by Induction and Contradiction | 归纳法与反证法
1 using the hypothesis. Common in divisibility, series summation, and matrix power proofs.
归纳证明：(1) 奠基：验证 n=1 成立。(2) 归纳假设：假设 n=k 时成立。(3) 归纳递推：利用假设证明 n=k+1 成立。常用于整除性、级数求和及矩阵幂的证明。
le by d, often write f(k+1) = f(k) + (a multiple of d) or factorise. Always state clearly: "If true for k, then true for k+1." Conclude: "Hence by induction, true for all n ∈ ℕ".
考官青睐整除性问题：欲证 f(k+1) 能被 d 整除，常写成 f(k+1) = f(k) + (d 的倍数) 或进行因式分解。清晰表述：“若对 k 成立，则对 k+1 成立。” 总结：“由归纳法，对所有自然数 n 成立”。
Proof by contradiction: assume the negation is true, then logically derive an impossibility (e.g., rational √2). Frequently used to prove irrationality, infinitely many primes, or that there is no greatest integer.
反证法：假设原命题的否定成立，然后逻辑推导出不可能的情况（如 √2 是有理数）。常用于证明无理数、素数无穷多或不存在最大整数。
