1. Complex Numbers: Arithmetic and Argand Diagram | 复数：运算与Argand图
llowing calculations: (a) z + w, (b) z w, (c) z/w, giving answers in the form a + bi. Then find the modulus and argument of z, and plot z, w, and z + w on an Argand diagram.
设 z = 3 + 4i，w = 1 - 2i。计算：(a) z + w, (b) z w, (c) z/w，结果以 a + bi 形式给出。然后求 z 的模和辐角，并在 Argand 图中标出 z、w 和 z + w。
ith i² = -1: (3+4i)(1-2i) = 3×1 + 3×(-2i) + 4i×1 + 4i×(-2i) = 3 - 6i + 4i - 8i² = 3 - 2i + 8 = 11 - 2i.
加法时分别合并实部和虚部：(3+4i)+(1-2i) = (3+1)+(4-2)i = 4+2i。乘法按照多项式展开并利用 i² = -1：(3+4i)(1-2i) = 3×1 + 3×(-2i) + 4i×1 + 4i×(-2i) = 3 - 6i + 4i - 8i² = 3 - 2i + 8 = 11 - 2i。
umerator (3+4i)(1+2i) = 3 + 6i + 4i + 8i² = 3 + 10i - 8 = -5 + 10i. Denominator (1-2i)(1+2i) = 1 - 4i² = 1 + 4 = 5. So z/w = (-5 + 10i)/5 = -1 + 2i.
除法需要分子分母同乘分母的共轭复数：(3+4i)/(1-2i) 上下同乘 (1+2i)：分子 (3+4i)(1+2i) = 3 + 6i + 4i + 8i² = 3+10i-8 = -5+10i；分母 (1-2i)(1+2i) = 1 - 4i² = 5。因此 z/w = (-5+10i)/5 = -1+2i。
The modulus of z is |z| = √3² + 4² = √9+16 = √25 1° (or 0.927 radians). On the Argand diagram, plot (3,4) for z, (1,-2) for w, and (4,2) for z + w, clearly showing the parallelogram law of addition.
z 的模为 |z| = √3² + 4² = √9+16 = 5，辐角 θ = arctan(4/3) ≈ 53.1°（或 0.927 rad）。在 Argand 图中，分别标出 z 的点 (3,4)、w 的点 (1,-2) 以及 z+w 的点 (4,2)，体现出向量加法的平行四边形法则。
2. Roots of Polynomial Equations | 多项式方程的根
lving the equation, find the values of (a) α + β, (b) αβ, (c) α² + β², and (d) 1/α + 1/β. Hence form a new quadratic equation whose roots are 2α+1 and 2β+1.
题目：二次方程 2x² - 3x + 5 = 0 的根为 α 和 β。不解方程，求以下各式的值：(a) α + β, (b) αβ, (c) α² + β², (d) 1/α + 1/β。并由此构造一个以 2α+1 和 2β+1 为根的新二次方程。
b/a and product αβ = c/a. Here a = 2, b = -3, c = 5 so α + β = -(-3)/2 = 3/2 and αβ = 5/2.
对二次方程 ax² + bx + c = 0，根之和 α + β = -b/a，根之积 αβ = c/a。本题 a=2, b=-3, c=5，故 α + β = 3/2，αβ = 5/2。
2×(5/2) = 9/4 - 5 = 9/4 - 20/4 = -11/4. Also 1/α + 1/β = (α+β)/(αβ) = (3/2) / (5/2) = 3/5.
于是 α² + β² = (α+β)² - 2αβ = (3/2)² - 2×(5/2) = 9/4 - 5 = -11/4；1/α + 1/β = (α+β)/(αβ) = (3/2)/(5/2) = 3/5。
) + 2×(3/2) + 1 = 10 + 3 + 1 = 14. The new equation is x² - Sx + P = 0 → x² - 5x + 14 = 0.
新根之和 S = (2α+1)+(2β+1) = 2(α+β)+2 = 2×(3/2)+2 = 5；新根之积 P = (2α+1)(2β+1) = 4αβ + 2(α+β) + 1 = 4×(5/2) + 2×(3/2) + 1 = 10+3+1 = 14。所求方程为 x² - 5x + 14 = 0。
3. Summation of Finite Series | 有限级数求和
t to find Σ (r=10 to 30) r(r+1). Standard formulas: Σ r = n(n+1)/2, Σ r² = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6.
计算 Σ (r=1 到 n) r(r+1) 并使用结果求 Σ (r=10 到 30) r(r+1)。标准公式：Σ r = n(n+1)/2，Σ r² = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6。
= [n(n+1)(2n+1) + 3n(n+1)] / 6 = n(n+1)[(2n+1) + 3] / 6 = n(n+1)(2n+4)/6 = n(n+1)(n+2)/3.
先展开：r(r+1) = r² + r。于是 Σ r(r+1) = Σ r² + Σ r = [n(n+1)(2n+1)/6] + [n(n+1)/2]。通分：= [n(n+1)(2n+1) + 3n(n+1)] / 6 = n(n+1)[(2n+1)+3] / 6 = n(n+1)(2n+4)/6 = n(n+1)(n+2)/3。
3 = 10×31×32 = 9920. S(9) = 9×10×11 / 3 = 3×10×11 = 330. Thus the sum = 9920 - 330 = 9590.
所求和为 S(30) - S(9)，其中 S(n) = n(n+1)(n+2)/3。S(30) = 30×31×32/3 = 10×31×32 = 9920；S(9) = 9×10×11/3 = 3×10×11 = 330。因此结果为 9920 - 330 = 9590。
4. Matrices: Determinant and Inverse | 矩阵：行列式与逆矩阵
1], [5, 3]]. (a) Find det(M). (b) Determine M⁻¹. (c) Solve the system M [x; y] = [4; 11].
已知矩阵 M = [[2, 1], [5, 3]]。(a) 求 det(M)。(b) 求 M⁻¹。(c) 解方程组 M [x; y] = [4; 11]。
d]] is (1/det) [[d, -b], [-c, a]]. So M⁻¹ = (1/1) [[3, -1], [-5, 2]] = [[3, -1], [-5, 2]].
det(M) = 2×3 - 1×5 = 6 - 5 = 1。行列式非零，逆矩阵存在。2×2 矩阵的逆为 (1/det) [[d, -b], [-c, a]]。故 M⁻¹ = [[3, -1], [-5, 2]]。
]] [4; 11] = [3×4 + (-1)×11; -5×4 + 2×11] = [12 - 11; -20 + 22] = [1; 2]. So x = 1, y = 2.
两边同乘 M⁻¹： [x; y] = M⁻¹ [4; 11] = [3×4 + (-1)×11; -5×4 + 2×11] = [1; 2]。即 x=1, y=2。
5. Linear Transformations and Invariant Lines | 线性变换与不变直线
he line y = x is invariant under T. (c) Find any other invariant lines through the origin.
变换 T 由矩阵 A = [[1, 2], [2, 1]] 表示。(a) 求点 (1,0) 和 (0,1) 的像。(b) 证明直线 y = x 在 T 下是不变直线。(c) 求其他过原点的不变直线。
= λ [x; y] for some scalar λ, i.e. eigenvectors. The characteristic equation is det(A - λI) = (1-λ)(1-λ) - 4 = λ² - 2λ - 3 = 0 → λ = 3 or λ = -1. For λ=3: (A-3I) [x; y] = 0 gives -2x + 2y = 0 → y = x. For λ=-1: (A+I) gives 2x + 2y = 0 → y = -x. Thus invariant lines are y = x and y = -x.
像点：(1,0) → (1,2)；(0,1) → (2,1)。过原点的不变直线满足 A [x; y] = λ [x; y]，即特征向量。特征方程 det(A-λI) = (1-λ)² - 4 = λ² - 2λ - 3 = 0，得 λ=3 或 λ=-1。λ=3 时，(A-3I)[x;y]=0 推出 -2x+2y=0 → y=x；λ=-1 时推出 2x+2y=0 → y=-x。因此不变直线为 y=x 和 y=-x。
+k) = (3k,3k), which stays on y = x. Similarly (k,-k) maps to (-k, -k) showing invariance.
验证：y=x 上的点 (k,k) 映射为 (k+2k, 2k+k) = (3k,3k)，仍在 y=x 上；y=-x 上的点 (k,-k) 映射为 (-k, -k) 不变。
6. Modulus and Rational Inequalities | 模与有理不等式
Solve: (a) |2x - 3| ≤ 5. (b) (x - 1)/(x + 2) > 0. (c) |x + 1| > 2| x - 3|.
解不等式：(a) |2x - 3| ≤ 5。(b) (x - 1)/(x + 2) > 0。(c) |x + 1| > 2| x - 3|。
(a) |2x - 3| ≤ 5 ⇔ -5 ≤ 2x - 3 ≤ 5. Add 3: -2 ≤ 2x ≤ 8 → -1 ≤ x ≤ 4. So solution set is x ∈ [-1, 4].
(a) |2x - 3| ≤ 5 ⇔ -5 ≤ 2x - 3 ≤ 5，加3得 -2 ≤ 2x ≤ 8，故 -1 ≤ x ≤ 4，解集为 [-1, 4]。
; x = 0 → (-)/(+) = - <0; x = 2 → (+)/(+) = + >0. The inequality is strict, exclude x = 1 and x = -2 (denominator cannot be zero). Solution: x < -2 or x > 1.
(b) 分子或分母为零的临界点：x=1, x=-2。利用符号表：区间 (-∞,-2), (-2,1), (1,∞)。检验 x=-3 得正；x=0 得负；x=2 得正。不等式严格，排除 x=1 和 x=-2。解为 x < -2 或 x > 1。
ing all to one side: 0 > 3x² - 26x + 35 → 3x² - 26x + 35 < 0. Solve the quadratic: discriminant Δ = 676 - 420 = 256, roots x = (26 ± 16)/6 → x = 42/6 = 7 or x = 10/6 = 5/3. The quadratic opens upwards, so inequality holds between the roots: 5/3 < x < 7.
(c) 两边平方消去模，注意均非负：(x+1)² > 4(x-3)²。展开得 x²+2x+1 > 4x² -24x +36，移项得 0 > 3x² -26x +35，即 3x² -26x +35 < 0。判别式 256，根为 x=7 或 x=5/3。二次函数开口向上，解集为 5/3 < x < 7。
7. Proof by Induction | 数学归纳法证明
Prove by induction that for all positive integers n, Σ (r=1 to n) r(r!) = (n+1)! - 1.
用数学归纳法证明对所有正整数 n，Σ (r=1 到 n) r(r!) = (n+1)! - 1。
Base case: n=1, LHS = 1×(1!) = 1×1 = 1. RHS = (1+1)! - 1 = 2! - 1 = 2 - 1 = 1. True. Inductive step: assume true for n = k, so Σ r(r!) = (k+1)! - 1. Then for n = k+1, Σ from r=1 to k+1 = Σ to k + (k+1)((k+1)!) = [(k+1)! - 1] + (k+1)(k+1)! = (k+1)! [1 + (k+1)] - 1 = (k+1)! (k+2) - 1 = (k+2)! 1. This matches the formula with n = k+1. Hence by induction the statement holds for all n ∈ ℕ.
奠基：n=1，左边 = 1×1! = 1，右边 = (2)! - 1 = 2 - 1 = 1，成立。归纳假设：设 n=k 时成立，即 Σ r(r!) = (k+1)! - 1。则 n=k+1 时，总和 = Σ 至 k 项 + (k+1)(k+1)! = [(k+1)! - 1] + (k+1)(k+1)! = (k+1)! [1 + (k+1)] - 1 = (k+1)!(k+2) - 1 = (k+2)! - 1。正是 n=k+1 时的公式。由数学归纳法，命题对所有正整数成立。
A common mistake is forgetting to add the new term correctly or misapplying the factorial identity. Always show the target expression clearly.
常见错误是未正确添加新项或误用阶乘恒等式。务必清晰呈现目标表达式。
8. Mixed Problem-Solving Strategies | 混合问题求解策略
nverse function f⁻¹(x) and state its domain. Then sketch both curves on the same axes and explain the symmetry.
考虑一道典型的代数与图像混合题：函数 f(x) = (2x+1)/(x-3), x ≠ 3。求反函数 f⁻¹(x) 并写出定义域。然后在同一坐标系下画出两条曲线并解释对称性。
(x-2), x ≠ 2. The domain of f⁻¹ is the range of f: since f has horizontal asymptote y=2, range is all reals except 2.
令 y = (2x+1)/(x-3)，反解 x：y(x-3) = 2x+1 → xy - 3y = 2x+1 → xy-2x = 3y+1 → x(y-2) = 3y+1 → x = (3y+1)/(y-2)。因此 f⁻¹(x) = (3x+1)/(x-2)，x ≠ 2。f⁻¹ 的定义域是 f 的值域：f 的水平渐近线为 y=2，故值域为除去 2 的全体实数。
graphs are reflections in the line y = x. This symmetry confirms the inverse relationship.
作图：f(x) 有铅直渐近线 x=3，水平渐近线 y=2。反函数有铅直渐近线 x=2，水平渐近线 y=3。两者关于直线 y=x 对称，验证了反函数关系。
9. Typical Mark Scheme Insights | 典型评分标准解析
, when solving a matrix multiplication to find a transformation image, clearly write down the multiplication steps rather than just the final coordinates. If a question asks for the inverse of a 2×2 matrix, writing the formula and substituting correctly can secure M1 even if arithmetic slips later.
考官通常对正确的解题框架给方法分，对最终答案给准确分，对清晰的表述给表达分。例如，求变换像点时，写出矩阵乘法步骤而不仅是最终坐标。若题目求 2×2 矩阵的逆，写出公式并正确代入即可得到 M1 方法分，哪怕后续计算有小错。
In proof questions, stating the base case, inductive hypothesis, and inductive step explicitly is essential. Missing the base case often costs a mark. For inequalities, a clear sign table or critical value analysis is expected; just writing the solution without reasoning may not receive full credit.
在证明题中，明确写出奠基、归纳假设和归纳步骤至关重要。漏掉奠基常会失分。对于不等式，要求有清晰的符号表或临界值分析；仅写出答案而无推理过程可能无法得满分。
Always match the exact command words: 'Find' expects a computation, 'Show that' expects a verification, and 'Hence or otherwise' indicates you can use previous results to shorten work.
始终注意指令词：'Find' 要求计算，'Show that' 要求验证，'Hence or otherwise' 则提示可用之前的结果简化过程。
