1. Complex Numbers and de Moivre’s Theorem | 复数与棣莫弗定理
De Moivre’s theorem states that for any integer n, (cos θ + i sin θ)ⁿ = cos(nθ) + i sin(nθ).
棣莫弗定理指出，对于任意整数n，有 (cos θ + i sin θ)ⁿ = cos(nθ) + i sin(nθ)。
This theorem is extremely useful for finding powers and roots of complex numbers. To compute zⁿ where z = r(cos θ + i sin θ), we simply write zⁿ = rⁿ (cos(nθ) + i sin(nθ)).
该定理对于计算复数的幂和方根极为有用。若 z = r(cos θ + i sin θ)，则 zⁿ = rⁿ (cos(nθ) + i sin(nθ))。
When finding the nth roots of a complex number w, we express w in polar form w = ρ(cos φ + i sin φ) and then the n distinct roots are given by zₖ = ρ^(1/n) [ cos((φ + 2πk)/n) + i sin((φ + 2πk)/n) ], for k = 0, 1, …, n−1.
求复数w的n次方根时，先将其写成极坐标形式 w = ρ(cos φ + i sin φ)，则n个不同根为 zₖ = ρ^(1/n) [ cos((φ + 2πk)/n) + i sin((φ + 2πk)/n) ]，k = 0, 1, …, n−1。
These roots are equally spaced around a circle of radius ρ^(1/n) in the complex plane. A typical exam question might ask you to find all cube roots of 8i and plot them.
这些根在复平面上均匀分布在半径为ρ^(1/n)的圆周上。典型考题可能要求求出8i的所有立方根并在复平面中标出。
2. Loci in the Complex Plane | 复平面上的轨迹
A locus in the complex plane is a set of points z that satisfy a given condition, such as |z − a| = r, which describes a circle with centre a and radius r.
复平面上的轨迹是满足给定条件的点z的集合，例如 |z − a| = r 表示以a为圆心、r为半径的圆。
The condition |z − a| = |z − b| represents the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining points a and b.
条件 |z − a| = |z − b| 表示连接点a和b的线段的垂直平分线。
Another common locus is arg(z − a) = θ, which gives a half-line starting at point a (excluding a itself) making an angle θ with the positive real axis.
另一种常见轨迹是 arg(z − a) = θ，它表示从点a出发（不含点a）且与正实轴夹角为θ的射线。
You may also need to find the intersection of two loci, for instance the points satisfying both |z| = 5 and arg(z) = π/4. Always sketch a diagram to visualise the region or intersection.
你可能还需要找出两条轨迹的交点，例如同时满足 |z| = 5 和 arg(z) = π/4 的点。务必画草图来直观显示区域或交点。
3. Matrices, Determinants and Inverses | 矩阵、行列式与逆矩阵
For a 2 × 2 matrix M = [a b; c d], the determinant is det(M) = ad − bc, and the inverse M⁻¹ exists only if det(M) ≠ 0, given by M⁻¹ = (1/det(M)) [d −b; −c a].
对于2×2矩阵 M = [a b; c d]，行列式为 det(M) = ad − bc，逆矩阵M⁻¹存在仅当 det(M) ≠ 0，且公式为 M⁻¹ = (1/det(M)) [d −b; −c a]。
For a 3 × 3 matrix, the determinant can be expanded using the first row and cofactors. The inverse can be found via the adjugate matrix: M⁻¹ = (1/det(M)) adj(M).
对于3×3矩阵，可沿第一行用余子式展开计算行列式。逆矩阵可通过伴随矩阵求得：M⁻¹ = (1/det(M)) adj(M)。
You must be able to use the inverse to solve a system of linear equations: AX = B implies X = A⁻¹B, provided the matrix of coefficients A is non-singular.
你必须能够用逆矩阵解线性方程组：AX = B 可推出 X = A⁻¹B，前提是系数矩阵A非奇异。
Determinants also help check whether three vectors are linearly independent; if the matrix formed by their components has a non-zero determinant, the vectors span ℝ³.
行列式还可用于检验三个向量是否线性无关；若由向量分量组成的矩阵的行列式非零，则这些向量张成ℝ³空间。
4. Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors | 特征值与特征向量
For a square matrix A, an eigenvector v and its corresponding eigenvalue λ satisfy the equation Av = λv, with v ≠ 0. The eigenvalues are found by solving the characteristic equation det(A − λI) = 0.
对于方阵A，特征向量v及其对应的特征值λ满足方程 Av = λv，且 v ≠ 0。特征值通过求解特征方程 det(A − λI) = 0 得到。
Once eigenvalues are known, eigenvectors are obtained by substituting each λ back into (A − λI)v = 0 and solving the homogeneous system.
一旦求得特征值，将每个λ代回 (A − λI)v = 0 并求解齐次线性方程组即可得出特征向量。
Matrices can be diagonalised if they have a full set of linearly independent eigenvectors. If P is the matrix of eigenvectors and D the diagonal matrix of eigenvalues, then A = PDP⁻¹.
若矩阵拥有一组完整线性无关的特征向量，则它可对角化。若P为特征向量矩阵，D为特征值对角阵，则有 A = PDP⁻¹。
This diagonalisation is extremely powerful for computing powers of a matrix: Aⁿ = PDⁿP⁻¹. Typical questions may ask you to verify the Cayley-Hamilton theorem or use eigenvalues to find Aⁿ.
对角化在计算矩阵幂时极为有用：Aⁿ = PDⁿP⁻¹。常见考题可能要求验证凯莱-哈密顿定理，或利用特征值求Aⁿ。
5. Vectors: Scalar and Vector Products | 向量：点积与叉积
The scalar product of vectors a and b is a ⋅ b = |a||b| cos θ, and in component form, for a = (a₁, a₂, a₃) and b = (b₁, b₂, b₃), a ⋅ b = a₁b₁ + a₂b₂ + a₃b₃.
向量a和b的点积为 a ⋅ b = |a||b| cos θ，在分量形式下，若 a = (a₁, a₂, a₃)，b = (b₁, b₂, b₃)，则 a ⋅ b = a₁b₁ + a₂b₂ + a₃b₃。
The vector product a × b yields a vector perpendicular to both a and b, with magnitude |a||b| sin θ. In component form, a × b = (a₂b₃ − a₃b₂, a₃b₁ − a₁b₃, a₁b₂ − a₂b₁).
叉积 a × b 得到垂直于a和b的向量，大小为 |a||b| sin θ。分量形式为 a × b = (a₂b₃ − a₃b₂, a₃b₁ − a₁b₃, a₁b₂ − a₂b₁)。
The scalar triple product a ⋅ (b × c) gives the volume of the parallelepiped formed by vectors a, b, c. It can be computed as the determinant of the 3×3 matrix with rows a, b, c.
标量三重积 a ⋅ (b × c) 表示由向量a, b, c构成的平行六面体的体积，可通过以a, b, c为行的3×3矩阵的行列式计算。
Remember that a ⋅ (b × c) = b ⋅ (c × a) = c ⋅ (a × b), and the sign changes if any two vectors are swapped. This property often appears in exam simplifications.
请记住 a ⋅ (b × c) = b ⋅ (c × a) = c ⋅ (a × b)，且任意两向量交换则变号。这个性质常在考题化简中出现。
6. Equations of Planes and Lines in 3D | 三维空间中的平面与直线方程
A line in 3D can be written in vector form as r = a + λ d, where a is a point on the line and d is a direction vector. In parametric form: x = a₁ + λd₁, y = a₂ + λd₂, z = a₃ + λd₃.
三维直线可用向量形式表示为 r = a + λ d，其中a为直线上一点，d为方向向量。参数形式：x = a₁ + λd₁, y = a₂ + λd₂, z = a₃ + λd₃。
A plane can be expressed as r ⋅ n = p, where n is a normal vector to the plane and p is the constant given by a ⋅ n for any point a on the plane. Alternatively, the Cartesian equation is n₁x + n₂y + n₃z = d.
平面可表示为 r ⋅ n = p，其中n为平面法向量，p为平面上任一点a满足的 a ⋅ n 常数。对应的笛卡尔方程为 n₁x + n₂y + n₃z = d。
To find the intersection of a line and a plane, substitute the parametric line equation into the plane equation and solve for λ. Then substitute back to find the coordinates.
求直线与平面的交点时，将直线参数方程代入平面方程解出λ，再代回求得坐标。
The angle between two planes equals the angle between their normals. The angle between a line and a plane is the complement of the angle between the line direction and the normal.
两平面的夹角等于它们法向量之间的夹角。直线与平面的夹角是直线方向与法向量夹角的余角。
7. First-Order Differential Equations | 一阶微分方程
A first-order linear differential equation has the form dy/dx + P(x)y = Q(x). The integrating factor is I(x) = e^(∫ P(x) dx), and the general solution is y I(x) = ∫ I(x)Q(x) dx + C.
一阶线性微分方程的形式为 dy/dx + P(x)y = Q(x)。积分因子为 I(x) = e^(∫ P(x) dx)，通解为 y I(x) = ∫ I(x)Q(x) dx + C。
For separable equations, rearrange to h(y) dy = g(x) dx and integrate both sides. Initial conditions are then used to find the particular solution.
对于可分离变量的方程，整理成 h(y) dy = g(x) dx 后两边积分。再利用初始条件求出特解。
You may also encounter homogeneous equations where y = vx substitution transforms the equation into a separable one in v and x.
你还可能遇到齐次方程，通过代换 y = vx 将其转化为关于v和x的可分离变量方程。
Always check if an equation is exact: of the form M(x,y) dx + N(x,y) dy = 0 with ∂M/∂y = ∂N/∂x. If so, the solution is found by partial integration.
务必检查方程是否为恰当方程：形式为 M(x,y) dx + N(x,y) dy = 0 且 ∂M/∂y = ∂N/∂x。若是，则可通过偏积分求解。
8. Second-Order Differential Equations | 二阶微分方程
A linear second-order homogeneous ODE with constant coefficients is written as a d²y/dx² + b dy/dx + c y = 0. The auxiliary equation is a m² + b m + c = 0, with roots m₁ and m₂.
常系数线性二阶齐次常微分方程写作 a d²y/dx² + b dy/dx + c y = 0。辅助方程为 a m² + b m + c = 0，根为m₁和m₂。
If the roots are real and distinct, the complementary function is y = C₁ e^(m₁x) + C₂ e^(m₂x). If repeated, y = (C₁ + C₂x) e^(mx). If complex, m = p ± iq, the solution is y = e^(px)(A cos qx + B sin qx).
若根为不等实根，补函数为 y = C₁ e^(m₁x) + C₂ e^(m₂x)；重根时为 y = (C₁ + C₂x) e^(mx)；若为复根 m = p ± iq，解为 y = e^(px)(A cos qx + B sin qx)。
For the non-homogeneous equation a d²y/dx² + b dy/dx + c y = f(x), find a particular integral (PI) using a trial function based on the form of f(x): polynomial, exponential, or trigonometric.
对于非齐次方程 a d²y/dx² + b dy/dx + c y = f(x)，需根据f(x)的形式（多项式、指数或三角函数）试用特解函数求特积分(PI)。
The general solution is the sum of the complementary function and the particular integral: y = CF + PI. Never forget to apply boundary conditions when given.
通解为补函数与特积分之和：y = CF + PI。当给出边界条件时切勿忘记代入求解。
9. Maclaurin and Taylor Series | 麦克劳林与泰勒级数
The Maclaurin series expansion of a function f(x) about x = 0 is given by f(x) = f(0) + f ′(0) x + f ″(0) x²/2! + f ′′′(0) x³/3! + …
函数f(x)在x=0处的麦克劳林级数展开为 f(x) = f(0) + f ′(0) x + f ″(0) x²/2! + f ′′′(0) x³/3! + …
The Taylor series expansion about x = a is f(x) = f(a) + f ′(a)(x − a) + f ″(a)(x − a)²/2! + … . It is a powerful tool for approximating functions near a point.
函数在x=a处的泰勒级数展开为 f(x) = f(a) + f ′(a)(x − a) + f ″(a)(x − a)²/2! + … 。这是在某点附近逼近函数的强大工具。
Standard Maclaurin series you must memorise include eˣ = 1 + x + x²/2! + … , sin x = x − x³/3! + … , cos x = 1 − x²/2! + … , and ln(1+x) = x − x²/2 + x³/3 − … (valid for −1 < x ≤ 1).
必须熟记的标准麦克劳林级数有 eˣ = 1 + x + x²/2! + …，sin x = x − x³/3! + …，cos x = 1 − x²/2! + …，以及 ln(1+x) = x − x²/2 + x³/3 − …（适用范围 −1 < x ≤ 1）。
To find series expansions for composite functions, substitute into known series or differentiate repeatedly. Be careful with the interval of convergence, especially for series involving fractions.
求复合函数的级数展开时，可代入已知级数或反复求导。务必注意收敛区间，特别是含有分式的级数。
10. Polar Coordinates and Hyperbolic Functions | 极坐标与双曲函数
In polar coordinates, a curve is defined by r = f(θ). The area enclosed by a polar curve from θ = α to θ = β is A = ½ ∫[α,β] r² dθ.
在极坐标系中，曲线由 r = f(θ) 定义。由θ = α 到 θ = β 所围图形面积为 A = ½ ∫[α,β] r² dθ。
To find tangents at the pole, set r = 0 and solve for θ, which gives the lines of direction that are tangent to the curve at the origin.
求极点的切线时，令 r = 0 解出θ，所得射线即为曲线在原点处的切线方向。
Hyperbolic functions are defined as sinh x = (eˣ − e⁻ˣ)/2, cosh x = (eˣ + e⁻ˣ)/2, and tanh x = sinh x / cosh x. They satisfy identities similar to trigonometric ones, such as cosh²x − sinh²x = 1.
双曲函数定义为 sinh x = (eˣ − e⁻ˣ)/2, cosh x = (eˣ + e⁻ˣ)/2, tanh x = sinh x / cosh x。它们满足类似三角恒等式的性质，如 cosh²x − sinh²x = 1。
Derivatives are also analogous: d/dx(sinh x) = cosh x, d/dx(cosh x) = sinh x. The inverse hyperbolic functions can be expressed using natural logarithms, e.g., arsinh x = ln(x + √(x² + 1)).
导数也类似：d/dx(sinh x) = cosh x，d/dx(cosh x) = sinh x。反双曲函数可用自然对数表示，如 arsinh x = ln(x + √(x² + 1))。
Questions often require integration using hyperbolic substitutions or solving equations involving hyperbolic functions, so fluency with their graphs and identities is essential.
考题常要求利用双曲代换积分或解含双曲函数的方程，因此熟练掌握其图像和恒等式至关重要。
