1. Quadratic Equations and Inequalities | 二次方程与不等式
The solution of a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 can be found using the quadratic formula: x = (–b ± √(b² – 4ac)) / 2a. The discriminant Δ = b² – 4ac determines the nature of the roots: if Δ > 0 there are two distinct real roots; if Δ = 0 there is one repeated real root; if Δ < 0 the roots are complex and occur as a conjugate pair.
二次方程 ax² + bx + c = 0 的解可以通过求根公式 x = (–b ± √(b² – 4ac)) / 2a 求得。判别式 Δ = b² – 4ac 决定了根的性质:若 Δ > 0,有两个不等实根;若 Δ = 0,有一个重根;若 Δ < 0,则根为共轭复数。
When solving quadratic inequalities such as ax² + bx + c > 0, first find the critical values by solving the corresponding equation, then sketch the graph or use a sign table to determine the intervals where the inequality holds. Remember that multiplying or dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality sign.
解二次不等式如 ax² + bx + c > 0 时,先解对应方程求出临界值,再画出草图或使用符号表确定满足不等式的区间。注意乘除负数时要改变不等号方向。
2. Functions and Transformations | 函数与变换
A function f maps each input x to exactly one output f(x). The domain is the set of possible inputs, and the range is the set of possible outputs. Composite functions such as fg(x) = f(g(x)) are evaluated by applying g first, then f. The inverse function f⁻¹(x) exists only if f is one-to-one, and its graph is a reflection of y = f(x) in the line y = x.
函数 f 将每个输入 x 唯一地映射到一个输出 f(x)。定义域是可能输入的集合,值域是可能输出的集合。复合函数如 fg(x) = f(g(x)) 是先作用 g 再作用 f。反函数 f⁻¹(x) 仅当 f 为单射时才存在,其图像是 y = f(x) 关于直线 y = x 的反射。
Transformations of graphs involve translations, stretches, and reflections. For a function y = f(x): y = f(x) + a translates the graph a units upwards; y = f(x + a) translates it –a units horizontally; y = a f(x) stretches vertically by factor a; y = f(ax) stretches horizontally by factor 1/a; y = –f(x) reflects in the x-axis; y = f(–x) reflects in the y-axis.
图像的变换包括平移、伸缩和对称。对函数 y = f(x):y = f(x) + a 将图像向上平移 a 个单位;y = f(x + a) 向左平移 a 个单位;y = a f(x) 垂直伸缩 a 倍;y = f(ax) 水平伸缩 1/a 倍;y = –f(x) 关于 x 轴对称;y = f(–x) 关于 y 轴对称。
3. Coordinate Geometry: Lines and Circles | 坐标几何:直线与圆
The gradient of a straight line through (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is m = (y₂ – y₁) / (x₂ – x₁). The equation of a line can be expressed as y – y₁ = m(x – x₁) or in the general form ax + by + c = 0. Parallel lines have equal gradients; perpendicular lines have gradients m₁ × m₂ = –1.
过点 (x₁, y₁) 和 (x₂, y₂) 的直线斜率为 m = (y₂ – y₁) / (x₂ – x₁)。直线方程可写为点斜式 y – y₁ = m(x – x₁) 或一般式 ax + by + c = 0。平行线斜率相等;垂直线斜率满足 m₁ × m₂ = –1。
The equation of a circle with centre (a, b) and radius r is (x – a)² + (y – b)² = r². To find intersections between a line and a circle, substitute the line equation into the circle to form a quadratic and examine the discriminant: two intersections if Δ > 0, tangent if Δ = 0, and no intersection if Δ < 0.
以 (a, b) 为圆心、半径为 r 的圆的方程为 (x – a)² + (y – b)² = r²。求直线与圆的交点时,将直线方程代入圆方程得到二次方程,利用判别式判断:Δ > 0 有两个交点,Δ = 0 相切,Δ < 0 不相交。
4. Sequences and Series: Arithmetic and Geometric | 数列与级数:等差与等比
An arithmetic sequence has a common difference d: the nth term is uₙ = a + (n – 1)d. The sum of the first n terms is Sₙ = n/2 [2a + (n – 1)d] or n/2 (a + l) where l is the last term. Arithmetic series are used in problems involving constant additive growth.
等差数列有公差 d,第 n 项为 uₙ = a + (n – 1)d。前 n 项和 Sₙ = n/2 [2a + (n – 1)d] 或 n/2 (a + l),其中 l 是末项。等差数列常用于恒定增量增长的问题。
A geometric sequence has a common ratio r: the nth term is uₙ = arⁿ⁻¹. The sum of the first n terms is Sₙ = a(1 – rⁿ) / (1 – r) for r ≠ 1. An infinite geometric series converges to a/(1 – r) when |r| < 1. Applications include exponential growth and decay models.
等比数列有公比 r,第 n 项为 uₙ = arⁿ⁻¹。前 n 项和 Sₙ = a(1 – rⁿ) / (1 – r)(r ≠ 1)。当 |r| < 1 时,无穷等比级数收敛于 a/(1 – r)。应用包括指数增长和衰减模型。
5. Trigonometry: Ratios and Identities | 三角学:比值与恒等式
In a right-angled triangle, sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse, cos θ = adjacent/hypotenuse, tan θ = opposite/adjacent. For any angle, these are defined using the unit circle. Exact values for 30°, 45°, and 60° must be memorised: sin 30° = ½, sin 45° = 1/√2, sin 60° = √3/2; similarly for cos and tan.
在直角三角形中,sin θ = 对边/斜边,cos θ = 邻边/斜边,tan θ = 对边/邻边。任意角的三角函数通过单位圆定义。必须熟记 30°、45° 和 60° 的精确值:sin 30° = ½,sin 45° = 1/√2,sin 60° = √3/2;cos 和 tan 同理。
Key identities include tan θ = sin θ / cos θ and the Pythagorean identity sin² θ + cos² θ = 1. The graphs of y = sin x, y = cos x, and y = tan x have distinct periods and asymptotes; transformations such as y = a sin(bx + c) + d involve amplitude |a|, period 2π/|b|, phase shift –c/b, and vertical shift d.
重要恒等式包括 tan θ = sin θ / cos θ 和 sin² θ + cos² θ = 1。 y = sin x、y = cos x 和 y = tan x 的图像有不同的周期和渐近线;如 y = a sin(bx + c) + d 形式的变换涉及振幅 |a|、周期 2π/|b|、相移 –c/b 和垂直位移 d。
The sine and cosine rules extend trigonometry to non-right-angled triangles: a / sin A = b / sin B = c / sin C for the sine rule; a² = b² + c² – 2bc cos A for the cosine rule. The area formula ½ ab sin C is also essential.
正弦定理和余弦定理将三角学推广到非直角三角形:正弦定理 a / sin A = b / sin B = c / sin C;余弦定理 a² = b² + c² – 2bc cos A。面积公式 ½ ab sin C 也必不可少。
6. Exponential and Logarithmic Functions | 指数与对数函数
The function f(x) = aˣ (a > 0, a ≠ 1) models exponential growth (a > 1) or decay (0 < a < 1). The natural exponential function is y = eˣ, where e ≈ 2.71828. Its inverse is the natural logarithm y = ln x, defined for x > 0. The graphs of y = eˣ and y = ln x are reflections in y = x.
函数 f(x) = aˣ(a > 0, a ≠ 1)描述指数增长(a > 1)或衰减(0 < a < 1)。自然指数函数为 y = eˣ,其中 e ≈ 2.71828。其反函数是自然对数 y = ln x,定义域 x > 0。y = eˣ 与 y = ln x 的图像关于 y = x 对称。
Logarithm laws are crucial for equation solving: logₐ (xy) = logₐ x + logₐ y; logₐ (x/y) = logₐ x – logₐ y; logₐ xⁿ = n logₐ x. The change of base formula is logₐ b = logₓ b / logₓ a. When solving exponential equations, take logs on both sides and apply the power rule.
对数运算法则是解方程的关键:logₐ (xy) = logₐ x + logₐ y;logₐ (x/y) = logₐ x – logₐ y;logₐ xⁿ = n logₐ x。换底公式为 logₐ b = logₓ b / logₓ a。解指数方程时,两边取对数并应用幂法则。
7. Differentiation: Techniques and Applications | 微分:技巧与应用
Differentiation gives the gradient of a curve. The derivative of xⁿ is n xⁿ⁻¹ for any real n. The sum rule and constant multiple rule apply: d/dx [f(x) ± g(x)] = f'(x) ± g'(x). For composite functions, the chain rule dy/dx = dy/du × du/dx is essential. The product rule: d/dx(uv) = u’v + uv’; quotient rule: d/dx(u/v) = (u’v – uv’) / v².
微分求曲线的斜率。xⁿ 的导数为 n xⁿ⁻¹,对任意实数 n 成立。使用加法法则和常数倍法则:d/dx [f(x) ± g(x)] = f'(x) ± g'(x)。复合函数利用链式法则 dy/dx = dy/du × du/dx。乘积法则:d/dx(uv) = u’v + uv’;商法则:d/dx(u/v) = (u’v – uv’) / v²。
At a stationary point, f'(x) = 0. The second derivative f”(x) determines the nature: if f”(x) > 0 it is a local minimum; if f”(x) < 0 it is a local maximum; if f''(x) = 0 further investigation is needed. Differentiation is used to find equations of tangents and normals, and to solve optimisation problems.
在驻点处,f'(x) = 0。二阶导数 f”(x) 决定驻点性质:若 f”(x) > 0 为极小值点;若 f”(x) < 0 为极大值点;若 f''(x) = 0 需进一步判断。微分用于求切线和法线方程,以及解决最优化问题。
8. Integration: Basics and Definite Integrals | 积分:基础与定积分
Integration is the reverse process of differentiation. The indefinite integral of xⁿ is (xⁿ⁺¹)/(n+1) + C for n ≠ –1. The integral of 1/x is ln|x| + C. Integrals of sums and constant multiples follow directly, and recognising derivatives of standard functions (eˣ, sin x, cos x) is required.
积分是微分的逆过程。xⁿ 的不定积分为 (xⁿ⁺¹)/(n+1) + C(n ≠ –1)。1/x 的积分是 ln|x| + C。和的积分及常数倍可直积,需牢记标准函数(eˣ, sin x, cos x)的导数以用于反求积分。
The definite integral ∫ₐᵇ f(x) dx represents the signed area between the curve y = f(x) and the x-axis from x = a to x = b. Evaluate it by finding an antiderivative F(x) and computing F(b) – F(a). When the graph crosses the x-axis, split the integral to ensure positive and negative areas are treated correctly. The area between two curves is found by integrating the difference f(x) – g(x).
定积分 ∫ₐᵇ f(x) dx 表示曲线 y = f(x) 与 x 轴在区间 [a, b] 上的带符号面积。计算方法是先求原函数 F(x),再算 F(b) – F(a)。若图像穿过 x 轴,需分段积分以正确处理正负面积。两曲线间的面积通过积分差 f(x) – g(x) 求得。
