在阅读解答之前,请在限时条件下独立完成每一道题。这会帮助你发现薄弱环节并增强考场耐力。
1. Algebraic Proof | 代数证明
Question: Prove that the sum of an even integer and an odd integer is always odd.
题目:证明一个偶数与一个奇数之和总是一个奇数。
Let the even integer be 2n and the odd integer be 2m + 1, where n and m are integers.
设偶数为 2n,奇数为 2m + 1,其中 n 和 m 是整数。
Their sum is 2n + (2m + 1) = 2(n + m) + 1. Since n + m is an integer, 2(n + m) + 1 is one more than a multiple of 2, so it is odd. The statement is therefore proven.
它们的和为 2n + (2m + 1) = 2(n + m) + 1。由于 n + m 是整数,2(n + m) + 1 比 2 的倍数多 1,因此它是奇数。命题得证。
Exam tip: In proof questions, always define your variables clearly and justify each algebraic step. Marks are often awarded for a clear logical structure.
考试提示:在证明题中,务必清晰定义变量,并说明每一步代数变形的依据。阅卷常按清晰的逻辑结构给分。
2. Quadratic Inequalities | 二次不等式
Question: Solve the inequality x² − 5x + 6 > 0.
题目:解不等式 x² − 5x + 6 > 0。
First, factorise the quadratic expression:
首先对二次表达式进行因式分解:
x² − 5x + 6 = (x − 2)(x − 3)
The critical values are x = 2 and x = 3. These divide the real line into three intervals: x < 2, 2 < x < 3 and x > 3.
临界值为 x = 2 和 x = 3。这两点将实数轴划分为三个区间:x < 2、2 < x < 3 和 x > 3。
- For x < 2, both factors are negative, so the product is positive.
- 当 x < 2 时,两个因式均为负,乘积为正。
- For 2 < x < 3, the factors have opposite signs, so the product is negative.
- 当 2 < x < 3 时,两个因式符号相反,乘积为负。
- For x > 3, both factors are positive, so the product is positive.
- 当 x > 3 时,两个因式均为正,乘积为正。
x < 2 或 x > 3
Exam tip: Sketching the parabola y = x² − 5x + 6 is the quickest way to see the solution region. The graph is a ‘smile’ curve crossing the x-axis at 2 and 3.
考试提示:画出抛物线 y = x² − 5x + 6 是确定解区间最快的方法。该图像是开口向上的曲线,与 x 轴交于 2 和 3 两点。
3. Coordinate Geometry: Circle | 坐标几何:圆
Question: The point A(3, 4) lies on a circle with centre C(1, 2). Find the equation of the circle.
题目:点 A(3, 4) 位于圆心为 C(1, 2) 的圆上。求该圆的方程。
The radius r is the distance from the centre C to the point A:
半径 r 为圆心 C 到点 A 的距离:
r = √[(3 − 1)² + (4 − 2)²] = √(4 + 4) = √8
The equation of a circle with centre (a, b) and radius r is (x − a)² + (y − b)² = r². Substituting a = 1, b = 2 and r² = 8:
圆心为 (a, b)、半径为 r 的圆方程为 (x − a)² + (y − b)² = r²。代入 a = 1、b = 2 和 r² = 8:
(x − 1)² + (y − 2)² = 8
Exam tip: If the centre is the midpoint of the diameter, first find the midpoint to obtain the centre, then use the distance formula to find the radius.
